A normal transformer model doesn't have online learning [0] and only "acts" when prompted. So you have this vast trained model that is basically in cold storage and each discussion starts from the same "starting point&qu

I visited it on a 4 year old macbook pro and my fan started to go crazy because of the bg animation. UI was sluggish as well.

I get that it's about context. But to me this is meaningless, why should any company be able to restrict the usage of common words in a business context? As a sidenote, Lo-fi has definitely been used in the context of photography befor

I mean at least Meta chose incredibly original filter names, such as Juno, the ancient Roman goddess, a word in use for over 2000 years. Clarendon, the wikipedia page at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarendon lists ap

Many of the focused niche discussions around the globe still happen in forums (and subreddits).

I was 'web socialized' in the 90's. IRC, web forums, and so on. Before that we had BBS. This is nothing new. And nothing prevents a major player to enter the fediverse btw.

But people do pay for it and set up their own instances, or pool their resources and support larger instances - and maybe that's better than having our attention monetized by opaque algorithms 'for free'.

Haven't we learned anything from the Trump era? People like you continue to give people like Musk the benefit of the doubt despite massive public evidence that we are long past the benefit of doubt stage.

It's really more about whether the decision makers at that level care about this kind of stuff or not.

Great read, maybe one day I'll have the room for one as well. I play on a keyboard at the moment. Next to Bechstein and the usual suspects, Steingraeber is of interest to me.

What you say is of dubious value (or even negative value). I imagine Twitter has code reviews like most other places anyways. And even if were not of zero value, it's not what they were told to do anyways. Printing out your code of the

A slightly exaggerated point of view: but in a way, the problem with Scrum and Agile is that they have been appropriated by non-tech people because tech is where the money is at. If it wasn't Agile, it would probably be something else.

This is about standards. Laws for thee and not for me? It's just particularly hypocritical that the same companies that will sue anyone for violating their copyright have no issue violating copyright themselves.

Two observations, first, the significance with the Sumerians, especially in context of this article, is the writing (among other things), not the fact that they told stories. Secondly, I think it's a fair assumption that there were ora
