Alt+hyphen or alt+shift+hyphen is an endash/emdash. You may not have been aware of it because it's so subtle, but many people (including myself) used emdashes long before 2022 (edit: apparently only on Mac, see reply below)

The models are noticeably different — for example, o1 and o3 have reasoning, and some users (eg. me) want to tell the model when to use reasoning, and when not. As to why they don't automatically detect when reasoning could be appropri

Eh, very few fraudsters start with a plan to commit fraud. More often than not, it's legitimate intent, but then thoughts happen along the lines of "I could make my ten years of work much more effective by just being a tiny little

That's always been true. We went through PDAs, 3D TVs, smart cities, cyberspace, but some of those actually did become our iPhones. "Nothing ever happens" is just hindsight/survivorship bias.

I think that's an unfair comparison. If the IBM Simon disappeared in 1994, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have cared. If search engines disappeared in 1992, you'd have felt the same. Also, (what later became) AWS probably

That's not how the economy works though — the GDP is correlated, not causated, with economic strength. What drives the economy in the end is positive-sum value creation, not trade in itself (although without any market failures, trade

Sure, it could be, you can define "preference" as basically anything, but it just loses its meaning if you do that. I think most people would think "56% prefer this product" means "when well-informed, 56% of users w
