    From Gemini pro: You should definitely ride the elephant (or at least lead it there)! Here is the logic: If you walk there by yourself, you will arrive at the creek, but the dirty …

    1. "Suspected" is just that, suspected, you can't penalize papers based on your gut feel 2. LLM-s are a tool, and there's nothing wrong with using them unless you misuse them

    I really don't see why it's not possible to just use basically a "highlighter" token which is added to all the authoritative instructions and not to data. Should be very fast for t…

    It's really not that hard to come up with ways to commit fraud if you want to. On the other hand, it's very easy to make such mistakes if you don't know to avoid them. This charact…

    Not only common, it's become a requirement to review papers if you submit one yourself. Yeah it's not ideal for multiple reasons (what you said + prompt engineering grad students d…

    The "so called Long COVID" really just means "I got covid and I remain unwell in some way, long term". I'm not sure it needs to be questioned if those two qualifying things are giv…

    (Wasn't me claiming that, read usernames) Yeah, but you are, at least seemingly, missing the point: the scripts he was referring to in context weren't the legal disclosures but the…

    The article states that he was fired because the company had financial problems, and not reading the required stuff was used as an excuse

    But then this is also an argument against spontaneous emergence of life, right? Sicne mirror-life could just emerge on its own, instead of evolving from regular life.

    It seems you only want to call MVC frameworks frameworks? But there's millions of other types of frameworks for thousands of purposes. Framework is a generic term (for which the de…

    I'm not sure forking the repo would create a forked version of the 'software' if the fork's sole purpose is to develop a pull request. But I guess it's somewhat ambiguous langauge,…
