> DeepL’s models are trained on the highest-quality linguistic data, with an unwavering focus on excellence. Combining world-class AI with the expertise of thousands of hand-picked language specialists who “tutor” the model, DeepL consistently provides best-in-class translation.

> In fact, recent blind tests show that language experts routinely prefer DeepL's translations. According to the data, DeepL’s translation is preferred: 1.3x more often than Google Translate, 1.7x more often than ChatGPT-4, 2.3x more often than Microsoft

There's no way that's true, because GPT-4 is vastly superior to Google Translate in general -- so if Google Translate is "preferred by experts" over GPT-4, to that extent, this would imply that the test they're using is somehow contrived or unrepresentative of the average use case.
For those you have `unreachable!()` (a hope rather than a certainty):

https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/macro.unreachable.html

In those cases you strike a deal with the devil. The type system won't help you.

Maybe it's an acceptable tradeoff for readability and efficiency.

Maybe you could have modelled the code so it wasn't necessary.

I think you can divide the use of `unreachable!()` in two cases:

1) As a consequence of style (applying LEM to code)
2) As a consequence of low-level abstractions

One can be avoided by remodelling. The other can be tucked away behind safe interfaces.
This is great! OmniDB, which PgManage is based off of, was one of the very few free SQL IDEs that supported a debugger. Granted, the debugger UI was pretty clunky, but it did work.

Misleading title. It outperforms those models for translation tasks.
Well, I think the difference is that for Dutch, people are mostly colocated, i.e. share the same space and have a national curriculum to guide the use.

For English, it's quite different because many countries list it as their official language but may have diverged spellings and meanings and there is no single body to direct the curriculum. The most notable is the US vs. British English and the u in colo(u)r is a mere spelling example. Consider surgery or elevator, which are bigger discrepancies. I remember from my school days, as a non-native speaker, these were much more troublesome and we had a special test just to check we could tell which is which in US and GB English.

Wait, are you saying we have gotten rid of all the crooks in a bank/or those that handle money?
It's butter on my M1 Air too, in Chrome and Firefox. Surprisingly, it's a slideshow on Safari.
By your comment, I assume that you don't see a difference between "not having a commercial relationship with a country" and "invading and annexing a country".
There is a lot of insinuation here without a lot of facts. But I can tell you this: If the world treated transgender people with kindness and acceptance and without constant and oppressive threats and hate, barely veiled insinuations about pedophilia, etcetera,then you would not have a reflexive, advocate-first mindset being so dominate.

Like begets like, but in opposition. Radicals beget radicals, the right and the left.
Male chauvinism ruled the world, but a feminist movement arises, among some, overshoots into female chauvinism, begetting renewed male chauvinistic radicalism.

Radicalism is often necessary to effect change, because radicals don't see nuance, and when you don't see nuance, taking action...even risky action, is easier to justify.

The story has been told millions of times.

If you want better science in gender affirming care: 1) fund it, 2) don't make it scary for the scientists who do study it, as death threats are the norm, 3) dont interpret studies with preexisting agendas.

Identifying who will and who will not benefit from gender affirming care is important, but investigating one or the other can't be seen as claiming allegiance to one camp or another.
maybe i wasnt clear - its listed for sale by name cheap. i am open to other explanations, but im just sharing my experience of what happened. the whois record shows name cheap as the owner. thats the "basis" for my point here. why would they do it? well read about what happened with icann, lots has been written about the incentives and state of affairs today. if you could link to some policy that states this practise is not done (like how some companies privacy policy calls out if they sell your data or not), that would be great, but otherwise baseless comments like this are not helpful
Reading a JSON Config in Zig
In Europe this is often attributed to American cultural imperialism.

TV, at least in The Netherlands, has become a lot more prudish, Music censored, etc.

I've worked (in the internet branches of) Dutch National media organizations, for magazines and publishers. All lament, that "back in the days, a pair of its, or a penis flopping through a scene was normal." All due to American influence. It's certainly not imposed top down.

A dutch beach club owner told me it used to be rather normal for women to be topless on the beach, up to the early 2000s. And that nowadays it's almost unheard of.
Not surprised to see The Economist join the list of major publications cave to conservative concern trolling around gender-affirming care. These have done far more damage to the trans community and trans youth than any of these purported risks combined.

Case in point, plucking out this single instance of weird behavior and slapping on this clickbait title that implies a much more widespread problem. Journalism has completely given over to feeding “well-actually” transphobia for clicks.
The MLRS weapon systems shouldn’t be creating corners if deployed effectively.
this didnt occur to me but its a good idea lol if its automated maybe it could work, i will try and report back!
Someone forging a number is already going to the trouble to find seclusion so that they are unobserved, and to try to match the writing instrument (color, stroke and texture) and the handwriting of the existing digits.

