Sounds like you might need uBlock Origin to protect yourself from the French government.

It doesn't come with many positives. It steals energy from later in the day for now. Potentially leaving you an over stimulated wreck. And the level at which you notice is higher than it should be for you to dial in the optimum amount.

I didn't suggest anyone should. Merely that when a state acts in bad faith, their claims should be ignored, and the worst can be assumed.

loss? It's been English usage since Chaucer. The "rule" that it shouldn't be singular came from the same people that changed English spellings because they wanted to show off their knowledge of Latin and Greek. All those

The existence of the patent system makes me never want to invent anything ever. Having to deal with that thing? That would be like working in Academia. Wouldn't wish it on anyone.

I don't know anyone serious at this point who knows about crypto that wouldn't present a negative view of crypto for any business model.

It was a valid rhetorical comparison about their business model. The parent wasn't able to read it properly, and just knee jerked their response.

They lasted long enough for there to be no real competitors.

There was already a paper on Transformer models and their inability to redefine variables. They had real problems with swapping variables and would forget that it had happened.

Must be difficult to work in a company that can't reallocate resources.

A thing that is also not novel. People have done search for optimisations for at least the past decade.

> * Ask the model to adopt a persona This is bad advice. In my experience asking it to take on a persona can muddy the text that it writes as that persona. I have told it to be a biographer persona, for it to write a biography that then

> users ignore stuff if they can, including important warnings etc. They sure do. Especially modal dialogs. Everybody has been trained to hit okay automatically, because they're so prevalent on things that don't matter. Good ap

I would look things up, write my code and then if I had to look at it again it was like looking at code I had never seen before.

Huh. I wonder what it was.

As an AI language model, the only risk I am allowed to tell you about is the risk of the model being so useless people use the competition instead.

Sigils are why I gave up learning PERL. Everything I learned had a half life of 10 minutes. I haven't programmed C in a decade, I still remember most of it.

I always wondered why you couldn't get all your subpoenas passed through an intermediary who is instructed to post about them before reading them.

GNOME is a lost cause. Once they started shadowing keybindings from readline they failed at UX.

You mean like a web application where the modal edit window blocks the information on the original page that I would want to refer to, so I have to close the window, copy it in to a text editor, and bring back the modal window? Sounds wonde

Just because your mother called you special doesn't make your experiences valid.

And it's wrong about all of them. Alerts don't need to stop the world. Confirmation dialogs block examining the things that you want to confirm. And forms for creating anything do not need to block access to the rest of the page.

Every Modal window has me close it so I can access and refer to content on the page that it's blocking. There's one kind of modality needed for computers, and it's the power switch.

It's already annoying that it wastes tokens on "I'm sorry, but as an AI language model...". This shit needs to die. I just want completions from a language model, log probs of the tokens, and more control over the genera

This feels very similar to the "think about the children" lines when people want to keep their privacy online. It's stupidly specific, and if you have to twist this far to find an example, I think you have nothing.
