Dark reader[0] has been a godsend when it comes to readability. Sure the content isn't how the creator intended it but most of the pages don't have a dark mode option so Dark Reader's rendering suits my eyes and I find that to a certain extent, it also improves readability, especially for those low-contrast texts.

Maybe! Full-text search is great for text. Command lines have some things in common with text, but they definitely aren't normal text. E.g., punctuation is much more significant. Stemming may not be appropriate. Case matters. Word boundaries are different, and many of the significant lumps aren't really words.
Thanks so much Nick for your feedback, we really appreciate it!

1. For grammatical errors we will immediately correct them.

2. In the first stage Weeiam allows you to earn WeeWolf. We currently have 100 partner companies where users can use WeeWolf to receive discounts on products and we will insert them on the site as per your correct request. Many more partners will be added as users grow.

3. What differentiates us from the competition is that Weeiam manages to pay you for many actions you perform daily without further effort and therefore gives you the opportunity to increase your daily income without having to invest additional time.
Our competitors have much more limited products that pay you, for example, only if you walk, only if you watch videos, only if you write reviews, etc...

Weeiam's potential is to pay users for hundreds of actions they perform daily without requiring effort or time because the app works in the background. Weeiam's ultimate goal is to increase the value of people starting from the increase in their daily income, making the most of their time and the actions they perform.

I hope I have been clearer and thank you very much for the excellent feedback you have given us. We will take it into account!
> sphere of influence

That phrase is a relic of a long ago era. The EU would be more effective if it had more influence on its member states, but it reached a level where it does appear to dramatically reduce the chance of war, but from there, further integration has asymptoted.

I can’t say that colonialism is completely obsolete but influence has become so diffuse and information spread so widespread that even an analysis from that stance is no longer useful.

ten surprising things I learned on my journey to complete the elaborate series of CAPTCHAs required by this website
Has ChatGPT been caught hallucinating on summarization tasks?

My impression was that hallucination happened when it simply didn't have facts in the first place, had conflicting facts, etc.

I thought summarization was generally fairly reliable, but I'd be happy to know if this is not the case.
This is no doubt the weirdest thing I've read all week. Why wouldn't I answer a call from an unknown number?

There has to be some context here because the way you worded this implies what I consider "normal" is completely inconceivable to you.
Personal anecdote: I have Graves disease, and it didn't flare up until a couple years after I finished immune therapy for a variety of severe allergies. The allergies are much better! But my immune system got bored, or something. Correlation vs causation though... causation makes a lot of sense when living it, but it's not proof.

I'm also quite certain my great-grandmother had this same thing, but no would have been able to diagnose her as anything but excessively thin back then. (It severely increases your metabolism and can cause osteoporosis.)
Yes, of course I disagree with these numbers. First, the study says it doesn't take into account the impact of wireless charging. Well, all I do is wireless charging these days, so already the study is worthless in that respect. Furthermore, a lot of benefits it attributes to unbundling, which Apple already also does for quite a while. Finally, these are made up make-belief numbers without any solid backing, given that all these factors are not really included. Personally, I didn't need another cable for the last 5 years, and I am a heavy Apple user. Somebody else was complaining that they need another cable between their switch, laptop, and iPhone. Yes, the cable is what makes the environmental difference here. Ridiculous.
Most confusing one I've seen is @aaathats3as.com from https://cock.li/
In my experience it’s generally accurate when summarizing content provided in the prompt context. Where it can run into trouble is “recalling” (if you can call it that) content that it was trained on.
Counterpoint:

1. Humans were generating massive amounts of false information that Google couldn't keep up with, years before Openai appeared.

2. The people who stand to lose the most are those whose jobs are replaceable: information workers. I cringe hearing "but this is different than the industrial revolution and government needs to protect me".

3. If Openai "stole" publicly posted content, then so does Google, and so does every human who reads anything online.

4. You may be right about brakes. Revolutions that displaced factory workers, taxi drivers, typists -- those were all well and good. But threaten the moneyed class and suddenly we're seeing so-called libertarians (not you, I mean like Musk) calling for regulation.

