To be clear, I dont mind zoom using data from their service to train "their AI models", particularly where these are transparent and specific. I was more concerned about the wording, which implied they would give themselves the ri

He never said "I got hit by a bull" It could be the case that he crashed into a farm and killed a bull and now the farmer is about to kill him with a shotgun. Which according to the author is secondary information.

AGI is not a difficult "problem". It's a difficult "definition". Given very specific, practical, functional definitions, AGI is a breeze.

I don't avoid "news". I avoid so-called "mainstream" conglomerate-driven media. Subtle difference.

There's a certain sense of irony in the fact that the same people who don't see the point of gemini "when HTTP exists" and "when there's nothing stopping you from writing a simple no-frills html page" also

I mean, fair enough. Just because you're an immunologist doesn't mean you carry spare adrenaline, antihistamines, inhalers, and steroid infusions in your fanny pack at conventions. All they can do is call an ambulance. It's a

IIRC, Michael Feathers calls this "Scratch Refactoring" in his "Working effectively with Legacy Code" book from 2005. Excellent read even today.

Cash would have been a lot more useful if they didn't mandate "renewal" every 5-10 years. (which necessarily needs to happen via a bank, obviously).

Indeed. Which is why you should use the built-in parameter expansion provided by bash for easily removing a suffix, instead of an external program. The thing about spaces (and expansion more generally) as I understand it is this. At some po

p-values aren't problematic. How people use them is. Same with bayes factors. I've seen people claim "anything above 3 is significant". Incidentally, the theory behind p-values is actually beautiful, and p-values can gen

This article is obvious bait. It has to be. You choose to expand a variable and then complain about not wanting the expansion? Or about the behaviour of clearly documented special variables doing exactly what they're supposed to instea

Good article. It focuses on build times as the bottelneck, but actually for me most of the time that bottleneck is 2FA. By the time I've managed to sign in to my email to double check an instruction, I've already forgotten what I
