strobe999's comments

assuming you read the actual blog post and follow-up links, what remains unclear?

Theres an entire manga plus anime adaptation covering this fascinating topic, for anyone invested in these media formats.

Very unfortunate that theres so little talk about this here, formal complaints can be filed here: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/04/21/2023-08...

Surprised not to have seen any talk about this change, please take a moment to submit a formal comment.

Huh, in all these years I never suspected to find resources about SE in standards bodies. Would be nice to have more formal training about SE specific procedures instead of products and general project management. I found the INCOSE Systems Engineering Handbook which seems to be a prolific publication, is it worth studying as an IT SE? Any other recommendations?

Having read several articles and comment threads about the ChatGPT research preview, the general trend seems to criticize its accuracy. I don't see how it even matters.

Traditional internet search engines are biased towards the truth. Search for lies on any given topic and you will find a page telling you about the real truth. Rarely an obvious disclaimer about truthfulness or accuracy of the content.

This language model on the other hand seems doesn't even claim to know the truth. Without asking, it will go out of its way to tell you that it might be wrong for an arsenal of reasons.

With such an ever-present caveat, humility, ChatGPT is what I would call human friendly and what google & co should've been. A search engine acting in the inquirers best interests. Not only sharing knowledge but most importantly - perspective.

I am personally looking forward to a future where this and similar models are readily available to non-technocrats. I imagine using this instead of google for general knowledge would reduce radicalization on any axis and generally broaden empathy.

how would you specify which woman you mean in a same sex couple?

i am personally not in need of this term but think its an especially good fit in this specific context.

context being the defining factor, i would usually not appreciate explicitly reducing a person to their reproductive organs like this but in a discussion about reproduction it actually removes ideology from my point of view.

does it not work?

By the end of the month all national non-qr invoices will be deprecated in Switzerland, making proprietary readers obsolete.

as a young father. your piece elegantly summarizes what im hoping to be to my child. i wish you two many years of curiosity!

OP couldve been a bit more precise in their statement. Downloading is legal, uploading isnt.

As a big fan of both bold accents and orange on white Im liking the prototype thus far!

very much looking forward to this!

My wife and I share the same account to have the same info available on all our devices. This means shopping lists too and thanks to the lightning fast sync our shopping has become distributed, effectively halving the time we spent at the store.

We tried several other apps and this one is worth every penny. Some of my favourite features: - Customize aisles - Auto stacking in shopping list - Clickable timers - Custom import from web - Well working scaling

Strongly recommending this app to anyone.

Sidenote: If available, use a portable scanner at the store. This reduces the amount of times you touch an item significantly, speeding up the experience.

Sidenote 2: To make auto stacking in the shopping list work the item name needs to be identical. We found that separating ingredient from processing works best. So 2 kg potatoes as ingredient and cutting in half in the directions instead of 2 kg of potateos cut in half as ingredient.
