There’s a whole bunch of pull requests and issues sitting there for a start.

Personally I’d also update the example in the readme and set an engine value in the package.json file.

Why not reformat and use a more open filesystem?

You’d get less issues too!

Looking back at history, it would lead to more propaganda and more support for going to war.

A population getting attacked only leads to that population wanting to an us vs them mentality and emotional knee-jerk reactions over rational responses.

Better to ask a rubber duck than an LLM.

It has better results, is cheaper, and makes has a positive compounding effect on your own abilities.

At least it was better than the developer survey that was only about AI. That one still makes me facepalm just thinking about it.

Because: “The dose makes the poison”.

In other words, any chemical—even water and oxygen—can be toxic if too much is ingested or absorbed into the body. The toxicity of a specific substance depends on a variety of factors, including how much of the substance a person is exposed to, how they are exposed, and for how long.

No mouse and like games like MaM/Civ?

Recommendation for slower paced, top down strategy game:

• GBA emulator and the game Advance Wars 2

Recommendation for hard and fast paced game (audio required):

• Crypt of the Necrodancer

Recommendation for story based game:

• Undertale (avoid spoilers, this game will mess with you, only goes for 4 hours per playthrough but you will replay it for the different endings)

I’m not seeing anything in the data collected that I wouldn’t want to be sent if the app crashed.

For anyone downvoting this who didn’t understand the reference:

Russia is saying that they’re the ones shooting down their own planes, because they don’t want to admit that Ukraine has the capability to shoot down their planes.

Your question:

what things did the LHC discover that have real practical applications right now other than validating some hypothesis

Is really multiple questions:

1. Is doing fundamental research with no application in mind useful?

2. Has the LHC led to practical applications usable today

The answer to question 1 is yes.

There’s different types of research programs made to target different goals. Some aim for short or medium term applications, and others are just pure fundamental research.

Just because pure research doesn’t have an application in mind, doesn’t mean it’s not useful. The application isn’t the goal, the expansion of our knowledge base is. Everyone who ever thought up of an application for something did so based on their own knowledge base. If the knowledge base never expands, then we run out of applications to think up. This is why pure research is useful.

And all of history supports this:

• The discovers of rays shooting off cathode-ray-tubes in the 1800s were just doing pure research and had no idea it would lead to TVs
• particle accelerator research lead to invention of cat scans
• chemists trying to research heavier elements leading to the discovery of nuclear fission, leading to nuclear power
• electrolysis research lead to the invention of lead (and rechargeable) batteries
• etc…

The answer to question 2 is also yes:

The obvious ones are:

• improved manufacturing processes
• improved supercooled superconductors
• improved large scale vacuum chambers
• Improved data processing
• Trained a new cohort of experienced scientists/engineers/workers/etc (who can now work on new projects outside of the LHC)

I have yet to be given an example of something a “general” intelligence would be able to do that an LLM can’t do.

Presenting…

Something a general intelligence can do that an LLM can’t do:

Play chess: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvTs_nbc8Eg

Why can’t it play it? Because LLM’s don’t have memory, so they can’t work with logic. They are the same as the little “next word predictor” in your phone’s keyboard. It just says what it thinks is the most probable next word based on previous words, it’s not actually thinking or understanding anything. So instead, we get moves that don’t make sense or are completely invalid.

My long bet: The EU will force Google Search + Ads, to separate from Youtube within a decade.

Did you purge and update your filters?

Note: I’m not talking about turning filters off then back on, I’m talking about updating the version of each filter itself.

I’m curious why people would downvote a request for port forwarding?

Also, you can buy Tic Tacs from any newsagent or gas station.

Yeah, the obvious way would be to draw the text on a canvas, but you wouldn’t get sharp text then.

I could nest a span with a negative translate or negative margin to overlap. It could be worth it to print each letter in a css grid (which would work since all the text is monospace) making it super easy to overlap text.

There may be a more hacky/elegant solution which would be to use weird unicode to overlap characters, but I’m not sure how feasible it would be.

I’m confused and didn’t understand this point.

Both of the screenshots used in the article show the street names.

Every street is shown on the zoomed in screenshot, and every major street is shown on the zoomed out screenshot.

Good news, X is now down.

Modern PHP shits all over the PHP v3, v4, v5 days of yore.

Anyone making new projects from scratch is living in a land of bliss while those working in projects/frameworks that started in the days of yore are having experiences across the whole spectrum of, “Wow, I sure am glad we migrated to modern php” to “please kill me, I’m in so much pain”.
