It's more about how you use them. Asking a general-purpose model like ChatGPT precise k8s questions might prove counterproductive; however feeding the entire k8s documentation into an LLM like Gemini and asking questions that way is invaluable. Not just the documentation, but your entire cluster config. Like you said, "blindly trusting LLMs, you'll find yourself in trouble" this is true, but the same can be said for StackOverflow or any other resource. Sifting through StackOverflow to find the exact answer to your question (and then understanding the answer, and hoping that it pertains to your environment, and version etc) is much less efficient when you can ingest the entire docs, your config, your environment, and your question, and have it spit out exactly what you need in whatever format you need. You can even web search with multiple questions derived automatically from your main question, to gather multiple sources which are aggregated and referenced in the answer so you can easily cross-check for hallucinations. StackOverflow isn't even as easy to fact check as LLMs considering the in-line sources.
Is your implication that non-profits shouldn't be able to keep money on hand and should spend anything they have saved ASAP?
Cash or treasury bonds, if you believe the thesis.
They did, they flew over the same set at Area 51 (/s???)
but older hard drives like the ones I’ve shown above are remarkably tolerant of being opened. That’s not to say I would leave it operating without the cover for an extended period of time, but for quick data recovery purposes in a decently clean environment, it’s fine.

The airflow while the platters are spinning keeps dust off them, and as long as particles don't stick and cause excessive "thermal asperity", the heads will still work. The latter is what makes transient bad sectors appear.
The purpose is to have a bag-holder with deep enough pockets to absorb any selling pressure by the whales who own substantial crypto holdings. That's it. That's the whole reason.
Oh, the dreaded WinModems! And other Linux-incompatible hardware. To help with this research of which hardware would work there were several dedicates sites that attempted to collect info from Linux users on which drivers to use, etc. It's all so much easier now.
You'd be surprised. I know a few people who couldn't really code before LLMs, but now with LLMs they can just brute-force through problems. They seem pretty undetered about 'trusting' the solution, if they ran it and it worked for them, it gets shipped.
What percentage of USD transaction volume is made up of scams, fraud, Ponzi schemes, and extortion rackets? What percentage of BTC?
In my construction, all the work is done by an alternative interpretation of "the".

The Crown example still works as the Parliament is not selected by the monarch. It is not elected by the monarch. The monarch does not possess the power to reject them. Yet, the Parliament are still referred to as "the Crown", and possesses the executive power of the Crown.

Equally so, the Governor General of any Commonwealth Nation is free to reject the orders of the monarch, as they possess the executive power of the Crown. The monarch is also free to fire them for doing so, as the monarch also has the power of the Crown. Both are on equal footing. In the words of Whitlam "Well may we say God save the Queen, because nothing will save the governor-general."

Multiple people have possession of the executive power in such systems, even though the word "the" is used to refer to it. That alone is not enough to indicate that a singular individual controls it.
A modern reasoning model is exactly a feedback loop.
The propaganda machine just needs to kick in. They will all be doing Elon salutes in 6 months.
You keep waddling into my comments specifically to taut your mistaken notion of “the invisible hand of the free market”, and it’s not welcome - mostly because it’s demonstrably not true, and also because you have a history of moving goal posts when presented this data that knocks down your assertions.

Kindly go away and chew on this while you do so: if everyone started their own billion-dollar business like you claim it’s possible (and plausible) to do, then that means the cumulative wealth available out there is literally infinite and currency has no relevant function.

So for currency to be worthwhile and billion-dollar businesses to be viable, there must be finite resources. Furthermore, since humans cannot be trusted to act in the interest of society, then regulation is needed to ensure equitable outcomes and minimize harms.

Now go away and leave me be.
you did say no offense, and i took none. Be well.
There are indeed some aluminum electrolytics hiding on Quantum drives. They look sneakily like tantalum caps, but they're just cans hiding inside a plastic cover. Here's one where I accidentally broke the cover, revealing what's underneath:

I'd be really hesitant to say anything involving humans and human judgement under uncertainty is trivial. What if the customer wants the car to drive aggressively, maybe speed a little where it "seems" safe? Should the car stop for an object that might be a plastic bag or a child's backpack? Even manual drivers are difficult to "verify" because accidents and traffic violations depend on interpretations of events, which is why we often have to go to court.
> I thought that americans would be able to impeach him or congress/senate/judges to stop him, but it seems nothing will stop him.

