You still can very much die in quicksand but the problem is that you get like your foot stuck in a way that you just can't escape and then you just die out there like that. But the idea that you sink down and drowned is some kind of we

Since this is an anecdote, it is unfalsifiable, and can't support these softened claims, either. The endless possibilities of incorrect contexts inferred from simply incomplete or adjacent contexts would prevent the ability to manage i

The fact that adding in information to support a query at inference time has no guarantee to be limited by that information. Besides my 15 years of natural language processing experience, my first hand experience is non deterministic output

Oh, no I didn't mean to say regex or not, I meant regex over XML vs regex over a string. The first has the illusions everyone is bringing up that XML is not regular, but having clarity that it is ultimately a string is the correct set

I wish I could upvote this a bunch. It will only happen if people being to reflect on their gains at the hands of a specific vendor makes them beholden to that vendor. I know it is an idealism but I often think of statements like "sour

That reminds me of a complaint that I had with a visualization library that kept pushing the open source project to be tied into their hosting racket. I brought up how lots of security organizations at the time wouldn't understand how

Important to know the security tradeoffs of the Tailscale commercial product. At the very least people will learn about all the pieces.

I think this is a great perspective in my professional experience it was very common to be using multiple tools. ESRI for some things, GDAL for others, and then some hacks here and there like most complex analytical systems. Some of it vend

Weird people talking about small time creators wanting DRM I've never seen that... Usually they'd be hounding for any attention? I don't know why multiple accounts are seemingly independently bringing this up, but maybe it is

I'd also put Gish Gallop in there somewhere as well. Or "unfalsifiable" is also certainly in the neighborhood.

People that don't code think that something can do code 98% correct is surely better, without seeing the hard enforcement of a 2% error without manual intervention. I think all of the jokes about stupid computers and weird behavior of

This. Sorry you're getting down votes at this moment for speaking the truth, but there really is no excuse for anti society anti intellectual illiberalism from the world's literal biggest losers.

An ideal measurement would be to calculate your utility's water usage to kWh then to this, perhaps a token per gram measurement. Of course it would be small, but it should be calculable and then directly comparable to these models if w

We can't prove why people are being replaced, and the people who claimed to have replaced people with AI don't have a lot of good outcomes. Now there is some success but... it is bespoke to that environment often, so, your reasons

That's the secret, no. Just people to insulate the liability.

It will still exist just most of the managers will become a new class existing only for limiting liability.

Should probably note they allude to the public decency act, there is no such thing for now and hopefully for a while. I think this was meant metaphorically.

Yes yes given this why didn't it do better and isn't it embarrassing to have done it through statistical brute force and not intelligence.

It seems politically inconceivable to discuss advertisement network security, ethics, consolidation, negligence, etc etc. I cannot more strongly recommend running an ad blocker.
