Faschaftsrat

Ich dachte erst der Rat hat was mit Faschismus zu tun, aber nach weiterer Überlegung meintest du wohl Fachschaftsrat?

Did he just chicken out from chickening out?

I just happened to use the OS search bar which always (?) uses the Android browser.

Ah right, I had that issue too.

To avoid it I use the Lawnchair 3rd party launcher with a 5x5 grid, and placed a Firefox “search the web” Widget on the top row. Admittedly it’s not perfect, I encountered a few bugs in Lawnchair before (though not recently), but it still annoyed me less than the default.

I recommend Firefox for Android, share works normally, and you can install extensions. I have one for ad blocking and one to keep YouTube running even when I minimize the browser or lock the screen.

Ist das beim TÜV auch gestaffelt, dass Neuwagen noch nicht so oft müssen?

Bei uns in der Schweiz ist es typischerweise so 5, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2 Jahre. Aber wie immer sind wir zu föderalistisch, als dass es einheitlich wäre

I was hoping, until seeing this post, that the reasoning text was actually related to how the answer is generated. Especially regarding features such as using external tools, generating and executing code and so on.

I get how LLMs work (roughly, didn’t take too many courses in ML at Uni, and GANs were still all the rage then), that’s why I specifically didn’t call it lies. But the part I’m always unsure about is how much external structure is imposed in the LLM-based chat bots through traditional programming.

Apparently I was too optimistic :-)

I don’t get along well with people who aren’t at least within “discussing distance” politically. I wonder how people even date when they don’t agree on some fundamentals.

So the “show thinking” button is essentially just for when you want to read even more untrue text?

Using 1 is fun. That means the circumference of a circle is equal to its diameter.

They do actually burn gas locally, I wasn’t trying to dispute that part. It has become a political discussion in Memphis. Apparently they wanted to start operations on turbines before the grid access was ready.

The petit pipi is very funny to me for some reason.

I also appreciate the translation of “???” for “???”

Ah I found some more info from the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung:

Lame wurde am 6. Juni auf dem Flughafen von Las Vegas im Bundesstaat Nevada von der US-Einwanderungsbehörde vorübergehend festgesetzt und flog noch gleichentags freiwillig nach Kanada weiter. Offenbar hatte Lame übersehen, dass seine elektronische Einreisegenehmigung (ESTA), die zwei Jahre lang gültig ist und mehrmalige Einreisen ermöglicht, abgelaufen war.

It says he didn’t realize that his ESTA authorization (which you can use for multiple visits, but is only valid for two years) had lost validity.

it should automatically shut down after applying the updates

Okay, that part it does for me though. That’s extra annoying for you then.

apply everything that is possible, then restart and apply the remainder

Yeah on one hand I get the concept, on the other macOS and Linux manage without, and I don’t really remember older Windows doing this either, so I wonder if there is a real reason why it’s needed, or they just engineered themselves into a bad corner…

The linked video is a bit unclear to me. The don’t explain the modes well. Mostly it seems to just show heat. According to the description it’s a Teledyne FLIR G620, which should be able to detect Methane and other VOCs. But it’s not clear to me how we are supposed to distinguish hot rising CO2 and H2O from any potentially leaking Methane, in those pictures.

This week I heard from a network group lead of a university hospital, that they have a similar issue. Some medical devices that come with control computers can’t be upgraded, because they were only certified for medical use with the specific software they came with.

They just isolate those devices as much as possible on the network, not much else to do, when there is no official support and recertification for upgrading. And of course nobody wants to spend half a million on a new imaging device when the old one is still fine except for the OS of the control computer.

Sounds like a shitty place to be, I pity those guys.

That said, if you were talking about normal client computers then it’s inexcusable.

That’s always so annoying, because Windows isn’t my default boot entry, so I need to babysit its “totally not a reboot” update.

overstaying the terms of his visa

He arrived in the US on 30 April

Hm weird. If he’s Italian, wouldn’t he have an ESTA authorization under the Visa Waiver Program for 90 days usually?

He’s an author and the founder of the online community LessWrong.

I first heard of him when someone on the old site recommended Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality to me.

That article is kind of shitty. I’d propose that reading the original with the help of machine translation is probably still better: https://www.srf.ch/news/international/trotz-sanktionen-schweizer-maschinen-in-russlands-waffenfabriken

Also just FYI this is 3 months old, that’s why the article refers to Trump stopping weapons deliveries, that was a current development at the beginning of march.
