I don't know how people use ChatGPT at all. It confidently hallucinated answers to 4 out of 5 my latest "real" questions, with code examples and everything. Fortunately with code I could easily verify the provided solutions a

On PC you can just mute the music and play anything you want in the background. So there's no need for a special support.

Yes, let's give corporations more power. Image bubble colour indicate the protocol you're using, and nothing more. It don't - and can't - guarantee security (many people learned this lesson with https). But sure, let&#x2

I would call most intelligent space aliens from movies "deeply human". Which makes sense, they were created by humans to tell stories to other humans. So I guess being human is not a prerequisite to being "deeply human".

I wanted to say that this "obviously" means "5 hours median" i.e. 50%, but I just realised my managers and clients would almost always understand this as "I swear on everything I hold dear this will take 5 hours and

I want you to be right. But why do you think you're more qualified to say how to make AI safe than the board of a world-leading AI nonprofit?

So all the programmers who work there should live on thin air? I agree that ideally the management should not be there for profit, but come on, the salaries are not even that crazy. I suspect FAANG key employees in that area easily earn mul

I have issue with headlines like this. Given inflation it's actually expected that every year is "record", in non-inflation-adjusted dollars. Same goes e.g. for number of millionaires, house prices, etc.

Answering your question directly: RE is 60% of my daily work, and I don't use and don't know anyone who uses LLMs for RE. One reason is that you lose interactivity if you process code using something other than your decompiler of

Lucky you. In my previous job I had to work many hours a day over SSH or even RDP on servers an ocean away (servers in the SF region, I worked remotely from europe).

I disagree. For me it's useful mostly for position independent shellcode prologue, which has no sections to speak of, and may get embedded in a "normal" executable or something that is not an executable at all (useful in a bo

Is this some obscure feature of Windows? In my experience, while code sections are almost never writable, they're always readable.

Ah yes, CLAs are not a real open source, which is why they're required by uhh FSF. I mean I dislike CLAs personally, but I understand why they can be healthy for a project growth.

>Your date reference makes no sence because either / or - is used in those cases, not dots or comma's. In my (european) country a dot is used - for example 5.11.2023.

In this case I suggest scepticism towards the theory that Berlin nightclubs intentionally and openly exclude American tourists (a pretty wealthy class). When the only proof is a random HN post. This doesn't even pass the sniff test. So

You personally can't, but a majority can. My country just did that (voted out a regressive government).

This is not a reasonable expectation. GDPR got this right and the consent must be explicit. When almost everyone has abusive ToS you might as well advice people to build their own internet.

That sounds nice! Do you know of any offline linux-compatible software that could pull this off? I'm happy to try it on myself. What I don't understand though is why do I also need to share my browsing history with faceless americ
