I surprisingly had good results when I told the LLM to only communicate in ASCII memes. It did a fantastic job of summarizing the situation using relevant memes, and the humor was …

I think the parent comment is snark. They're saying that since many Firefox users are saying "Let me turn off AI features, please!" for features they don't want at all, and few to …

I've seen my cats pull on a cord in order to reel in the toy at the end. I don't find that to be all too different from the cow orienting a scratcher. Should I?

For what it's worth, it happens to me about 5 times each summer. But I also welcome spiders as pest control, so it's not a surprise, and I forget all about it 5 seconds later.

I wouldn't call ChatGPT "brand recognition". People know the term ChatGPT, but I don't think they associate it with OpenAI or any company in particular, in the same way that people…

That's all true, but I think the article's point still stands: React trades one set of compromises for another, and regardless of the tool used, software engineers using that tool …

It depends a lot on the rate of change of the document. Documents that experience little change don't need classes because their structure is reliable. Documents that change often …

Location: Upstate New York, ~ 1 hour north of NYC Remote: Yes, open to Hybrid in NYC Willing to relocate: Possibly closer to NYC Technologies: Ruby, Ruby on Rails, VueJS, React, Ty…

Happy to give you my spin on this. I use Vue, but in personal projects I mix Vue and vanilla JS according to page complexity. On pages that need more state management and would ben…

Seems the opposite way round to me. We couldn't conclusively say that AGI is possible in principle until some physics (or rather biology) discovery explains how it would be possibl…

A large part of it is that we maxed out a lot of how communication tech can impact daily life, at least in terms of communication, but economically and culturally got in the habit …

I agree that the quality went down, but I think it might be part of their strategy. I think when they first started, they tried the HBO strategy of putting big money into big shows…

My understanding is that this isn't Netflix's fault. They were king when they were the first major streaming service, and studios and networks were happy to get extra income from h…

Thanks for sharing the link, I hadn't seen that before! Very serious allegations there. > Calling in the guard is not overreach when a city is demanding it through inaction. Is the…

What's your take on the article saying that D.C.'s crime rate is at a 30 year low? Do you feel that things in big cities are so bad that an overreach of powers is justified in an a…

Don't forget: 5) One person with a copper mine and a soldering gun.

It wasn't a criticism of what they were saying (a point on which I agree with that poster), but whether the comment itself was contributing to the discussion or not. It was a very …

Downvoted as this comment feels like it's trying to be witty/upshowing the parent comment without actually engaging with it or offering anything of substance. If the comment was al…

Nah. We just need one source to scrape them and make the results available for others.

The difference is that human researchers have agency--for better or for worse.

Less that AI is cheating and more that we basically found a way to take the thousand monkeys with infinite time scenario and condense that into a reasonable(?) amount of time and w…

ahh, okay. I don't use the service, I didn't realize they had a dedicated UI for it. I assumed it was all just embedded in the text.

Makes you wonder whether the affiliate links are actual, valid affiliate links or just hallucinations from affiliate links it's come across in the wild

The thing about facebook/twitter/etc was that everyone knew how they achieve lock-in and build a moat (network effect), but the question was around where to source revenue. With LL…

Hammering can get loud. But not louder than any motorized tool. And hammering being limited by the energy capacity of flesh and blood doesn't last for long bursts, maybe a few minu…
