The paper explains absolutely everything as if it was a tutorial "how to made your own modern agentic LLM". They even tell how they made their dataset. https://aleph-alpha.com/downloads/tech-report.pdf ; It's the first time I see this level of openness.

> Data-only attacks, those that do not affect a program’s control flow, have long been considered too sophisticated and niche to pose a practical threat.

Leveraging user data to get malicious behavior is the basis of interpreter eval injection (php, js, perl, shell calls, SQL ...). These attacks are like 50 years old. What do I miss?

What's really weird to me is that "I don't know" is not a valid answer in this experiment while we can all agree that's the main issue with LLM right now is that they will happily "roleplay" an answer when they have nothing in their dataset corresponding to your query.

Why not a Yocto project for the software ? Embedded linux = Yocto or buildroot , not yet another debian fork. Same with the UI ; why creating a new stock when an ImGUI process with a DRM back-end is enough for a launcher

No Thats not the same persons.Thats as simple as that. Those who used to be hyperfocused in the zone/flow so to get integrated designed consistent opiniated KISS Small-Is-Beautifull antipattern-free reusable code featuring the best abstraction layering with just the right amount of external dependencies and cognitive load ... these people are suffering a lot seeing the skills they cherished their whole life being devalued in less than a year. This opinion is a project manager's one. He's probably right. Both sides are right.

Still think Gideros SDK had more potential

You should consider change the name, it looks like a lot like https://haxe.org/

À simple way to debunk this fake French pretending non-profit complainer is to check it's present in the Répertoire national des associations (RNA)

The keyword you missed is 'idle'. An app should use as much Ram as needed to cache computation and network as it runs. But it shouldn't do when in the background. The Ram used here is not for accelerating the user experience. It's for the internal functioning of the managed language (Javascript) and virtual machine (Dom and browser API) because it has been packaged as a full Chrome clone running a single web app.

I share with the author this youth where a child learns coding before everything else. I really loved coding and made it my carrier. Yet I don't think I would have been on the side of recognized genius if born earlier. I don't think any of them spent most of their time smashing keys. They were rather conceptualizing and planning stuff, and had human skills I could only dream of.

That being said, we untalented programmers are experiencing what most jobs suffered in the last 2 centuries: massive automation of their everyday activities. I especially identify with these traditional farmers who took their life as their way of life was wiped out by artificial fertilizers, mechanic, chemicals and hyperscaling.

What about generating an answer, scoring its confidence in parallel. Then running a second llm to re phrase the answer accordingly: 'I vaguely remember Bobs birday is 1st March but I may be wrong, I should search the web"

Plucker was amazing. I used it to transform online docs into palm ebookd

You're supposed to use venv for everything but the python scripts distributed with your os

This is brilliant. Checkout my [Anatomically Correct Fish Tank](https://drawafish.com/fishtank-view.html?id=gYCWJ24lhxSvR4lG...)

Neonicotinoids kill all insects. They are extremely good at this. Noone contests this. CCD ("Colony Collapse Disorder") started as neonicotinoids usage raised, and so did the "windshield phenomemom" that all rural residents above 50 can tell you about.

If there were no parasite, no pathogen, and no predator, then bees would not be as much affected by pesticides for sure. But parasites and pathogens existed before, while habitat loss and monoculture farming don't explain what happens in relatively preserved areas.

All pesticides have an impact on insect populations obviously. I agree one should not focus on only one class of them, and work on an actual reduction of their usage and compensate farmers for profitability loss due to changes in pest management strategies.

You don't need to comment this. I know It won't be done and we're all screwed.

This article seems like fantasy fiction: 'We thought antibiotics were to blame, but actually, it's NO2.' (next 5G?) while it's widely recognized for the last ten years that the primary culprit is neonicotinoids: very potent and pervasive chemicals that accumulate in the biotope, killing all insects indiscriminately, contrary to the misleading claims made by the agro-industry.

I like how the author is surprised by the technological aberration that form Linux powered home appliances. A node server to power and publish over wifi a web site, an API, a web socket, while the site is being displayed by a outdated webview engine within an heavily constrained terminal which cant be reused for anything else. That's... the norm.

All this is very common. And yet displaying a couple of digits and a bar graph could be done with a pair of microcontrollers communicating onto some wired bus.

With the power supplies of this era, this pair of devices probably pumps 16w idle. Running 24/24 7/7, they probably consume as much as a small fridge as a whole. The LCA of the solution must be consterning as well, especially compared with few one dollard microcontrollers.

The worst of all is that this whole mess turned into bricks probably 3 years after it was installed, maybe less.

Beyond all the hystery around this topic, I feel like blocking porn site to minors is a reasonable requirement and it can be done with no privacy concern neither on the site side nor on the government side. It's a straightforward usage of basic crypto tools.

Says: - the porn site creates a challenge and send it to the browser. - the browser goes to the governmental service where one uses tax ID or the like to prove age. The service returns a challenge answer encoded with the government private key - the browser goes back to the porn site with the answer. The porn site uses the public key to decode the governmental response and validate it does correspond to the challenge.

As I see it, theres no PII that the site can get, no history leak on the government side, no excessive centralisation, nothing frighting really.

Do I miss something?

I'd like to highlight how some sort of aphantasia might feature psychological aspects.

Within this little experiment, I have high difficulties to visually an elephant head. But I easily see Tree Trunk character from Adventure Times. I wonder if an elephant head is a fatherly intimidating symbol I'm uneasy with. Or if I suffer Prosopagnosia rather than Aphantasia.

So an Sqlite based pouchdb

I don't know if it's tolerated. But if every student creates its own codesandbox account, they could clone a so-called devbox of yours containing your python challenge. Devboxes have a terminal so you may even make moderately interactive programs with them

Codesandbox supports python

I would rather worry about the copper peak in like 10 years. High tech degrowth looks unavoidable but I just can't think about it. It's like trying to think about my own death.
