And how does that affects those OF models who actually type out their own interactions? The problem with chat farms and AI alike is the deception, and destroying for those who are genuine. Tricking a human to interact with a bot is imo in t

If you tune up your detector that high it’s very likely you’ll get false positives. I’ve met Americans with fairly strong “accents” that aren’t necessarily a dialect either, just a different way of speaking. It could also be a mix with pare

I have followed a lot of these projects because I have clients with persistent state and synced state too, as well as realtime needs. Anyway, this passes the smell test imo. It’s solid engineering and built from first principles, reusing th

> “where else could the computation have happened, if it wasn’t being farmed out to parallel universes?” Right. I’m definitely a layman here but as a CS generalist this rings out as narrow-minded to me, biased towards the way we designed

Maybe it’s the stacks I’m using, but I’ve always had incremental happen with language-native tooling like `go` or `cargo`. So for me at least, having lazy eval features like that would be an unnecessary increase in scope and complexity. Wit

The issue is an @gmail.com address is owned by Google, not you. Not only do you lose your contacts’ ability to reach you, but accounts tend to use email as a last-resort primary identifier. If you lose your ability to receive verification c

What about marketing? I don’t mean necessarily traditional ads but more how to get the word out if you have a good product? I’ve personally find it easy to reach “tech enthusiasts” but much harder to penetrate towards normies who would real

Right but that sucks. So CC companies/banks are simply shifting risk from one side of the transaction to the other. Sure, as a consumer you don’t have to worry because you’ll get your money back. But if the merchant has to worry and re

What type of fraud exactly? You mean like stolen CCs? It feels very medieval as a financial trust system if every little vendor can’t trust payments, even when you pay up front ? Like this is in some ways worse than cold hard cash. And the

Too much entropy. Any 128bit+ thingy with global uniqueness, whether it’s a hash or guid or public key, doesn’t matter. It’s not ever going to be memorizable for mortals. You can generate novelty nonces for the first X chars, but you will e

Call it what you will. The point about the handshake is that TCP + http headers need comes before the upgrade to use the raw tcp streams. This is part of the benchmark and while it exists also in the real world it can be misleading because

Deterministic within a single image yes, but not within arbitrary subsections. Classical filters aren’t trying to reconstruct something resembling “other images it’s seen before”. Makes a difference both in theory and practice.

The newtype pattern is a special case of type composition which is incredibly useful, has low complexity, and if done right almost no boilerplate overhead. It's much dumber and easier to reason about than type-acrobatics with generics,

Electron is not a rendering engine. It’s an application bundler, which itself bundles Chromium and NodeJS. This project uses native web views, like Tauri. They wrote that they might provide the option of bundling your own engine, ie like El
