Haha, I still vividly remember how they were trying to make me believe that GDPR is going to a big hammer because it will finally make executives liable for breaches. I silently laughed back then. I am still laughing. I should probably cl

I've had too many incidents to fix / work around since "stable" interface names were introduced. Sorry that you are offended. But the fact of the matter is, most of these issues would not have hit me if we'd just

The "stable" interface naming scheme is a scam. And I have proof. Test upgraded a VM today, from bookworm to trixie. And guess what. Everything worked, except after reboot the network interface was unconfigured? Guess what.

Thats a lame excuse. And a strange attempt on deification. The predecessor is no reason for the current head to slack off.

People are going to HATE me for this, but I genuinely think: This feels like beating a dead horse... I had my Perl phase. I even wrote the first piece of code for my employer in Perl. Well, it was a CGI script, so that was kind of natur

It stores the text version of every page you visited via the proxy, and lets you do semantic search on all of them. You can retrieve the stored text in the search interface, much like the "Cached" link on old Google worked. The

Try reducing temperature. The default of 1.0 is sometimes to "creative". Setting it to 0.5 or somesuch should reduce events like you described.

I can't talk about the specific case mentioned here, but... Morphines are indeed used in palliative medicine to unofficially end the suffering. This is a fact that is not talked about much, because it is highly illegal. I had a chat

Having children is subsidized where I come from. To a point where getting pregnant is a strategy to secure a form of UBI for certain low-income people. I think the reasons for lowered birth rates are much more hedonistic and less related

The pizza guy had 30 years to conquer the internet. They could have hired a coder to do their online order website. 12 years later, they could have hired a coder to create an ordering app. Most of them didn't, because they weren&#x2

"completely out of touch" is definitely an exaggregationg. Besides, as if competition would really increase quality. Where I dwell, we have around 3 active delivery services. Only 1 of them has an app with useable UX, icnluding

Just because Americans have an obesity problem doesn't make every food vendor a drug dealer. Come on, get real. Basically everything that is being sold can be abused by the user. Does that mean every vendor of anything is potentiall

That is called inflation. Almost everything doubled its price in the last 20 years. My rent, for instance...

That reminds me of a question I have since I saw my first LLM hallucination: How much do people think hallucination/confabulation can be attributed to trolling and sarcasm having slipped into the training data? Is it possible we could

It didn't turn out to be true though. "True back then" seems like a weird way to phrase "wrong".

You explained it in the last sentence. Some people are just more anthropocentric then others. IOW, some people get all emotional if the topic is the future of humanity, and others couldn't care less. Thats a fact you will have to ac
