For anyone who's a parent, their image model won't make ANY change to an image containing a child AT ALL, REGARDLESS OF REQUEST. Consent, harassment between teens, etc. are the cited reasons, I guess.

Yep, go ePub. Have been doing that for years now, after converting my entire Amazon purchase library to ePub thanks to an old loophole. Apple figured the correct model out years ago with iTunes Music.

So is vaccine resistance. Doesn't mean it's correct, or empirically-based.

I work with Claude Max for hours a day. I see a lot of speculation by people who do not. I think it's going to be much harder to get from "slightly smarter than the vast majority of people but with occasional examples of complete

Are these still accidents where the driver was not paying attention, though?

I'm not saying it would be trivial, but I bet that once you figure out a workable pattern, you could replicate that on other games. One idea that might be relatively easy to implement- Slow the framerate down to something super slow in

As far as LLM-produced correctness goes, it all comes down to the controls that have been put in place (how valid the tests are, does it have a microbenchmark suite, does it have memory leak detection, etc.)

Interestingly, I think that similar types of arguments are made against "agentic coding" If you don't pay constant attention, you will never notice when it slips in a bug or security issue

I would prefer to understand why a paused or backgrounded game still manages to consume a ton of CPU or GPU Like, you're still just churning away at the main game loop while literally nothing else is happening except for you waiting

I once wrote an algorithm to generate a regex to find all matches from a given word with a levenshtein distance of 1 (I did not permute it beyond that though). Can link it if someone is curious.

Good. I think most of us know that their design failure here was a lack of backwards compatibility. But at least it's getting adopted.

You lost me at Python. I cannot wait until all the tooling in Python that is the only reason most people use Python is trivially rewritten by LLM’s in other languages

> user friendly hot keys I see everyone complaining about this but as a new tmux user as of a few months ago, I had an LLM assist me with configuring it how I wished and it did a bang-up job. Stuff like using “-“ to split horizontal and

Tried it. It’s certainly prettier and has a few unique features but a number of corner cases I depend on in tmux simply don’t work so back I went Also, can’t really stand the name.

That's fine, but I'm never joining Bluesky. Possibly the most disgusting echo chamber I've ever encountered in social media.

I recently came up with a novel arbitrary-integer-length binary encoding called BLIP (binary large integer prefix), which also begat a novel binary container format (which of course can be of arbitrarily large size) https://githu

That's an interesting wrinkle. How would you model the potential bias in order to neutralize it though? Or would enough measurements simply cancel out any bias (or be very likely to)?

Could the Kalman Filter idea be applied to human witnesses to an event, where you model the person as a faulty sensor?

OK, let's take guns out of the equation then. Would you say that what stops bad guys using knives and fists is good guys with knives and fists? Why or why not? What makes guns different? (The gun debate is my favorite one because there

Are there any better than Superwhisper? Because I haven't found any.

How does this compare with Superwhisper, which is otherwise excellent but not cheap?

So basically it's like Terrorism or Genociding, where if it's against the team you are rooting for, it is that, and if it's not against your in-group it's just War? I'd rather "doxxing" just mean "de-
