I have no problem with not being on top of a hierarchy. But having no agency at all was a horrible way of existance.

This is plain wrong. For a browser, a11y doesn't just get handled by the OS automatically. In general, claiming a11y is easy or will be done by someone else is bordering on evil.

They basically replaced the static position evaluation function with a NN approach and kept the rest of the tree search mostly intact. I ran fishtest on an old cluster for a while. Was nice to watch the stockfish team methodically improvin

I doubt that. Across the street of our small organic shop around the corner is a bike parking spot. Still, I recently fall over a bike parked directly in front of the door of said shop. Bike people are lazy more often then not.

I take a 8 hour work day over being subjected to more or less random weirdness from "adults" every day. IOW, not everyone has this rose-tinted view of their childhood. I still remember adults saying "you will once look back

Don't forget the elderly. They are responsible for a crash in roughly $age% of the cases. So a 66 yo person is the reason for a crash in 2/3 of the cases... I hear Greece has a mandatory doctor visit after 65 of so every 2 year

As a blind pedestrian, 95% of the pain I have to endure while out and about is due to lazily parked bikes. IOW, bikes can even hurt people if they are NOT moving and their owner isn't even around.

I wasn't trying to imply there is anything wrong with these practice projects. I have written at least two chess engines maybe. And I am seriouly considering to write an editor, so, there you have it. I kind of got sidetracked by im

Depends. I take an AI generated voice over a french guy trying to talk english every day! Same for japanese. I really try, but I find these two speaker types really hard to follow and stay alert.

So apparently every half-serious coder will write at least one chess engine and a text editor. Any other program type which gets implemented over-and-over again?

"We removed the wheelchair ramp because it was used by rodents to enter our building." "Don't shoot the messenger!" Security can't be a reason for discrimination.

Sure, I am practicing understanding for the tyranny around me everyday when I wake up, as a meditation exercise. Answers like yours kill the little remaining faith I have in people. This same argument has been used to defend sloppily implem

Are there "right people"? Or does power corrupt, and your cozy wish is just not realistic? Looking at local politics, I see misuse of power and on all sides. Left, right, middle . Nobody can be trusted.

Explain to me how using OPEN source for training is theft? I've (admittedly skimmed) quite a few licenses, but I really dont remember anyone restricting reading/indexing source code?

Because it is way cheaper?

Yes. And you know what, thats fine. Because it is coming from one of those "kids", from someone who suffered from parental stupidity more then you might be willing to imagine.

I get all the fuzz about only being able to learn if you do the work. But frankly, as a hobby programmer with a rather unusual workflow/toolset and a love for the command-line, it has never been so satifying to scratch a few itches I&

See, you dont like the word stupid, and I dont like the word strong/weak. It implies that people are not equal in their decision-making, which I strongly oppose. It also has a patronising touch to it, which I also oppose violently.

Does it really matter who influences parents? After all, they are grown ups, have the responsibility. Its their call. If they fall for marketing, its still their own stupidity which endangers their children. Lets calla spade a spade.

If you call "must more anecodtal knowledge" a bias, I give you that.

According to your statement, the vast majority of parents also do not care about the health of their own children. The reality is probably a bit different. Its not about caring, it is plain lack of information/stupidity. I know what

I suspect natives have a more nuanced view of their home country, compared to expats who end up getting a tinted view. At least it likely takes a long time for an outsider to truly understand how things work. Reading the newspapers isn&#x

Question is if the outcome was LLM related or just a result of a personality trait. After all, talking in circles without really approaching an end-goal is something certain humans do all day long.

> Long output? Redirect to a file and read it from there: Hmm, smells AI generated. Why should an LLM (this is from a SKILL.md) care about $LINES?
