Not really for building code, at least. It's a common problem, but it's not insurmountable. Use the equivalent of 'make -j1' or whatever...

This requires engineering on the part of compiler writers, but ultimately is solvable, given enough funding.

(About the compiler writers part: I'm thinking about GHC Haskell and the like... the Clangs/GCCs of the world will have no problems because of Translation Units. Things may change when Modules are a practical choice.)
When I was a kid there was this new thing that came out called Wikipedia. I couldn't convince anyone it was useful though because they pointed out it was wrong sometimes. Eventually they came around though.

AI is like that right now. It's only right sometimes. You need to use judgement. Still useful though.

I'll point out a few of your errors, no time for them all.

Those that are big enough to do major damage
to an aircraft carrier can be intercepted by aircraft

Quite a few in this sentence alone.

Hypersonic cruise missiles exist. These are as fast or faster than air to air missiles, making interception tricky to say the least: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypersonic_weapon#_China

Ballistic missiles are also generally going to be traveling at hypersonic speeds. As they descend at steep angles from space. Even tricker than cruise missiles traveling somewhat horizontally.

Third, a US carrier hosts about 40 fighters. During high tempo operations a single bird might be in the air up to 10 hours a day or so, but this tempo can't be sustained for long - it's not like you can have 40 simultaneous fighters in the air 24/7. Planes need maintainence, etc. Surely even you can understand that there is a limit to the number of simultaneous missiles these fighters and the rest of the fleet's defenses can intercept. There are a lot of variables that go into that number, and we're talking about classified and rapidly-evolving hardware, but I don't know that anybody thinks it's more than a near-peer could throw at a US carrier group.

China is building aircraft carriers to contest
the seas around Taiwan against the U.S.

This is all speculation, unless one of us literally has access to what China's military planners are thinking.

But: no. I'd suggest looking at a map. Taiwan is less than a hundred miles from China's mainland. They certainly don't need aircraft carriers to fight a war in the seas around Taiwan. Come on.

They are, in all likelihood, primarily planning to use those carriers for force projection elsewhere in the world. (And/or for prestige purposes)

There are some informative answers from others in this thread; you would do well to learn about this topic if it interests you.
Ah yes the blind person who constantly needs to know if two lines intersect.

Let's just ignore what a blind person normally needs to know.

You know what blind people ask? Sometimes there daily routine is broken because there is some type of construction and models can tell you this.

Sometimes they need to read a basic sign and models can do this.

Those models help people already and they will continue to get better.

I'm not sure if I'm more frustrated how condescending the authors are or your ignorance.

I haven't found a human that answers every single question correctly, either. You know whom to ask a question based off that person's domain of expertise. Well, AI's domain of expertise is everything (supposedly).

What gets difficult is evaluating the response, but let's not pretend that's any easier to do when interacting with a human. Experts give wrong answers all the time. It's generally other experts who point out wrong answers provided by one of their peers.

My solution? Query multiple LLMs. I'd like to have three so I can establish a quorum on an answer, but I only have two. If they agree then I'm reasonably confident the answer is correct. If they don't agree - well, that's where some digging is required.

To your point, nobody is expecting these systems to be infallible because I think we intuitively understand that nothing knows everything. Wouldn't be surprised if someone wrote a paper on this very topic.
No, that’s a reason to not upgrade, so that I don’t have to replace all my cords.
True about the problem not being specific to Google.

But I don't know about the generation cost mattering. The article seems very clear that a serious, non-AI coordinated effort was involved in pushing the bogus story to the top. Compared to that, "generated by AI" vs. "generated by semi-slaves at keyboards somewhere" seems like a rounding error in the cost structure.
Now consider that 99.9% of humans can't do this, and combine that with the model trajectory and you have a very concerning next 5 years...

Respectfully, that's baloney.

The document is written by the Heritage Foundation and hosted on their website. Leaders of the Heritage Foundation have directly testified to congress that it's their creation. The Heritage Foundation's membership has a lot of common people with former president Trump's appointees. The republican party (including former president Trump) has a documented history of following the Heritage Foundation's recommendations. Former president Trump's own Agenda 47 (hosted on his official website) mirrors many of the recommendations from Project 2025.

It doesn't take much to find any of this. As many folks say, do your own research.

EDIT: Forgot that former president Trump also spoke at a keynote for the Heritage Foundation in 2022, publicly praising the foundation's president, Kevin Roberts, work with the foundation.

It is a growing user base. Streaming services were convenient, now they are not (ads, increased cost, reduced content availability, fragmentation).

> It just seems highly unlikely this is driven by a growing user base;

If you are old enough, there was a time when everyone pirated stuff due to the alternative being rather expensive or unavailable (physical media). Then a golden age of streaming services that were cheap and had high availability basically killed torrenting for the general public. Now people are returning to piracy as the streaming services got worse for reasons I stated above.

That is not what I am asking. I am asking if we can say "sugar consumption halved" just because both consumers and producers found ways to circumvent the tax, e.g. consumers bought sugary drinks from neighboring areas with lower or no taxes, or producers reformulated their products in ways that technically avoid the tax but do not necessarily result in a healthier product.