A horizontal square bracket would have been a more effective deterrent than just a line.
Most LLM critics (and singularity-is-near influencers) don't actually use the systems enough to have relevant opinions about them. The only really good sources of truth is the chatbot-arena from lmsys and the comment section of r/localllama (I'm quoting Karpathy), both are "wisdom of the crowd" and often the crowd on r/localllama is getting that wisdom by spending hours with one hand on the keyboard and another under their clothes.
I think it’s notable that they left out Claude, which in my experience has been the best general purpose hosted LLM to date. Given how well known Claude is in the LLM space, it makes me wonder if Claude is actually better than the DeepL specialized LLM at translation tasks.
From reading the docs I see a pretty generic device fleet management framework. What makes this software specific to sex toys besides the intention of the authors and the name? Couldn't you just as well manage - i dunno - a fleet of corporate e-scooters with it?
You should consider including Debian as a distribution.

Not to mention the US has made it very clear that it wants all confiscated property (from, uh [does math] 60-70 years ago) returned. Free elections won't do shit to satisfy prominent ex-pat groups.
For me, number 1 is the worst of the bunch. You should always expect that there will be bugs in processes, input files, etc… the fact that their code wasn’t robust enough to recognize a corrupted file and not crash is inexcusable. Especially in kernel code that is so widely deployed.

If any one of the five points above hadn’t happened, this event would have been avoided. However, if number 1 had been addressed - any of the others could have happened (or all at the same time) and it would have been fine.

I understand that we should assume that bugs will be present anywhere, which is why staggered deployments are also important. If there had been staggered deployments, the. The damage would have happened, but it would have been localized. I think security people would argue against a staged deployment though, as if it were discovered what the new definitions protected against, an exploit could be developed quickly to put those servers that aren’t in the “canary” group at risk. (At least in theory — I can’t see how staggering deployment over a 6-12 hour window would have been that risky).
A Systematic Workflow to Build Production-Ready LLM Applications
I use deepl regularly and it's been far better at translation and context awareness than anything else. The fact they look to be applying llms in a tarhetted way for their business model and product is, to me at least, a great use of LLMs.
It seems like you didn’t understand the distinction between PPE and the project plan for trench boxes. In the case of PPE, the company is providing the safety equipment and asking workers to use it. Yes it’s true that some workers choose not to use ear plugs, glasses, harnesses, etc. (often because the PPE is uncomfortable.) In the case of trench boxes, companies have to keep the information away from workers in order to prevent their use, and the article cites multiple examples of that occurring. Trench boxes require company action and expenditure in advance of construction that is not up to individual workers.

When the contractor rents or orders a trench box, delivers it to the site, arranges for the excavator, or even a crane for larger operations, and lays out the construction plan, there is no such thing as ignoring it. Just in case you missed it in the article, not only are trench boxes required by law in the US, a safety supervisor on site overseeing the operation is also required. The laws were written to prevent individual workers from being able to ignore the construction safety plan, and require company oversight. The only way it gets ignored is from the top.
While being an exchange student in Asia I met an Austrian girl studying in Germany. Her best friend was Iranian-German, born and raised in Germany. When they both tried to apply for renting places close to Uni, several times her Iranian-German friend was ignored by the land lords.

Even though the Austrian girl had heavy accent and technically being the migrant, her "germanic" name and white face gave her access to the most basic thing:housing; something a German born Iranian (studying engineering, well educated and mannered), will struggle to have. One of the landlord she met, an old lady, even explicitly said she was happy "a German" applied and she felt she would take care of the place better.

Similar discrimination exist in Japan, where I lived. All my European expat friends complained about how they struggle getting apartments because landlord silently decline based on their foreigner name.

Very few of them even want to BELIEVE the above Austrian girls story. The common reply is always questioning the story. Maybe some other reason, it's an anecdote, how can she be sure. (when the Austrian girl tell her German friends same questioning occur)

At the core of it the unfriendliness of northern Europe + Germany is a double punch: you're often silently discriminated, and when you try to voice it, you're often gaslighted.

At least in USA or other English speaking places those voices are allowed to be voiced, without condemnation (people will debate it, but we won't even get there for places like Germany or Sweden )
I'm not educated on the subject. Why can't Cuba import the fertilizer and build the machines? There are open source blueprints, like the Global Village Construction Set.
Historical reasons. Windows NT was designed to support architectures with only two privilege rings.
I worked on credit card processing at a Visa Level 1 merchant, 2001-2003. Amex was far more difficult to handle than any other type of card. 13 digits in a card number, 4-digit CVV, other weird problems that other card types didn't have. Small businesses dislike taking Amex because the per-transaction processing fees are bigger.

