It always feels weird to see so much more complaining about Firefox than Chrome and Edge, while it's still so very much far ahead in terms of respecting user choices. All AI featur…

I use the web version and when clicking an artist's name I only see a description for well-known ones. Other channels don't show any description even though the YouTube side has on…

YT Music would be be better if I did not have to double check every of its suggestion for AI generation. Some accounts to make their AI use public which is nice but there's no way …

Buying a cheap secondhand motherboard is still less lousy than losing access to a game collection. I did that with a 13 years old computer and it cost 50€. I agree that the current…

I live in Japan too. Sure there's very few trees in cities and more would help, but at the same time it's so hot that I doubt this would make cities significantly more livable in s…

Firefox's reader mode works really well on the article, I wonder why it's not the default for unstyled pages.

I would bet on the sunscreen being a better protection since it also protects against reflected light, but UV umbrellas are so much more convenient. Takes 2s to take out rather tha…

Summers are very hot and humid. Expect max temps of 36C high humidity throughout July and August, possibly the best part of September. Some trees bringing down the temperature by 2…

Tried to buy LTSC IoT from there a while ago, got rejected for not being a business. Normal people don't deserve Windows without the permanent disrespect of user choices apparently…

Can run on modern 64-bit windows too with otvdm: https://github.com/otya128/winevdm

Another way to think about this: if the compiler has a miscompilation, the user is usually not blamed for the mistake (unless gross lack of QA). If the LLM makes a mistake, the use…

If we get precise detectors and LLM posts don't get shown by social networks recommendation algorithms as a result, the chances of people starting to talk like LLMs get lower.

We can measure false positive rate. The detector in the arricle is 85% accurate (not sure about false positives, but let's assume) which is too low to make conclusions, but enough …

The article mentions that AI texts are often caught by multiple models, so hopefully text from newer LLMs could still be caught without updating the model?

The classifier does not seem so big, I wonder if something like it for English could be used in a browser extension to run against every single paragraph being displayed ? If the i…

According to 3 out of 11 tested detectors, the other 8 giving a human rating. The only reasonable conclusion is that those 3 tools are broken, cannot conclude for others. I'll keep…

Yes, I dislike this kind of take so much. It keeps being repeated as a truthism and a way of putting down people that don't do what the speaker wants. It's fine to disagree, but th…

If people develop long COVID after catching COVID (even before the vaccine existed), but not after taking the vaccine, then the cause is the virus not the vaccine. Those weird comm…

Oh, it did not feel AI but Pangram does say AI, high confidence. Good catch. (I'd trust an ML algorithm that only has to classify in two boxes, thus easy to evaluate, over my own g…

As much as I disagree with the general consensus that the article follows of "delegating non-automatable work that requires thinking and understanding to the machine because it is …

Vaccines were very effective against the first variant, and got less effective with later ones. People forget about the timeline. Article mentions the delta variant at which time v…

> Maybe I’m a bit weird, but I like seeing all these warnings: “You have unsaved work! Are you sure?” One of the reasons I don't like to reboot: Windows taking a few seconds to sho…

If Chat Control gets through, it means the Parliament approved it, which means the EU people voted for politicians that supported the idea. If the EU got dismantled, the same polit…

Doesn't wine have various rules to remain a white-room implementation? Not sure using LLMs which have possibly been trained on leaked Windows sources would be compatible with that.…
