I know some people didn't like this change. I think it works well to help make it clear and obvious to reactive vs non reaction changes.

There is a bit of research and effort into a head transplants. I wonder if and when that is successful to see how it impacts the individual. Possibly having memories of the body or changing personality.

I'm not sure if others have it. But notepad++ had a pretty neat way to mark lines from search and do various multiline editing that I've always enjoyed. I enjoyed it's transient new file tab without needing to specify a file

Covid was a catalyst for bigger changes to go potentially unchallenged and opportunity for extra greed. 1 company dared do a thing and no one batted eye. Then 2nd. Domino's of greed and fake excuse on supposed inflation. But it was ju

Keep in mind that most of star trek was following the federation and the like. I've always considered them mostly the idealized versions of society or also workaholics and people who genuinely enjoying working as their past time. I fee

I remember talking with a dev and they had posted a tutorial or how to on a thing on twitter. It was nearly impossible to find. Search didn't work. No good direct link or easy way to find it. I ultimately spent 2 hours scrolling past (

I do like the idea. But which amount do you show when virtual currencies have different values depending on how much you acquire at a time? Or should it always show worst 1:1 equivalence?

The Google cache was so useful when it was an easy click alternative to the main link. Especially with all the dynamic changes or dead links that happened. The loss of useful features imo helped reduce my reliance on Google search.

If they copy then do things to help take down the initial thing. They've done more than just copy. And that's what I believe many places did. You get your copy. Then send out fake dmca noticed or buy out places. Then sell your cop

Lots of people I know use llms for different reasons and more importantly in different ways. For me it feels like it enables me to express myself even better. I use 1 for basically a super charged intellisense or clever auto complete. Finis

That was before hoarding and building questionable businesses around them became a thing. I remember it being really easy to find textbooks, solution manuals, and related pdf and other stuff as late as 2008 far easier than 6-8 years later.

I dont know if I'm in the minority but I really dislike link previews the vast majority of the time. They take up too much space and offer to little value. In discord I often x out of the preview and I know lots of others who do too. M

You've missed the point of that explanation. It could have been 10M spread over 10 excel files with that much. The whole reason they made that edit as people were telling them to do the 20 copy and pastes by hand.

Maybe they want to explore or iterate or have control over the models in ways different than what OpenAI is doing. Also they only own like 49% openai. So they don't have full control and would have interest in having a full control mod

Computers are good at things we find hard. And are bad at things we find easy. We can't multiply a million numbers together in a second which is hard for us. But doing the tasks for laundry is easy for us but hard for computers. Which
