    Same for France and Spain, which is what I am familiar with. I am expecting it to be true all around. The map of France shows maybe 100 castles? If you include castles, forts and c…

    I know, I am in the same range of points and still asking questions has always been a bit scary. I remember spending 2h writing a question for what I thought was a complex c++/comp…

    The evidence that humans would naturally be designed to sleep “multiple times a day” is quite mixed. “Multiple” does a lot of heavy lifting here, when basically most evidence point…

    Well of course as you pointed out the legitimate one would be copying voices WITH permission (yours, someone you know who gives authorization, through contracts for movies/bots etc…

    This drives me crazy when dealing with various contractors in my area. They often only answer by text, and can take a little while to do so. Not a big deal. But If I send a message…

    From looking at how that was done, it seems they (the paper you linked) used an older paper which looked at which names are frequent enough and more biased toward a certain demogra…

    Yes possible. But really that video of them features the word prominently (even on the thumbnail) AND that vocabulary estimation website. The video/podcast is just slightly over a …

    Not sure how to understand that. You mean as the best engineers? Funnily at my company, the few engineer that did the majority of the work before AI still do the majority of the wo…

    I have a similar issue. I tend to have a very “structured” type of writing. Say on slack or Reddit for example. Using markdown formatting. Lists with bulletpoints etc. And I tend t…

    Yes. I mean if you look at the corpus basically HALF of recipes are Chinese/Korean. They do quickly acknowledge it, but definitely not a balanced set.

    I still love learning, especially outside of tech. Been working in the ML field for over 8 years, and while I went into it because I liked the field, I did lose some interest in le…

    I also like meaningful commit names. But am sometimes guilty of “hope this works now” commits, but they always follow a first fix that it turns out didn’t cut it. I work on a lot o…

    I mean “mistakes” can be hard to define. IMHO there is an area of responsibility between the LLM, the LLM user, and the code itself. Did it make a mistake because I didn’t follow i…

    I have still mixed feelings about LLMs. If I take the example of code, but that extends to many domains, it can sometimes produce near perfect architecture and implementation if I …

    I mean I do agree, and on iNat I can clearly see my house and the house of a few other people in the neighborhood. However you can easily find the current owner information for a g…

    I imagine they are taking about 4D golf by CodeParade, as seen here: https://youtu.be/y53UNskR-zU?si=iUfCkxYqkACx955t Steam link: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2147950/4D_Golf…

    I am not sure, but you don’t have to technically bet on assassination. You can bet on an event which would happen as a result of said assassination. X won’t get re-elected. Company…

    The issue is the combined risk of insider trading coupled with the bias of disaster-centric betting, or at least event-centric betting. This means if you have the means to create a…

    Arguably so is “aim/ein etc” and “in”, though more dialect dependent and more subtle. The former for me have a bit more exhale and round sound while the “in” are a tad drier. For e…

    Yes it feels like a full time job just to try to keep up. And I’ve been in AI for close to 10 years so I feel like I have to keep up at least a minimum. An other thing for me is th…

    Might be surprising but I am kinda willing to believe it. Since we bought our house, we had quite a bit of work done by professionals. But whenever I can I do things myself. Like I…
