Gpt4 uses dall-e under the hood, which is not that great with text.

That sounds a bit too much. Generating an sdxl image and then scaling it up is the common procedure, but that should not take 2 minutes on a 40xx card. For reference I can generate 3 batches of 5 images (without the upscaling step) in less than 2 minutes on my 4070ti. And that's without using faster sdxl models like lightning or turbo or whatever.

I've seen password managers fail to detect password fields because the frontend devs thought whatever stupid piece of React crap they vomited from their keyboards was better than using standard html fields for their intended purpose. It's not very common, but it happens. Credit card fields are also a big mess for the same reason. Half the time bitwarden's best guess at auto filling those results in some absolute soup that makes no sense.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to send my warmest, most sincerest fuck yous to all the UX designers who think it's a good idea to fuck with navigation. Don't prevent me from opening shit in a new tab. Don't just scroll the page up to the previous h1 when I try to go back. Who the hell do you think you are?

Absolutely not lmao. They made an open world game that's set in the criminal underground of a busy city, but the police was literally unable to drive until a patch several weeks after launch. Which A LOT of people didn't get to experience because for weeks the game wasn't stable enough to playable for them anyway.

It's beyond the system. There's nothing there.

My dad did that. The man has a slight obsession with collecting information about our entire extended family, as far back as he can go in time. He's been known to get in touch with small municipalities to ask for their records about someone 8 generations back. He's collated quite a bit of data over the years.

And then one day he went and loaded all of that into a shitty mobile family tree app. Phone numbers, current addresses, email addresses, photos, a shit ton of personal information of a shit ton of people, uploaded to some random developer's unknown database without their consent. He didn't even pause to think about it for one second. I told him what he did, he wasn't even bothered.

There are tons of people like my dad who don't have a single cell in their entire bodies that gives a flying fuck about data privacy, unfortunately, and they give out everyone's data along with their own.

He's in Hydrogen Sonata. The mcguffin guy who everyone is trying to find and talk to because he's the only person who's old enough to remember some very important thing about the early days of the Culture.

One of Iain M. Banks' Culture novels has an exceptionally old character who is so exceptionally old that he's had to turn most of his body into memory storage (sounds weird if you think in terms of computers) to keep remembering things. He stores his sexy memories in his balls.

Podman has a built-in automatic update feature that monitors the source repo. Could be useful for you.

Javascript is a beautiful language where '3' - 1 = 2 but '3' + 1 = '31'.

We do jira + bitbucket + confluence + teams.

You joke but people do that. I've seen people repurpose their old android phones to host small services on their home networks. I won't comment on how reasonable it is because battery, but it's a thing.

I got fired when the company decided to downsize.

"How is that dumb?" you ask? That happened less than two weeks after I was hired. The boss man's speech indicated that that was the result of a long deliberation by corporate. So if you knew there could be layoffs any moment, why the fuck were you hiring?

I use Linux myself, but my work laptop they gave me is windows. I can honestly say that I believe in near future the average Linux experience is going to be smoother than windows. Because I cannot believe how insanely annoying windows 11 is. It's really not good. And modern Linux has more than good enough software and hardware compatibility.

But of course it's gonna take a long while before Linux overtakes windows because social inertia. And that's not gonna change easily because there is no humongous international corporation that spends billions every year to get their Linux based OS pre-installed on almost every new computer.

Compound words are very different than agglutinative conjugation though. In such languages, you don't just mash words together, you also modify them to encode all sorts of extra information into one word. You can form full, grammatically correct sentences that way. Can't do that with compound words because you can't compound them into a complete sentence.

A famous, powe example is the word "çekoslovakyalılaştırabildiklerimizdensiniz" from Turkish, which is like Finnish in that regard. It's a complete sentence that means "you are one of those who we have managed to make a czechoslovakian". The object, subject, verb, tense, and more are all in there. Obviously that's quite a bit more complex than word together-mashing.

That small inert lump of metal can have jagged edges that can cause injury later on. It also definitely is loaded with dirty crap that will cause infections. Overall it's rarely "fine" to leave random, unsterilized foreign objects inside the body.

There's the Elven Rope that's light as a feather and strong as steel. No reason there could not have been the Elven Condom that's thin and impermeable.

Distributing tasks dynamically between identical individual processors is already a difficult thing. Getting another processor of a wildly different architecture and purpose in there will probably not work well at all.

They're probably talking about Samsung TVs, not their android phones/tablets. Installing jellyfin on those things can be a chore. My experience with LG was similar. The official build was out of date and riddled with issues that didn't exist on other versions. It refused to play videos that worked well enough on other devices, transcode or no.

I like that the couple's arguments becomes a proxy war between two instances of chatgpt.