As a consumer who got in trouble during the 2008 depression, I will note that Discover is less forgiving, and quicker to sell your debt to debt collectors than any other bank.

My take is to avoid both as a consumer, if you can.
It’s objecting to the Cass report, which doesn’t include any new original data or experimental results.

It’s fine to object to bad faith medical publications about an extreme minority, which is being granted authority by the NHS while more benevolent (and rigorous) researchers are being swept under the rug.
So there will be congress public hearings on this, and the CEO will probably be called to testify. The company has been heavily outsourcing development to India, and it's not the kind of cultural environment where a Developer is going to push back and request more time for testing.

CEO will of course blame some low level employees who did not follow procedures...

> If training data contains multiple conflicting perspectives on a topic, the LLM has a limited ability to recognize that a disagreement is present and what types of entities are more likely to adopt which side. That is what those studies are reflecting.

Again, we have empirical evidence to suggest otherwise. It's not that there's an oracle, but that the LLM does internally differentiate between facts it has stored as simple truth vs. misconceptions vs. fiction.

This becomes obvious by interacting with popular LLMs; they can produce decent essays explaining different perspectives on various issues, and it makes total sense that they can because if you need to predict tokens on the internet, you better be able to take on different perspectives.

Hell, we can even intervene these internal mechanisms to elicit true answers from a model, in contexts where you would otherwise expect the LLM to output a misconception. To quote a recent paper, "Our findings suggest that LLMs may have an internal representation of the likelihood of something being true, even as they produce falsehoods on the surface" [1], and this matches the rest of the interpretability literature on the topic.

Claude suffered a bit for me in Italian, not translation directly but asking generic tasks such as "reproduxlce this graph in vanilla JavaScript and html"

That was a few weeks ago however and I didn't test if for direct translations.
That must be recent, as it certainly was not the norm in the UK even prior to Brexit. For some medicines, UK pharmacists are required to split packs as needed to give exactly the number of pills prescribed.

I can't find anything to suggest EU rules prevents split packs - I do see there was a tightening of the rules on how to treat packs if dispensing split backs a few years ago, but nothing since. Do you have a source?

EDIT: At least as late as per the False Medicines Directive going into force in 2019, split pack dispensing was explicitly allowed - the FMD set out rules for the controls required to do so. E.g. the original container can not leave the dispensary until its entire content is used, and the pharmacy can't re-sell or supply other pharmacies with it.
ChatGPT just read that on Wikipedia (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_numerals#Use_in_the_Mi..., https://samplecontents.library.ph/wikipedia/wp/r/Roman_numer...). Notably, Wikipedia's source (https://archive.org/details/materiamedica00bastgoog/page/584...) doesn't appear to say anything about fraud or forgery or tampering, and that explanation doesn't actually make much sense as it would be quite easy to circumvent.

So please don't trust comments that just say "ChatGPT told me..."

Otoh, WPATH stating "Research must be “thoroughly scrutinised and reviewed to ensure that publication does not negatively affect the provision of transgender health care in the broadest sense,” and there only being one paper published after the checklist came into existence seems to indicate otherwise.
Don't underestimate the importance of oral health
Why not do this at a higher level on the python source itself?

I ask because z3 has been used for type inference (Typpete) and for solving equations written in Python.
Frequently the country people are leaving also benefits. Many emigrants send money back to family. Some amount of emigrants moves back and bring what they learned with them. I've read the argument by Bryan Kaplan that this is a big factor why Puerto Rico is doing better than most of the island surrounding it.

Of course Cuba being Cuba makes all these benefits harder or undesirable.
Customers don’t always have a choice here. They could be restricted by compliance programs (PCI, et al) and be required under those terms to have auto updates on.

Compliance also has to share
some of the blame here, if best practices (local testing) aren’t allowed to be followed in the name of “security”.
libpq normally connects to a unix socket by being given 'localhost' as the hostname or no hostname at all.

IIRC it'll also accept a path -as- a hostname but I'm guessing from your phrasing the field validation won't.
This is actually a think that Oculus / Meta feels like they didn't consider and still don't, even tho by their own statics it's the number one use for VR

Some of this I'm sure is my particular usage but still...

Examples: When the controller batteries are low I get a warning in the middle of my session and it sticks around way too long. If a battery dies in a controller the message is undismissible. The software I use works fine with one controller but instead I have to stop what I'm doing, remove the headset, find a battery, install it, put the headset back on, resume the software, and often reset the view because anytime you take the headset off it resets it's orientation.

