Their family probably came to Taiwan after the Japanese invasion.

Japan was notoriously brutal to the indigenous population, but most of the people in Taiwan came there in the civil war.

In fact, stamping out the indigenous culture has been an ongoing part of the post civil war Taiwanese government, and it’s only recently that the Taiwanese language has been allowed to be taught in schools.

What are the odds on Clarence Thomas being found doing some truly heinous things in the Epstein files, refusing to step down, and publishing an opinion that the founders really wanted Trump to become God-KKKing of the US?

The main differentiator of fish over everything else is it prioritizes intuitive behavior over backwards compatibility.

Zsh is to bash as c++ is to c. Most bash scripts and habits will work in zsh, but zsh is just more convenient and has more options. Fish is intentionally different.

Do I wish fish had existed instead of bash so we had a nicer terminal experience? On the whole, yes. But I also couldn’t be bothered to learn another shell where most of the instructions online won’t be able to help you, and I ended up sticking with zsh.

It’s also the font on the pop-ups, and the AI logo.

There’s a very generic style of Facebook cartoon that these things absolutely nail.

Bragging rights and improved sleeping ability from the knowledge that the devs are being supported.

The serious answer is it’s often easier for people in a company to buy a license key than it is for them to arrange a donation to the devs. So this is an easy way to make small donations.

Well it is trained to copy musk.

I guess it might work if HR don’t know how an LLM works. There’s not many that can edit a word file so it includes whited-out footnotes.

You’re better off getting a friend to lie for you. They can say they added it while helping you with formatting and you know nothing about it.

Genuinely, this already happens in large companies for related reasons.

The CV is on file, and if HR reprocess it for any reason e.g. relocation or change of role, it’s automatic dismissal for dishonestly if they catch a deliberate lie.

No but they can fire you later even if you’re good at the job.

Then you’re stuck in an even worse position with a big gap in your CV and no reference.

Unfortunately, this is seen as dishonestly and is grounds for immediate dismissal in a lot of places.

In practice it’s very systematic for small networks. You perform a search over a range of values until you find what works. We know the optimisation gets harder the deeper a network is so you probably won’t go over 3 hidden layers on tabular data (although if you really care about performance on tabular data you would use something that wasn’t a neural network).

But yes, fundamentally, it’s arbitrary. For each dataset a different architecture might work better, and no one has a good strategy for picking it.

Probably because there’s no good reason.

At least one intermediate layer is needed to make it expressive enough to fit any data, but if you make it wide enough (increasing the blobs) you don’t need more layers.

At that point you then start tuning it /adjusting the number of layers and how wide they are until it works well on data it’s not seen before.

At the end, you’re just like “huh I guess two hidden layers with a width of 6 was enough.”

It’s interesting. There’s a lot of talk about how chatgpt makes people lazy, but honestly I think Google killed the “read the manual” ethos.

Back in the day when you couldn’t just search for everything, you needed enough understanding of the manual to find anything in the index.

So a key part of figuring anything out was reading at least the start of the manual.

Now, fuck it, you just type into Google and try to guess enough context to understand what’s going on.

Yeah, but it can be filled in with “house”.

Hexbear is already flooded with beanis posts.

Looking forward to seeing beanis everywhere in the next version of Facebook’s LLM.

Garmin sends all your health data to the cloud and the app won’t work without an Internet connection.

On the plus side, they’re not part of the Google/Apple/Samsung data ecosystems, and I don’t think actually they do anything with the data, beyond computing statistics for you.

Depends how much you’re prepared to trust them I guess.

You’ve got it backwards.

This kind of voting forces the existence of two party systems.

Suppose you have two parties one left wing that gets 60% of the vote and one right wing that gets 40% in every district. Right now the left wing always wins.

If the left wing party splits into two blocks of 30% each, the right wing always wins.

So if you want to win, you can never split from the large parties, even if you feel unrepresented.

Depends.

You can argue that it’s basically art/political speech. You’ve done it to draw attention to flaws in the approach and to highlight how ineffectual the current system is, and that if you actually wanted to do make fake IDs you’d take a much less high-profile approach. As such, there’s no actual criminal intent required.

Don’t know if a judge would buy it though.

Selfie doesn’t work, you need to turn your head left and right to follow instructions.

But yeah, there’s a bunch of avatars that will bypass it

Ok, but one of the most important use cases is non-local access.

If I’m at home I can just go to the door.
