It’s been found that LLMs are actually great at decompiling things. Whereas before this process was possible but very time consuming, LLMs can do it in hours/days depending on the software.
So there’s a group that is decompiling Adobe software and rewriting it in Rust, and then published the apps + rewritten code

That would be eventually. But back then, Europe and Asia weren’t continents, they were names of undetermined regions that were north or east of them respectively.
I don’t know when or who decided “you know what? This whole region? It’s a continent, and let’s call it Europe” (maybe the Romans? Or even the Greeks?).
- Comment on This makes so much more sense 2 weeks ago:
Iirc we have the ancient greeks to thank for the current distinction. They named Europe the region north of greece, and Asia the region west of Anatolia, and then eventually decided that their actual boundary should be the middle of the black sea

Being common or niche has nothing to do with the quality of the tool. In fact LLMs should be a niche tool, because there’s only a few use cases where they are genuinely useful.
Thus what I said before, the problem is the companies trying to shove it everywhere without thought or care.
On being accurate or expensive, it depends heavily on what model we’re talking about and what exactly you’re using it for.
Put a light model summarising your web search, yeah, it’s an accident waiting to happen. Put a coding model helping you out building a small function while you focus on the main algorithm, it will save you a lot of time.

Respectfully disagree. It’s because of the systematic insistence that we need to build data centers to support a demand that doesn’t exist.
Same thing would happen if corporations lost their minds over hammers and insisted we had to build hammer factories everywhere and sell hammers to stirr your coffee.
- Comment on Actually... 4 weeks ago:
LLMs are a tool just like any other. There are tasks they can be useful, and others that they’re not.
The problem is that corporations and others are trying to force it down our throats in every single place as possible in their maddening quest to get a return in their investments.

Ahh thanks. But wouldn’t that make you a vegetarian?

It feels like there’s a whole debate about honey I’m unaware of, but isn’t the point of veganism avoiding anything made by animals? If yes, why is honey an exception?

Hi, lurker here. Anyone kind enough to give me some context? Who’s that guy? What happened?

I don’t know who the guy is, what the context might be, and honestly, this is one of those few occurrences that I’m okay with that

Never mind that in those examples that they gave, none of them were elected like Trump was:
Hitler lost the election for president; but was later appointed as chancellor by the guy that won after political pressure;
Mussolini was appointed by the king after threats of paramilitary force;
Leopold II was a hereditary monarch
Sorry US bros. I like you and I love you depending on the days. But just like the French will never live down the white flag meme, you will never live down that you elected a pedophile fascist TWICE.

Pretty sure it’s just a joke post. Someone smart enough to make something like that is also smart enough to not put a neon sign over them with a post like that - if they were serious, I mean.

- Comment on Has society or scientists ever solved definitively the Chicken and the Egg theory? Or is it just like a whose on first thing? 6 months ago:
That was never a “serious” question in that sense. It’s just a philosophical paradox.
The real answer is that you need to look at the ancestry tree. There wasn’t a moment that a chicken popped up, it was a gradual evolution between an ancestor and until a point that we decided “yup, that’s a chicken”.

Kind of, I could think of a few examples in english:
outlook : look out
Overlook : look over
Overtake : Takeover
Upkeep : Keep up
There might be others that I can’t remember right now. I don’t know if for you most of these are cheating since they become two words instead of just being one.
In Portuguese, I really can’t remember any examples
