"Genuine" appears 50 times too. I think you're onto something.

Yeah NZ national news has been going on about this for a couple of weeks. They're trying to scare everyone by saying what an extreme El Nino we're in for this summer with such devastating consequences as (let's see here) warm

> If the "abuse" in scraping is the number of requests... limit the number of requests? Step one in doing this is identifying which requests are coming from the same agent. Guess what fingerprinting helps with.

A thread in which yet another American learns how ludicrously cheap the cost of living is in USA despite the constant neverending moaning. My power is USD$0.271/kWh and I'm nowhere near Ireland.

I don't know who this guy is but this is just a shitty way to interact with people. Presumably he's successful or we wouldn't be talking about him without any introduction, but I wouldn't hire this person to sweep the fl

Ever worked with Europeans? This is how they treat work. In their culture taking vacation and actually switching off is part of the job. I'm not making a value judgement but their approach to work is very different to what some of us a

So where are these mythical savings coming from? You're saying they have spent more per user therefore can charge each user less or something? I'm not following.

Valve switched existing games to Rubikon to avoid paying licensing fees for their former physics engine.

So not games.

Counter Strike 2 is a 14 year old game. DOTA2 is a 13 year old game. Yes I know Valve makes money selling games. They don't make games.

Valve doesn't make games. (within the margin of error).

> Interest in physical media has actually been on the upswing Sure it has. Just like how demand SD card slots and 3.5mm jacks on phones is on the upswing. If you only read tech forums.

I very much doubt a typical AAA game is bought new then resold 3 times on average. Very much doubt. And even if the used game market does cannibalise new games, they also generate a demand. Some gamers will pay full price knowing they can r

If that was easy to do then the entire class of prompt injection bugs wouldn't exist. It's actually very difficult. LLMs make no distinction between data and instructions, fundamentally.
