    For example, https://mydetector.ai/ai-code-detector/ says 90% likely AI. Not that I trust the tools, but there are telltales to me in this function from the site: Object.values(zip…

    Instead of focusing on why having a website is better for customers (100% it is), the article is really an attack on... developers at Meta and tech other companies? I love a good p…

    Honestly, skip planning mode and tell it you simply want to discuss and to write up a doc with your discussions. Planning mode has a whole system encouraging it to finish the plan …

    I’ve really enjoyed Shapr3D (built on Parasolid). Nothing particularly better than the usual competitors but the interface is really intuitive and you can realistically develop on …

    To be fair, that's not exactly what Loper Bright says. It holds that the courts should read the statute independently and not assume that Agency rules or procedures are prima facie…

    I am always worried when I bring development boards on airplanes. I assume most people are reasonable, but I worry for a few that might not be.

    Whenever I see these and play with models like this (and the demos on this page), the movement in the world always feel like a dolly zoom. Things in the distance tend to stay in th…

    I feel like some of the newer standards like CSS Grid instead of tables might be the best way to go. Many HTML/CSS improvements were not just bloat but actually better standards to…

    Yeah, I loved Elm, but the restriction that you can't build your own "effect" modules really made it impossible to embrace. Say you want to use a new web API similar to using Elm's…

    Though, sadly it's not a true image; it's composed as an SVG in HTML. So you can't copy-paste the image into chats.

    Privacy Pass docs [0] cover this, but it is mostly referenced deeper in the paper. I believe the idea is that the tokens returned by the server are "unlinkable" to the (modified) t…

    Couldn't the "test" add some variety of math challenge, thus making a simple proxy insufficient. Obviously, this method would add more noise to the final calculation, but if the pr…

    Thanks. Can someone explain what these are typically used for or link to commercially available variants?

    I tend to agree. If I ask ChatGPT what is the best way to make pasta, it will pull from every source it’s ever been trained on. If it decides to search the web, it will mostly cate…

    The recent Loper decision also expressly says Congress _can_ delegate to agencies, just that APA doesn’t do that delegation itself.

    Is “search it up” much different from a similar phrase “search for it”? The structure of the original quote is “imperative verb, direct object, adverb” but I wouldn’t call that a c…

    Just to clarify, I think you have the terms reversed. Descriptivism is, as you say, describing a language from its everyday usage. Prescriptivism is when you follow a rules body or…
