Yes! Can confirm: I went to the doctor when I was very overweight (on the verge of obese BMI-wise) and he pulled this line. He was a nice guy. But, I couldn't get out of there fast enough. Why go to a doctor that won't even acknow

Ok, do rent next. Paying rent doesn't count towards your credit score (at least it didn't a decade ago when I was getting my mortgage). And it's a glaring signal of how the system isn't built for what it claims: evaluati

Yo, this installs npm packages at runtime. Very not cool IMO. You should disclose this prominently in the README. This is a nice project idea. But, you should use a Python WASM interpreter to run the PostgreSQL WASM.

I have yet to see a proposal that retains what I love about the status quo: conscientious error handling. The language’s status quo forces everyone to think about errors more deeply than in other languages and acknowledges that the error ca

Error handling is one of my favorite parts of Go. The haters can rip `if err != nil { return fmt.Errorf("error doing thing: %w", err) }` from my cold dead hands.

I think there's a really interesting opportunity for a synthesis of the classic NPC dialog menu and a fully freeform LLM character. Namely, the dialog would still be fixed, where there's a pre-defined flow of the conversation and

Thanks for the explanation! I'm learning and and think this would be a good next project for me to try, especially since I have a real world use case in mind with a similar amount of data available. In particular, I'm not very fam

Have you written anywhere in detail on how you gathered your dataset and trained the finetune? I have a few use cases that are like this, but I'm not sure where to start.

You're right that the power dynamic here is really bleak. But there are still some things an employee can do individually or in a group: - Coffee Badging: where you only come in for coffee in the morning and then leave - Buddy Badging:

GIMP is a load bearing name as well. Cheers on sticking to your guns. Prominent displays of deviance as a poison pill is truly one of the few ways subcultures have to resist mainstream exploitation.

Yes!! This is my preferred way to enable network printing and scanning. I've done this for about 5 years. I've always hated having printers on my network, because vendor software is absolutely terrible. Completely insecure and ope

Not only that, but he actively made it worse by protecting abusers. McCarrick, Rupnik, Zanchetta, and many more. It really makes me sick to see so many people speaking well of Pope Francis. He is an enabler and a vindictive hypocrite.

No, indeed I found a way to skip physics in high school (though this wasn't really why). But, I was interested in Biology, taking almost enough for a minor in it in college. I'm a self-taught dev now. And, that fits really well fo
