What is your point?

You didn't make a point yet.

You claimed I misunderstood, then quoted a sentence that starts with "if".

Obnoxious? Yes.

Opposite of what I claim? No.

"Samsung Electronics informed its executives and employees that data entered into ChatGPT is transmitted and stored on external servers, making it impossible for the company to retrieve it and increasing risks of confidential information leakage."

Yes, they used it. Did you read any further?

"These actions clearly put confidential information at risk, prompting Samsung to warn its employees about the dangers of using ChatGPT. Samsung Electronics informed its executives and employees that data entered into ChatGPT is transmitted and stored on external servers, making it impossible for the company to retrieve it and increasing risks of confidential information leakage."

"everyone"? What are you talking about?

Have you ever worked in any sector that has security policies?

Even if you haven't, perhaps spend 2 minutes using a search engine?

Here is a first page result for you: https://www.tomshardware.com/news/samsung-fab-workers-leak-c...

They don't have to match the market leader, they just have to be "good enough".

There are oodles of use-cases where sending your data to an outside provider is a complete no-go. In these cases OpenAI/Google/whoever-products aren't relevant competition.

No. They are not like us. Fundamentally not like us.

If you ask them to reason, then their text-prediction works differently, because it now predicts text containing reasons. They do not actually reason.

I know it is hard to believe, because the results are (usually) so impressive, but this is nothing but text-prediction.

I am not objecting to the finding or the show, I am objecting to the casual use of "prove" where something has merely been plausibly suggested.

I just love the "plus the two missing legs". Made me actually lol.

Perhaps I am old-fashioned, but "proved" is a strong word for a two-day experiment of a single waitress with no control of outside variables.

Tipping is great, if it is optional.

I feel in many parts of the US it is now expected, if not demanded.

This is bullshit. If your business model doesn't work without tips, you need to raise the base prices. And in pubs and bars and such you need to pay your staff a proper wage.

Tipping is great, if it is optional.

...then in a few years, people won't even notice that they're simply scanning a code on their devices and adding them to whatever home control system they wish.

The sentence you (partially) quote starts with "if" and ends with "wish". Cough.

The sub-headline says everything you need to know: "Gadget makers, unsurprisingly, are hesitant to compete purely on device quality."

I have heard bad things about the keyboard, compared to legacy Thinkpads. How is your experience?

One of the early customers was the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, so, wild guess, they probably used it for medium-range weather forecasts.

Elena Buckley can write; this was a well written text. But I didn't find anything much interesting in the writing. Sad.

I think this will be the only bit I remember:

[Fifteen-year-old] Landon thought for a second and nodded. “I do think the Sphere is cool,” he said, looking me in the eye. “But it means more light pollution. I’m trying to see the stars.”

If they aren't qualified, then you have to train them. If they don't have your values, you have to integrate them. That is complicated, takes a lot of effort and costs a lot of money. Everyone who thinks anything about the problem is cheap or easy is delusional.

What is the alternative? Just let the population age?

a higher birth rate (aka make having children more attractive) is the only long term solution.

well, it normally would be, in our situation the climate likely will interfere with any long term plans.

the "significant societal changes" are immigration.

as you can't change the birth rate overnight, and even if you could, it would take ~20years for the kids to begin earning, there needs to be a short-term solution. and that is immigration.

good thing immigration is so popular in rich western societies at the moment.

In canada physician-assisted suicide is legal, basically everywhere else it is not.

What do you mean by "waste of the spec"?

I really don't know, but I _suspect_ it will accept 2TB cards.

I had the same with a _much_ older device, which accepted 2gb, even tho it said otherwise.

This only works with gmail, with outlook coming soon.

So it is not comparable at all.

Thunderbird is an email client, this is an interface to proprietary email services.

* There is microSD from 1999, max capacity is 2GB.

* Then there is the 2006 update microSDHC, max capacity was 32GB.

* And since 2009 we use microSDXC, max capacity is 2TB.

* In 2019, the next update came out, microSDUC, max capacity is 128TB. As far as I know there are no actual products yet.

You need a reader of the same type of your card or higher. Otherwise, it might not work at all, or you can only read the first x gb of your larger card.

I am not knowledgeable, but I know how to use Wikipedia.

strong recommendation for everything Maciej Cegłowski has ever written.

especially the talks are very much worth your while: https://idlewords.com/talks/

The same as with other assets: Someone will buy it from the bankruptcy auction.

> So long as you monitor your battery charge you know the vehicle will get there

ahem, a BEV has __a lot__ more failure points than just "empty battery"...

sending a complex machine down a tube will _always_ carry the risk of the complex machine reading down. pneumatic tube "vehicles" are simple, they can not break down.

I am not an expert, I don't know which one is better or more reliable, but your claim that once you monitor battery charge, everything is hunky dory is wrong.

I don't think I will convince you, but that is training as well.

Yes, in the beginning, it feels terrible, because you hit the glass too hard, but after some time you adjust your tapping and hit the screen with the minimal force necessary to register a touch.

Yea, it will probably never feel as comfortable as your thinkpad, but once you get the hang of it, it isn't the difference between "wonderful" and "sucking".

Everything sucks without training.

I am faster on a touchscreen than most people are on a keyboard. I have seen teens who are ~50% faster than me.

It's just training.

We need statistical significance.

is not the same as

Statistical significance is enough.

These are two different things.
