Ah, two megapixel-PNG screenshots of console text (one hidpi too!), and of some IDE showing also text (plus a lot of empty space)... Great great job, everyone.

Geezus, with the short CV in your profile, you couldn't tell an LLM to decode "filename=utf-8"CV%5F%5F%5FHanna%5FTr%C3%A4ff%5F.pdf"? That's not "Bouveng". Anyway searching for the email sender's name,

OK, but if the solution is to brute-force them, there's probably a need to choose which files to focus on. Of course there are other content-types, e.g. searching for "Content-Type: image/jpeg" gets hits as well. But onl

I doubt the PDF would be very interesting. There are enough clues in the human-readable parts: it's an invite to a benefit event in New York (filename calls it DBC12) that's scheduled on December 10, 2012, 8pm... Good old-fashione

God, it's so dumb. And these 2 menues have 2 different looks, because I guess for Windows 11 they reimplemented it in whatever fancy fucking UI framework they decided to make, but they didn't complete the implementation so they st

The article goes from philosophical (what AI will do to society) to jargony blowhard and then even deeper look (I think. I flicked my thumb past several screens of text), and back out again. Come on author, learn to write properly. Or tell

Ah, Germans and moaning. The math isn't clear... but it seems all these sentences miss the phrase "over 5 years". I.e. earn 5 x 50K over 5 years, pay 58K extra taxes (in total) over those 5 years. > The overall amount of t

On Windows 10 there's a way to change the license to "Enterprise" (in the shady corner of GitHub), and then you can apply policy to not have it show shit.

I love and hate it at the same time, just like my browser tabs hoarding, it means I currently have 218 open documents on Notepad++ (and 96 browser tabs). I might not even need them anymore, but it's always "I'll look at them.

I agree with the Pope's message, but I wonder if religious leaders worry/are motivated to speak by the fact that that AI might "steal" their audience. I wonder what e.g. the Ayatollah of Iran would say about the use of A

Just because you talked to one (or many) who chose the job freely, doesn't mean the ones in SE Asia are the same... The captive ones do the scamming via text anyway, and they'd get beaten or worse if they don't do as wanted.

Instead he writes Buzzfeed style: a sentence per paragraph, and then smushes several paragraphs into one. (The idea being, a paragraph usually introduces a new thought.)

I found the article hard to read. I turned on reader mode. I still found it hard to read. Each sentence is very short. My organic CPU spins trying to figure out how each sentence connects to the next. Each sentence feels more like a paragra

I'm also for education for AI awareness. A big point on teaching kids about AI should also be a lot about how unreliable they can be. I had a discussion with a recruiter on Friday, and I said I guess the issue with AI vs human is, if y

Does the Spotlight calculator still expect you to respect the locale and ignores decimal points as if they don't exist, if you enter them not locale-compliant? 10 years ago I tried to add 640.9 + 2.73 on a German-locale Mac (Germany us
