That's awesome. Back in the day this was the strong point of eCOS which was a bare metal "platform" for running essentially one application on x86 hardware. The x86 ecosystem has gotten so complicated that being able to do this can get you better performance for an "embedded" app than running on top of Linux or another embedded OS. That translates into your appliance type device using lower cost chips which is a win. When I was playing around with eCos a lot of the digital signage market was using it.
Yeah, but humans can be made to understand when and how they're wrong and narrow their focus to fixing the mistake.
LLMs apologize and then proudly present the exact same output as before, repeatedly, forever spinning their wheels at the first major obstacle to their reasoning.
What happens if you need to catch up? You keep calling in a loop with a new lastEventId?
What is the intention there though. Is this for social media type feeds, or is this meant for synchronising data (at the extreme for DB replication for example!).
What if anything is expected of the producer in terms of how long to store events?
You can't! On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog[1] was published over 30 years ago! You've never been able to assume there was a real person on the other end of the conversation, with no agenda, engaging in good faith, with their own earnestly-held thoughts. On what basis would you have this expectation?
> If I construct my queries the right way (e.g., not concatenating strings together like it's the year 1990)...
(in the anti-WAF camp but playing a pedant here)
In your Django app, you indeed follow the best practices and don't concatenate strings together and so think that this security theater doesn't apply. Yet, this is precisely how Django ORM works under the hood, and SQL injections are periodically found there.
The real solution here is to subscribe to the django-announce list and update Django, or backport the fix manually.
>If you compare to a benchmark like the 1940s, tax% of GDP has more than doubled, and GDP has increased ~4.5x. This means someone today pays about 10X the taxes (controlling for for inflation!). State and local taxes have grown even faster than federal taxes.
That's cherrypicking. Income tax as % of GDP basically has stayed the same at around 8% since after ww2. Most people wouldn't think of the entire time period past ww2 as "over the decades".
I’ve just revamped the landing page of my project, Komentiq.com, by moving it to Next.js. This change brings faster load times, improved SEO, and a cleaner UI. I’ve also launched a blog to share updates and insights as we grow.
Komentiq is a platform designed to help businesses grow through smarter content marketing and insights. You can try it out for free — no credit card required.
There are new features coming soon, and I’d love feedback from this community. Let me know what you think!
What you are talking about is also the difference between "spectator sports" and playing sports. (Or, for more poignancy, spectator vs participatory sex.)
Advanced programmers don't use AI assistants because it doesn't help them write complex new code. This is mostly good for completing only well-known and more or less simple tasks. And I hope that such people understand the danger posed by "artificial intelligence" in many cases and in many forms.
Or we could use the actual characters for this purpose - the FS (file separator), GS (group separator), RS (record separator), and US (unit separator).
ASCII (and through it, Unicode) has these values specifically for this purpose.
It took some time, but once I applied it to work I was able to view my coworkers from a much more loving lens. Even when we don't get along, I always try to imagine that they might be going through something or have gone through something that's eliciting certain behaviors. It's a little creepy, but I do try to consider that they have a family, or are alone, or had a certain life, stuff like that. Might not even be entirely true, but this is how I chose to view things to keep the lantern burning at a modest brightness (not too bright, not too dim).
That’s the problem though. You can increase the clout of your claim online with fake exposition. People do it all the time. Reddit is full of fake human created stories and comments. I did it myself when I was in my twenties for fun.
If interacting with bogus story telling is a problem, why does nobody care until it’s generated by a machine?
I think it turns out that people don’t care that much that stories are fake because either real or not, it gave them the stimulus to express themselves in response.
It could actually be a moral favor you’re doing people on social media to generate more anchor points for which they can reply to.
It also seems to me that a lot of “prostatis” cases have nothing one to do with bacterial infection but rather pelvic floor issues or is referred pain from spinal issues.
I was just telling my son that 90% of the time I visited my granddad one of his friends would be there. I have only met up with one of my friends this year!
That is a spectacular change. I put it down to the amount of time he had to pursue his hobbies and interests (most of these friends were a part of that) vs me who is at work all the time.
> How does anyone have the confidence to ship a legal brief that an AI produced without checking it thoroughly?
It has likely never occurred to them that such checks are necessary. Why would it, if they've never performed such checks, nor happen to have been warned by AI critics?
>For example, yesterday I got a list of some study resources for abstract algebra. Claude referred me to a series by Benedict Gross (Which is excellent btw). It gave me a line to harvard’s website but it was a 404 and it was only with further searching that I found the real thing. It also suggested a youtube playlist by Socratica (again this exists but the url was wrong) and one by Michael Penn (same deal).
FWIW, I've found Penn's content to be quite long-winded and poorly edited. The key idea being presented often makes up hardly any of the video's runtime, so I'm just sitting there watching the guy actually write out the steps solving an equation (and making trivial errors, and not always correcting them).
It is a small kernel, from only a bootloader to running elf files.
It has like 10 syscalls if I remember correctly.
It is very fun, and really makes you understand the ton of legacy support still in modern x86_64 CPUs and what the os underneath is doing with privilege levels and task switching.
I even implemented a small rom for it that has an interactive ocarina from Ocarina of Time.
