To be fair, even local, small language models fare pretty well in such things (both explaining and writing).

But in that case there shouldn't be any invalid moves, ever. Another tester found gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct to be suggesting at least one illegal move in 16% of the games (source: htt…

salaries would rise, making it more costly, but motivating a few people to continue working there Sure, and they wouldn't be wrong to do so, just like they're not wrong now. We can…

The reality is that fossil fuel is still necessary, choosing to not work in the oil industry doesn't change that. If suddenly no people chose to work in the business under some bel…

hm soldiers are only expected to follow orders that to the best of their knowledge are lawful, and are held accountable for following unlawful ones. The law actually covers a lot o…

I don't think things are as simple as that. Maybe for example there are some technological or scientific breakthroughs with cross-domain application that come as a result of work t…

In general I dislike advertising industry, just like I dislike the banking industry, or the gambling industry, but I think the comparison to a crime syndicate is not a good one. Th…

hehe I'll repeat a cliche, that everyone's either working for one boss or working for multiple bosses. From my experience, working for a good boss can generally give more perceived…

I don't think charging rent for consumer broadband equipment is common in many countries, at least not in Europe.

I think they mostly earned their market dominance by aggressive marketing -i.e. pestering the search engine users to install Chrome, or bundling it with most Android devices. I fee…

Perhaps I didn't phrase it properly. I meant, "the concept that we should be able to choose the amount of risk we want to expose ourselves in". Which is generally accepted as a per…

I agree, I was trying to follow the only line of reasoning I can think of that would rationalize the existence of such laws in a way that doesn't break the concept that we should b…

Can, needs or should , I would add. My perspective doesn't seem to be very popular, however I could never understand how laws that are intended to protect us only from ourselves ar…

Ah, I guess I'll just lie and if they somehow lock me out or give me trouble, let's just say it's their loss more than mine. Streaming services should remember they keep customers …

hehe yeah, though it doesn't have to be a bad thing. There are quite a few brilliant mavericks that never have and never would be able to fair well doing that -it would crush their…

Speaking for myself, how I interpreted it is that there is some relationship between how unskilled developers do their job and what takes place during actual farming. When I first …

True, but there should always be a rewarding progression for someone that doesn't want to be a manager or change role. Because if the only rewarding path they see is to switch empl…

The software running on a specific ROM might not be able to change (assuming we're talking for devices using mask ROM and not EEPROM) but it doesn't mean the code itself is suppose…

I am sure that she will, and that she is also his rock already. My mother's story is very similar. When I was young, I was self-centred and didn't appreciate how strong she was, ho…

- Most businesses don't provide Internet Services to customers, so they wouldn't need fast (internet) links and servers for this - However their own employees are typically consume…

I don't think most people that are like this rationalize it like this and make a conscious decision to act that way. It's more of a psychological compulsive thing, reinforced by be…

I kind of know why I don't like it: It's javascript-heavy and likes to behave more like an app than a good-old website. It loads the messages dynamically -I never liked infinite sc…

Old news but definitely good. No downsides that I can see for the consumers. Sadly we have since started seeing all big companies move to a SAAS subscription-based model so in prac…

I think in practice the boss would primarily evaluate the negative impact (or the risk) of the public reaction against the company/organisation versus the positive impact the contr…

a) I think BBC produces good content, but not good enough to warrant the current cost of a TV license. b) Even if it did, I still would not pay for a license, as a reaction to its …
