I think the idea is that it being case preserving is sufficient to allow decrypting the filenames. And I guess it relies on the 31 (32?) bit blocks, to make colisions unlikely for short filenames.

That doesn't really apply to the people running the AI, which gave it the capability to commit crimes. They don't get to act like victims, asking for law enforcement.

You can make curry with them (either just the peels, or whole unripe bananas).

Perelman posted to arXiv in 2002/3. The prize was offered to him in 2010, after multiple others had digested his work and published elsewhere.

I read that as “the model didn't look up user data” as part of a “tool call,” i.e. they don't have an internal tool that loads user data (chats, sessions, attachments) for their internal models to read online while working. Or (

I never said anything about green. They don't have oil, they want to be less reliant on oil. Electricity allows them to adapt the mix in a way petrol doesn't.

Due to Iran, they're cutting oil/fuel imports 30% YoY, and consumption by the transportation sector by 5~10%.

It's easy to do a VFS that handles instant forking (snapshots). Here's an in-memory one I made (pretty useful for unit tests): https://github.com/ncruces/go-sqlite3/tree/main/vfs/mvcc The

Yes, and the person engaged with them is pointing out that more complex solutions exist because someone added other requirements. Maybe “I want a configurable chime” is just a less popular requirement than “I want to be notified on my pho

Wasting your latin trying to impress others with nothingness causes the same revulsion, human or AI. Previously, most people would save their effort for things that actually mattered. Take away the effort and this is what you get.

Bluetooth is watch initiated, and only turns on 4 times a day (or when the user explicitly requests it with a button press). The pedometer is probably a special chip. You should compare this with the F-91W that gets 7 years on the same batt

They're saying the software that makes the car start was more expensive than the software that allows you to play music in the car.

Sure, but that's 12-18pm CET, which is hardly peak EU work hours. So what does "the majority" mean? 51%? Because that's just saying those 51% occur during EU/UK afternoons and east cost mornings.
