Don't have a solution but just to add that I'm the same boat, and I've seen a few others. Something trips their anomaly detection and they don't care about it because it's presumably a low false positive rate. For w

I didn't even use openclaw and Anthropic disabled my account without explanation beyond "suspicious signals". If anyone found a way to get out of that, I'd be curious to hear it - genuinely no idea what I did wrong, and

They're predators. They are very good at understanding where your real attention is.

Was about to do that, but it turned out it's already fixed in the current version - so literally the only minor issue I hit on my way to a custom sync server is resolved already :)

Just as a counterpoint, to avoid people getting the wrong idea about the complexity involved - I use it and it took literally minutes. The most confusing part was that the sync settings in Ankidroid referred to Ankiweb.

It's my primary environment for anything code related (I'm not a developer by profession). Cheap tablet in vertical model, cheap keyboard, termux, tmux, Claude Code with instructions to offload anything more resource intensive to

You can, of course, define understanding as a metaphysical property that only people have. If you then try to use that definition to determine whether a machine understands, you'll have a clear answer for yourself. The whole operation,

As someone who's spent the last 3 years in Africa, if there's one thing I learnt here is that if it can be fixed, they'll find a way to fix it.

The thing with idealists in the philosophical sense is that they're typically not very well grounded in reality. Not saying it's always drugs/psychotic breaks/deep meditation, but often it is. Even more so with the panps

I took one of the last ham radio exams in the Netherlands that were taken by having many test takers in a room (now it's computer based, using the same infrastructure as the driver's license theory test). Of thirty people, there w

I'm the person most positive about technology of all my friends, and this gets a no from me. A relationship is an endless sequence of coordination problems, and you need to work out a way to do these effortlessly. Defer to the person w

I'd generally call this amount of tables an antipattern - doing this basically implies that there's information stored in the table names that should be in rows instead, like IDs etc. -- But I'll admit that sensor related use

I sympathize, and I think this is a bigger problem than the skills/experience/age issues. I'd do what I can to either move to a more dynamic place, or get a remote job for a US company. I know it's hard, but it's be

Hilbert was from Konigsberg/Kaliningrad. Not very likely to be heard today.

No, your point came across. You think every sort of handwriting is cursive, and I don't think I can help you with that :)

by dhoe 2y ago
Did you read the first sentence of the Wikipedia article? It contrasts cursive with block letters. Anyway, you're of course free to call block letters cursive. It's not the traditional meaning, and it's interesting to observe

It's just not cursive. This is not controversial, there was a huge debate ~15 years ago when cursive instruction was removed from the curriculum in the US.

The error bars on any kind of population data for large parts of Africa should be very large.

I am reading his book. It's quite good, for example I'd never had a good understanding for why the high tides are every twelve hours, and he explains that well in a paragraph. On the minus side, he does cover a lot of things that

The full sentence is ""We don't talk about our specific numbers, but I think we're investing more than that over time", which is more informative than you're making it sound.

It's an image enhancement measure, if you want. Databricks' customers mostly use it as an ETL tool, but it benefits them to be perceived as more than that.

80% of the US lives in urban areas. Surely at least those should find some friends nearby?

Do I understand you correctly that you're saying that the author of this post, one of the founding engineers of BigQuery, is being unfair to BigQuery?

I almost didn't get a mortgage in the Netherlands because if you're German, they request a Schufa report, and there was a minor issue on that. Had I come from e.g. Bangladesh instead of from Germany, I would not have had this prob
