Someone had to carry out a study for that? I thought that’s common with ADHD.

Stress just turns on a switch in the brain which would otherwise be off no matter how much a situation warranted it.

Relieved to know I was not the only one who misread “fit”.

I heard this joke for the first time a few weeks back on an episode of The Penguin. :D

Not just song lyrics, but any piece of media

Unfortunately, this practice is becoming common on Lemmy.

Some might see my rant as gatekeeping, but it genuinely hinders meaningful discussion on the topic at hand.

It is a pet peeve of mine that led me to unsubscribe from many, otherwise good, subreddits and eventually leave that platform altogether (thanks to a push from its CEO).

8AM!

I do not agree with @FiniteBanjo@lemmy.today’s take. LLMs as these are used today, at the very least, reduces the number of steps required to consume any previously documented information. So these are solving at least one problem, especially with today’s Internet where one has to navigate a cruft of irrelevant paragraphs and annoying pop ups to reach the actual nugget of information.

Having said that, since you have shared an anecdote, I would like to share a counter(?) anecdote.

Ever since our workplace allowed the use of LLM-based chatbots, I have never seen those actually help debug any undocumented error or non-traditional environments/configurations. It has always hallucinated incorrectly while I used it to debug such errors.

In fact, I am now so sceptical about the responses, that I just avoid these chatbots entirely, and debug errors using the “old school” way involving traditional search engines.

Similarly, while using it to learn new programming languages or technologies, I always got incorrect responses to indirect questions. I learn that it has incorrectly hallucinated only after verifying the response through implementation. This makes the entire purpose futile.

I do try out the latest launches and improvements as I know the responses will eventually become better. Most recently, I tried out GPT-4o when it got announced. But I still don’t find them useful for the mentioned purposes.

some governments […] have been trying linux as a way to cut expenses

I have been hearing such news for close to two decades but not without news where many such organisations switch back to using proprietary software due to a mixture of reasons ranging from usability to politics.

Though I agree with your overall point, I can’t see why rounded corners (or the lack of it) might be a noticeable issue.

There are a lot of knee jerk reactions in the comments. I hope few of those commenters have read the article or, at the least, your comment.

Ah! That really does make things easy for migrating emails. Unfortunately I don’t have my own domain yet.

Given it is a CPU is limiting the parsing of the file, I wonder how a GPU-based editor like Zed would handle it.

Been wanting to test out the editor ever since it was partially open sourced but I am too lazy to get around doing it

How are you approaching de-googling? I am unable to think of a graceful solution to migrate my emails and photos while preserving their metadata.

Seems like Apple’s convoluted guidelines around external payment systems is working out for them.

E: added link to said guidelines.

It is working now. :-)

Yikes. I am yet to play the game but I knew Joel dies in the second one, as it almost felt like a setup for his death was built-in.

However, I wasn’t aware of Sony going to such lengths to misdirect the game’s players.

Thanks a lot for sharing the context.

P.S. you might want to fix the formatting for the spoilers as it is currently not hidden.

I am unaware of this one. Can you share what is this about, or share the relevant search keywords?

Interesting. I did use group by and sort by, but I guess I didn’t use the specific combination where it didn’t work as you mentioned.

Also, I did not know Cortana was available for Windows 7. I am sure it wasn’t there when I was using it. Perhaps it got introduced after I moved away from the OS?

everyone praises Windows 7, despite it having features that were non-functional for its entire lifespan, which people either didn’t notice, or didn’t care that those things didn’t work.

Can you share a few examples of said features?

Despite really wanting to use it, I skipped Vista when moving from XP to 7. I didn’t get to use 7 much as I switched to Linux shortly after.

True. Hopefully, the community helps maintain/extend the longevity of the phone.

Thanks for the list. While there are some that I read about previously, a few of the other patterns are something that I only experienced.

It is nice to know that these have been identified and labelled by others in the industry. :D
