    How does that work with data on a server outside of the jurisdiction, that’s freely available to download and re-upload? The ‘local legal presence’ thing might work, but then what …

    I don’t think four months without a major breakthrough is cause to abandon all hope just yet. ;) The wild pace of LLM development is highly atypical, and we’re still in the ‘initia…

    Interesting additional info, IMO this doesn’t deserve the downvotes.

    No, it’s literally a paragraph from TFA. https://ethw.org/Milestones:Parametron,_1954#Invention_of_th...

    From the title I was expecting something about jump point search but this is even more interesting. Bravo!

    Depends on the market, innit?

    > The law required gas station attendants to do it, as a scheme to keep them employed. I wonder what they’ll do next with EVs becoming more popular? Outlaw home charging?

    Upgrade that 'maybe' to 'definitely'. The disc loading on a helicopter is typically much lower than on a quad (excepting crazy designs like the giant human-powered quad) which make…

    Agreed, and also chain and fasteners specifically require the ability to mass produce very small, very strong, very consistent parts. This necessarily needs production lines with c…

    You say that, but wait till I start trying to prompt it. :P

    I was expecting the site it’s talking about to have faked an instant response. Ironically, sometimes it goes the other way and UIs have to fake a small delay otherwise the user won…

    Also “the clock at the top is exact” but the clock (on my phone, at least) is at the bottom. Still cool though!

    Ryobi, but I have plenty of Makita gear too. :)

    Counter counter anecdote, I was just tidying up the yard with my 18V whipper snipper and contemplating the fact that I bought it in 2012 and it hasn’t skipped a beat.

    I think that’s “most mass produced item manufacturers”. It’s just cheaper to ship a new one than waste time trying to troubleshoot.

    Two things: 1) By the time I’ve determined, and expressed to my satisfaction, exactly what I want, I’ve already done the hard work of coding that thing. The rest is fairly mechanic…

    It’s okay to recognise when you’ve had enough. If your workday involves programming, ours pretty normal (for me at least) to not want to do more programming at home. You gotta let …

    It’s been almost long enough to teach yourself programming three times!

    Having spent a large chunk of my teens playing X-Wing on a 486-DX33 you are clearly my enemy. :P I didn’t have to data mine a compatible .exe from the game files but I did have to …

    Sounds a little like the ‘depersonalisation syndrome’ sometimes described by some heavy VR users, where their own bodies start to feel unreal.

    Same (iOS), looks pretty though I guess? Edit: The ‘Controls’ button takes you to a help screen which only mentions keys (eg. WASD) so I guess it’s keyboard only.

    As in, there is no programming language complex enough to describe any program, that is not inherently complex enough to describe bugs? Sounds legit, how would one prove it? :)

    ‘Never’ is a big word in the computing world. 10 years from now a model this size will probably run on a high-end phone. Of course, by then we’ll want to run something commensurate…
