It was viewed as illegitimate inside the US too. And yeah, I remember, even as a 17yr old at the time, seeing the event happen live and lamenting to my mother that we were going to have another Bush term over it. Historically for America that’s always been the case.
Nobody thought that at all. Most presidents sitting during outbreaks of war retain their positions. You’d have to have been in a complete echo chamber to believe this stance. The moment 9/11 happened, it solidified Bush’s Second term in stone.
I assume you mean Jr. Because Sr wasn’t the moron that Jr was.
Even LLMs in the context of coding, I am no programmer - I have memory issues, and it means I can’t keep the web of information in my head long enough to debug the stuff I attempt to write.
With AI assistants, I’ve been able to create multiple microcontroller projects that I wouldn’t have even started otherwise. They are amazing assistive technologies. Many times, they’re even better than language documentation themselves because they can give an example of something that almost works. So yes, even LLMs deserve the amount of hype they’ve been given. I’ve made a whole game-server management back-end for ARK servers with the help of an LLM (qwen-coder 14b).
I couldn’t have done it otherwise; or I would have had to pay someone $60k; which I don’t have, and which means the software never would have existed.
I’ve even moved onto modifying some open source Android apps for a specialized camera application. Compared to a normal programmer, sure - maybe it’s not as good. But having it next to me as an inexperienced nobody allows me to write programs I wouldn’t have otherwise been able to, or that would have been too daunting of a task.
They don’t. The models are trained on sanitized data, and don’t permanently “learn”. They have a large context window to pull from (reaching 200k ‘tokens’ in some instances) but lots of people misunderstand how this stuff works on a fundamental level.
Go look at the models available on huggingface.
There’s applications in Visual Question Answering, Video to Text, Depth Estimation, 3D recreation from a photo, Object detection, visual classification, Translation from language to language, Text to realistic speech, Robotics Reinforcement learning, Weather Forecasting, and those are just surface-level models.
It absolutely justifies current levels of hype because the research done now will absolutely put millions out of jobs; and will be much cheaper than paying people to do it.
The people saying it’s hype are the same people who said the internet was a fad. Did we have a bubble of bullshit? Absolutely. But there is valid reason for the hype, and we will filter out the useless stuff eventually. It’s already changed entire industries practically overnight.
ARK: Survival Ascended players: “First time?”
Hell, I just started with their dev kit, and it’s 760gb – I had to dedicate an entire NVME drive to it.
I’m not surprised. Internationalized symbols can be used to make an illegitimate email address look like it’s from an official one.
There’s nothing to scale. DNS servers are just an address book. There’s only 200 million entries active and visited. 1.1b entries otherwise, which; for a computer isn’t a lot.
DNS servers replicate down-stream, and the root servers maintain authority. A local SQLite file could handle this easily, and you could always run your own DNS server locally if you wanted to. But there has to be a central authority. That’s why you can have any TLD you want – you run your own DNS. But since nobody sees you as an authority, they won’t be using your DNS.
How is the internet supposed to work if we don’t agree on where every site goes? How are you supposed to decentralize a central agreement?
You can use whatever top level domain you want, you just have to convince everyone in the world to use your Root servers instead of ICANN, which ain’t gonna happen. Tor has the .onion TLD, etc. There are no restrictions here. They’re more like…agreements.

It sounds like it was trained on the private messages of a large platform, and there were a significant number of predators it learned to emulate.
Thankfully, despite naming them like that, it doesn’t actually seem to have any real purpose. Apparently they just wanted to make sure that different companies making different libraries didn’t accidentally use the same name for their project…
Carbon sequestration is such a fucking scam. I hate that all these projects are popping up because they know it’s easy money. Only thing it costs is our planet.
If this is the case than anything beyond a perfect clone is a disability. Shorter than 6’ as a man? Disability. Flat chest as a woman? Disability. Eyes too far apart? Disability.
I have ADHD and I’ve managed life pretty fine, because when I was growing up I was just ‘energetic’. I managed to control my issues over time. Granted – I’m not as severe as some cases; but I think the severity is what should be considered the disease, not the ADHD itself.
It’s so terrible that people are led to believe that their death is worth so much. This poor man lost his life, literally the most precious gift given to you, because he believed that losing it in protest would maybe make a change.
But the sad reality of it, is that he’ll be forgotten and ignored like so many others. He could have made more impact by living.
I’m pretty sure Java doesn’t have pointers, so writing a hello world application isn’t gonna fuck up nearly that hard.
The one thing he forgot though is that your source file is probably in the folder
com/companyname/net/classes/factory/factoryfactory/worker/lib/bin/refresh/jdk/model/ui/closebutton/press.java
And spread out among a bunch of other directories, and the java file is like…3 lines. But there are 10k files spread all around directories like this that are all 3 lines a piece with a class definition.
RIP “are you waiting to receive my limp penis?” guy. He died a couple of months ago.
My windows installs (Win 10 IoT Edition) just boot directly to desktop. Dunno what you’ve borked there.
You should read your own link, because it also mentions that by the end of his term, most disapproved. By 2006 it was viewed as illegitimate by most. My recollection of events is fine, thanks.
America will generally approve of measures when they are led to believe it affects their security and safety. It’s the years afterwards that determine if it continues to hold support.
