That's a silly reply. Imagine telling a kid to chisel what they want out of the marble line by line with a straight face when they can clearly see people appearing entire programs into existence in minutes.

The system cards are effectively a data dump for researchers to sift through. They're not meant for normal consumers who just want to use the model for work.

People don't want to make games, they want to make multiplayer games. Very few kids are going to go though the incredible difficulty of making multiplayer work in something like Godot.

Don't ignore the transient. The industrial revolution created a hell on Earth for workers for the better part of a century.

Feels like a poor philosophy to me. 10 years feels like plenty of value to get out of something before switching.

Thousands of years? We've only had the tech to be able to research this in some technical depth for a few decades (both scale of computation and genetics / imaging techniques).

This would not fund the people you want it to fund. Bad or borderline actors would be so much better at creating whatever metrics you're basing things off of that the actual value creators wouldn't stand a chance.

As for me that's a risk I'm willing to accept in return for the freedom of the code. I'm not going to deliberately write code that's LIKELY to do more harm than good, but crippling the potential positive impact just beca

You can easily print bricks that work. They will just require more force to assemble than normal because you have to make them slightly undersized to make up for the lower tolerance. Just think of how many 3d prints you've seen that co

Desperately lacking a sound elevator pitch, eh?

One way I like to write comments is describing what would break if the block / line of code weren't there. I find that ends up being succinct and useful in the future.

Why wouldn't you want it to be a computer? Then it can be connected to your devices AND also do the job itself in a situation where it's awkward to connect to a device. If already needs a computer in it to drive menus / moder

The website you're using right now is possibly the single least want of a CDN out of any of the sites I regularly visit. What other popular site has zero images or video to speak of?

The key piece of the stack it gives you is sensible cross-platform component behaviors to put your styling / branding on to of.

Cameras in the hands is a pretty killer idea, why do things on hard-mode when you can throw extra data at the problem?

Why are people assuming they did store it after the process was completed? With the relatively low number leaked here it could have been information collected actively during an ongoing breach, not a dump of some permanent database.

That just means that owning the walled gardens and network effects will become yet more important.

Ever heard of invasive species? That's the problem. Mirror life may not be a problem for the biosphere in the long run but it could totally be a problem for humans in the short run.

People realized that past phishing attempts were quite badly constructed and a well constructed one is actually really easy to fall for.

That assumes he would have stopped with the shenanigans, which is a pretty big if.

There's literally hundreds of such settings. When you get into the combinations there's such a multitude of scenarios that you certainly can't have dedicated code for everything. I suppose you could have it attempt to run a f

It seems like a flop not in user count but in that I'm not seeing it originate any valuable content. I've seen several interesting posts from Bluesky referenced elsewhere already, but literally nothing from Threads despite it havi

Yes, and what does preceding research do? Get followed by more research building on it.

Probably something related to LLMs. The LLMs picking up outdated info, them trying to hoard the data. Who knows, but it smells of something LLM related.

Sometimes people are too afraid of attempting to make it consistent. I've done several migrations of thing with dozens of unique bespoke usage patterns back to a nice consistent approach. It sometimes takes a couple straight days of ju

The "Tools" drop-down menu on your site does not automatically close after clicking an item, leaving it obscuring the content. I found that quite jarring.

Can someone who works on GitHub explain why "Hide whitespace" doesn't persist?

This feels like a failure to learn the bitter lesson: You're just taking the translation to concepts that the LLM is certainly already doing and trying to make it explicitly forced.