The Republican party holds the majority (barely) in both houses of Congress. In order to impeach, a majority in the House of Representatives has to vote for it (unlikely) then the Senate becomes the jury for the trial, and needs a two-thirds majority (extremely unlikely) to convict. The only way an impeachment is likely to happen is post-2026 elections. If the Democrats (there is no other party, unfortunately) gain the majority in both houses and a supermajority in the Senate (or the remaining Republicans are more centrist, unlikely), then an impeachment and conviction could happen.
If Uber or WeWork are tech companies, then I’m sure people are willing to stretch meanings of other fields too
All it takes is installing cameras and if anyone is caught up doing stupid shit the shoptime is over for them, permanently if it's anything serious.

I remember one clown kid in my class back in the days put a hottish drillbit to another's kid neck acting like a cool spy or something like that (we were 14 years old, luckily got only a mild burn which healed quickly). The teacher punched him in the face, probably not with full force but it was not a soft slap either, and banned him from the shop for some time. No incidents after that.
I assume that the same folks who claimed unemployment and consumer price figures were inaccurate under Obama and Biden will have conniptions over this.

The syntax might kind of suck but this will actually be very useful to have.
Yeah...this. I'm not so concerned that AI is going to put me out of a job or become Skynet. I'm concerned that people are offloading decision making and critical thinking to the AI, accepting it's response at face value and responding to concerns with "the AI said so...must be right". Companies are already maliciously exploiting this (e.g. the AI has denied your medical claim, and we can't tell you how it decided that because our models are trade secrets), but it will soon become de rigueur and people will think you're weird for questioning the wisdom of the AI.
SMS were expensive so everyone looked for messaging alternatives that only use data. WhatsApp became the favoritr, but concerns about US companies (especially in the last months) have led many to migrate to Signal, the second most popular option. The Netherlands, with its relatively small population and relatively high population density, experiences stronger network effects than other countries.
I haven't had anything resembling cash or investments in years!
Oddly, "Home Ec" for me was all about baking and knitting. It was basically "home ec" is for girls, shop is for guys.
The universe has that property too.

But no, most LLMs have a tweakable 'temperature' parameter that introduces some randomness and sometimes have very interesting results.

I am pro crypto and I absolutely could not steelman this.

Well let me put it this way.

From the perspective of crypto, crypto doesn't need the government. Honestly, the way eth has been running since the move to PoS, sort of operates with a reserve already. Crypto the technology, crypto the ecosystem does not need this. Its kind of stupid and as the article makes out, would have cypherpunks rolling in graves, unless the US goes the whole hog and converts entirely to crypto (so we can publicly audit bank holdings etc, and the government cant issue money) but that's unlikely. Honestly, adoption should be driven by making crypto more accessible without compromising security, and nothing else.

From the perspective of the government, it might make sense to have a reserve if they were going to do some kind of integration/development of crypto technology. Even if it was just to bring a wafer of stability to the platform while they participate.

However, the people that this benefits the most are the traders, so my cynicism is very high here. What shits me the most is that this brings honest to god sovereign risk to a sector thats meant to be asovereign. What if the next president dumps it all at a loss?
How are you defining value here?
Think before you act.
> Recently, upgrading from v3 to v4 in a Next.JS project, which was supposed to be a no brainer, turned out to be a four hour ordeal.

You might think that is too long but that amount of time to migrate IMO is short.

What I am dealing now is a mix of styled components, SCSS and global styles. 4 hours is not even close enough to deal with half of it.

I will take TailwindCSS any day over this mess.
Oh man, and I thought the current JS status-quo was already full of vulnerabilities and privacy risks.

If I had mind-boggling amounts of money, one of the things I would do is start an organization to name and shame and give anti-awards to websites that most abuse javascript and whatever-this-will-be. Or a dang mutual fund: "Like an index fund except we don't support companies with websites that require a ridiculous amount of control over the client computer."

Wait, who am I kidding: A real activist tycoon would probably just become a shareholder and make demands.
In the world of JavaScript its the person who uses the most tools, sometimes all of them simultaneously.
>I never said to deplete the endowments.

But you specifically advocated for stripping a university's non-profit status, partly on the basis of having an endowment. Therefore it's pretty reasonable to extrapolate that you don't like the concept of endowments, even if you're not explicitly advocating for depleting them.