Sounds like you still have TouchID instead of FaceID. The pandemic was quite a wakeup call for this, with far more people wearing masks than gloves, people using FaceID were set back much more than people using TouchID.

Then Apple just made FaceID work even with masks. Now TouchID is further behind by still not working with gloves, while FaceID works in more situations than ever before. When you don't need to authorize a sensitive operation, just unlock, a paired Apple Watch can also be configured to unlock the iPhone.

Another bonus quirk, from the 486 and Pentium area..

BSWAP EAX converts from little endian to big endian and vice versa. It was a 32 bit instruction to begin with.

However, we have the 0x66 prefix that switches between 16 and 32 bit mode. If you apply that to BSWAP EAX undefined funky things happen.

On some CPU architectures (Intel vs. AMD) the prefix was just ignored. On others it did something that I call an "inner swap". E.g. in your four bytes that are stored in EAX byte 1 and 2 are swapped.

0x11223344 became 0x11332244.
I find that interesting because I see more and more successful developers that explain that a successful developer is someone who has good people skills.

If you think about it, there not intrinsic ground to support the idea that computer science activities in themselves are more "things" than "people". They may be more "things-oriented" right now _because_ it is currently male dominated, but it does not mean it is a fundamental characteristic of the computer science activities.

I find it interesting because it shows the vicious circle of bias:

step1: "Computer science is male dominated" + "men prefer X and women prefer Y" -> "Computer science is therefore fundamentally X"

step2: "men prefer X and women prefer Y" + "Computer science is fundamentally X" -> "Computer science is therefore male dominated"
It seems like application of the Copernican principle should be the default and the burden is on others to show that the Earth and its observers are somehow extraordinary.
Sorry for a possibly stupid question, but I assume a lot of prompts will be duplicate of questions other people have asked.

Poisoning the air, water, and customers is bad for business. Companies who actually have to survive in a free market won't do it for that reason. The reason companies do nefarious things is government interference in markets, insulating companies from competition. And then the government tries to "fix" the problems it had itself caused by doing that with further regulations. Which still doesn't really work because of regulatory capture. If companies did nefarious things a lot less in the 1700s, it was because of the absence of government interference with free markets.

I'm not asking you to do that, I'm glad you're being so honest. You're right the network effect is challenging and fomo/dishonesty is a common attempt to try to circumvent it.

There's probably no easy legal way to do this, but if there were a way to give like $50 bucks of stock to each serious resume uploaded, or double that to anybody who recommends you to their current company [not sure what's involved with that] then it might create more of a sense of "rooting for you"

Spending 6 minutes of my life engaging in political discourse is a far swing from hundreds of individuals producing a movie that took millions of dollars to produce. Both are just as easily digitally repeatable, but the expensive content is likely way more beneficial to society as a whole. I am choosing to engage in this hobby because I receive the means to provide this content recreationally. I fail to see this scaling to anything of any real quality outside of some isolated instances. For instance, some video game enthusiasts are using the work of Bethesda to make a new game call fallout London. It's a knock off fallout game using the base code engine that Bethesda built for their commercial games. The game is exceptional in that it could actually achieve a mostly compatible level of a commercial product as long as you ignore that they're leveraging the engines and story which were developed by commercial interests. In the same time, 10's to hundreds of thousands of people are employed every year to produce video games for commercial reasons. Will they all stop making games if copyright was dead? No, but the vast majority would.

It's possible that some of the inconsistency between metadata and text could just be due to incompetence - it's harder to find a profit motive for dropping legitimate citations. Why wouldn't this sort of metadata auto-generated from the text (aside from enabling fraud, of course)?

Discord is generally snappy but nothing beats Telegram. It just feels like the only remaining desktop client that actually makes use of native OS facilities.

Plus there are scripts to back up the said channels. With Discord I haven't checked (but maybe there are as well).

So mostly (1) Telegram is still snappier and (2) Telegram was there first, more or less, at least on my own timeline of checking chat clients.

This is almost definitely the problem they're facing although I think that description is a little bit odd. It's missing the operative word: "portals". It's the XDG desktop portals service that is involved here. What you need to ensure is that you have a desktop portal provider set up that provides org.freedesktop.impl.portal.FileChooser. What's kind of neat about the way xdg-desktop-portals is architected, you can pick and choose different implementations for different services. This is especially useful outside of desktop environments where you might need to use e.g. the wlr provider for screenshots and screen capture, but you still want e.g. KDE file dialogs.

It's unfortunate that the documentation for XDG desktop portals (and generally, setting up a complete desktop setup when using compositors like labwc or Sway) is relatively poorly documented. I have my feelings about the pervasiveness of DBus services everywhere but overall I like desktop portals.
I don't think that's an answerable question, unless we assume a lot about the unknown encryption.

Feel like it's obligatory to say this for people unfamiliar with Usenet, but there are text groups (think text threads like a mailing list or forum) and binary groups (shows/movies/software/etc). The size growth is due to the latter.

I've been a newsdemon customer for years but they suck for text groups (their headers got messed up a few years back after a move from highwinds backbone to usenetexpress backbone).
