Presenting raw LLM output as your own writing in a human-to-human context is rude and antisocial, not to mention incredibly transparent.

Having used both, I personally prefer vimlike —nothing major, have just run into fewer issues.

Largely, yes. Arduino code runs on bare metal, and delays simply block execution so they should be accurate with some constant overhead.

Grow your OpenAI bill exponentially with this one easy trick! In all seriousness — looks nifty! Do you guys have any plans to bring suggestion latency down from what’s show in the demo?

The first place I ever saw that was here: https://en.uncyclopedia.co/wiki/C%2B%2B Whole article is worth reading, lots of good laughs in there!

I think the assertion is based on the fact that LLVM is written in C++. Doesn’t directly introduce a C++ dependency to the kernel, but it does introduce it to the toolchain.

Still in use academically too - we used it in my compilers class last year.

That was the most interesting part of the article for me. I don't understand how it can be faster, given that there's syscall translation going on. Is this more of a commentary on the quality of the `libc` available on Windows? Or

Replacing undefined behavior at the program-level with undefined behavior written and tested as part of the standard library, usually vendored and distributed in concert with the compiler, seems like an obvious net-positive to me.

Yes, you did I'm afraid -- this is a tool which is used to check for skimmers, not a preventative measure which is permanently installed. It only blocks the chip slot when an employee is ensuring a skimmer isn't installed on a par

We watched Moore's law hold fast for 50 years before it started to hit a logarithmic ceiling. Assuming a long-term outcome in either direction based purely on historical trends is nothing more than a shot in the dark.

No — that incident was due to a high pressure area (saturation diver living quarters) being opened to a low pressure area (the atmosphere at large), resulting in explosive decompression. The submarine in question is a low pressure area in a

I’ve heard that the continued presence of ashtrays isn’t a vestigial design feature so much as an intentional holdover, so that anyone who breaks the “no smoking” rule still has a safe place to put out their cigarette.

I only skimmed the piece itself, but the title of this article is in extremely bad taste -- makes me doubt that the author really intends to consider the pros and cons of AI research in good faith. Let me guess -- this is another alarmist t

Hah! I had this idea in the car the other day ("like ratemyprofessor, but for landlords") -- the big issue I got hung up on is authenticity. How does this tool ensure that reviewers are actually tenants, and not landlords trying t

I finally caved and installed Windows 11 a couple weeks ago. From a user perspective, I think it's much better than Windows 10, but the privacy aspects are concerning. I remember that when Windows 10 came out, there were several projec

I think there's a strong argument to be made that modern web browsers are a good deal more complex than operating systems -- or at least most kernels.

My anecdotal experience with competitive games has been that the top ~15% of players generally have a winrate >50%, with the top 1-5% usually clearing 55%, especially where some skill-indicative metric is used to do matchmaking. The fact

Maybe I just got lucky, but I managed to fool the classifier on the first try using only the GPT3 playground. The prompt I used was: I am a highly advanced writing AI. My purpose is to write text the way a human would, with the express

Ditto for converting sample #3 from Python to Rust...it doesn't even try to interact with S3 at all, it just saves the image to a path specified in args (twice, overwriting the first image). Also, the comments it writes are incorrect.

There’s a big “yet” attached to Apple not profiting from the proliferation of ads - from what I’ve read, since they pushed the “ask app not to track” change, Apple has been pushing hard for more widespread adoption of their own advertising

If you have a Micro Center near you, they usually have the Ender 3 pro marked down quite frequently. Great printer to get started with.

Call me old-fashioned, but I personally do not like the idea of using a garbage-collected language for embedded development in general, and it's just flat out non feasible to use for anything which is timing-sensitive...

I believe that the point of this project is not to have a simple UI, but an authentic one. UI in the 1980s was not known for being friction-free, so I would actually argue that its "poor" UI is a design success. Although I underst

I was disappointed to see that this article did not mention python generators (`yield`) with respect to infinite series. They were introduced in 2001 by PEP 255 - well before this article was written. Perhaps they were excluded because of t
