Trying to find a way to tip toe around KYC, whilst keeping their customers safe, has also turned out to only use insanely stupid methods, though. So why did they already do that?

xAI v. Ellison [1], where xAI argue that the right to denudify people is a First Amendment right, and therefore fine, regardless of the person it is depicting. > HF 1606’s principal sponsor stated that this was an “intentional”

Sociopathic nerd, putting an awful lot of money into legalising CSAM, and interfering in elections domestic and foreign. Dunno if I'd rank Musk's danger down - he screams a certain ideology these days. He might well believe he is

Whilst most around me do expect voice control to exist... Most expect it not to function. "Hey Siri/Google" was always more of an exercise in frustration than success. It seems the Australian accent still befuddles most STT w

In that quote, Adams doesn't repeat himself, before making an assertion. He realises the audience has more of a context window than three words. The same is not true, of the token generation that... Mostly Claude models... Have taken t

Formalized in Lean, just five months ago [0], resulted in discovery of bugs. Just because Lean can compile it, does not mean it is safely proven. It is the start of a process to check whether something actually holds, not the end. [0] http

Random and unrelated things. Things that could have happened anytime, but didn't. Just all at once during one run. And haven't really happened since. Ones I remember: - Opening night, actress slipped on a stair, and fractured her

Not verbose enough. Needs to repeat the same information twice or thrice.

Nope. They don't really follow most superstitions. But most didn't end up with half a cast injured.

Banned, not a joke. Because there is a marked number of incidents around the play. It doesn't matter if it is rational or not - it happens. So, banned.

Performances at my local theatre are banned. The crowd loved the short five-night run, last time. It made all the papers, tickets sold out, tourists rocked up for it. Seven actors were injured, in a space that usually saw one injury a year.

Gambit-C has also been around since '88 and can compile to fairly portable C. Probably been a decade since I tried compiling it for DOS, but I believe getting it up and running shouldn't be difficult.

A few models/firmware combinations have found to look for public hotspots when you don't agree to give them network.

Bash lines are buffered, so modifying behind the program position doesn't really work, but you can self-append to the file to keep a script going infinitely.

Again, the problem is discovery - if this is an optout, and the system that tells you is the same thing that you need to change to be able to use it in the first place, the audience just feels the usual crush and moves on.

Yeah, I'm not really sure how to feel about the way they plan to handle it. "Happy it exists at all" resonates. Most accessibility users find something inaccessible, sigh, and move on. Most of the time there is nothing we can

The ePub contains both SVGs and PNGs, the latter of which doesn't compress all that well for "plain zip", which an ePub is. The PDF on the other hand gets to use zlib for streaming all the objects. It gets half decent compres

> but you wouldn't normally use a database replication protocol to actually transmit live video. Unless you're Teams. Which... Is probably evidence for the above.

Please run all of these through a TTS engine. Yes, it is very helpful to have actually directed information. But the need to use a TUI to do it, bugs me. Not coincidentally, I use JAWS most of the time.

I have never had it be every now and then. It is always bullshit, the first time around. Usually followed by, "You ignored the first three rules, and all the examples, try again." I have worked with some amazingly incompetent devs

I think you'd just end up with WxWidgets. Because it can do all of that. Most of the jank of the modern platform doesn't come from JavaScript - it comes frame dependency hell, framework layered over framework, and over abstraction

Its different, in that when you teach that engineer, they either leave because now they hate you, or they grow. They change to meet the standards of a project, rather than inventing their own. We don't get seniors, without juniors. I&#

IBM got banned from Queensland gov contracts for 12 years, after the humans decided to secretly scan all legal docs for contract insider knowledge. I'm sure artificial IBM will be much more... Principled.

If the parent compared the approach between typst and ExactTeX sure. The two probably should be compared. "I like typst" doesn't quite seem to fit the substance I'd expect of a comment.

Claude regular spits out six helper functions instead of... A twenty line for loop. It overengineers most things. Overabstracting, deduplicating things that don't need to be. Building metaclasses because it saw a single orchestrator in
