Oh wow, just from the title I assumed it was talking about gachas (FGO/Genshin/etc), but no, the "apps" the article is talking about seem to be several orders of magnitudes worse ($100k+) than even gachas (where even ful

Oh wow... I'm surprised that's enough. When I was researching scraping protection bypass, you had to do some real crazy stuff with the browser instance + using residential IPs at a minimum...

Really dummy question: how do services like this work? As in, how do they bypass these paywalls? The obvious thing is to mock Googlebot, but site owners can check that the request isn't coming from a Google-published IP and see that it

I do try to make a positive impact, but in the "leave things better than when you first encountered it" sense - I see no reason to worry about, or even be concerned with, "greater" things like "a better world",

We've been using podman compose for semi-production purposes at our company and that's been our experience as well. It's just... it's really rough, there are a ton of "known" issues, and it's rather unreli

As someone else said, sounds like an interesting project to scrape, organize, and somehow "re-surface" that data in a much more accessible manner (how? I don't know; I've never done such a project before). Obviously it s

> completely insane right? Not universally, it all depends on how one values the use/enjoyment/value that they get out of the experience, and everybody values their time/enjoyment/convenience differently.

I think that no matter how people feel about the whole privacy/ad thing, it's an additional option... and I think everybody is better off having an additional option than not.

Absolutely. For me, I don't think I would use anything other than 1PW/Yubikey for 2FA codes. But not everyone uses such technologies, and a certain percentage of population is going to find the hurdle to adopt these technologies&#

> selling into higher education Just want to add another data point: Dartmouth was a relatively early adopter, and while a bit annoying, it chugged along just fine.

Right, I'm wondering that as well, because one could argue that 1 & 2 is a necessary condition but not an automatic trigger. Something needs to actually cause the crash, and it's not always obvious that just because there

This seems like yet another ERC-20 stablecoin with no special "quirks", from a quick reading. My question is, what is the reason for this to exist over existing stablecoins that have much broader acceptance and long history (for c

Looking at rest of his comments in this thread, I think it's pretty clear that while he's half-joking, he does seriously believe that I'm somehow turning people into "racists". Which is just... wat

I'm not sure why you're so keen on "proving" that I'm "turning" people into racists. You have a fixed conclusion that you have already made, and are grasping at straws to reach that conclusion. Really brin

They're usually being racists to blacks and eastern europeans; I'm Asian so I had no bearing in it.

Every time I catch an Uber in London, the drivers for some reason always end up massive racists.

In the paper, I was able to find this: > In addition to open-source models, we also compare Llama 2 70B results to closed-source models. As shown in Table 4, Llama 2 70B is close to GPT-3.5 (OpenAI, 2023) on MMLU and GSM8K, but there is
