Yo whatup

We do know we created them. The AI people are currently freaking out about does a single thing, predict text. You can think of LLMs like a hyper advanced auto correct. The main thing that’s exciting is these produce text that looks as if a human wrote it. That’s all. They don’t have any memory, or any persistence whatsoever. That’s why we have to feed it a bunch of the previous text (context) in a “conversation” in order for it to work as convincingly as it does. It cannot and does not remember what you say
Every time I hear somebody mention that theory I remember that most people believe Elon isn’t a massive moron
Chat GPT can output an article in a much shorter time than it’d take me to write one but people would probably like mine more
Interesting direction to go…
I’d recently joined their Discord before it all went down. Like it happened within a month or so :/
I kept using YouTube Vanced up till I started getting video ads which took about 2 years iirc. ReVanced was eaiser than I expected to setup, thought it’d be a hassle which is why I put it off for so long.
A BTD game, probably BTD6 but BTD5 would do
Still works. Just cause it’s not being developed anymore doesn’t mean it stopped working. Mind you I am using something based of Mihon nowadays, TachiyomiSY
Isn’t iFixit an Apple authorized repair center? Tf they breaking up with Samsung for when they’re just copying what apples been doing.
Semantic whitespace is awful because whitespace (something that you can’t actually see) has meaning in how the program runs. Braces {
}
for scopes gives you the ability to easily tell at a glance where a scope ends. Whitespace doesn’t allow for that. Especially, especially when you can accidentally exit a scope (two new lines in a row with Python) and it’s not actually an error (Pythons global scope). Yeah formatters and linters make this less of an issue but it sucks… Languages with legible symbols for scoping are significantly easier to reason about, see end
symbols in Lua.
Hey! That’s exactly what Apple did when they came out with their third party repair programs! It’s like the only difference between all these companies is how shit they are, not that they are shit.
It erases the type of what your pointing at. All you have is a memory location, in contrast to int*
which is a memory location of an int
Sounds like the same shit those rare metal guys are always yapping about but with extra scams…
Smart pointers model ownership. Instead of (maybe) a comment telling you if you have to free/delete a returned pointer this information is encoded into the type itself. But that’s not all, this special type even handles the whole deleting part once it goes away.
Since they model ownership you should only use them when ownership should be expressed. Namely something that returns a pointer to a newly allocated thing should be a std::unique_ptr
because the Callie has ownership of that memory. If they want to share it (multiple ownership of the object) there’s a cheap conversion to std::shared_ptr
.
How about a function that takes in an object cause it wants to look at it? Well that doesn’t have anything to do with ownership so make it a raw pointer, or better yet a reference to avoid nullability.
What about when you’ve got a member function that wants to return a pointer to some memory the object owns? You guessed it baby raw pointer (or again reference if it’ll never be null).
There’s most certainly residuals, I’ve accidentally deleted then installed Windows on top of a bunch of my game saves. I found some random file recovery application and let it run for awhile. Guess what? Nearly everything was readable despite the fact it got wiped and then had a whole windows install.
NAND also experiences minor permanent damage on writes. Actually clearing the NAND involves a write as the charge has to be forced out (a write of 0s)
JetBrains might not be my friend but they don’t hold anywhere near the dev tool monopoly Adobe does for artists. Know what happens if JetBrains starts to blow massive ass? I finally sit down and figure out how to get my terminal editor working with my LSP. Yeah I lose some productivity but not as much as I’d lose by using Visual Studio or fuckn Eclipse.
So as a recent child depression/mental health issues are so much more common because the world we were born into is very obviously getting worse. As a little Elementary schooler we actually had like snow. Like snow days each year were expected. I remember playing outside in the snow, coming inside to some nice hot chocolate and grilled cheese. Do I even need to tell you how it’s changed? The snow we do get is more extreme (power goes out) and for shorter periods of time. This year I believe we got about a week of snow you could reasonably play in, however you wouldn’t want to do that cause everyones power was out or it was a fuckn blizzard.
We’ve got nowhere to go hangout. Malls are closing (not that you could walk to em) parks are okay but you STILL cannot walk to my neighborhoods closest park cause A: there literally isn’t sidewalks the whole way and B: you’d have to cross two busy roads. Basically in short the world we were born into wasn’t designed with us in mind, instead it was designed for the car. Course that brings up the fact that we aren’t getting drivers licenses as often as earlier generations. We can get deep into it but frankly I don’t care this comment is already too long. Instead I’ll just tell you my personal experience and choice to not get a license. It doesn’t provide me any meaningful benefits. I’d lived life up till 16 needing to be chauffeured around by my parents or a friend’s parents to go anywhere which like all kids was something I hated as I knew I was a burden. So, as you’d expect the internet became our meeting place. It avoided the burden of being chauffeured around. Once I was finally able to drive, well, where would I even go? A friend’s house perhaps but well, we can just join a voice call and do it like that.
Just to remind ya’ll we had this moral panic over TV, Music even Books. Is “social media” bad? Yeah, it’s bad for everyone. Should kids be on social media? Probably not. Using a phone doesn’t melt your brain it’s what you do on it. I think it should be obvious playing for example Minecraft on your phone is a much different form of interaction than watching TikTok is. We need to ignore these people lumping all forms of phone use together as that’s objectively stupid.
Counterintuitive but more instructions are usually better. It enables you (but let’s be honest the compiler) to be much more specific which usually have positive performance implications for minimal if any binary size. Take for example SIMD which is hyper specific math operations on large chunks of data. These instructions are extremely specific but when properly utilized have huge performance improvements.
