Ring doorbell cameras don't move and aren't attached to people's faces. Come on.

>But it's a different we already know

'we' is the operative word here. 'We', meaning technical people who have followed this stuff for years. The target audience of this article are not part of this 'we' and this stuff IS completely new _for them_. The target audience are people who, when confronted with a problem with an LLM, think it is perfectly reasonable to just tell someone to 'look at the code' and 'fix the bug'. You are not the target audience and you are arguing something entirely different.

For the purposes of the article, which is to demonstrate how developing an LLM is completely different from developing traditional software, I'd say they are true enough. It's a CS 101 understanding of the software development lifecycle, which for non-technical readers is enough to get the point across. An accurate depiction of software development would only obscure the actual point for the lay reader.

I don't think he's doing that at all. The article is pointing out to non-technical people how AI is different than traditional software. I'm not sure how you think it's giving AI a break, as it's pointing out that it is essentially impossible to reason about. And it's not at the expense of regular developers because it's showing how regular software development is different than this. It makes two buckets, and puts AI in one and non-AI in the other.

You should read the footnote marked [1] after "a note for technical folk" at the beginning of the article. He is very consciously making sweeping generalizations about how software works in order to make things intelligible to non-technical readers.

Not OP, but a while back I ran weekly for months outside with no issues. It got hot, I ran two miles inside on a treadmill and got the first shin splints in my life. I hear from other runners that treadmills can hurt your form because you run differently on them than on solid ground. Try running off a treadmill and see if it helps.

I work at what used to be Pivotal, now Broadcom via VMware, and do pair programming every day. It was a bit of an adjustment, and I do sometimes miss solo dev work, but pairing does have some real benefits. It is really nice to have another set of eyes to catch mistakes you miss, and it's fantastic for spreading knowledge and onboarding new developers.

One could argue these are minor failure states, but ok, let's change it to anything that loses some amount of progress. Dying in non-hardcore Minecraft is a failure state because whatever you were trying to do was cut short, whether exploring an area, gathering resources, etc.

If you restrict failure states to only mean things that end the game, then games like Dark Souls do not have any failure states, since in Dark Souls you always respawn when you die. Most other modern single player games would also not have any failure states, since they also let you respawn as often as you like.

That's still a failure state. A failure state doesn't need to permanently end the game, just be something you try to avoid.

A decent compromise could be to spell it Turkiye on an English keyboard. The article's url does that already.

I recently switched to Nobara Linux (a gaming focused Fedora spin) and it has run every Steam game I've thrown at it outside of Street Fighter 6 (which runs, but at low settings and multiplayer is spotty). Proton has done wonders for Linux gaming and after over a month without booting my Windows partition at all I don't think I'm going back.

>On top of that come the surveillance measures, the insults, the indignities and the attacks by politicians from these countries, up to and including death threats. This constant abuse of state power has triggered serious stress and anxiety in Assange and has resulted in measurable cognitive and neurological harm.

>Why is a man who is neither dangerous nor violent held in solitary confinement for several months when UN standards legally prohibit solitary confinement for periods extending beyond 15 days?

It is much more than 'uncertainty of the process'. Every prisoner awaiting their day in court is not held in solitary confinement for months.

I dunno, I liked it. Every joke sounds bad when someone breaks it down like I did.

Yes. The joke was that Person A's comment, replying to an article about Jones, makes it seem as if the 'he' in the line is referring to Jones, not the baby Messiah from the movie. B then subverted the expected conclusion of Jones' line "...he's a very naughty boy" with a fact about Jones himself: "he's the actor that played his mum". Person B was aware of Jones' line and played off it.

That's funny, because I had the exact opposite reaction. I was using Consolas, and when I turned on JetBrains Mono I thought "Ah! This is so much clearer!" Just goes to show you how subjective fonts are.
