And yet, if you do that to your girlfriend, people have issues. Double standard here, people! Double standard!
Make your MIT-licensed library big enough that the corpos use it, then switch it to AGPL just before you add a really important and tricky feature they’ve been waiting for.
My Windows Computer Just Doesn’t Feel Like Mine Anymore.
Aww.
If you love it, set it free!
Off the top of my head
Your nostalgia is a bad reason for starting anything really. Most hopefully you won’t push your nostalgia on your children and force them to play outdated games.
It’s a dark path. Next you might start making them watch outdated films, maybe even reading outdated books. Before you know it you’re teaching them pre WWII history and Newtonian mechanics.
Now ask plasma…
But in the end, yes, it is a MITM. If you need your data to be E2E encrypted, don’t use it.
Or do use E2E encryption. You can still have a layer of encryption within the SSL tunnel that cloudflare controls. Like you’d do for an E2EE filestore: the webserver (and cloudflare) see the website woosh by, and all that you do on it, but the files themselves are encrypted opaquely to both, and decrypted only by a browser at the other end.
Huh, TIL
Cl ever wording there, but somehow I’m salty about it.
Nah, it’s the surface area of the extent of the effect. (For greatest volume affected, suspend the device such that its effect can reach, unimpeded, a sphere with that surface area.) Dunno how the physics works; something-something Gauss’s law, I imagine.
Snakes?
I think people do love to dunk on it. It’s the fashion, and it’s normal human behaviour to take something popular - especially popular with people you don’t like (e.g. j this case tech companies) - and call it stupid. Makes you feel superior and better.
There are definitely documented cases of LLM stupidity: I enjoyed one linked from a comment, where Meta’s(?) LLM trained specifically off academic papers was happy to report on the largest nuclear reactor made of cheese.
But any ‘news’ dumping on AI is popular at the moment, and fake criticism not only makes it harder to see a true picture of how good/bad the technology is doing now, but also muddies the water for people believing criticism later - maybe even helping the shills.
I have read elsewhere that it was faked.
(Edit: meaning the original, with the golden gate bridge)
The other massive flaw it demonstrates in AI today is it’s popular to dunk on it so people make up lies like this meme and the internet laps them up.
Not saying AI search isn’t rubbish, but I understand this one is faked, and the tweeter who shared it issued an apology. And perhaps the glue one too.
You probably wouldn’t consider x86 opcodes to be basic computer literacy either ;-)
There’s an old joke about two mathematicians in a cafe. They’re arguing about whether ordinary people understand basic mathematics. The first mathematician says yes, of course they do! And the second disagrees.
The second mathematician goes to the toilet, and the first calls over their blonde waitress. He says to her, "in a minute my friend is going to come back from the toilet, and I’m going to ask you a question. I want you to reply, “one third x cubed.'”
“One ther desque,” she repeats.
“One third x cubed,” the mathematician tries again.
“One thir dek scubed.”
“That’ll do,” he says, and she heads off. The second mathematician returns from the toilet and the first lays him a challenge. “I’ll prove it. I’ll call over that blonde waitress and ask her a simple integration question, and see if she can answer.” The second mathematician agrees, and they call her over.
“My friend and I have a question,” the first mathematician asks the waitress. “Do you know what is the integral of x squared?”
“One thir dek scubed,” she answers and the second mathematician is impressed and concedes the point.
And as she walks away, the waitress calls over her shoulder,
“Plus a constant.”
I don’t like that Russia looks like they just took a Mercator projection and shrank to scale. Because of its shape and location, Russia is especially distorted by the Equatorial-centred Mercator.
Also what’s with the “excluding Russia” footnote?
Hatch or grow. Because once you’re asking those questions, is the first chick truly the first chicken?
“Is a juvenile defined by what it currently is or what it will/might become?” And, “is chicken-ness an innate quality of the animal, or in relation to the animal fulfilling/presenting (or being able to fulfil) some chicken-ness?”
Bah, that’s nothing. You should see how many rivers flow right through the middle of big cities, and how close the ocean gets to expensive houses and certain fishing communities.
Coincidence, you say? Did you know that there is not a single city, with a population over a million, where the sea level sits more than ten metres above the median ground level of the city.
The ocean is amazing, my friends.
