That's possible, but unlock doesn't work after death.

Don't use LLMs except for the most menial things. Get as much practice in creating various things. Study expert-level books on related subjects. Foster your creativity in other areas too (i.e. writing, drawing, music). Don't pas

Database systems lock pages when writing to them, to maintain integrity. Using 1GB pages would cause excessive blocking in many if not most transactional databases.

You might want a lawyer's help to get that person to assist. Perhaps through an agreement not to sue for past wrongs, and maybe with a payment.

It's not too late to take on a daring, creative project that stretches reasonable resource limitations.

It's pretty simple. Get the Air if for yourself. Get the Pro if for work or if you want a better screen. Get the iPad for kids.

How about "JahScript" since it is the lord of the scripting languages?

Maybe he didn't have the stick-and-rudder skills needed to ace that emergency; he's not like Sullenberger. But he prioritized saving his own life over that plane, and that's the real, unspoken problem.

I took my own passport photo with my mirrorless camera, and a whiteboard as the background. It took a while to get it right, with no bright spots on the background and now shadows. It was accepted.

Well, most PEOPLE are disinterested in history, except when it's presented to confirm their own views. That's a shame for those Bible school students because learning those things involves learning how people respond to religion,

I worked with a former army officer / test pilot who was formerly involved with the Comanche project, when the news came out that it got cancelled. He was quite disappointed with that, and disagreed with what was said about it's s

Proof, something that people can observe and recognize as true, not just circumstantial evidence. They should avoid repeating the Dorian Nakamoto situation.

Unless there is hard evidence, I'd consider this a waste of time. I don't know the purpose of "revealing" Satoshi if he's someone who doesn't want the attention.

I'm glad to see he made that request, even from jail. Expressing magnanimity is a bit of freedom, in and of itself.

I've never ever wanted a Macbook, but I'm ok with an iPad Pro.

It's a bit easy to understand that in the context of gravity, because gravity bends light down. If you shine a flashlight on Earth, that light is in free-fall, bending down. Time follows the same path, because the speed of light is fi

There shouldn't be much controversy over fixing pandemic-era over hiring. But that's just the public-facing rationale. Betting more heavily on AI tech might be the real reason.

I wonder if this move is sound. Granted, inflation of consumer products hasn't died down, so they are getting choosier in how they spend, affecting Google's advertising revenue. So Google is betting more heavily on AI as a potenti

I wasn't there; I was in college at that time, but I remember the attitude from military magazines, radio, etc. Iraqi soldiers in Kuwait were seen as universally guilty of "raping" Kuwait, and any who died deserved his punish

Me too, though I don't remember getting a key/coin holder with the disk. Strange to think of me indirectly buying peppermint schnapps at that time.

It seems like your first opinion was correct.

This suggests that a real schism is occurring at OpenAI. I anticipate hearing of two different philosophies at play.

Bare-metal solutions save money, but are costly in terms of development time and lost agility. Basically, they have much more friction.

Mitnick didn't steal anything except source code. He didn't do anything that was truly reprehensible. I feel it's premature to comment on SBF. He hasn't even been tried yet.

On the flip side, his child will grow up knowing he had the coolest dad ever.

Tracking space weather and studying heliophysics sounds more useful than exploring the Kuiper belt, but much less fun.
