It's really annoying when it does that. I wish there was an alternate mode you could toggle it to when pushing back on its output. One where it's tuned to not assume you're the authority so it can come back with a response th

Why do you guess it's an iPhone? I switched to an iPhone because my OnePlus phone failed to ring or play alarms due to a constantly crashing and restarting media indexer service (I could only tell this is what was happening from the lo

You're reading them wrong and I'm not sure what you find clever about the wording. The bar was a president that doesn't start pointless wars. That's a low bar. Biden cleared said low bar by not starting pointless wars.

Do you also complain about GNU coreutils divergences from the original Unix utilities despite having the same names?

You can also get rid of both of them very easily with O&O Shutup 10++ (or any of many other GUIs or scripts designed for the same purpose of decrapifying Windows). I toggled off Copilot and Onedrive and haven't seen either in all t

I recently installed Fedora with KDE and ran into behavior that would have confused me if it wasn't for the setup of my home. Because the problem I was having didn't manifest directly on my PC at all, but rather on my AV receiver!

When there's people taking the complaints as attacks rather than feedback on how to improve, it's no wonder we keep seeing the same complaints. I just don't get it myself. When users complain about the software I've rele

Even just using them for prototyping is a big gain. While they do have monetary cost to run, they massively reduce the time cost of experimenting. They can also waste a lot of time if you end up over-reliant on them, but that's where e

I really hope they don't kill off uv or turn it into some way to sell OpenAI services. But I suspect that's exactly what's going to happen :(

I couldn't imagine wanting to hire someone who doesn't use LLMs for coding unless they are bringing something very special to the table. It accelerates many coding tasks significantly. But you have to know the limitations to use t

I left an Arch install sitting for a few months and came back and had trouble getting the updates to properly install. Seems the advice around it is basically just don't go that long without updating.

It's never been a great argument. Even non-atomic Linux distros have you reboot after updates. It's just the safest way to ensure that everything is running with the updated packages. You're kind of in an untested state if yo

If this is true then the reason that a console would be better than a custom PC is that it would also be designed to work better for that purpose. Turning on the device when the controller turns on and sending CEC commands are two huge thin

What do you mean if you can do age you can do identity? If age is self-reported that's not true. Or if you need strong validation, ZKPs are possible where it is also not true.

Same here. Wired headphones never lasted anywhere near as long for me as wireless ones. Any with inline controls were especially prone to failure.

Theoretically yes, but in practice the wages of people already not making much have not tracked inflation and there's no reason to believe that they will now. That means any inflation is also a tax on them.

Which Mario ones are you thinking of? Because for the only ones I know of with electronic character, you just place them over special tiles they can read to select how they will react.

People who don't have English as their first language often seem to underestimate how good their English actually is. I wonder if it's because their reference point is formal English rather than the much more forgiving English we

This is what I need to be sold on magit over. Magit just feels slower (and definitely is slower to start if you're not already in emacs) and less intuitive.

Microsoft already has all their business data in the form of handing document storage and emails. Trusting another of their services to also not use that data for Microsoft's own purposes is reasonable.

What's the danger? It can see the schemas to help it generate the queries but it can't run anything on its own. Also you have to give the application credentials to an AI provider for the feature to work. So, you can just not do t

This is the way I like to do it. I know bloating the logs too much can be a problem, but it's even worse if you're lacking information to reconstruct what happened when there ends up being a problem. And only providing that detail

Sprocs are how I handle complex queries rather than embedding them in our server applications. It's definitely saved me from running into problems like this. And it comes with another advantage of giving DBAs more control to manage per

This is not at all just an LLM thing. I've been working with C# and MS SQL Server for many years and never even considered this could be happening when I use Dapper. There's likely code I have deployed running suboptimally because

And then people would complain about Firefox being bloated with all these built-in extensions. And then if you don't pre-install them people will complain about needing to add all of these extra extensions.

I mean that's not really a good answer because you need to ask why they are sending a spreadsheet back and forth. Like yeah using a shared spreadsheet saves them having to email back and forth, but it doesn't help formalize the pr

As people have pointed out in other threads, you don't even need access to these services to cause problems. As long as the AI can send any bytes out, it can leak information. Like you may think of an HTTP GET as read-only, but you can

I didn't disagree with that? "It certainly sounds like something an app from a big Chinese company might do" Doesn't mean I want to blindly trust a random source about it though.
