The markers aren't words that you can sprinkle in your prose, they are a statistical bias in the selection of the words.

I think they mean it like this: imagine you ask me a random number sequence. I give you a random number sequence. Little did you know, I used a very specific PRNG to generate it, so later I can prove with certainty that your number was gene

LLMs can be very good at 2. Finding the best architecture, data structures, algorithms, looking on arXiv to see other ways to solve the problem, etc. You have to work in design mode and stop it from pissing code. Describe the requirements a

What do you mean you don't remember, your repo is from 8 months ago, this release is from 18 hours ago. And how does "Gemini couldn't get it to work" translate to "it's broken"? It sounds like your vibe-co

It's used by most users, that's what they are saying, it doesn't matter that the file format is obscure. If you make a video player based on ffmpeg you take input videos. The attacker can share a specially crafted video with

Just a point about precision, Google Maps fire overlay is based on NASA Firms + some processing, and it's not perfectly accurate. It is currently marking my little town as under fire / burned down, but it's not and hasn'

How interesting I was just reading yesterday his paper "An enduring error" about how we have been miscounting the Archimedean solids for two thousand years. But also, for this conjecture to be wrong is quite surprising to me. Intu

I thought an industry standard was to use proxy files. Open source editor Shotcut use them for example. Create a low resolution + intra-frame only version of the file for very fast scrubbing, make your edits on that, and when done the edit

This is the worst to me. It happened to me a few times already. Someone says or writes something wrong. You correct them. They get defensive and justify the error by saying it's what the chat bot wrote. It's very frustrating, they

It is counter intuitive but information can still travel between places that are so distant that expansion between them is faster than the speed of light. It's just extremely slow (so I still vote for going to the party at the highest

Already a big problem in art, people go on witch hunt over what they think are signs of AI use. It's sad because people that are ok with AI art are still enjoying the human art just the same. Somehow their visceral hate of AI-art manag

Hurting the enemy is intentional and thus has an implicit "gain" built into it, even if it's just psychological. The physical losses can be deemed acceptable because of it, if the satisfaction derived from hurting the enemy b

You can change sync settings on a per-profile basis. I have 6 profiles, 4 of which I synchronize between different computers. They use different sync accounts. So for example on my personal profile I sync the passwords but not on the work p

For me that's how it works unless I already have a Firefox window opened. If I have multiple windows of different profiles already open (which happens all the time) it may add it to the wrong one, so I sometimes need to drag and drop t

I do it all the time I'm not sure what you are talking about. I use Tree Style Tabs extension (obviously), so maybe the feature is coming from there? You can definitely drag and drop a tab from one window to another, target window can

I don't understand some of these comments. Start firefox, pick profile, opens a window in the selected profile. The only weirdness is when you have multiple windows of different profiles opened at the same time and you open a link from

The point of profiles is that they are completely isolated from each other, like separate installs, so I don't think starting to share preferences would be great.

I've been using profiles for 15 years and I didn't even know it was in about:config . Just add -p in your shortcut to start on the profile manager.

Command prompt, terminal? What are you talking about? You just have to add the -p in the shortcut properties.

Use -p in your shortcut to firefox and it will show the profile manager on launch, from that you can easily create a new profile or open a new window on existing one.

A roadblock to what workflow? I just have -p in my firefox shortcut and it shows the profile manager every time I launch. I have 6 profiles I use regularly.

We obviously wish for this to be true so we must be careful with our own bias. It's not clear at all that "centaur" teams are better at chess than computer alone, are there actual tournaments where this is tested? I remember