I don't develop or support anything on Windows. Sure that excludes 99.9% (I guess) of career options involving a computer, but I've still found employment that doesn't require Windows. But once either Microsoft finally succeeds at banning Linux from running on desktop PCs (which is basically what this is about), or every single employer requires everyone to run Windows, then I guess I'll switch careers to farming or something.
The EU can do some amazing things, however there are also many problems. The recent https://berthub.eu/articles/posts/eu-cra-secure-coding-solut... seems particularly dangerous.
Also don't read about the Pfizer vaccine deal with the EU/ von der Leyen. You might loose your trust/ happiness very quickly.

I'm not sure what the relationship between the alleged victim of fraud and the alleged perpetrators is, but I doubt "being a member of humanity" is good enough to imply a contractual obligation.

The allegation of copyright infringement due to AI stealing and remixing/republishing online content may hold water if the argument is constructed well, but I don't think this lawsuit is going to be the one answering that important open question.

The litigant filing pro se also doesn't give me much confidence that this lawsuit will succeed. This seems like a rather spurious lawsuit to me. I don't know why you would possibly throw such resources against the court, but I'd expect someone suing a billion dollar company to at least get a(nother) lawyer.

Honestly, the claim that both not wanting to generate something nice about Donal Trump and that YC seems to be democrat-aligned are somehow "Banned Political Activities" makes me think this person needs help. If one politician's values match more with an organization's goal or algorithmic output that's not "political campaigning", that's just a symptom of thinking alike. If reading all the internet has to say about Trump means the algorithm concludes there's nothing good to say, it's probably time to reevaluate your political compass rather than sue the tool for disagreeing with you.
> cables haven't improved since USB-C, 9 years ago

Not to distract from your point, which I agree with, but that is just plainly untrue. A USB-C cable from 9 years ago almost certainly doesn’t support current standards for power delivery and data transfer.
Thanks :) I wish there was a consolidated list of what kinds of information gets measured that is easy to point to.
We academics pay for Impact Factor (IF). The problem here is that Elsevier is buying IF left, right and center, in a tactic very close (if not equal) to Microsoft Embrace, Extend, Extinguish. If there is a small publisher that has a nice IF built over the last 50 years, and charges $1,000 per paper, Elsevier would buy the entire business or magazine and hike the prices to $2,500 the next day. E.g. The Lancet, founded in 1823, was bought by Elsevier in 1991. Elsevier did nothing to get The Lancet to the top, it was already at the top. Of course, the other big publishers try do the same when they can, but Elsevier is the worst offender.

The problem we authors have is that nobody who has the knowledge has time to start a publishing business (and it's way less rewarding than science itself), and in the end we don't pay for publishing, but the grant (i.e. all of you) do. We authors are funneling money from the tax payer to publishers like Elsevier without asking questions, because all of our incentives are publish on the highest IF you could get, or leave academy. Also, in the hypothetical that somebody started a promising cheap journal, they would get an irresistible offer from Elsevier, Thompson, MDPI or Springer and that would be the end of it.

I've been in talks were people tells you "publish at whatever IF you want, if your research is good, people will notice". Yet, each and every time you apply to anything, they value the IF. If your paper has been cited by 7,000 Q1 papers, but was published in a Q4 journal, it worths much, much less than a paper published in Q1 journal cited by no one. The value of your paper is not made by association, but by a flawed metric that values mainly the journal.

But make no mistake: as an author I don't have to care how much a journal charges to publish, because I will get the money from you. All I care is the journal is a Q1. At Q1 level it's an oligopoly, they all charge about the same, and grants already includes the money to publish, so I don't need to compare prices. My monthly wage will be the same and my CV will get better. The publishers know this, and they prey on you... through me.

