I think when people say non-deterministic what they mean is closer to chaotic, like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_theory as in very small changes in conditions can produce completely different output making predi

I guess it depends on the culture but I would think it's a good thing to show interest and passion for this stuff by talking about things you do in your free time like setting up Minecraft servers, whoever you're talking to will p

Being available to the public if they bought the game doesn't mean it's in the public domain and you're allowed to upload a copy of it (or a derivative work) onto GitHub, though (I like these projects but I really don't

My approach is generally just to put the destination into Google Maps and select public transport, it works on the same data source as this and has live tracking

It is confirmed and the algorithm has been reverse engineered, though not by looking at firmware https://w2.eff.org/Privacy/printers/docucolor/ Seems like the algorithm is simple enough that they did it just

I struggled to understand the article, it doesn't properly explain what the exploit is in a way I could immediately understand, after staring at it for a bit and reading comments here I think it's a hardware register that's e

This is still significantly more clunky than f-strings, especially when you're writing them a lot for debugging purposes

Generally, people have to make an active decision to spread false information, or be misinformed themselves in the first place, and that's not actually particularly common, whereas for LLMs it's just the default due to how they wo

I think it matters because AI can hallucinate so it makes me doubt the truthfulness It's also somewhat dishonest to present unedited AI-written content as your own work

Could you not develop the same sense by just looking in front of you without the viewfinder? I don’t see how a frame that doesn’t actually have any relation to what the camera is capturing helps you at all

But if it’s giving you no information about what will actually be in frame you might as well just look in front of you and guess

It would be nice if they made a web app, that would make it work on iOS but also desktop and every other platform with a web browser at the same time

Trying a bunch of sizes in their studio tool (all cubes to make it easier): 5mm x 5mm x 5mm (smallest I can select): $32.58 10mm x 10mm x 10mm: $36.58 20mm x 20mm x 20mm: $82.86 30mm x 30mm x 30mm: $143.60 50mm x 50mm x 50mm: $509.14 100mm

It’s only new for the web version (but this seems way worse than the one in the desktop version, sadly)

I think they should just have to properly explain how AI tends to make things up when it doesn’t know, and that it’s good for coming up with ideas or suggesting directions for research but that you shouldn’t rely on it, because currently th

If there are charge points in the street or there’s a way to run a cable there then I don’t see why that has to be an issue

Do you not ever want to show someone something on your screen? For a bug report or to demonstrate a project you’re working on? Or do a screen share to ask for help with setting something up (which is admittedly a bit different from a record

Screen recording is not niche, anyone who works remotely probably does video calls daily and the others are somewhat more niche but I'd guess that at least 50-70% of people do at least one of these things

Use cases for hardware encoders in PCs: - Video calls - Screen/webcam recording - Live streaming - Real-time transcoding for media servers (don’t know much about this but I’ve heard it’s a thing) - Game streaming - Video editing (makin

This is a software solution designed to work with existing multi colour printers, so you can’t “just mix” them as this would need additional hardware

For new games, they would know from the beginning that they’ll need to release the server software eventually, so they wouldn’t be able to agree with those terms

It is of course reasonable to restrict what you can do with a product you’re selling for money. There are plenty of laws and regulations that already do this. Without these kinds of laws intellectual property wouldn’t even exist - copyright

It would at least be reasonable to expect this for future games, just treat the server binary the same way as the client in terms of what code you include (there way be some more involved if they have to migrate off a reusable codebase but

If this was about open source software I’d agree about not forcing people to do additional work, but if you’re selling something for money you should be obligated to do the bare minimum of stripping secrets out of a binary so the product yo

I interpret the “media” part as in “medium”, meaning it’s a medium/method over which you can be social, not “media” as in “multimedia”

When your code can be completely reshaped by earlier passes and macro expansions and inlining I don’t think it’s feasibly to make a useful warning for that If you include a library function with a null check that gets inlined you probably d
