I'd love to someday see someone eat their words non-metaphorically.
Everything is bug-free until someone finds a bug in it.
I'm seeing some other comments talking about how no one is harmed by AI CSAM. Fundamentally, I reckon AI CSAM is the same as Lolicon, which is illegal here in Sweden. I believe the same applies to Denmark, though I am…
I've always found Google Slides to be a great way to create cute, personal games. It requires no coding, and anyone can play them easily in their browser. Seeing what people are able to do with a simple presentation…
Environmental impact aside, that seems way less hamrful than TikTok though. You'll probably play the average game for longer than you watch the average TikTok video, meaning that your attention span won't be that bad.…
I got 403'ed too (Sweden). Then I saw this in the fine-print on the blog: >Playground launches today for users in the U.S. (18+)
The latter. Maybe it's different in Lisp, but whenever I read code, I rarely care about the exact order of operations, just which ones are actually being executed. In that regard, the improved version allowed me to…
That's a crazy effect. For me, as someone who has a very minimal understanding of Lisp (apart from messing with it in Emacs for at most an hour), the improved version is much more readable.
Not necessarily. NLP is possible to do without any ML. See ELIZA [0] as an example, which used pattern matching and substitution to process natural language. A few simple rules can cover a majority of requests. It's…
Why should one use something adequate when something amazing exists?
There really isn't any proof that they can show, since iknowwhatyoudownload legally aren't allowed to download anything that you're seeding (since that would be considered piracy). IIRC, they only show the filename,…
>LLMs aren't even AI, […] I am very curious to know what you classify as AI then. Do you mean that LLMs aren't artificial? Or aren't intelligent?
The article is locked behind a paywall, here's a better article published by NUPI[0] (unfortunately still in Norwegian, though): https://www.nupi.no/nyheter/nordmenn-markant-mer-skeptiske-t... [0]: Norwegian Institute…
HTML is notoriously complicated to parse correctly. * Is generating valid HTML documents as complicated/difficult? * How much time did you spend on reading the HTML Standard? * What resources did you use? MDN? The spec…
It seems to be playing on Nostalgia, judging by these paragraphs like this one: >The dithered photos look somewhere between a newspaper halftone and an old video game. The processing is part of the fun: you watch the…
No, it's real. Every year, there are several news articles about berry pickers being abused, at least here in Sweden (not sure about the other Scandinavian countries). Here's [0] just ONE of the myriad of articles I…
Wow, I've only ever heard of regional pricing being described as an overwhelmingly positive concept. When phrased as "price discrimination", it invokes a completely different set of (negative) emotions in me. It's…
Neurotypical is the word you're looking for, not "normal".
Non-tech-related stories frequently make the front page here too. It just so happens that this site has a lot of coders because, err, it's literally Hacker News.
I mean, even in countries with extremely high levels of Christianity, such as Romania, you won't be accused of blasphemy for just... agreeing with science. Both Christianity and Islam are pretty similar after all, so…
I mean, AI is not good at writing x86-64 assembly code. Last time I tried (with both Claude and ChatGPT), the AI failed to even create basic programs other than Hello World.
Or like the US solves it, through immigration. In the US, the fertility rate is at roughly 1.6 children per woman (which is below the 2.1 children per woman required for a stable population), and yet the US population…
A constant stream of young workers is required for a sustainable economy. In order to pay for pensions, the government borrows money from young, working adults. This is effectively what happens in pay-as-you-go public…
>cynical optimist Never heard that one before!
It definitely depends on the platform, though. On GitHub, absolutely, work with the garage door up. But on some platforms, it's the complete opposite. Many moons ago, I was making mod for a game and had the idea to…
