[Oracle] denies that “JavaScript” is a generic term.

Sure, sure Oracle, no one uses it in a generic way. Side note, today I learned that Oracle owns the trademark.

Glad I could be of service! One day you’ll maybe turn into a something resembling a decent human being if you keep it up.

Time very much isn’t a human construct, it’s a physical existing thing.

Is it? Granted, I don’t know where OP is from, but in my country 18 doesn’t change much. High school for most ends when they’re 19 or 20, so life does speed up after that, but 18 doesn’t really change anything except being allowed to drive and drink alcohol (not at the same time).

I do give a shit, so next time move on.

You know that usually nothing really gets deleted in any production system, right? Everything’s just given a “deleted” flag, usually because accidentally deleting something is way too permanent. But in Reddit’s case also because they want your data.

So unless you’re asking for a GDPR delete every day, you’re doing the worst possible thing: feeding Reddit your data while deleting it from the users, meaning no one but Reddit benefits from your content.

They said “honestly” didn’t they?

That sounds like no one really tried. Like, sure, you’ll get bullshit occasionally, but in the code you know exactly what the NPC is doing, so crafting a prompt based on that is not really that hard and will work most of the time, especially for the simple NPCs.

Yeah, the story is awesome, weird in a good way. Can’t wait for Control 2.

No, they’re very clear: only CSAM will be scanned. So if they don’t know, they won’t scan it. /s

That’s doable, though, simply create an official app called “Pedo Chat for Sharing CSAM” and scan only that single app.

You need to send a lot of metadata unencrypted for decentralised e2ee to work.

Compare metadata leak between centralised Signal (which goes to impressive lengths to know as little as possible about you) and decentralised Matrix.

1. bully OS providers into compliance, Google/Apple knows which apps you have installed and which apps you open.

2. assume anyone using VPN or Tor or similar is suspicious, with deep packet inspection you can get a lot of information - even if it looks like nonsense data, you absolutely can infer patterns if you have enough data.

I can’t. The noblemen and church always wanted to control the masses. The only thing that changed is we don’t call them noblemen anymore and church doesn’t do it openly anymore.

They’ll tell you anything to make you believe they’re controlling you for your own good.

If they didn’t understand what’s wrong with the proposal, they wouldn’t add an exception for politicians.

That’s funny, because the only people who should have their private messages scanned are politicians because in theory they serve all of us and there’s no other control mechanism for the masses.

But somehow it ends up they being secretive and our private lives shared with them (and let’s be honest, most of the CSAM is from rich people and there’s a curious overlap between rich people and top politicians).

Save me!

Just backup locally and save it wherever you want, for free. Storing backups takes space and someone has to pay for it.

What would you expect out of Russia?

That’s not a racist question, IMO. Like, I’d say British. I guess it depends on the country. And both Britain and my country are predominantly white.

That people came in with racist responses doesn’t mean the question itself is racist.

That’s not the argument the article makes. It makes the distinction that ChatGPT is a web service and not an LLM, as opposed to GPT the model.

Why that distinction needed to be made in an article is anybody’s guess.

This is kinda common in PHP. Not in the sense you’d use it every day, but you’d definitely encounter bitflags in PHP.

In that sense yes, but IMO it falls a little bit short on multiple fronts.
