Did the students boo him? I hope so.

Yep, that wouldn't fly in Canada either lol

If you think it has no possibility of success, sit back and relax as AI goes away.

Yep. This is exactly it, and this is what people don't seem to understand. AI is not going away, because it is actually useful, it has actual uses and people are actively using it. It's not entirely fluff based pointless technology like blockchain etc, it is actually useful and real-world people use AI/LLMs.

Ooh, then your mouse can stop working when you run out of meters and then you have to buy more to top it up! Excellent.

FWIW, I've found that the -v flag often doesn't say why it's not using your key, just that it isn't using your key and it has fallen back to password authentication.

It's usually not terribly helpful for figuring out why it's not using your key, just that it's not using your key, which you kind of already know if it's prompting you for a password. lol

Ah yes, but you see, the US government only cares about faceless corporations, business owners and other rich people, and not about the average citizen, sorry. In fact, I would argue most governments are like this.

1TB may have seemed unlimited back then, but now with 8TB, if an uncompressed Blu-Ray is around 50GB, that can fit 160 Blu-Ray movies. Now, 160 movies may seem like a lot, and it is, but think of how many movies there have been overall over time. Then, consider that we're only talking about movies and then there are other things like TV shows, music, games, etc.

You can never have enough storage.

Thankfully that's one thing that can be restored between BIOS versions for my motherboard lol

Depending on your BIOS and/or motherboard, you can't restore them between versions. The point of clearing the BIOS settings after flashing a new version is to ensure that you only have values that are expected, which is why restoring backups can often be blocked between versions.

They aren't that unreliable FWIW. Obviously, it should not be your only copy of media, but I have microSD cards that are still readable with data intact even 10, 11, or more years later.

If you buy quality microSD cards, expect them to last a long time.

Yay, another BIOS update!

I am getting so sick of all these BIOS updates because of all these security vulnerabilities all the time. It is so tiring having to set up my settings all over again all of the time. Earlier this year, or maybe it was last year, it felt like every month or two there was a new BIOS update for a new security vulnerability.

This is just not true.

Just because you don't like LLMs doesn't mean that they have no purpose. If they were really entirely useless and served no purpose and never did anything, they would not be the talk of the town and OpenAI would not be a multi-billion dollar company. If they were useless, nobody would use them, but people absolutely do use them.

I literally use ChatGPT daily to automate writing code for me and it honestly does a good job. I literally used it to write an entire Laravel project called ArigatouAnimeTracker, over 600 commits including documentation all written using ChatGPT, and tbh my project is awesome. It easily would have taken me 5x as long to write it without ChatGPT and tbh it might not have ended up existing without ChatGPT because of how long it would have taken to write without LLMs doing the heavy lifting.

Sure, you have to verify the output, but you know what? That's going to be the case for any code that is written regardless, code review is essential and completely normal and existed long before LLMs did. That doesn't mean that LLMs don't have a purpose, or that nobody actually uses them. People do use them, it's a multi-billion dollar industry for a reason and people are going to continue to use them, even if you say they have no redeeming qualities. There are definitely ethical concerns about LLMs, but to say they have no redeeming qualities is just not correct.

Regardless, anything I say about AI/LLMs that isn’t that it’s terrible and useless and nobody should/would ever use it is going to be met with criticism.
