Super, merci!

Poast c’est pas un peu un site de nazi?

Yeah fair enough, I didn’t mean to contradict you, more add on to your comment

“Well and truly over two decades” is definitely true…

Exxon had a report in the 80s talking about a 1°C rise in “40 years” ie literally right now

Ahh, that makes sense. Powers of two are real convenient. Your math is a little wrong though: X != (X & 0xFF) + (X >> 8), but X = (X & 0xFF) + (X >> 8) << 8 The right half can be removed entirely if you’re doing modulo 16, since the first 4 bits will always be 0. So it simply becomes X & 15! Much cleaner for sure.

Would you happen to remember what the optimization was, mathematically?

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20036698/subdivide-a-modulo-function-16-bit-but-can-only-do-8-bits-at-a-time#20036828 seems to say that it’s “impossible afaik”, and I can’t seem to optimize it myself (though this kind of math isn’t my forte)

Somebody created an account at MyEpson with OP’s email address and the name “GET BITCOIN NOW link”, which sends a confirmation email to OP with that name. Basically it’s spam using Epson as a trojan horse to get past filters.

For the screenshot you might want to use a terminal that doesn’t have bloom, a CRT filter, and a background, I genuinely can’t see the TUI.

Lol I didn’t get the reference before

(There was a post about Switzerland considering legalizing cocaine cus they have so much and it’s so pure & common, apparently)

Uh. Buddy. They absolutely are known for building a shitload of trains. There’s the Gottard, which is the longest tunnel through a mountain, and I think also the steepest railtracks in the world?

You’ve never heard of swiss trains always being on time?

This is a really solid explanation of how studies finding human behavior in LLMs don’t mean much; humans project meaning.

Neural networks are named like that because they’re based on a model of neurons from the 50s, which was then adapted further to work better with computers (so it doesn’t resemble the model much anymore anyway). A more accurate term is Multi-Layer Perceptron.

We now know this model is… effectively completely wrong.

Additionally, the main part (or glue, really) of LLMs is not even an MLP, but a “self-attention” layer. You can’t say LLMs work like a brain, because they don’t. The rest is debatable but it’s important to remember that there are billions of dollars of value in selling the dream of conscious AI.

Nah. Programming is… really hard to automate, and machine learning more so. The actual programming for it is pretty straightforward, but to make anything useful you need to get training data, clean it, and design a structure, which is much too general for an LLM.

Can’t blame you on Dark Bramble that shit’s terrifying

I’m not aware of any word like that

“The ranges experienced by humans” is extremely variable. My friends from hotter countries can barely handle 10°C, but are fine at 40°C, and it’s entirely the opposite for me.

I assure you that for regular use, Celsius works great. I don’t really think either is better than the other in practice (outside of chemistry), but “it’s the range people experience” is kinda bull. A 10 degree F difference from 0 to 10 is very different from 60 to 70.

Also, water freezing at 0°C (and boiling at 100°C, to a lesser degree) is quite convenient in everyday life. Just check for a minus sign and you know if it can freeze.

If you think something being legal automatically makes it not-wrong, I don’t trust you on… well, much of anything, but especially privacy
