Absolute nonsense. Apart from the fact that password length is necessarily finite due to memory and time constraints, passwords aren't stored as clear text. You will get hash collisions, because the number of unique hashes is very much

The people already doing this work today already do exactly that. There's no goalpost shifting here - it's l'art pour l'art at its finest. It'd be introducing an agent where no additional agent agent is required in

Same issue on Windows - doesn't seem to be OS-related, but a general problem. The sliders and the zoom are basically unusable.

No need. Wrong type of solar event. You might be able to see auroras, though. I saw some a couple of hours ago.

How does this relate to the need for deterministic and consistent output?

by qayxc 9mo ago
How so? RAG is just a mechanism for querying external data sources. I don't see any need for non-determinism there.

Not to be disrespectful, but OP's code is also a website that already exists literally thousands of times and could be done in any spreadsheet program without any programming at all...

Ironically, all I see in the website is easily replicable with existing spreadsheet apps. No programming needed.

Newton was a hypnotherapist. I'm sorry to say this, but hypnosis is precisely the kind of altering a person's state of mind to make it highly susceptible to both deliberate and unintentional suggestion. This has been well document

Hard disagree. The difference in performance is not something you'll notice if you actually use these cards. In AI benchmarks, the RTX 3090 beats the RTX 4080 SUPER, despite the latter having native BF16 support. 736GiB/s (4080)

I would consider this if someone was able to demonstrate a way to distinguish these phenomena from altered states of mind (i.e. hallucinations). We know and can demonstrate that the human psyche can easily be manipulated in various ways (ps

Time and space aren't well defined, but current models indeed put a discrete limit on both: Planck-Length and Planck-Time (~1.9×10^−43s and ~5.7×10^−35m respectively). Below these limits, physical descriptions of the world lose meaning
