The reason LLMs are and will be so powerful I think is that they in essence add up the intellectual output of everybody who's output is available online.

Classical AI was about some genius trying to devise the most genius computer inference algorithm. But any single genius can only do so much in limited time and it is difficult to make them work together.

Whereas LLMs are not genius, they are simply using statistics to predict what is the accumulated intellect on the internet. They are simple but they combine the output of millions of minds, which no human genius could ever do.

They are a brain addition machine, rather than super-intelligent by themselves. But when you add together the outputs of many minds you get powerful general purpose output.
Ha, interesting, thanks. I thought it was a in a book, but maybe I read about the game.
I work fully remote and I've never felt more alienated from my colleagues. It also hurts that everyone is in Europe and I'm in India. Getting an EU Visa is next to insane for Indians.
Additionally, I am an ambivert, as it turns out. I preferred fully remote because I'm hearing impaired, but I would love to go to a physical office 3 days a week and meet people. I might go to a Wework from Jan.
Maybe you should watch other creators then. IME better creators have higher respect for their audiences and create better, even entertaining sponsor segments.

I have even been introduced to services I pay for now via these segments. Nebula, Backblaze, DBrand, and Audible are some of them.

I’ve been wondering about these… do people really need to be reminded to “subscribe like comment down below” in every single video?

Don’t people know the creator wants you to do it and only do it if they feel like anyway?

What’s the point of everyone saying it in every single video?

It’s just aggravating to me, but I wonder why they keep saying it?

But the rear wheels in a FWD are rarely designed to push the whole car. They are designed to hold the car off the ground, so 10% of braking, and that’s about it. Once you want to apply torque to them, they either fold under the car, or you just bend whatever is holding them there.

Yes and we know that Google always follows through with its products.

When you operate in a saturated market, there is not much room for growth by reaching more customers. So in order to generate growth, you need to sell again to your existing customers and you need to do so often.

iOS 12.5.7 for the iPhone 6 came out this year as a security update.
Personally I dont want anything more than 1080.. My OS UI, text and games are perfect for me at 1080p. I defo dont want to use more electricity and lose frames pushing 4 times as many pixels for games.
You know they make 4K screens that are the same size as regular 1080p right?

The point of 4K is clarity and legibility of text (at > 1.5x scaling), not size.

I don't get people who say 1080p is good enough for coding. They must have eyes at a lower resolution than mine not to being able to tell that text at 2x scaling is so much more readable and pleasant.
Thanks for the info. To reply to your points:

> I only point them out to illustrate that it's dangerous to make assumptions about what words mean or to think of the law as a battle of semantics.

To be clear, I was never claiming this is legal. I figured well enough that it probably isn't. My question was, what is the legal basis for it.

> copyright is a right to exclude

Note the comment I replied to wasn't talking about copyright (at least not explicitly). It claimed there is no right to use software without agreeing to its EULA. The entire question here seems to be about whether an EULA is a contract or a (copyright?) license, so that itself isn't clear. But in either case, you presumably have the right to at least copy the work as-is, so I'm assuming no copyright violation is happening at least up to that point.

> the act of removing "the 'agree to the gpl' part of the installer" may have created a derivative work

Your rebuttal hinges on the implementation of the bypass mechanism. I'm trying to get to the heart of the matter, and I don't get the impression it should depend on that (but do correct me if I'm wrong). If you need a concrete implementation to discuss the crux of it, consider this: you can just as well imagine bypassing some program's agreement by modifying the environment around the program, and thus not actually creating a derivative work. (In the simplest case, imagine a naive program that just checks to see if a "is_licensed=true" exists in some config file, and imagine the user setting that manually to bypass the check. The program stays intact.)

I think the heart of the question here is: if you know the intention was to make you agree to the license, but you never agreed to do that, and you managed to get the program to get past that point... what exactly did you violate? It certainly doesn't seem like you violated copyright, given you had every right to copy the work. And it doesn't seem wasn't any contract you were bound by - was there? So when/why is that (not) legal?

