> no commercial use Why? It's not like they did the hard work. It's disgraceful that this kind of commons enclosure has been allowed in the first place.

It doesn't. The rule for TeX is that single-character tokens don't need braces. I assume this is just an artefact of their particular muscle memory. You can test it here, if you like: https://www.mathjax.org/#demo

Does it count if you have to pay for a service for something to be made accessible? I'm sure a blind person nowadays could hire an assistant to use their computer for them, but that would not be reasonable.

Based on what? You seem to be assuming that the only way to be deficient in something is to have a junk diet. It is quite easy to be deficient in just one nutrient.

You think blocking the wind from hitting your hand slows the car down?

This has nothing to do with it being your boss. It is a simple politeness rule, which applies in all situations: never ever get emotional at work. Disagreeing is fine, arguing is fine, but you have to keep a level head at all times or you w

Only to the extent that all waged employment is basically slavery (since healthcare is even less critical than food, water and housing).

That article does not even normalise for population, so I have little faith in their ability to correct for less obvious mistakes.

If the CLI tool needs to access arbitrary data from your home directory, then it is you. There is no security boundary between you and another user with full access to everything you own. If you want to share specific directories, you can j

They didn't attribute any fault to these patterns, just said the pattern itself is concerning. It is bad for the EU to be mistreated by the US!

What is this supposed to be? The title is gibberish.

Does this federate with anything, like Matrix or XMPP? If it is locked into a single software, I fear nobody will ever switch to it (I have too many chat apps already!)

oh, of course. How did I not think of that!

If you can't actually substantiate these claims (they probably can't prove it, even if it's true) then this could be a very expensive claim to make.

I don't know where you are, and I'm not an expert, but a job requiring specific technology typically means it is your employer's responsibility to provide that technology. So if they signed a contract that mandates you have

I've been trying emacs for a while. People keep saying it's self-discovering and I have no idea what they mean. Am I missing part of the manual? I google stuff when I don't understand, like any other piece of software. I&#x27

Huh? You don't have to come up with an interpretation. The brief says it "looks a lot like today's MRIs but at nearly a hundred times the speed". They don't explain why having a hundred times as many MRI images woul

I always forget this, because it makes no sense. Fair enough!

I know, but neither GET nor QUERY may have side effects.

by tempfile 4mo ago
Depends whether your form submission should expect side effects or not. Most forms submissions have side effects. If the effect is truly idempotent, wouldn't PUT be a better verb? That is also supposed to be idempotent.

Public-facing LLMs are a horrible liability.

It is not exactly an outlandish suggestion that this may happen.

What are you smoking? The median house price in London is 500k. At 750k you can afford 77% of houses and at a million you are in the top 10%. 50k per year is also a preposterously high expenditure. Rent will be your leading expense by proba

by tempfile 4mo ago
That is an extremely high salary, and very far from the minimum required to buy, even on your own. A dual £350k income is truly astonishing. You could buy most houses in London in cash after saving for 5 years.

What are you talking about? Why is "liking" something mutually exclusive with conveying information? I like lots of things precisely because they convey information!

Not sure what you're getting at here. Would you be happier if he was trading on the arguments he's making, introducing an incentive to lie?
