Perhaps to you. But that's because you have prior cultural knowledge of chess, and what it means to "play" something. It seems to me to be perfectly reasonable for an ai agent to define "play chess" as "behave

I really love boxes.py, and have contributed several designs. The flexbook, shadowbox, coinbanksafe, and frameloom are all mine :) I'm really proud of the loom. https://boxes.hackerspace-bamberg.de/FlexBook https:&#x2

The number of dickovers[1] this website pops up while you're trying to read the article is truly astounding. I gave it my best shot, but after the third one i figured I'd probably gotten enough of the gist of it and gave up. [1]

The url was to transfer log data from metabase to framework. It is not something that is intended for end user access.

Not relevant to the overall discussion, but this VHS vs Betamax thing is actually a myth, borne from confusing Betamax (a home consumer version, comparable and inferior to VHS) with Betacam (a professional format, which could use the same p

There is a difference between crediting the LLM (which i agree is silly) and disclosing the use of an LLM, which I think is important. The author seems to conflate these two. A disclosure is appropriate whenever the reader might feel di

I was in this state a few weeks ago. I spent a bit of time familiarizing myself then wrote up my learnings as a series of exercises. If you think of docker as "kinda like vms except not really" and k8s as "kinda like deployin

the contrast ratio of a black-and-white e-ink screen is significantly better than the contrast ratio of a color e-eink screen when displaying black and white. It's a very noticeable difference between black-and-white vs dark-grey-on-li

I had my PT2 shipped to Germany. Watch cost $225 and then I had to pay an additional $58.54 in taxes / customs fees.

The watch I really want is the Pebble Time 2 with a black-and-white screen. The Pebble Time 2 is a huge step up from the Pebble 2 Duo in almost every conceivable way, but the contrast ratio on the latter is so much better that I still wear

That and it's wild to celebrate innovation that was literally default behavior 20 years ago, which they themselves worked hard to break. Used to be you'd look at your server logs and see referrer headers of google.com/?q=sear

Mine (11th gen framework 13) is. I have to keep it in battery saver mode or the fans just spin up when it's idle. They come up anyway (and irregularly) when watching a movie, loud enough to be heard over the movie -- though that may al

There are no "rules" for responsible disclosure. We have guidelines that we have broadly accepted, but at the end of the day whether or not you discussed responsibly is in the opinion of your peers. There's no such thing as &

I have no insider information so this is all appreciation, but: When it comes to legislative things, there is pretty much always a timeline in which to become compliant. I do wonder if there was opportunity to give warning etc. but Anthropi

There is a vast difference between it not being 100% impossible and data holders not doing the absolute basics to keep it safe. I could imagine if, after a data breach, there was a government-run cyber investigative task force that would co

I excitedly bought a Framework 12 when it first came out, since I figured it'd be a nice thing to travel with (my typical laptop is the 11th-gen 13). However the 12 has just sat under my bed since it arrived. It's actually the sam

but why would anybody choose blue? there is no moral benefit to doing so. If you altered the game to say that only some fraction of the population get the choice, and everyone who doesn't get the choice is assumed blue (or, is killed i

I'd bet that a significant majority of prediction market revenue comes from people who bet big. So I expect your solution would fix all of it, as a second order effect, in that running one would stop being a viable business model.

I recently upgraded my 4a to a 10 two months ago. Besides getting security updates again, it feels like a downgrade in every way that matters to me. Can't lie flat due to camera bulge. No headphone jack. Fingerprint sensor on the front

Not sure this is the reason but: it is generally not easy to get a satellite over the poles. You launch close to the equator in the direction of Earth's spin to take advantage of the (very substantial!) speed you already have due to th

From a practical standpoint, would you consider "Google Germany GmbH" to essentially be just a reference to Google, beholden to everything that matters to Alphabet headquartered in the United States? If so, Nebius is just a fancy

I don't know and can't speak for the team, but I suspect the "launching new products" is not a significant factor in the delays. It sounds to me like the delays are as a result of hardware manufacturing things (which may