What’s to “prove”? I don’t have to prove that Twitter turned off its API after Elon bought the company, that’s a fact. I also don’t have to prove he had something to do with it, it was well-reported at the time (admittedly that isn’t quite the same level of fact, but he clearly had the influence necessary and if he didn’t agree with it he could have stopped it from happening). I believe I don’t have to prove that if Elon said Tesla should shut off its API because he didn’t like something someone built, that it would happen. He is the CEO after all.

He’s clearly one of the most impetuous CEOs in the tech industry. If you think that won’t affect people’s decision to partner with the companies he runs, well, you don’t have enough experience with these sorts of deals.
Just to clarify their argument wasn’t that it works, it was that it is a trend. That’s why the author says don’t fight it.
We have a similar configuration at home.

I am from Brazil, my wife from Finland and we live in Sweden. We speak English to each other.

To our two and half year old daughter, we speak our native languages and she learns Swedish in daycare.

In the beginning we showed some YouTube for her. The Brazilian Mundo Bita is great with catchy songs and amazing animation. My wife wanted to show the Moomins and we got some Swedish Babblarna as well. Disney+ has a lot of content already translated to every one of our languages. But we noticed that her mood swung wildly after her television stint, max 1h and not even every day. So we decided to not watch TV, for now at least, and concentrate on books/coloring/etc.

We read/have plenty of books. Sweden has great libraries with many titles for the little ones, also in different languages.

If I would rank her skills: #1 Finnish, #2-3 Portuguese/Swedish. This past month she started saying small things in English too, even singing the Happy Birthday song.

All kids are different, and interests ebb and flow, but I am hopeful that, in the future, Portuguese and Swedish might help with other languages like Spanish/Italian or Norwegian/Danish if she needs them for whatever reason.

It is impressive how kids can learn so many languages. But very tough, a constant effort to translate and encourage her to speak the native language of the parents. Specially in the beginning she would confuse who-speaks-what and we would scratch our heads when she made a phrase, in baby-speak no less, mixing different languages in it or modifying words to fit the logic of one language. Very interesting.

The main thing I learned is to find what interests the child and go that route. Be music, books, TV.

It’s also losing more money than it has since it went public. And it turned off its API because Elon didn’t like it. The latter is what makes it a reasonable comparison.

Work during COVID had a lot of other things impacting it (e.g., extreme stress, being new to RTO, massive macro economic shifts).

The word "control" comes from "controlling confounding factors except for the factor being studied", which is definitely not the case when comparing COVID era work to pre COVID work.

4k to 1080p is a perfect integer scale. One pixel at 1920x1080 is a 2x2 pixel block at 3840x2160.

Changing the resolution of the desktop indeed has hideous effects in Windows. If my external monitor loses power for half a second, all my windows get forcibly resized to fit within the limits of my laptop's built-in screen. It is inconceivable to me that someone might actually want this functionality.

And yet somehow, if I close a window, unplug the external monitor, and reopen the window, it will open in the inaccessible virtual space where the external monitor used to be, and I have to use keyboard commands to move it onto the visible screen.

I don't want either of those things to happen, but I'm prepared to believe that I have to live with one or the other. (I'd rather have the second problem than the first one.)

Why are both of them happening?
Once you go with a higher resolution, you realize how blurry 1080p is. For gaming, 1440p 240hz is a pretty decent middle ground considering quality, price, and fps.

The one liner test cases drew my attention as well, it's pretty neat. Does any other language provide this sort of thing? I guess it wouldn't be hard to implement decorators for this in python
That's what I just wanted to say. I basically had the same opinion as the OP for years, but just because I had nothing else than 1080p (usually 24"). About 3 years ago I finally bought a 27" 1440p screen and it felt incredibly much easier on my eyes, instantly. I don't know how much of a difference actual 4k would make right now, that's why I won't make such a broad statement that 1440p is my sweet spot, but it's better than 1080p@24", for me personally.
I'm still not sure where this $5k number came from. The description says:

> REVR could cost as little as $5k without rebates and can be installed in under a day.

What are the conditions in which it "could" cost this amount, and has it already been achieved?

Most games these days support DLSS and FSR. You should never run games at 1080p output, but instead whatever internal resolution you can handle, upscaled to 4k output.

