I love and hate it at the same time, just like my browser tabs hoarding, it means I currently have 218 open documents on Notepad++ (and 96 browser tabs). I might not even need them anymore, but it's always "I'll look at them... later".
For the browser you can use something like Session Buddy. Save the session and move on secure in the knowledge that the tabs are there IF you need them.
And when the world was still flooded with money and the music was awesome (so 2004), Jeremy Clarkson did a series about inventions, one of them being the jet plane, and he flew commercial around the world in 120 hours: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8D_UzMhjH8
Unicode labels U+000A as all of "LINE FEED (LF)", "new line (NL)" and "end of line (EOL)". I'm guessing different names were imported from slightly different character sets, although I understand the all-uppercase name to be the main/official one.
NL, or New Line, is a character in some character sets, like old mainframe computers. No need to be snarky just because he mistyped or uses a different name for something.
The writer presumably knows that umlauts and other non-ascii characters are functional in many languages. "rock döts" is poking fun at the trend in a certain tranche of anglophone rock/metal to use them in a purely aesthetic way in band names etc.
"if religious leaders worry/are motivated to speak by the fact ..."
Yes, IMO. But the topic is, or almost is, too complicated for the general public.
I just (right now) explained the document to a cathechist and her mind went to how video games harm the youth, which is tangential. I then explained "do not renounce to your ability to think" applied to feeds and fake news, which caused confusion; discussion is required for that. Again, this is a devote interested in education, I can _fear_ imagine how it would go with most people.
Just because you talked to one (or many) who chose the job freely, doesn't mean the ones in SE Asia are the same...
The captive ones do the scamming via text anyway, and they'd get beaten or worse if they don't do as wanted. "Just send some coded message", your incompassionate mind might say.. sadly not everyone is as wise as you, and it's hard to be so when they can cut your head and throw you into a river in a lawless part of the world.
I found the article hard to read. I turned on reader mode. I still found it hard to read. Each sentence is very short. My organic CPU spins trying to figure out how each sentence connects to the next. Each sentence feels more like a paragraph, or a tweet, instead of having a flow. I think that's my issue with it.
Hah, there's a dystopian short story to be written there, where a regime says "These people who never got born would've voted for us, so we're counting their votes. We thank the voting population for the landslide victory and continued trust in us to govern them!"..
Maybe we can ask the Supreme Court and the MAGA party what the plot of the story should be..
I'm also for education for AI awareness. A big point on teaching kids about AI should also be a lot about how unreliable they can be.
I had a discussion with a recruiter on Friday, and I said I guess the issue with AI vs human is, if you give a human developer who is new to your company tasks, the first few times you'll check their work carefully to make sure the quality is good. After a while you can trust they'll do a good job and be more relaxed. With AI, you can never be sure at any time. Of course a human can also misunderstand the task and hallucinate, but perhaps discussing the issue and the fix before they start coding can alleviate that. You can discuss with an AI as much as you want, but to me, not checking the output would be an insane move...
To return to the point, yeah, people will use AI anyway, so why not teach them about the risks. Also LLMs feel like Concorde: it'll get you to where you want to go very quickly, but at tremendous environmental cost (also it's very costly to the wallet, although the companies are now partially subsidizing your use with the hopes of getting you addicted)..
Only if you naively throw AI carelessly at it. It sounds like you havent mastered the basics like fine-tuning, semantic vector routing, agentic skills/tooling generation…dozens of other solutions that robustly solve for your claim.
> One of my favorite small features: Navigation directions don’t kill the music. They come through speakers in the driver’s seat headrest, while the song or podcast keeps playing everywhere else.
My previous car had a USB socket that supports MP3s on a flash drive (well also an Aux input), and I navigated using my phone and its speaker. So the MP3s play in parallelwith the navigation prompts (from different speakers - car and phone).
My new car has Android Auto, I can play music from the phone, but whenever Google Maps wants to say something the music is paused...
Luckily it also has the music player outside of Android Auto and the 2 things can co-exist (with audio ducking)..