It's rather caused by archaic approach of VW to car software. Tesla showed (almost decade ago) how should it be done. Years have passed and VW is not only behind the competition, but still in '00s.

That will probably be an early point of litigation, does the non-profit’s behavior of depriving you from these tools like GPT4 amount to damages such that you have standing to bring this case. So that's a huge hurdle. Might be why it's brought pro se.

In some ways it's a more powerful result if plaintiff prevails though, as it dramatically increases the amount of legal stakeholders in the activity of OpenAI... “You filed as a non-profit, now if you start acting like a for-profit, anyone who is systematically excluded from your business dealings can sue you.”

Maybe the crew metabolic efficiency drops the required resources to a level that one or more systems can change what tech they use (step change), pushing the weight even further?

Without further information about what the systems evaluations are, what technologies this might allow the employment of, and a thousand other points of data there is no way to actually answer your question.

EDIT: You added the part about vehicle sizing while I was replying, which is one of those thousands of data points. There are so many follow on effects it’s quite mind boggling.

To defend this site, that is the claim of the vendor and I wouldn't expect a site that focuses on listing EU alternatives to be critically evaluating a claim like that which hasn't been explicitly nay-sayed by any regulatory agency. Plausible uses a visitor id based upon a hashed + salted user agent plus IP address where the salt is rotated daily. The choice of whether consent is required for that is for the individual implementing site to make up their mind upon, but I don't think the vendor claim is unreasonable.

A similar (but better, IMHO) site that focuses just on analytics is: https://newmetrics.io/
Nothing wrong with having an opinion, but having a strong opinion ("the solution is so obvious, i can solve this in 5 minutes") about an industry of which you known nothing of the inner workings come across as rather ignorant.

Take a good look - this is all the resistance they can muster against formalized "positive" discrimination (i.e. regular discrimination against anyone outside the preferred groups). Things will get worse before they get better.

Naturally they won't acknowledge this preferential treatment any more than the myriad other affirmative action programs, and will continue to claim unrivaled victimhood.

"perfectly satisfactory in car software" is arguable. ID4 still doesn't have OTA update in US. Navigation and UI software inside the car is OK only because of Android Auto (CarPlay). I've also witnessed a number of instances where Nav software would freeze and apparently the only way to reset it was to park, get out of the car, close the door, wait few seconds and then get back in.
If someone has an issue with their lightning connector shorting out once or twice, that could be chalked up to a manufacturing defect. If it happens always, which they said it does, then it's almost certainly not.

My grandfather was a fisherman. Had a massive heart attack that killed him at 60. I barely met him. Years of hard work, exposure to the elements, the ever-present stress of the next catch, family worries and a general life of subsistence were not kind to him.

He was "lucky" he died too, if he survived he would've faced a disabled life in a place with no health care or general services beyond basic. Such was the life on the remote undeveloped seaside.

His wife and kids though surely would have liked to be left with something more than the fishing tools, boat and shack...

I'd say 3 weeks or more if possible. Where do they cap it to 1 week? In Sweden the employer has to allow you 4 weeks of uninterrupted vacation during the summer months.

Heh, one time I asked for vacation 6 months in advance. My girlfriend had planned everything, booked all the hotels etc. And one week before the vacation they said I couldn't go because everyone who wasn't fired had quit and I was the only developer they had. In the end they agreed that I could go if I brought my work laptop and had my phone on 24/7. This was about 2 weeks after I had been on my first stress related sick leave. I got a panic attack at work and ended up at the psychiatric emergency where they told me to stay home 2 weeks and that I needed antidepressants (to which my response was "I don't need any f*cking pills, I need more consultants!!" but they couldn't help me with that. I stayed home 1 week staring into the ceiling before going back to work. I was going on vacation soon anyways so I thought I could endure 1 week more.

Had a hard time disconnecting during that vacation.

One doctor recommended me a 4 month vacation and told me "go to India or Peru and do something completely different" and I quit my job and did just that. Should have done that earlier.