>Not sure what you're on about with "the right" and "humanities programs."

The point is that the right like sport programs, but the left thinks they're boondoggles, and the left like humanities programs but the right thinks they're boondoggles. Getting rid of sports programs is a good way to piss off the right, and for them to defund humanities programs next time they're in power.

>Do "humanities programs" bring in loads of cash?

You'd rather than universities stop doing things that generate cash for their educational mission?
I remember when social media was the hype at the start of web2, and a bunch of people came in saying everything would be social.

Then the same thing with cloud.
Big data.
Bitcoin.
VR.
Ethereum.
Web3.
NFTs.

I mean AI is cool and it helps with some stuff. And it's also not going to be this epic panacea where rogue coders turn into the best entrepreneur they can be. To throw out such takes is just short sighted hype.
The Chinese college application works way differently from American ones. The admission rate is meaningless. Zhejinag University is state assigned 985 university (there are in total 9 of them). Believe me any students in elite high schools in China will be very happy if they can be accepted into Zhejiang University. Most of them unforunately don't have the score to even think of applying. It technically is not applying. Students take the once a year exam, if they don't score higher than top 500 in their province, don't even think about trying to apply Zhejing Univ.
I knew that TAS meant “a computer” but for those, like me, who forgot/ didn’t know, TAS stands for “tool-assisted speedrun”.
That’s free markets.

Capitalism just means private people control the capital, rather than the state. Beyond that and you’re in different forms of capitalism. There’s no requirement of competition.
Assuming you're correct, Elon Musk and Donald Trump are about the least qualified individuals in the America to resist them.

We need accountable politicians, not businessmen and property moguls running things.
Call it slop coding.
Anti-Ichthys? I can't ignore the feeling of really dark vibes coming from all this turbo-capitalism or AI cyberland, whatever you call it. If this batch of turbo-capitalists get hands on real AI, we'll end in a high-tech concentration camp in a matter of decades. We'll have blockchain and inalienable rights to custom emoticons (from a pre-approved collection), but also metrics that guide our daily lives, performance reviews and corporate offsites in reeducation camps where we'll have to repeat that machines are also humans.
It might be funny to use this as a software versioning scheme. ("What do you mean the next version after v3 is 20A?")
So? The Economist wasn't created one day ago.

If the complete test suite were enough, then SQLite, who famously has one of the largest and most comprehensive, would not encounter bugs. However, they still do.

If you employ AI, you're adding a remarkable amount of speed, to a processing domain that is undecidable because most inputs are not finite. Eventually, you will end up reconsidering the Gambler's Fallacy, because of the chances of things going wrong.
I'm pretty sure that whatever your spouse perceived as "anti-social behaviors and entitled attitudes" in group of elementary school children is not a reasonable indicator that men in the UK are unfit for schooling and employment. It's kind of troubling that you'd jump there from such poor evidence.

If you seriously believe the market is going to crater, save up some money to snatch up bargains in the aftermath.
Also by using “standard boilerplate” they are using language with meanings well established by precedent. Craft your own version in “regular English” and it’s much more open to litigation.
Have you never noticed this feature before? I’m starting to feel old. I was there, three thousand years ago. I was there when the strength of men failed. I mean, I was there when both the web and Firefox were really unreliable. We realized how much pain it was causing people to type things into the web browser only for it to crash and completely lose all of their hard work. Or for the webpage to throw up an error and cast their comment into the flames. We decided that the browser should save that text somewhere, so that if (and when) the user goes back it can be placed back into the form as if by magic.

But I agree that it’s stupid that Mozilla now feels you need to give it explicit permission to do this rather than implicit permission. But since only you own the copyright to the comments you write, maybe I can see the point.
It's really really hard to 'aim' a 6km deep hole. Hitting a slab of tough rock can deflect the drillbit off course. If you remember the Chilean miner rescue in 2010, who got rescued by a new hole being drilled - they had 3 seperate holes being drilled at the same time as backups, just because they were worried about the success rate of actually hitting their target. And that was only 0.7km underground.
Library users can force a compile error when new variants get added, using a lint from rustc. It's "allow" by default, so it's opt-in.

Speed of light is very relevant for actual performance sensitive software, not just shitty overly chatty trash.

While in practice the latency is over an order of magnitude larger, the speed of light round trip distance between two sockets on the same motherboard is likely on the scale of 1-2 nanoseconds which is already several cycles. Once you're talking about warehouse sized datacenters the speed of light distance can get into the microseconds even in a straight line through vacuum/air.

