Great article. Just reminds me of how much societies resemble a pendulum; swinging from one extreme to the other. And of course you have the problem that some people want to freeze it mid-swing, or worse tear the damn thing down completely.
LOL.. you are correct. Funny thing though... the 'Always Free' text is linked to a "/start-free/" action\page. One could argue that they are hedging their bets.
I must admit, all my prompts start with this. Have to do some testing now.
I tried this a few months ago after seeing a Youtube video where a guy generated TTRPG miniatures using it. It was okay at the time, but nothing I'd depend on. Seems the author thinks the same.
I don't find that at all. At work, we've no access to the API, so we have to force feed a dozen (or more) documents, code and instruction prompts through the web interface upload interface. The only failures I've ever had in well over 300 sessions were due to connectivity issues, not interface failures.
Context window blowouts? All the time, but never document upload failures.
No, SHOULD is defined in the RFC, not by colloquial usage. Google is on the wrong, regardless of their "safety" intent.
After all, linguistics is full with examples of words that are spelled the same, but have different meaning in different cultures. I'm glad the RFC spelled it out it for everyone.
Oat fiber. I've been taking 30g of oat fiber everyday for the past 3 years. Slugging it down in 8oz of warm water and 10g of nooch. Not only are my cholesterol levels fantastic after starting that regime, but very regular as well.
As does their recently published: Atkinson Hyperlegible Next. https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Atkinson+Hyperlegible+Next
From personal experience I had half a dozen aunts and uncles (70+) mention the "Google AI thing" on their phones. Rather surprised me.
I've heard it was Sam Altman and OpenAI basically buying every wafer available from both Samsung and SKHynix at the start of October.
Neither company know of the other purchase until it was a done deal.
"The Support Matrix also shows Cellebrite’s capabilities against Pixel devices running GrapheneOS, with some differences between phones running that operating system and stock Android. Cellebrite does support, for example, Pixel 9 devices BFU. Meanwhile the screenshot indicates Cellebrite cannot unlock Pixel 9 devices running GrapheneOS BFU."
Not surprised at all that an open-source, third party Phone OS is tougher to crack than the Google official version.
Great tool, and incredibly easy to use. Started with it on Linux, and now use on 'doze too.
Probably the singular reason why I finally use regex as the first search option, rather than turning to it after bruting thru a search with standard wildcards.
Absolutely! I do this yearly. It's a great way to ensure that a SNAFU somewhere doesn't nuke years of photos, email and documents.
Certainly the people buying software know best what their requirements are.
I doubt it. The people who are going to use the software are the ones who know what the requirements are. The people buying it should be asking the users, but rarely do.
Very, very neat, and a testament to the 'that's neat' way of doing science. I also love that the device has an innate 'periodicity' of movement. Somewhat reminiscent of the Strandbeest concept (also by a Dutch gentleman Theo Jansen).
No, you're the one in denial. Just have a look at the decade old book "Salt Sugar Fat: How the Food Giants Hooked Us" to see the flaw in your assumptions.
It details many Concrete examples of exactly how the companies are manipulating everything about food for profit.
Kessler, further FDA head has written about this topic extensively as well.
I've never had any lack of focus or motivation to get anything done since I started Tz.
I did have some energy loss, especially at first, but I assume that was because my body was struggling to cope with a lack of carbs. However, after a couple of weeks that for the most part disappeared.
Absolutely understand. Never had joint issues, but after being on Tz for a couple of months, I had knee and hip pain. I'm convinced it was muscle loss, because after I boosted my protein intake and exercise, they started to go away. All but gone now (thankfully).
Intuitively, I suspect any acid is bad for your teeth. But I see that statement primarily from Dentists, and their track record in a number of areas is less than stellar. Prime example: Flossing and 6 month checkups. Neither of which have good scientific evidence, despite their widespread promotion.
IIRC, the Sumerians (through the Akkadians perhaps) left records stating they had to build walls around their cities. Which to me certainly implies the Sumerians had cities without walls for some time. Pretty big deal that, to have recorded it.
I wouldn't believe any missionaries statements of fact. After all, their history is as bad or worse than Columbus wrt the treatment of the native peoples in the Americas.
LOL... yea, I suffer the same problem. Case in point: I've been trialing Luculent for a week or so after seeing it here.
Iosevka is a great font, but it has SO MANY options, that I doubt one person's Iosevka is super comparable to anothers. =) I know I certainly customized the heck out of mine.
Nature relayed one from the British Dental Journal (2023) on the acid protection granted by BioMin F. (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41415-024-7876-8)
Here's another from 2022 that compares Colgate fluoride toothpaste against BioMin F(https://shorturl.at/M4hiQ).
From the article: "Instead, they are helping people to make their own, identical pirated versions of proven and tested pharmaceuticals by taking the precursor ingredients and performing the chemical reactions to make the medication themselves. "We don't invent anything, really," Laufer said. "We take things that are on the shelf and hijack them. We like to take something established, and be like 'This works, but you can't get it.' Well, here's a way to get it."
Wow.... I mean I can measure like anyone, but to make my own pharmaceuticals?.
What petty BS; it's a rounding error of a press release! If you want numerical precision, go read American Mathematical Society papers.
"It's potentially the first time anyone can download a GPT-4-class large language model (LLM) for free and run it on their own hardware. You'll still need some beefy hardware: Meta says it can run on a "single server node," which isn't desktop PC-grade equipment. But it's a provocative shot across the bow of "closed" AI model vendors such as OpenAI and Anthropic."
I love that Ars-Technica calls out BS on the title of the article: "Open source AI is the path forward," says Mark Zuckerberg, misusing the term.
The author Edwards states correctly "...undermining your competitors using a model subsidized by a social media war chest is also an efficient way to play spoiler in a market where you might not always win with the most cutting-edge tech."
Let's not forget Charles Lindbergh in that group either. He was wildly anti-semitic, and spoke glowingly of Hitler frequently, even into the 40s. Maybe it was due to that medal he received from Hermann Gohering.
Typical; someone with only half of a story pushing an agenda. You can look at the data yourself(*) No state pays more outright than California. Followed closely by NY, Mass, Ct, NJ. Look at per-capita income, and California is receives less than 44 other states. Lets see how does that compare some of those "red" states?MS(#8), Al(#7), La(#11), Ar(#15), Ky(#2), SC(#13), Tn(#16), Wv (#5), Oh(#21), Tx(#36), Mt(#19), NC(#20)?
Don't know about you, but the data sure tells another story doesn't it? I damn well don't live in CA (midwest), but don't believe anything on the 'net until you verify it yourself. Too many people pushing an agenda.
