That makes me wonder two things. Firstly, if your can use this to find LLM generated content, which I guess would need similar instructions. Imagine instructing it to talk like a pirate, it would be quite different from a generic response

This is exactly what has been playing out in the Netherlands the past couple of months: the weather institute (KNMI) released their own weather app that is functionally the same (in some cases superior) as the commercial apps that want your

Even if something is well known, its important to measure it and set statistical limits. While the 4 sigma in the article is not enough to claim an observation, it opens the points towards some exciting new Beyond the Shearing Model physics

AFAIK the EU law has to be implemented on a local level, and the countries' agencies can uphold in their respective country. Once a single country has a precedent, this can be used by other member states. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Interesting idea to increase the scope until the LLM gives suggestions on how to 'hack' itself. Good read!

Super cool! This only works on the side facing the GNSS constellation, right? There is no signal to use on the other side.

I'm still not quite sure how to take this, does this mean that: We can not fix problematic netcode (this is a running joke in the TF2 comminity) We can fix game balance issues (that could also be fixed through configs)?

The muon traverses a few hundred meters of detection volume very close to the speed of light, so in the order of one microsecond.

Ha, that made me laugh, thanks for the correction!

One of the lead researchers in KM3NeT mentioned that the particle was emitting 2 horse power in light during detector transit. A typical body builder expends about 1 horse power while performing, so its 2 body builders in a single particle.

I've been using mistral for most of January at the same rate as chatgpt before. I decided to pay for it as its per token (in and out) and the bill came yesterday... A whopping 1 cent. Thats probably rounded up.

I've been using it for about a year now and for personal stuff its fine. Just some sheets and the occasional document and there haven't been any issues with formatting and such that tend to pop up when moving between MS and others

My pixel 4a lasted about 3 hours before the update, now its about an hour. Even with the discount in the store, it was cheaper to get the pixel 8a and some cash from a local vendor. The ticket to get the reimbursement went surprisingly fast

I play one game at a time for about a month and then move to the next. When I first played Mario Odyssey on my switch I was over the moon with how much pure fun it was compared to all the good looking and serious RPGs I played in the decade

I just have to point out - looking out an office window to the the data center we use here in Amsterdam - that Amsterdam is a city and not a country. But it was a very funny mistake to me, and I assume the best.

Indeed, it has been decommissioned for some 20 odd years now. But it's kept up and running by volunteers and became a national monument.

You may be correct. In my head anything shot into space and still flying must be a satellite but that's a lazy shortcut.

I got to visit the telescope earlier this year, its pretty cool. In a forest outside some small towns. For how well connected the Netherlands is, its pretty hard to reach. We looked at the sun and some planets in radio frequencies (its all

I bought a dumb tv some 2 years ago. 4k, 50ish inch and it has a chromecast v2 attached. Works great. The funny part is when younger family members come over, they get frustrated there's no netflix button on the remote! Last time that

About a month ago I would've said the automatic upgrades. But a few weeks ago I tried to upgrade, my custom setup couldnt be resolved by the image builder (probably old software installed). I decided to backup, export the uci commands

Indeed, you could fill a book with it. I wrote this just before bed, my estimation skill was already asleep.

What they don't tell you is that if you write out all the indices (mu and nu represent 4 spacetime coordinates, antisymmetric components (f_abc = -f_bac, etc), the kappas and lambdas I don't even remember!), and their contractions

At some tier 1 sites in the grid there is no backup for the tapes as its costly and you only lose some statistics when a tape is lost.

Don't forget bandwidth costs at this scale are significant to say the least.

Oh my god I love the way they visualize the recipe steps. That's how I write them down (grouping ingredients and steps), but its a table merging rows instead!

Microsoft is working on storing in glass tiles, which should last up to 10.000 years [1]. Its not commercial yet though. [1] https://unlocked.microsoft.com/sealed-in-glass/

I was just thinking about the distances used: in LIGO/VIRGO, the sizes of the chambers is 4 km, and the interferometric distance they look for is 10^{-18} m to detect a GW. For the baseline of DUNE we have 1300km, so that would mean 10

I love this! This is how I want to watch stuff sometimes, very relaxing to take away all the functionality and (mental) noise that comes with it. Thanks.
