"The customer is always right" might get misused a lot, but it is correct in this instance.

If a lot of your customers don't like something, it's not something wrong with the customers.

It is literally taking the Lord's name in vanity.

There's also an argument that if you've the technical know-how to dink around the Windows registry and make all kinds of tweaks, you've the know-how to install Linux, or at least, the ability to figure out how to manage it.

I don't think that people do that very much any more, since the medium has changed.

People don't really do things like make blog posts as much as they used to.

Or stuff that is really difficult to get. Part of the diagnostic process for my psychiatrist needs me to arrange a 30 minute interview with a family member (which only works if you have a family member who is willing to do so, believes that ADHD isn't just a personal failing, or has the time to arrange such a thing), or reports from primary school, which most people aren't likely to keep around when they're an adult in university.

If you don't have either of those, no diagnosis for you, and you're out several hundred dollars for nothing.

Reminds me of the bread jesus incident.

It's something of the law of averages. At their core, an LLM is a sophisticated text prediction algorithm, that boils down the entire corpus of human language into numeric tokens, that it averages out, and creates entire sentences by determining the next most likely word to fill the space.

Given enough data, and you need a tremendous amount of it for an LLM, patterns start to come about, and many of those end up the ones that we see in LLMs.

Or if you have good hardware that doesn't need the transcoding. If I was loading up h265 video on my server, I'd need to convert it to h264 or something else compatible if I wanted to use it with my iPad, since it's old enough it doesn't support doing anything but software decoding of that codec, and it doesn't have the strongest processor.

Hadn't bitcoin not been viable on GPUs for over a decade? Most of the cryptocurrency hype was mining other coins on GPUs, or using them to do blockchain calculations for NFTs and things.

At the same time, it seems to be overstepping a bit to be classifying it as equal in severity as CSAM and terroristic content. People presumably aren't being choked to death in the video.

It's not wrong to think of it that way, but at the same time, there's a very good question of why you want a model capable of creative writing summarising your news to begin with.

It's basically like an overstuffed kitchen gadget.

To a lesser extent, so did the Lorax's Aloysius O'Hare.

Where do you buy thick bacon?

A cafe at my uni sells muffins with a centimetre thick slice of bacon in.

I was curious if it's possible to buy bacon that thick as a consumer, and where. The local butchers either don't have any, or just have the same thing slices Coles and Woolworths have.

Good luck!

In theory, they do, but the US not only doesn't recognise the authority of the ICC, they have provisions for a military invasion of the Hague/Netherlands if a member of the US armed forces is tried in the ICC.

Both, because the way it's right and wrong are different.

Sentiment analysis might misclassify some of the data, but it doesn't risk making things up wholescale like an LLM would.

That would make sense, if they were doing something like tracking how often and what categories trigger their moderation filter.

Just in case an errant update or something causes the statistic to suddenly change.

And this was with war-capable vessels in the most hierarchical type of organization. Can you imagine what a shit-show the non-Starfleet federation is?

Probably depends a bit. Starfleet is not the only organisation with their own ships. We know a lot of alien worlds maintain their own vessels, like the Medusans.

It would end up creating some due to inefficiencies, which would contribute to the heat at the end.

Or chicken breasts. That's how you end up a greentext.
