If it could output PNG, it could be adapted as a code block with its own language in org-mode.

Is there something similar for org-mode?

You can’t. The later values depend on the earlier ones, so changing the early tokens invalidates your whole cache. This is also probably why leading with a question works better in…

As a PoC who has benefited from IRC, I don’t see how they would even know you’re not white unless you tell them yourself. Can you elaborate on your experience?

Is any AI generated image even illegal, assuming originality and difference from training set?

ChatGPT is pretty good at coding. I have been using its LaTeX capabilities, where bugs don’t matter.

ChatGPT passes the kid Turing test!

If you don’t want other humans to remix information you have broadcasted, then don’t broadcast in the first place. It’s not like you haven’t been using other people’s ideas in your…

The Japanese wore masks before Covid all the time.

org-mode has some spaced repetitions tools (e.g., org-drill). I personally don't recommend SR by flashcards too much. It's better to do it more naturally. For example, read books r…

GPL found a way to utilize an evil law to do some good. What we need is to first scrap the evil law, then pass a FOSS protection act. (Besides, a 10 year copyrighted is so long tha…

That’s a you problem. I have never needed such protection. Perhaps don’t do drugs so that you don’t need to demand chaining everyone.

It should be Free. People are okay with literally stealing money from corporations in the name of “tax,” yet they balk at making SDKs Free? Platforms should capture some of the eco…

Not at all. The monolithic App Store has been terrible for users. They even impose censorship on social media apps. Having alternative stores by Meta et al is excellent. More choic…

These encrypted DNS services are usually blocked here in Iran. The unencrypted ones are compromised, too. I use self-hosted dnscrypt.

As a third world resident, I don’t see any solutions to this problem. You can’t give discounts, as that will enable arbitrage.

There is OPT and BLOOM, which need lots of expensive GPUs to run. Not as good as GPT3, IMO. I doubt there will be any good local alternatives in a year. StableDiffusion needed ligh…

This is an unfalsifiable claim.

Running emacs in tmux over SSH can be faster than TRAMP. TRAMP gets very biggy when you have a lot of third-party elisp extensions.

I had this thought, too. Most people probably haven’t read the article at all. They are repeating what others have said the article contained.

This is not true. The probability of ending up with nothing is only one in the limit. The probability for any finite tries is close to one, but not one. The EV keeps growing expone…

security theater + outdated talent

Even assuming your slander and its presuppositions, professing a racist belief is worse than stealing billions in NYT’s books.

> Even without publisher/legal issues it's clear that preservation of digital media for even the next 10 years, and especially for the next 100 or 1000, is at risk. This is pure hy…

You can use the TTY emacs over SSH (or MOSH) without TRAMP. It only transmits the terminal display so it’s fast regardless of third-party extensions. VS Code remote is actually a n…