A big factor is also the lack of predators. To help avoid predators, it helps to have good eyes and the brains to process what you see. If there are no predators, then other factors exert their influence. Large, complex organs consume lots of energy and "harmful" mutations that shrink them will accumulate because the lack of energy on prehistoric Mallorca makes that an advantage.

One of the other important things is not too out-shadow people's own creativity.

If you start with high-content flashy demos that paint a certain picture, people aren't going to activate their own thinking-muscles & dream up their own uses. Having lo-fi roughed out assets is less intimidating and more open ended for the target audience.

Ambient does a much better job imo targeting people who would use it & be excited, by turning off & turning away the those who just want to be razzle dazzled by flashy demoes. That shit is actively harmful to have as your audience.
It's even worse on iPads. They nag you incessantly to update to the latest OS, but woe betide you if you do. The new OS eats too much memory so there's nothing left for other software, and countless background processes are killing the last bit of performance. But they still rate this device as “compatible” with that OS. Apple sure knows how to squeeze the last pennies out of unaware users.
I like the feel of the syntax, short, concise, clear, powerful and understandable even on first read. Combining the best of all worlds together.

Is that enough to give up the ecosystem from any other more established language? Most likely no.

For this to take off, it needs seamless interop with some other more established language or it needs to have some other major unique selling point. Rust had borrow checker. Go had goroutines. Both backed by big companies btw. Just 10% better syntax or 10% faster speed, without an ecosystem behind, is not going to be enough to tip anyone over, except the curious hobbyist explorers.

Hopefully some ideas from here will spread to other mainstream languages.
Oh man, I once worked at a place where, for a time, all the programming staff got put on our own floor. JUST programmers. We didn't have managers (was a small company). It was seriously awesome. Not only was it really quiet, but basically all conversations were 100% "compatible" with how I was thinking. There were never people talking about some totally leftfield thing that totally threw me out of my focus zone (until a sales person would bring a client up to our floor to give a tour). It was a pretty unique experience. I don't think I've worked in any other office like that before or since.

Running out of state table space is a very common issue for firewalls subjected to a DoS or other unprecedented high traffic situation. The only thing OpenBSD-specific here is probably the very conservative default table size.

For DNS servers that are set up with rate limits, keeping state on the firewall is pointless, so it's probably best to skip that (on OpenBSD: `pass no state`, I think) -- the destination server itself knows best what's abusive traffic and what's not, so on the firewall, do nothing except count the packets...
It might be overloading the term, but I am partial to using "enshittefication" to describe the phenomenon of products and services getting worse over time.

This seems an absurd take but the absurdity is all in one direction - you can go the other way and maybe find reason again somewhere in the middle:

>> It is about the limited availability of charging infrastructure

You begin most days at home, do you need more than the charging infra? You start each day with the ability to drive 2-4 hours. Are you planning to spend more time driving most days?

An EV sat at home has 80% range. You don’t leave them fully charged usually, for the sake of battery longevity but you absolutely want any excess solar in your remote property being added to your EV rather than sent back to the grid.

That may be more range than the gas car sat next to it on an idle Tuesday when an emergency hits. Who keeps a gas car fully topped up at all times?

With an ev in a remote location, you start every day with 80%. That gas car you meant to fill up when you were next in town? Good luck because:

>> Evac situations also tend to coincide with loss of grid power (fires/hurricanes/flooding)

This means the gas pumps are off. They use electricity, plus the staff are evacuating anyway.

Need to cross a now flooded road? You might have to hitch a ride across in an EV, your gas cars intake might be too low and end up with the engine hydro-locked.
Software support is another big one. My 6.5 year old smartphone is still strong on battery, but it stopped receiving updates long ago. At some point, some stuff I needed would not work anymore. Fortunately I found a version of LineageOS for it, but it was a lucky accident - the vast majority of phones become waste at that point.

I really hope vendors get forced to open up their hardware for the user to install their own OS once they stop supporting a device with updates.
You don’t need a transmission if you have hub motors. It’ll be sat on the garage floor, so it would be a great surprise if it was running.
