Are you a lawyer that has tested this in court, or is this just what you want the reality to be? As someone with lots of open source code out there that has likely been used as LLM training data, I'm very sympathetic to this point of

Because if you don't publish in academia, you might as well be dead. And the terms for most places to publish are similar. It's a racket.

Sure, that's fine. But some people like to play around and hack just for the sake of hacking. If you don't like that, that's cool, no issue with that. But some people do. (FWIW, I have the same attitude/preference as

And in many regions, you'll be adding significantly to your electricity bill to run it. It's not just the initial outlay for the hardware.

As in, the post is a blog, which is often literally someone's diary. Also, if you don't like a submission, flag it and move on. Commenting that you don't like it doesn't add anything to the discussion.

Or the important question: what happens if the model fails this test? Presumably then it gets banned; otherwise what's the point of the test if no action is taken if it fails? More self-serving trash from the US AI companies, disguise

Sure, I agree that we should be polite and respectful to random people, cops included, but that judge decided that it was illegal to be disrespectful to a cop, which is pretty fucked up.

It's reverse in the sense that you've been given the numerical hints, and instead of clearing the mines, you need to place them. That feels pretty "reverse" to me.

Sure, but then it's easier, and you can just keep clicking around by trial and error without thinking about it, which is a boring way to play.

Willful ignorance is not an excuse. If you buy into an ETF, you are delegating responsibility to the people who run the ETF (or the people who maintain the index that the ETF tracks), and you've decided you're ok with that, and a

How true is that these days? Sure, old-school pension funds are managed without any input from the future pensioners, but most 401ks (and similar) these days have a variety of investment options that the employee can choose from. Yes, the

I think they mean that they actually do need Postgres for some of their projects, and it's easier to just use Postgres for everything, than to use Postgres for some things and SQLite for others.

No, it's not. They're saying "as someone with a small amount of insider experience, even I can see how everything is super conservative and no one wants to innovate".

I don't think we should set our expectations based on an extreme outlier. qmail is special, and we can't expect most software to get to its level of security/safety. Put another way: if you have to rely on programmer skill o

I doubt it. I am a big fan of Rust's memory safety, but it's not just memory safety that draws me to Rust. Having a strong, featureful type system is also a big plus for me, and even if Fil-C could someday magically compile an

I think there's very plausible a middle ground too: Google does want to remove these features for business reasons, and is using the real problem of social engineering as an excuse.

Your argument is of course absurd, but in general, I think it is a reasonable position to take. The grandmother of someone I know was social engineered into installing a malicious app and changing developer settings on a phone, and lost qu

Sometimes you can get an equivalent result in a fraction of the time using a less capable model. The problem is of course knowing ahead of time that the faster model can give you the same result.

I don't get this "inconsiderate" thing. The seats recline. They're designed to do so. They're allowed to do so. Airlines allow you to recline. Yes, if you're reclining during meal service, you're a di

Not baffling at all. When I'm in an economy seat with typical seat pitch, someone reclining in front of me makes it difficult to impossible to use a laptop on the tray table. The recline angle of the seat means you have to angle the

I'm 5'9", and rarely have a problem with the person in front of my reclining, but I can absolutely see how it could create comfort issues for taller people. It is more difficult to use a laptop on a tray table if the person

Sure, and if you want a better experience on a plane, you pay more. That seems reasonable.

Whenever a pillow is included on a flight, I always stuff it behind my lower back. I can't remember the last time I actually used a pillow for its intended purpose when not flying in a lie-flat seat.

Whenever I see kids traveling in first class, it grosses me out a little. When I was a kid, we didn't have the money to fly at all; it was just road trips for us, when we could manage it. I really think parents putting their kids in f

I don't get it either, but my guess is that the narrower plane induces claustrophobia at higher rates. If you're in a widebody, you can look to your left or right (depending on where you are), and see a decent amount of plane on

I don't think it's that. It's just what the mass market wants. For economy-class passengers, the overwhelmingly first-place concern is the price of the ticket. People accept shit service, shit food, random seat assignments

Potato, potahto. Your comment is indistinguishable from a "both sides are the same" argument.
