As far as I know it's plastic bottle not glass bottle.

You are playing GAN against 100.000 people and computers.

You never win a game of GAN

Qweiuu··on Writing Is My Main Freedom. One Day My Work Disappeared (2021)
Rehabilitation can also fall under 'actions have consequences '.

This means removing your freedom to move and not necessarily turtoring you.

Wtf?

No!

Prison should be either removing you from society because you don't fit (being and having act on liking to kill people for example) OR for forced education/correction of social behavior.

Prison in your sense is torture not justice

It's similar but different.

Your paper makes an existing body a puppet.

The other one adjusts features.

Qweiuu··on FreeBSD spends 7% of its boot time running a bubblesort on its SYSINITs
I probably boot a few embedded devices per day.

If someone did not optimize this this might indicate other optimizations

I also used it for rubber duck debugging/thinking.

I'm pretty sure the current level is not the ceiling of it.

And for the first time ever it makes sense for a large company to put knowledge on purpose into a LLM.

People leave companies but that knowledge is even more critical for big projects and the loss of people as well.

If apple hosts it's one chatgpt internally it is neither.

We now boot so often kernels this is important.

My tv boots a kernel, Alexa's, laptops, cars etc.

And this might be not specifically critical but it's a sign of people just doing something less optimal

Do you normally copy paste company emails, pdf, paragraphs, or source code into a search engine search field?I don't think so.

My company is huge 100k and lucky enough they also see it a s critical and make it centrally available to us soon.

But this will be a problem for big companies: small ones normally care less about these types of things. This means big companies have to do something otherwise they will compete with ml enhanced developers.

Qweiuu··on ChatGPT vs. open source on harder tasks
I'm normally the type of Google person with doing minus or using other tags.

I totally gave that up with chatgpt and the magic of it is that it understands it so so we'll.

Sometimes I also switch to German in the middle of a sentence or use very vague words to describe something if the word is missing in my head.

Qweiuu··on Apple’s new headset meets reality
You compare a small pocket device with a headset?

You don't see the difference? Especially when hiking?

You are then a non sweaty asian?

Qweiuu··on Apple’s new headset meets reality
I hear your killer features and don't care for them at all in any way to put on glasses for them.

I only need real navigation on holiday and I'm pretty sure not taking some expensive glasses on travel. Neither when hiking nor in a foreign country.

And all the other Infos? I don't even use my smartphone for them. Why would I wear an expensive headset to compare a 3€ product?

Qweiuu··on An Apple Headset Is Coming. Can It Be More Than a Nerd Helmet?
I have tabletop space. Our whole system provides them, plenty of it.

Most people lug it around comfortable in a backpack.

And what ar features would you want to use?

Navigation in the car perhaps but even than I would put in a cheap car display in because I don't want to wear something on my face

Qweiuu··on An Apple Headset Is Coming. Can It Be More Than a Nerd Helmet?
Either this will be tremendously funny, niche were it doesn't matter or a very very weird future.

And yes the imagination of suddenly people sitting with not just some vr glasses from anyone but apple ones on a couch isolated from reality oh boy.

Qweiuu··on An Apple Headset Is Coming. Can It Be More Than a Nerd Helmet?
It would literally mean wearing this thing on your face.

Alone from a pure beauty standpoint this would mean destroying your hair and makeup for what?

Probably not for a selfie

I think there is a problem with AR: usefulness vs. Effort.

Effort: Expensive, needs energy (a lot it's a display, needs to track things), needs to be weared, breaks your outfit (makeup hair)

Benefit: ?

I can see people sitting on a couch or in the bed with switch like controllers but