There are also times where it just says "Fatal Error" and exits when the battery dies.

Another issue is I have 2d software I use in VR because having a giant screen is nice. But, Oculus insists on playing some annoying hum sound in the home screen with the built in desktop viewer. Note: I'm not using the 3D environments as my home screen because that ads more time to get stated. So, in any case, I have to launch something to get rid of the sound. I usually pick a video viewer app because it's very small and then pop up the desktop over it without selecting a video. But, Oculus is apparently unaware of this use case because they break this in some new way every few releases.

The latest is, if you bring up the desktop in the middle of an app, after about 5 seconds it automatically takes you back to the VR app. It's almost like they forgot the feature exists. Other issues in this area are it went from a fairly rock solid feature to one out of 3 times entering into some bug loop where it flips between paused mode (desktop) and VR app mode. Being able to get out of this loop bug has about a 1 in 4 chance. Fixing it removing the headset and restarting the Oculus software on the PC. Then starting whatever apps you were in.

Note that I'm using a Rift-S. I tried using a Quest 3 with Link which tries to give you the same experience but the Link was way way too flaky, crashing 1 of 3 times, when I pulled up the desktop.

Another feature that broke, which I used frequently, was pulling up the desktop and pinning it so it stays visible while a VR app is running. It was a great way to goon.

And, all of this is using porn software which makes it hard to make bug report that will be taken seriously.
And (as you mentioned in your parent post) send people to prison, at least when the case is egregious enough! Or cause people to lose their ability to be employed. Microscopic fines for companies just aren't working. Judgments where they have to hand their customers a token $9 gift card or give them free credit monitoring aren't working. There needs to be real consequences for wrongdoing.
Darktable has some features that RawTherapee doesn't, and vice versa. I imagine that some of that stuff isn't in the Adobe software. (I've heard that recent versions of Lightroom have removed local file management support, which both these programs still have – though don't quote me on that.)

Krita has a lot that Photoshop doesn't: https://docs.krita.org/en/user_manual/introduction_from_othe... .
Agreed. Re:

"- It's on a network, so it needs to be kept updated, because a compromised host elsewhere on the same network will be able to compromise it"

the suggested solution was "an isolated network".0

The problem there is the operator would have to use SD cards to update the adverts... :)
wow....that's such a great example that I never would have thought of it myself.

But...that's kind of the whole point being made here, right? :-)
Which also explains why they, only if needed to cover their back legally, confirm or deny details being shared on social and mass media.

anecdotally, as an Italian i worked summer jobs in the rural side few years ago being paid 4$ an hour off the table, and it was considered a very good pay. I hear all the time of illegal migrants being paid 2/3 $ an hour without any contract
This is simple to add; struct with two fields, and a handful of methods + operator overloads.
There is no j in Latin of ancient times. Both letters v and j were additions in the renaissence era.
Ah, yeah fair enough! I was confused thinking that you were unaware of the existence of the functionality as a whole. Well, as laurmaedje (one of the main devs) said below, it should be easy to add, though it seems difficult to find which size values `big`, `bigg` and so on exactly represent.
Thanks for the insight! Just old school investigation techniques. Hopefully Apple will see this and invest in real tools to catch such obvious scamming.
This is IMO the canonical use case of operator overloads. Are you proposing adding complex numbers to the standard lib to circumvent that restriction, vice addressing it?
FWIW, before someone brings up JSON, GP's bet only makes sense when "binary" includes parsing text as well. In fact, most notorious software bugs are related to misuse of textual formats like SQL or JS.
The actual issue was with the signed code reading the data files that the data file update just brought to surface.

But I don't think Microsoft verifies customer code, they might not even have access to it.
If it's prescribed as number of boxes it changes nothing, as it's then just the number of boxes you need to alter instead of number of pills.
A specific fab had a process issue, that appears to have been rectified in April 2024. Intel 4 is not affected. Other fabs making Intel 7 Ultra is not affected. The issue only noticeably shows up in the highest-end processors, and dropping max clock multiplier by ~3% seems to fix things.

It's not a good thing, but it's not doomsday. The earliest Ryzens 1000s had issues with making incorrect calculations in certain circumstances, and look where they are now. More recently, just a year ago, certain Ryzen mobos literally fried their chips to ~1000 degrees (literally 1000 celsius).

Yes, there are reports of ~50% failure rates, etc... but if you get a shipment of a contaminated batch, it's probably gonna fail, and a single source shouldn't be used to generalise.
I take classes at community college to up/revise skills in foundational mathematics. What I love is the small class sizes, the presence of adult students and the teacher engagement. This alongside the need to finish hw, keeps me on track