This seems like an easy "no" - why would we go through the effort of the House doing a spending bill, as constitutionally required. Seems implicit, and also traditional. Since the US has never done otherwise, that s the way it was when the US was great the first time around.
> In neither case can evil.com read that information

What stops evil.com from having an API endpoint called evil.com/returnBankCSRFToken that goes to bank.com, scrapes token and returns it?

CSRF tokens are just part of an html form - they are not hidden or obscured and thus scraping them is trivial.

When I go to evil.com, it calls the endpoint, gets token and sends a request to bank.com using said token, thus bypassing CSRF?
Yep. LLMs can get all the unit tests to pass. But not the acceptance tests. The discouraging thing is you might have all green checks on the unit tests, but you can’t get the acceptance tests to pass without starting over.
I really don’t get why you would want to serve security.txt, it just invites an avalanche of automated spam.
Yep.

Strategic reserve in BTC would be incredibly stupid, but at least some people may believe in the made up arguments that would justify it.

Strategic reserve in ADA / SOL / XRP ? Even the die hard crypto fans know it's pure corruption and scam.

Guess who will benefit the most from the inclusion of those 3 ? None other than ... the US Crypto Czar David Sacks.
History of function calls:

- goto/jmp to instr

- vtable lookup

- hash and lookup in a dictionary

- run a Large Language Model
A curated sequence of logical commits assembled into an idealized history is often much easier to review than the real history. However, to rewrite history well enough for that you need....

* a solid understanding of interactive rebasing, including `fixup` and `reword`.

* `git add -p` for adding partial sections of files

* `git commit --amend` for patching the last commit

* `git commit --fixup [COMMIT_ID]` for attaching patches to commits further back in history.

* `git stash` for pausing progress while you fix up an old commit.

* `git rebase -i --autosquash [COMMIT_ID]~` to apply the fixups

* topic branches that never get too big or drift too far from the mainline, because rebasing often becomes infeasible when repo snapshots are too far apart.

* A low enough error rate that you don't screw everything up when rewriting history (which is a reasonable critique and argument for why you shouldn't attempt this in the first place).

I can usually manage this, and efficiently enough that it's worthwhile — and my colleagues appreciate that my PRs are easy to follow. But as a reviewer, I don't insist on other people putting in the same investment.
Would you agree that the Strategic Oil Reserve has exactly the same qualities?
Steelman is a bit of a stretch on this move. It sounds to me like the government is seeding doubt in its own reserve currency and propping up a different currency. The only sane thing I can think of is that it's a hedge against a complete loss of faith in the dollar. But then the case would have to be made for this over going back to gold.
Same as with vitamin D and covid?
> Democrats: why aren't you more engaged with this?

They have minorities in both houses, and the Republican majority is currently refusing to impeach the president for seizing unconstitutional powers to do things that they want to see done.

This has shattered any sane legislative process: Even if legislators reach a compromise and pass a new law, Republicans will just ignore the parts they strongly dislike. Again.
At this point, if they make it inconvenient to browse the web, I'll just browse less.

You can use isopropyl alcohol to remove the sticky nasty rubber and at least make the thing usable again.
Spending time in a company that designs and manufactures real products will cure anyone of this conspiracy theory. There’s probably an exception for companies that don’t have any warranty and don’t have to suffer returns (e.g. the stuff you buy from Temu). Any company that has to build a reputation and suffer the economic consequences of warranty claims will not be doing anything to intentionally make their products break down over time.

Once you’re close to the engineering side of physical products you also realize how hard it would be to make products that break down precisely after the warranty period is up. Most failure modes get spread out over a very long time (years/decades). Attempts at intentional obsolescence would start cutting into your warranty period very easily.
you can detect FM with an AM radio - "slope detection". This was in the back of my head when i typed this comment. A memory of picking up KFI on a tooth filling when licking the lid from a pudding when i was a kid. I had the real silver colored fillings. I used to get zapped, every time, and it was painful. It had to have been the semi-conductive amalgam, my arms acting as a dipole, and my skull and body the ground plane. But ancillary to that, i remembered the little electronic hobby kits we had, and a wire, a resistor, and a speaker was about all you needed to hear KNX 1070, a clear channel broadcast AM station in Orange County, CA.
