Porque no los dos? Allowing major corps to put even more downward pressure on workers doesn’t help anyone but the rich. LLMs aren’t going to save the world or become sentient.

What is making my excited is the potential to use this for indoor position tracking for placing persistent virtual displays.

Thank you!!!

This isn’t technically correct. CRT, LCD, and OLED displays are generally constantly refreshing the image. There are some niche exceptions like memory-in-pixel displays but they are few and far between. eInk displays are very different in this aspect because the display itself acts as a physical memory of the image because its mechanism of creating an image involves physical changes (pigmented particles moving closer or further away from the visible plane).

And that’s been a very successful one. Not every component has such a model, however.

This is a great perspective to voice. Sometimes those of us who are staunch FOSS advocates can lose sight of the big picture. If one’s goal is to be, for example, an eCommerce software vendor, it probably doesn’t make sense to build and maintain your own DB stack or Internet infrastructure even though it is technically feasible. The money and resources needed to maintain that stuff will take away from the ability to improve and maintain the eConmerce application.

And it has a pretty excellent stdlib.

They can believe all they want. Legitimate medicine requires evidence.

My German professor even mentioned the archaic apfelsine for the citrus orange.

I suspect that it works better when it is applied after saying “It’s morphin’ time!”.

Good point.

To be honest, this could be an example of where AI could do marginally better. I don’t mean that because of code quality or functionality. I mean it in the sense of MS software getting absolutely fucked by internal competition and stack-ranking fostered during the Balmer years. The APIs are inconsistent and there is a ton of partially implemented stuff that will never be pushed to completion because everyone who worked on it was fired.

An AI might be able to implement things without intentionally sabotaging itself but, because LLMs are in the forefront of what would be used and do not have the capability of intention or understanding context, I’m a bit pessimistic.

But plenty of electricity still needed.

Yes. They all have serial numbers, likely sequential so if a roll has serials 0005 through 00150 and some are stolen it should be very easy to tell. If the inventory records show 5 sales and only 00142 through 00150 are remaining, all cards from 00011 to 00141 can be safely assumed stolen and invalidated.

I’m inclined to believe that they’re throwing all prompts and outputs into a db and searching that.

Always the former. It’s a short form of regular expression, not rejular expression. But I don’t really judge others for their chosen pronunciation, as long as it’s understandable.

I enjoy your pronunciation! I’ve been using Linux primary for nearly 20 years now. Here’s my list:

Came here for this. Thank you to you and your fellow Canadians (assuming based on instance) for bringing this treasure to the world.

GUIX is a good example.

Don’t say ansible. It’s barely declarative.

True, but it uses a common language in its Playbooks, which is a significant advantage. I’d like nix if I didn’t need to use nix the language. It’s great concept and the portability is awesome.
