Yes, but as a pedestrian, do you want to bet your life on that?

Maybe, instead of trying to scare (scar?) children you should just teach them to make eye contact with the driver so you are sure they have seen you before you put yourself in the path of their car? How much of our "safety" cultur

You don't need to look at other engineering jobs, just look at software engineers out side the US. We make decent money compared to the local market, but we've never had the royal treatment that US devs seem to get.

Yes, that is a hard problem that society in general doesn't like dealing with, but the solution doesn't involve letting kids be abused. That's the point I'm making. Don't let kids get abused. I honestly didn't

What? Your argument is men should be used to violence, so it is ok to hit boys, but women should not be used to violence, so we shouldn't hit girls? We hit boys, so it is ok to hit boys, but we don't hit girls, so it isn't ok

Collective punishment is a war crime, I don't know why people think it would be effective on children? All it does is breed resistance and resentment, as you say.

So other kids should just be their victims? How is that better? We should do whatever we can to help kids with problems, but that doesn't include victimising people. Remove the bullies and deal with them elsewhere.

But to bring it back to the topic at hand, the people doing this are forced to by the BLM, so not very Anarchistic.

My theory is we will end up in a similar spot to hiring people. You can look at a CV (benchmarks) but you won't know for sure until you've worked with them for six months. We as an industry cannot determine if one software enginee

Yup, we are somewhere between "my model can beat up your model" and "you wouldn't know my model, it lives in Canada". This is the world we live in.

For this use case it matters a lot less if LLMs can solve it. As long as it costs you more to solve the captcha than it costs your adversary to serve it to you, it is still (some what) effective.

Maybe, if you're to ashamed to risk your real name being linked to something you say, you shouldn't say it? No every opinion needs to be heard, not every thought needs sharing. If you are embarrassed by what you type, then why do

The US is not the only legal jurisdiction these services are being sold in.

So? 4.7.1, 4.7.2, etc. makes sense for versioning system prompts.

Yeah, that really feels like a choice that should be user preference.

We aren't talking about API costs or number of tokens consumed, we are talking about number of tokens in a monthly subscription.

You and I have no way of knowing that.

We find it incredibly hard to articulate what separates a productive and effective engineer from a below average one. We can't objectively measure engineer's effectiveness, why would we thing we could measure LLMs cosplaying as en

I mean, a one time fee, maybe even per mini-game, doesn't seem gross?

The people that did the Great War series (at least some of them, I believe there was a little bit of a falling out) went on to do a WWII version on the World War II channel: https://youtube.com/@worldwartwo They are current

Yeah, I do wonder if there are any ADA implications with that?

Is your veil weighted? It is not equally likely you will benefit from advertising as it is likely you will be harmed by advertising under a veil of ignorance scenario.

Note: the proposal being discussed is to ban advertising, not marketing.

Although... 4D chess move, if a state starts prosecution against Musk, get the DoJ to do it first and then pardon him after the fact. Double jeopardy would stop the state from continuing with the prosecution, and the pardon means no consequ

But now Bing would have a chance of becoming the default search engine of the most used browser in the world. That's the difference.

The people running the demo called it an expert. Which just demonstrates the complete lack of respect for the domain they are trampling on.

If you are willing to offer an extended warranty for X years, then that's pretty good evidence that I should be covered by the CGA for at least that long.
