My husband and I play Wingspan together when I’m traveling for work. He likes board games in general, so it’s something familiar for both of us. And Wingspan is complex enough to reward skill, but also random enough that the outcome isn’t g

The system prompt is there if you use a chat app like ChatGTP. The system prompt is one of the things that controls the behavior of the app. If you use an LLM endpoint in Azure OpenAI, no system prompt is in effect unless you provide one.

A lot of it gets converted to water vapor in the evaporative coolers, so it doesn't flow out -- it becomes humidity or clouds. The coolers do also produce waste water, but with all the minerals left behind after evaporation it's n

That’s how it works for us here in Australia. We have 16Wh of solar and 40KWh of battery, and pay (and receive) wholesale rates for electricity. During the say electricity prices are very low or negative, and we run off the solar and charge

I noticed the other day that ChatGPT will now cite Grokipedia as a source (and presumably uses search there to ground results). That makes me trust ChatGPT even less than before.

Part of that cost is decommissioning and removing the existing tower-based system. But PG&E made the call years ago to use that fire-prone implementation to boost profits, and now we are paying for that short-sighted decision.

One thing that's hard to understand from the outside is that almost nobody actually pays those mind-blowing $200K hospital bills. US hospitals charge on a sliding scale based on the applicants' families' ability to pay. (I do

Airline safety is a special case I think — THE NTSB does incredible work, and their recommendations are always designed to improve total safety, not just reduce the likelihood of a specific failure. But I can think of lots of examples whe

Great link, thanks for sharing. This point below stood out to me — put another way, “fixing” a system in response to an incident to make it safer might actually be making it less safe. >>> Views of ‘cause’ limit the effectiveness

iPad OS 26 is just as bad, if not worse. It's the Windows ME of tablet OS's: ugly, near-unusable, and riddled with bugs. Just one example: I was excited by the idea of having two apps on screen at the same time: there are two I li

And yet somehow this article fails to mention that with the budget cuts to LIGO one of its two antennas is likely to shut down soon. Without two antennas this research is impossible.

I’m affected by this, and as pissed at Google about it as anyone, but the headline is overblown. The old Nest devices continue to function as thermostats, and the on-device features like scheduling still work. But I need the cloud-based fea
