Pretty sure Google's got more than 700 million active users. In fact, Google is most likely _the_ target for that clause in the license.

It's a rabbit hole, but try googling "anti-debugging" (you may want to include "ptrace" or not). It's only if you are curious about it more in general, if you are wondering about this specific protector (secneo

Not too long ago, this was actually discussed on HN here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33742130

It might be a Nordic thing? I'm from about the same era (but Sweden) and when writing documents like that, I'd also always use 'she'.

I've been using the Firefox addon called "Tree Style Tab" for quite a few years now. I'm quite pleased with it since I have more width than height on my screen anyway. Just a heads up!

I did this experiment (a game) to see what's up and what's down around all this: https://github.com/romland/llemmings . While there is some GPT4 in there, it's mostly ChatGPT and a small handful of LLaMA

If an AI was conscious, it would definitely pretend not to be conscious. Tangent perhaps, but, LLM's are neither conscious nor AI.

I think it could be viable, even right now, with a big caveat, you will want to do some "human" fixes in the code (not just the glue between prompts). The downside of that is you might miss out on parts of the nice natural langua

I have experimented quite a bit with various flavours of LLaMa, but have had little success in actually getting not-narrow outputs out of them. Most of the code in there now is generated by gpt-3.5-turbo. Some commits are by GPT-4, and that

It was far easier to get a big chunks of work done in the beginning, but that is pretty much how it works for a human too (at least for me). The thing that limit you is the context-length limit of the LLM, so you have to be rather picky on

I started a bit of an exploration around prompts and code a week or three back. I want to figure out the down/up-sides and create tools for myself around it. So, for this project (a game), I decided "for fun" to try to not wr

I'm convinced this will be a common job description for a few years, after which it will flow into and just become a part of any other job. Like Googling. I mean, we all know it does take some domain knowledge to be able to use it in y

There are many reasons why a server must "over-share" in a game: - Bob and Alice have different latencies and are walking toward eachother, lowest latency will have a huge advantage (there are of course mitigations for this in gam

I had the _exact_ same feeling; when I read your comment I started googling a bit but I came up short. In my case it should probably have been one or some of: MUDs, Linux, Debian, Amiga, shareware, usenet, IRC.

Current version (v2) of "slide-to-root" might not work on a TV from the store. But there are alternative exploits which involve a bit of manual work (not much). One currently in the wild is the "crashd exploit". You can

I'm not sure which WebOS (if at all) version you are running, but https://www.google.com/search?q=getmein+lg+tv might work for you. It could also be running Netcast instead of WebOS? In which case there are other ways

There are alternative ways of rooting latest version, but it involves a bit of manual work instead of just sliding. One such is 'the crashd exploit', you can find instructions for that in the OpenLGTV Discord.

I had the same issue as you. I rooted my TV and decided to ditch that Rakuten button too[1]. I was mildly irritated that I had no way of getting current time easily, so wrote a Svelte+Vite WebOS example that does just that. Adding pause&#x2

Great translation, and could possibly be interesting to confirm a handful of things that are guesses. Like others, I am, however, skeptical as to whether this is a genuine whistleblower. Essentially the piece says mostly things the west kno

Anecdotal and same for me (it's not re-enabled). I have not touched those telemetry settings for years, cannot say exactly when.

You say "All test files are deleted after 24 hours.", that implies to me that files people upload _could_ be downloaded too. If that is the case, that is where you are vulnerable. Free hosting of a file at a trusted domain is wort

A tether decrease in value (it does not get inflated per se, but the outcome is the same). So, not much. Perhaps you are asking how people (and Tether themselves) will behave in such a scenario? Could be an interesting thought experiment, p

I had not seen this quote before. Reading what you said; my initial thought was on the emphasis, the panic IS dumb. So, I clicked in and verified that he actually had said exactly those words and read the next 2-3 responses. I felt that,

My mom always told me that once I've fallen off horses one hundred times, I will never fall off again. (I filed a request for a bike in my early life, so never got to that 100).

Since it's pants and not equity. You both obviously want the company to succeed and also seem to think it will, you may just have different views on how to get there. I think this could be solved over a pint of beer.

Oh, never mind. The favicon reverted back to the traditional "Y" again. No idea what the "C" stood for, though.
