You can trivially produce a web browser by copying and compiling the code for firefox, no transformer needed.
How can whatsapp be better? Android at least has features like scoped storage.
Where is the ios equivalent of newpipe? Where is the iOS equivalent of pojavlauncher? where is the iOS equivalent of libretorrent or syncthing?
Open source is essentially banned on iOS.
What is the advantage of iOS? "Feels smoother"? Totally subjective.

I say credit, because it is not as physical and direct as cash, so perhaps it is perceptually more feminine?
But I will have to check the next time I work with word2vec.
It is more common for people to personify objects (say, a rock or a frog or a random internet user) as male than female. In many languages, the plural for a group of things is male even if it only has one male element.
A simple charachter like pac man is male in a universal kiki/bouba sense, but the female equivalent needs a bow (it is a more complex specalization of its male counterpart)
Obviously, biologicially male-ness is a specialization of female-ness, because females more resemble unsexed creatures in their ability to reproduce.
But in the latent space of the human mind, or in language I think male is closer to "default" and female is a specialzation of maleness. Even the words female or woman are modifications of the word male or man.
Perhaps this evolved out of primative social structures. If women occupy a more domestic social role and men a more nomadic one, then you would encounter more men in the outer world. So you would generally associate unknown things in the external world as being masculine, and would associate feminity with specific inter-village inter-family things of your local world
For example, you haven't even read the first sentence of the relevant material and you are already in a soylent-driven tizzy making lists of synonyms and debating whether we should even be allowed to debate.
2. The response is still too wordy, generic, and boring. So LLMs are not really better players, at least for now.
3. With LLMs, you can produce a ton of text much faster than it can be read. Whereas the dynamic is reversed for ordinary writing. By writing this by hand, I am doing you a favor by spending more time on this comment than you will. But by reading your LLM output I am doing you a favor by spending more time reading than you did generating.
You could probably get away with using an LLM here by copying the response and then cutting down 90% of it. But at that point it would be better to just restate the points yourself in your own words.
Plus, it's only 2048x the address space. It's within the realm of possibility that we will need to upgrade again once this place is swarming with robots.
You have two layers of indirection and one layer of security. If you failed to configure your firewall correctly, you would be better off without NAT because you would become aware of it quicker and not rely on NAT.
NAT doesn't really do anything other than address conservation because of NAT-punching techniques like STUN/TURN/UPnP, which are nessisary because NAT's features are bugs.
But as it turns out, the limit of our growth was that precious currency of desk space. We scoured the ends of the earth and wept, for there was no more desk space left.
>Especially don't blog about it.
If we all bury our heads in the sand, maybe it will go away. After all, our personal happyness is #1. It's our world and our children are just living in it
