We're in the worst of all worlds. Sometimes it feels like you only know it's a human because the AI would have over-explained. But yeah, this security company only prodded, what, once or twice a month for 7 months? I mean, if they

They have "clarified" elsewhere on here that the normal citizenry get a legal exemption [waves hands mystically] somehow, and that they're only blocking people when they legally have to. Obviously (to the rest of us) if the

As with anything word-gamey involving internet, you will probably have to trim down your dictionary. While I'm very glad my "sxxg" beat their "txxt", the first probably shouldn't be allowed (although there are

Analogies are not the problem. In fact, an analogy is like a good knife; sharp, removes problematic parts, and totally unethical unless it knows the motivations of its wielder. Seriously though, yes it is obvious why analogies are so often

This article in a nutshell: AI will never be ethical or safe, because no tool can ever be ethical or safe, without it knowing the complete motivation of any person using it and every person who might receive its outputs. Wasn't the art

It's interesting; I'd imagine very similar design briefs (friendliness, breadliness, etc) The ICBINB font is almost a semi-serif, almost like a sans serif that's slightly melted, whereas I'd say the crumpet is fully seri

No, I agree. That said, I think a lot of that particular shift is down to a) increased individualism b) an emphasis on the healing power of personal boundaries and c) the rejection of unity as an overriding good. People are far more happy t

Yeah, certainly tickles a few neurons. I feel like BDFLs are akin to the concept of village elders; they're not immune to corruption or scandal, but they often have this beloved status that can paper over a lot of cracks. That's p

I love how you intentionally cropped off the first two words of that sentence, try to make out that their 30 word side note was actually the whole point of the 800 word article, and you STILL didn't manage to make them sound as malicio

Here's a tiny bit of missing context. This blog is for LinuxServer.io, who build repositories that produce free docker images, for free, paid for by donations, for a bunch of open source software. By the looks of things, they are liter

I just tried it with phi3.5:3.8b-mini-instruct-fp16 - it didn't work with the base question, though interestingly the reasoning decided that strawberry was spelt s-t-r-a-w-b-e-r - which explains why the AIs have such a hard time with t

Yeah, it was paper cuts - for example, if you don't have git installed inside your devbox, it wouldn't work because of different glibc versions. Which would be fine, but my shell prompt uses git. So there has to be a nix version o

My experience of Devbox on Linux has been highly disappointing. I gave it a good go, had it running on my main project from February to May. In case you hadn't realised, the very concept of having two sets of binary distributions on on

Cunningham's law baiting - I love it! So yeah, turns out it's nothing to do with the 8266's board, and everything to do with the chosen relay module. Since it has nothing to do with driving the relay, it doesn't need to

Ahh! So it's not the ESP that has an extra connection, it's the relay breakout board. That makes much more sense. Yeah, I guess you would need to sound the doorbell every boot, and that might be inconvenient in places with a lot o

Am I missing something? Neither schematics nor my limited understanding of physics explains why you need to, nor how it is possible to, bend one of the pins to disconnect GPIO0 (chip-row, 3rd from the left) from the reset pin (edge-row, 2nd

As is often the case, the truth is far more complicated. Firstly, the bridge - while up to code - did not have the kinds of buffers that could have been installed, or arguably should have been installed [1] It isn't wrong to say that i

To compile it you'll need to tell it to link to libcurl, e.g. with -lcurl on gcc: curl https://ifconfig.me --libcurl ip_fetcher.c # Output: your ip address, and a file ip_fetcher.c gcc -o ip_fetcher ip_fetcher

Yeah. Lots of red flags in that EULA, including bits that don't seem to make any sense: "You agree any legal dispute involving ManyCam services and software must take place in the state or federal courts in Montreal, Quebec."
