You are literally posting this comment on a story about CGNAT processing costs being wildly more expensive than a small ISP cares to deal with. To the point where they’re willing to buy and distribute AppleTVs to reduce…
Sometimes. Sometimes it even works, too.
Congratulations on completely failing to understand how CGNAT loads work & their costs, and jumping to a wildly incorrect understanding of the situation
We're just pretending it doesn't now take the better part of 10 seconds for twitter.com to load now? That response times have gotten perceivably, measurably worse over the last few months? Or that these glitches aren't…
Anything beyond four bytes is composed of multiple code points, happily
If there’s anything ancient philosophers are known for, it’s accepting the underlying premise of a question at face value.
Which reinforces the point I was making. Stop trying to win an argument online and think for 5 seconds about what it means for the claim "the human brain is just an LLM" if you're arguing that an LLM is naturally…
That'd be my guess, but I don't really know. They just left the "utf8" type as broken 3-byte gibbled UTF-8, and added the "utf8mb4" type and "utf8mb4_unicode_ci" collation for "no, actually, I want UTF-8 for real".

Thankfully MySQL also offers a non-gimped version of UTF-8 that one should always use in preference to the 3-byte version, but yeah it sucks that it's not the "obvious" version of UTF-8.

Sure, there are two possible coherent responses that would be consistent with modelling the thinking of an ancient stoic philosopher, depending on your modelling philosophy: 1) Actually model their knowledge boundaries…

Even leaving aside the fact that 90% of the slop an “AI” crapped out wouldn’t be worth reading in the first place, of what value is the culture of absolute solipsism you’re proposing? I would think we’re all rather…

This is not just moving but fully inverting the goal posts. Nobody at any point was disputing that a machine can’t ape non-profound or rote or meaningless human output. The original discussion was precisely an objection…
To me it seems to imply a stunningly nihilistic point of view vis-a-vis human writing (or art, where it also gets repeated a lot here). It seems almost definitionally obvious that what an LLM does is not the same as…
This seems like an incoherent objection – they would presumably prefer to be "Google + LLM" and make less money than let the hypothetical IndexGPT eat their lunch and make even less money as a result, while additionally…
Possibly, but is an LLM geared towards interpolating between content likely to even be particularly well-suited to relevance ranking of results that require no interpolation? And if it is, what stops Google from just…
Totally agree, it seems like a messed up system that would be solved by something like that.

Ah yeah, I was speaking to the soldering part and missed the SOC part.
