With the peoples' dependency on gmail (and maybe other services like drive) I wouldn't recommend any of my friends to tie the same account to a Google's AI product that may or may not get them banned for asking…
It's as if Microsoft decided that people who haven't already left Windows either have no choice or just don't care, so they will tolerate everything. Microsoft is not wrong
It doesn’t really work like that. The companies which have the will and the budget to host their own LLMs typically require a ton of other, much smaller, models as well. They have internal security requirements,…
Most adults don’t read or hardly ever read for pleasure- they stop way before Alzheimer even starts to manifest itselft
That depends on the workload. When buying for on-prem inference, MI355x is quite capable. It still requires a ton more ops time, not every dc handles it cooling-wise, and you have to be careful with the model selection,…
Lots of games’ updates break popular mods, introduce launchers and/or break linux compatibility and/or online mode, remove music with expired licenses, censor something and increase system requirements. Sadly we’re way…
>>if all I need is shelter for a day, would I necessarily care whether it lasts more than a week An interesting choice of a metaphor here. If I needed a shelter for a day, I would have bought (or rented) a nice tent. Or…
Unless you don’t intend to age, you too will become old and sick. As will, hopefully, almost everyone else. How is it wealth redistribution when most people will start as recipients, then move to being the donors and…
>>It 's not an ATS. >>No human can read that many resumes well. So I built something to rank them, helping me decide which resumes to read first Translation: it's an ATS. >>the system was designed to rank resumes, not…
I would have agreed that making teenagers read way above their (life) experience level may scare some off of returning to the same books after growing up, but am not so sure anymore. Most adults don't read period - if…
My bad- support is too wide of a term, and I meant it in a sense that Valve is quick to respond when their hardware stops working. I got my deck fixed after the warranty period, for example, with very little fuss. They…
For the inevitable minisforum machines comparisons - it's not as bad for Valve as it seems. You can't just add a dedicated GPU to a cheap miniPC with an integrated graphics- power delivery and airflow will have to be…
For us- sure. For most of the internet users- very likely no. Social media and video streaming IS the internet for the majority
Especially the kinds of people people who tend to create such monstrosities- they either move up or move on (to the next victim)
It was really easy to tell which is which for the vocals. On the other hand, the only sample in which I didn't hear ANY difference is Ennio Morricone's, to the point where I couldn't really tell it apart from its…
A truly fascinating part is that feature and quality-wise EGS is still, after years of development, miles behind Steam. Epic likely has talented devs and clearly invests a lot of money into all of this, but it took them…
People in general can't be trusted to follow the rules. That's why we have the inforcement. Students are just little people
Apart from all the other things everyone mentioned, wired headphones never really become technically obsolete. I can still connect my 15-year-old pair of headphones to a laptop, and they work just fine. Sure, I swapped…
Actually it does work for those invite-only trackers, especially in niche fields. Unlike most public trackers which are either dead or on a life-support, member-only and invite-only sites are still kicking. And you are…
But they kind of are (a cult band). Most people in the world know Metalica while hardly anyone ever heard any of the Sisters Of Mercy's tracks. Normal people don't care- they just enjoy a ballad or two. I've long since…
I didn't state that Ars Technica specifically mandate LLM use for their authors. What I did state about them is that their editorial standards are lacking, and they tend to produce a lot of clickbait. IMO the industry…
I'ts an open secret that even the larger news outlets mandate LLM use. They buy subscriptions and have guidelines on how to mask the output (so that it would read less AI'ed), how to fact-check the links and the quotes…
The idea of practicing these random interactions is also to get accustomed to rejections from the assholes. After all, they aren’t the majority- most people are actually quite nice and often appreciate a company (or…
And it mostly happens in government funded and/or commercially viable sports, with public schools where kids train for free, scholarships, numerous competitions etc. To gather those selected elites we take an enormous…
A lot of the apps, not just the banking apps, but food delivery etc, restrict using alternative keyboards, leaving you with a default one, which is especially jarring for a multi-lingual countries where you typically…
