Turun,

Humans when they see a vaguely humanoid shape in the dark: your upper picture

Humans when they are actively destroying the very basis of their existence, causing large, currently inhabited areas, to be uninhabitable in a few decades: this is fine meme, photoshopped to see the rain forest burning and cities flooding.

Turun,

Shout-out to the PDF reader evince, which shows a preview of the linked part when hovering the link!

Especially useful for hyperlinked images and tables.

Turun,

This is a fact. The story ends when Danaerys sails to Westeros.

Turun,

It’s @user

It’s surprisingly doable. If you have a free weekend you can learn all of them. Even one day may be enough if you are dedicated and a quick learner. Of course, repetition is a must if you don’t want to forget them again, but the initial investment is really not that big.

www.tofugu.com/japanese/learn-katakana/

This resource suggests mnemonics which are surprisingly effective. They teach hiragana first, but it’s not a hard requirement if you want to learn katakana exclusively.

Turun,

Is the u pronounced? I recently learned katakana and it seems like the u variant is used to just get the consonant, i.e. if you pronounce words by leaving out the u they often match more closely to the English word than if you do pronounce the u (or to (ト), because tu doesn’t exist, it’s tsu). The two examples you gave match that thesis.

Turun,

The goal is to host a website… Anyone can scrape it.

Turun,

If all you want to do is play games, then AMD is the way to go. Better price to performance ratio.

But if you want to play around with AI, Nvidia is the only game in town. AMD still does not properly support GPGPU on their consumer cards. It’s infuriating and embarrassing really.

Turun,

If you want to you can just create a new subvolume, mount it temporarily and move all your files from root to there. Then you need to figure out how to make the new subvolume your root directory upon boot and you are done.

Google Researchers’ Attack Prompts ChatGPT to Reveal Its Training Data (www.404media.co)

ChatGPT is full of sensitive private information and spits out verbatim text from CNN, Goodreads, WordPress blogs, fandom wikis, Terms of Service agreements, Stack Overflow source code, Wikipedia pages, news blogs, random internet comments, and much more....

Turun,

I’m curious how accurate the PII is. I can generate strings of text and numbers and say that it’s a person’s name and phone number. But that doesn’t mean it’s PII. LLMs like to hallucinate a lot.

Turun,

Economics is 50/50 too. It’s not in the OG set of prizes and the science is hit and miss as well.

But yeah, physics, chemistry, medicine are all prizes that highlight game changing discoveries.

Turun,

The issue is in your software that displays the capacity (most likely windows).

You bought 2 TB SSD. You got 2 TB SSD. This is equivalent to 1.8 TiB (think of it like yards and meter). Windows shows you the capacity in TiB, but writes TB next to it.

Say you buy a 2.18 yard stick. You get a 2.2 yard stick, which is equivalent to 2 meter. Windows will tell you it’s 2 yards long. Why? I don’t know.

Turun,

μ is not a stretch at all, it’s literally the first character of the word micro. (Mu, iota, kappa, rho, omega). Similar to how other scientific words are derived from their original language.

It doesn’t matter, most people will understand you if you write um instead of μm, because it isn’t ambiguous.

Turun,

For what it’s worth I have only ever heard the term used to describe the Linux thing. So for me that is the only meaning.

Turun, (edited )

No offense, but that sounds a lot like apple and Microsoft arguing against freedom of the user.

“Installing an app from outside the app store could introduce a security vulnerability”

“We must have edge installed at all times to provide a good user experience. Replacing such a central part of the operating system could weaken the security of the device”

Turun,

Learning from hearing: I’ll write down the word that makes this sound

Learning as a second language: I’ll write down the translation for the word I know in my native tongue.

Turun,

The 11 stands for the number of arms that have been bolted onto the dog in an attempt to turn it into an octopus.

Turun,

when an asteroid inevitably punches through said bus and/or diner.

Or, you know there is a crash? Lol

I’ve never heard it with the asteroid explanation. But thousands of people die every year in car crashes. Most in single occupant vehicles, but a bus can be involved too.

Turun,

We also exhibit wave-particle duality. It’s just that our wavelength is on the order of 10^-25 m or something.

Turun,

To be fair you can say that about the US (and related allies) as well.

Turun,

I think the argument is that if you write a 1 with a line at the bottom it is easy to confuse it with a sloppily written 7, whose bar moved down a bit.

Which invalidates the argument of the user above. (If not inverse it - a lot more numbers in life start with a 1 than with a 7)

Turun,

Me neither, but I also don’t read a lot of handwriting from other parts of the world. But I have heard that some places teach the 1 with a horizontal bar and the 7 without one.

Turun, (edited )

Every random number is actual pseudo random

No, there are true random sources in a computer. Any outside input can be used to generate randomness. Mostly user input, but temperature fluctuations can work as well, if the sensor precision is high enough.

Also the argument is only correct on a technical level for PRNGs. Choose a 65535 sided dice and make the instructions a thousand steps long and you’ll have a pretty hard time to deduce the instructions from the generated numbers. Not to mention how long the list of numbers needs to be for the attacker to start guessing.

Turun,

From the top of my head, it’s approximately 7 to 1 conversion.

So I totally agree: your prices are pretty ridiculous in the US! 300k DKK for 17kWp of solar?!?

Turun,

A better comparison may be the inequality before the civil war. Which was then improved by fighting a war about it.

So it may also get wayyy worse before it gets better again.

(Though I also agree with the assessment that it’s pretty overdramatized by the media)
