They’re trying to block adblockers again, it seems. I got the “adblockers are not allowed” popup again recently.

Fair enough! The disadvantage is that, as opposed to Dropbox and similar, I have go into a file at the root of the synced folder, rather than keeping that config near to where itcs relevant.

Thanks for the names!

That’s… a very good idea. I should do that anyway.

Forgejo for projects and syncthing for data is probably perfect, thank you!

I tried with both, but I didn’t figure out how if such an option exists. I did manage to do the opposite (keeping files uploaded but not having them locally), both with and without VFS (with VFS it’s in a context menu in nautilus, without it’s in the desktop app).

it does! I use it to sync my music, but I feel like it’s not the right tool for the job here.

I don’t want to “have the folders connected”, I want to have the ability to sync files easily, while excluding specific folders and files.

I have. It hasn’t worked very well for me, the docs weren’t great (though I’m looking at them now and they do seem better?) and it broke in strange ways.

So… databases? Especially in data centers? Still a nice boost in that case

Somebody added that 80th title and still decided against just making it a free text field

It’s bad. The original question is being used as a… standard conversation piece, here (though I’ve never heard that one IRL, I’m not surprised). Like “How are you”, “good, how about you”, “good” (which is in reality pretty much just a greeting), the person in the meme is saying “i’m sorry, I don’t have an excuse for my behavior” (“sorry I’m crazy”).

The expected response is reassurance on the second part (“no you’re not” to “I’m crazy”), but the received response is reassurance on the first (“it’s okay” to “sorry”). This implies that the other person does believe the first person is crazy, but the first person didn’t actually 100% mean the “I’m crazy” bit, so it’s an accidental insult that the first person can’t actually contest in any way and it hurts more because the other person must believe that for real. Therefore, unpleasant, but keeping it in. Hence the face.

Hope that made some sense!

If you haven’t already, try out KDE’s Krita. Incredible piece of software, much better for drawing imo

Ngl that link puts me slightly off. It reads exactly like what people booted for very good reasons say

The following paragraph shows how so-called cancel culture was used weaponising […]

And in the email, Mozilla talks about him violating their “inclusivity” policy… we also don’t know what was reported, only the reasons stated.

Not saying that it wasn’t unjust, just that we only have 1 perspective and it’s written in a way that raises some red flags.

Do advertisers maybe require a bit of JS to be run to validate a click? I can’t imagine they’re happy to lose money to completely invalid clicks…

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?

Apparently some people are working on it. Defo not usable rn tho

What does “not full functionality” mean here, no head movement or you can’t use the cameras? Cus as long as I can play the games I’e got through steamvr I’m happy

For syntax highlighting, it’ll soon be possible (might already be?) to add syntax highlighting languages yourself

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.
