The link you posted doesn't back up the statement that "No American used "delve" before ChatGPT 3.5". Instead it states that _few_ people used it in _biomedical papers_. I've seen it (and metaphors using the ot

I think relying on the vocabulary to indicate AI is pointless (unless they're actually using words that AI made up). There's a reason they use words such as those you've pointed out: because they're words, and their trai

No it's not. It's just the Post Office trying to save money by being slower. This quote from the article describes it (note the last sentence in particular): "Potential Delays: Because most postmarks are applied at processing

Wouldn't 0402 be 4x larger (if comparing lengths) or 16x larger (if comparing areas), not 2.5x? Edit: Nevermind, I was wrong. I see now that the sizes don't actually directly correspond to the number codes! 01005 is 0.4mm x 0.2mm

Yeah, I agree. The size and price are attractive and they are pretty capable, but the UI is a bit more complex than ideal. It either needs better labeling of functions/combos (which is hard to do with the size) or more buttons/kno

Do you mean plugging a 4k monitor in while gaming, or just in general? If just in general, something's going very wrong since I _only_ use my M1 (not m1 max, not m1 pro) macbook plugged into a 4k monitor (except when traveling), and it

I don't think that you understand the point of the delayed public disclosure. If it wasn't a threat, then there'd be no need to delay -- it would be publicly disclosed immediately.

I've played much more graphically complex games on my M1 MacBook Pro with 16GB ram and _not_ had that issue. I think the makers/porters of Inscryption are to blame for your issue, not Apple.

The fact that details of the issue _will_ be disclosed publicly is an implicit threat. Sure it's not an explicit threat, but it's definitely an implicit threat. So the demand, too, is implicit: fix this before we disclose publicly

Yeah, I think Minecraft definitely still would have been a hit without any modding. Though it might not have become the absolute juggernaut that it is now without it -- it's hard to say for sure.

Why rely on someone to intuit what you could just simply state explicitly? That sounds like you're just asking for trouble if someone doesn't think/intuit in exactly the same way that you do.

It shouldn't be an either/or situation. Good documentation should include both the API spec _and_ examples. I believe the person you're replying to was complaining about documentation that's _only_ examples since it seem
