Don’t assume even your own country is trustworthy in this.

My country is one of the world leaders in mass spying software development and even gave themselves the right to basically do deep packet inspections on everything going through it a long time ago, so…

Hah ! That means I own the only unlicked launch copy of BotW in the world ! DM me your offers, starting at $1 million, serious people only, I know what I have /s

I’ve never had to use it for important stuff tbh. But alongside a regex tester and a sample of the stuff I intend to use it on, I’ve had good results with an incremental approach where I tell the LLM what I want to change with the expression until I’m satisfied

All my homies hate regexs. That’s actually the best use case I found for LLMs so far : I just tell it what I want it to match or not match, and it usually spits out a decent one

youtube was even worse, i had to go through 10 unrelated videos to find one slightly relevant one.

Last month I typed letter for letter the title of a video I saw on there in YouTube search and it tried so hard to push some other barely related videos, I couldn’t believe it. I ended up typing the url manually like some internet cave man

Tell me about it, all the juniors were doing it at my old job, and I was usually the one tasked with fixing their shit. And since we basically didn’t do any form of mentoring (including code reviews) it was such a pain in the ass to get them to change their ways

I think China is still one giant timezone, yes.

Edit: There’s a relevant map men episode about that (and the islands thing) but I’m at work right now

I may be wrong here but I think that just like sky diving vs BASE jumping, you can actually just do it from a plane, which sounds like it would be a lot less dangerous

As far as I know, right now the main problem with flying cars is that they are nowhere near as idiot-proof as a normal car, and don’t really solve any transportation problem since most countries’ air regulations agencies would require them to exclusively take off and land in airports… Where you can usually find tons of planes that can go much further (and are much more cost effective, as you pointed out)

Can unfortunately confirm

I don’t understand, why did you post a random picture of some pavement ?

Well, the bishop is called the “fou” which literally translates to mad/insane, but iirc it’s a recent name

I would pay money to see daddy Linus flip off some big shot intelligence official

Currently it’s a grey area I think

Yeah, just like Twitch, it seems that YouTube has a way of conveniently “forgetting” these directives every now and then

Walking sims/narrative games. I’m a sucker for gameplay, so games with non-complex gameplay bore the hell out of me

I swear I could hear the call center employee (probably not really an IT guy at this stage) sweating when I called them after a thunderstorm fried my router’s entry port and I read them the list of troubleshooting I already went through before calling them.

Or France

As a “gamer” and game developer, this is sound advice.
