After whatever quota of free GPT-5 messages is exhausted, `mini` should answer most replies, unless they're policy sensitive, which get full-fat `GPT-5 large` with the Efficient personality applied, regardless of user settings, and not indicated. I'm fairly confident that this routing choice, the text of Efficient [1], and the training of the June 2024 base model to the model spec [2] is the source of all the sophistic behavior you observe.

Boeing has an emergency response program called “Conference Hotel” (USAF) or called “Conference X-Ray” (USN/USMC) to provide units with engineering and test pilot expertise during airborne emergencies. This 24 hour a day service is available by calling (866)543-5### toll free or commercial (314) 232-9###. Callers may also contact the regional DSN operator at DSN 693-1### and ask to be connected to the Boeing STL operator at (314) 232-9###. It can also be used overseas via long distance phone lines or MARS radio patches. When the Boeing operator answers, callers must identify themselves and request Conference Hotel or Conference X-Ray assistance. The operator will ask for specific information to identify the appropriate Boeing personal to respond. Conference Hotel or Conference X-Ray is available to assist in airborne emergencies only. Do not utilize this capability as a part of pre-mishap drills.

There exists a player, as of today, who can capture across borders with no apparent in-between cross-color moves or delay.

That is what happened. It performs the maneuvers at a primary target site with no catcher, or terrain, or ground-based feedback; the Gulf; switching to an alternate site; the launch tower; if and only if all factors allow for a real catch.

The Greaseweazle V4, using the FluxEngine GUI, allowed me to capture 1,900 Amiga 880K disks in a row. Each disk took 50 seconds under ideal conditions. I absolutely recommend both for homogeneous collections of disks.

Most of the effort was in entering the text of the labels manually or restarting and switching between capture formats when a Mac or IBM disk cropped up. FluxEngine uses the expected format to decide whether the track most recently read contains errors; and if so, re-read the track 3-5 times, quintupling overall read-times.

All that's needed now is a floppy handling robot, a macro for recording the physical disk and label descriptions, and maybe a container format for all the capture products; thumbnails, cover art, metadata, flux images; that emulators and disk utilities can read, and that the community can re-distribute easily.

GPT3.5 easily spat out a working answer in response to "Write an HTTP and JavaScript page, as laconically as possible, that takes a list of newline separated strings from a textbox, and divides them randomly into `n` groups, where `n` is set with a text box."

Using ChatGPT to code effectively requires internalizing the small sliding context window and correct specification of the problem-space. You can get real work done if you thoughtfully split your project into parts, and you can save time by jumping back to a contextual fork where your program was fully specified.

Yeah! I run an unpatched IIS FTP server on Windows 10 from 2016. When FileZilla stopped connecting to it for reasons I can't even imagine, I enabled SSL using some slightly modified arcane commands I found on a forum post from 2011 to generate a self-signed certificate, convert it between two different formats, and finally use it to accept connections from only some of the still available FTP clients for Windows, which excluded Windows Explorer, but only some of the time.

Why, should I not be using IIS?

Yes, it’s disappointing, but I chose to publish this anyway to counter publication bias, and to maybe motivate someone else to come up with a different method to analyze what’s on these dummy MiniDiscs!

Fantastic.

"... taken advantage of by an entity capable of causing Russian computers to convince U.S. computers to misbehave, or to convincingly mis-attribute that activity in at least the preliminary stages of an investigation."

In my experience; UserBenchmark will only show exactly one review per part, usually written early in the lifecycle, and never updated. Sometimes, this is written by random users (older parts), sometimes by staff. All reviews are basically trash, especially staff reviews.

Also, data fields like 64-Core Perf were made less prominent on Part Lists and Benchmark Result pages around the time Zen+ and Zen 2 All-Core outperformed comparable Intel parts. 1-Core Perf and 8-Core Perf were prioritized on highly visible pages, putting Intel on top of the default filtered list of CPUs.

However, the dataset produced by the millions of benchmarks remains apparently unmolested, and all the data is still visible going back a decade or more, if not slightly obscured by checkboxes and layout changes. (https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/1)
