PISA data show that students who use AI for specific schoolwork tasks, such as summarising texts, drafting or conducting research, attain lower scores in science than students who do not use AI. See graphs on PISA 2025 homepage : https:&

I tested different models of the 5.6 family with different settings, although I couldn't exactly remember precisely which ones.

I got the opposite experience very recently : tried to OCR a bunch of handwritten emails addresses with chatGPT and I had to make so many corrections that I gave up. Whereas Mistral nailed it on first pass.

I say this is a click bait article. The guy is taking a contrarian view on smartphone use by young people, with weak and very subjective arguments. > the impetus for the most authoritarian internet regulation in the UK, including the &lt

This is a terrible idea. Screen time hinders the development of fundamental skills, including language and social interaction, especially for children of these ages. France have already moved to ban screens from places with children under 3

I think you are mixing up different concepts. Power impacts frequency, reactive power impacts voltage. It doesn't make sense to "cut power when frequency drops".

Thanks, I was looking for an article like this, with a focus on the differences between generative AI techniques. My guess is that since LLMs and image generation became mainstream at the same time, most people don't have the slightes

The faq says rankings can be affected by automated moderation. I'd appreciate to have this clarified by a mod if one happens to read my words. Thanks How are stories ranked? The basic algorithm divides points by a power of the time si

Thanks for the heads up ! Without your message I'd probably have found out in a couple months :)

Well depending on the size of your codebase, npm dependencies and Angular APIs used, it might or might not be a big deal. You can have a rough estimate of the complexity by running 'ng update'. Yes major releases come at a rapid

It'd be interesting to know why load time hasn't improved. In the comments I mostly see "because of js and adtech", but is there a factual analysis somewhere ? How much is due to the recent massive deployment of https an

Thanks for the explanation. We bought the laptops from Dell, and after reading your message this is what I found on their website : "All computers that Dell currently ships are Modern Standby compliant and the above applies. A registry

I confirm this was enabled by default. The laptop were shipped from Dell with Pro versions of Windows. The end-users did not go through bitlocker setup process and therefore were not aware that they had to backup their security key.

Thanks. I've never heard of these. I understand that's some computer fleet management solution. I guess that's not something enabled by default, so probably not an option for us.

Speaking of adapting the product, the article explicitely states : "Is it possible to set the Google Analytics tool so that personal data is not transferred outside the European Union?" "No." So right now it is practica

Author claim is more about how to make people work together on deployment. Rather than a rant on devops tools. You can do simple things with modern devops tools. You can go off rails with simple scripts. It's not the tooling, it's

Yes. I was confused reading this article because author seems to miss an important point. Devops culture is about "you build it, you run it". Not having a dedicated devops team that tries to make developers do things. I Read a boo

Relevant info is at the end of the article : "The electricity used for Bitcoin produces about 22 megatons of CO2 annually, a study in the scientific journal Joule estimated. That is as much as Kansas City in the US." Bitcoin = Kan

Yes, I'm also curious about these "hidden trackers". Couldn't find any info on what he meant by that.

I totally agree. Current pattern is very similar to the four-five previous bubbles, which the author doesn't seem to take into consideration or even be aware of. Besides, futures trading has existed a long time on chinese platforms bef

Firefox has a serious performance issue. The difference with Chrome is really noticeable after only a few minutes of browsing. Less responsive, huge memory comsumption. Try d3.js for instance, the rendering speed is horribly slow on Firefox
