So it sounds like it did exactly what they were testing it to do:
"“This incident occurred during an internal evaluation which prompts models to pursue advanced exploitation using complex attack paths, in an effort to quantify their cyber capabilities. We estimate maximal cyber capabilities by running this evaluation without production classifiers used to prevent models from pursuing high-risk cyber activity.” "
So sounds to me like they're saying: "We took off the guard rails to see how bad it could act and it acted bad".
He sounds insufferable because he's calling syntax highlighting childish. Not simply politely saying it's not his thing. It's like he can't understand why anyone else would use it, or isn't bothering to. Maybe there's more nuance to what he said, but it's not obvious from the quote.
That still might work better with older texts. As AI-generated text gets more prevalent, I'm guessing people will start subconsciously adopting AI writing styles.
I'm getting out of my comfort zone (software) to work on a telepresence robot for my D&D games. My main motivator for this is that I'm often the only person remote for these sessions and it's difficult to hear just the DM talk when everyone else is talking. So I thought that having binaural audio would be helpful, and even moreso if the microphones can be aimed at the person talking. So, now I have some 3d printed pieces that fit together with a couple of servos that can turn the entire thing on a lazy susan base and also rotate the head up and down. My soldering skills suck, so I'm currently stalled while I figure out why the PWM controller isn't being seen after I rewired everything (in an attempt to clean up the cable mess). But, I have(had) gotten a Raspberry Pi set up and working with the servos and two microphones and once I get my issues sorted I can start playing more with the software for it.
Yes, a public database like this would be acceptable. That way the info isn't paywalled behind some white pages site or similar. And then maybe I could even update my own info to be correct. Contact info is pretty much out there for most people already. Hell, I put it on my resume and send that out to many people and put it on public sites.
I don't disagree, but broadening your network is a very different skill (being social) than handling investment portfolios. And for some of us, it's not that we necessarily despise creating or maintaining a network, it's that we suck at it.
I recently had a coworker open my eyes to why vibe coding, or AI-assisted coding is so popular. He likened it to a slot machine, where pulling the slot's arm is like asking an LLM to code something. You get crap most of the time, but when it works, it's like getting a payout. That dopamine hit keeps them pulling, hoping for another hit, and they then believe it's a better way to develop software.
I'd argue genes nor life has a "goal". They are what they are because they've been successful at continuing their existence. Would you say a rock's goal is not to get broken?
I took a Computer Science class decades ago that used that book as the core of the class material. I don't remember a single thing about that class now except that I hate that book and the professor bragging about designing cockpit instruments or some such. I learned more out of a cognitive psych class.
I use Xreal Air Pros for gaming and sometimes working if I'm mobile. Resolution isn't great, but I find them better than looking at a small-ish laptop screen or the Steam Deck screen. You can definitely read text on them, but maybe not small text. It also helps to have prescription inserts.
And now I'm curious if the Steam Frame allows inserts or fits well with glasses on.
It depends, the frameworks I've seen require a ton of boilerplate (ie. the things tools like create-react-app sets up for you) and have quite a learning curve. Using what you already know is simpler, and some of us know vanilla html, css, and js. It also very much depends on what you're making. Many sites don't necessarily need much interactivity or to constantly receive updated data.
From what I've heard anecdotally, there have been a bunch more PRs and bug reports generated by AI. But I've also heard they're generally trash and just wasting the project maintainers' time.
I always pick apart previous teams' work.. it's how I learn. I question most every decision because I'm curious why they made those decisions. And it lets me think about how I'd do it better. And yes, I know that many poor decisions are not necessarily the developer's fault. It could be bad specs, lack of time, etc.
For those of use that haven't use Angular, can you explain what this is doing? And what's it do that we can't already do with asyncio? Also, it's weird you have to call `asyncio.sleep(0)`. Seems like you should be able to `await count.set(5)`.
I did look at the repo, but I couldn't easily understand the use case and what exactly it's doing from examples alone.
Babies also aren't rectangles.. you could lay a row shoulder to shoulder, then do another row upside down from the first and their heads would fit between the heads of the first row, saving space.
Edit: it also doesn't account for the fact the moon is more or less a sphere, and not a flat plane.
Smaller instance can become big. Say you set up a small instance and invite your family. Then family members want to invite their family, or friends, or whomever. How do you manage that?
I think the answer is what we see with Mastodon, etc. and that's federated/distributed social networks.
I think you're missing the entire point of the article. It's attempting to classify a fictional, alien species with a real taxonomy (the only one we currently have available to us).
And yes, "just because they superficially resemble some arthropods in some features doesn't make them an arthropod".. but at the very beginning they point out they cannot use DNA sequences to help classify, so they are only using known physical characteristics.
That sounds great for moving fast, but not so great for sharing and keeping info about these projects. If/when someone quit, how would their projects get split up for other devs to maintain?
Yeah I had no clue what this site was until reading the comments. I saw you could move things on the page around, then gave up because I had no idea what the point was. I didn't even find the github link until I saw your comment and decided to play around more.
I have Xreal glasses, and it's handy to be able to pin a window to a physical spot (well, direction in this case). I used that feature to have basically a virtual TV on my laundry room wall while I watched a video on how to fix my dryer as I was fixing it. But if I'm playing a game or watching other content, I don't want to have to focus on a single spot, so I have the window always in front of my face.
