Because they tried leaving it to the private sector and people got unhealthy from eating cheap refined carbs?

Hi-viz, you say?

I think there's a really important distinction between "getting the same result" when that outcome is guaranteed and when it isn't. Using a brick instead of a hammer to squash something will get you the same result every time. But with an LLM there's no guarantee you're going to get any specific outcome - will it hallucinate this time or not? - and so even if it gives you what you wanted this time, you have to account for the probability that existed it would not have done (and that you wouldn't have known it let you down)

Reece's persona is barely contained anger, and it feels like that's not at all far from his personality...

 

Looks like another very strong line-up

What conversation do you believe you're in? This is for UK chat about fish and chip shops.

And the answer to the question should have nothing whatsoever to do with a "fish guy" (FFS), but rather is a chip butty or chips and mushy peas

That looks like it would just about hold an old-school Palm Pilot or Psion - I can't see it holding even a small MacBook in that space

Bran flakes have a lot of sugar in them. I'm sure Special K does too, but I love it too much to risk checking

This is one of his best. Love the overwrought emotions in his hand in the last frame

 

Gboard is getting visibly worse almost on a daily basis, especially autocorrecting perfectly legitimate words, presumably based on dubious analysis of other people's writing. So what's worth trying? The ability to swipe type is a big plus

 

There are several roads near me where it's legal to walk - but where I know that walking would be extremely dangerous because of no footways, narrow carriageways and fast traffic. Is there a way to flag these that would help OSM-based routing services like Strava and Komoot stop recommending them? I know the local area well enough to ignore Strava when it suggests I run along these roads, but I fear for people who don't, and assume the route will be okay

 

I've got an older machine that I'd like to give a second life. I've always been an Ubuntu fan in the past, but checking their site for a lightweight distri it looks like they've gone all 64 bit. Is that right? Can I still get a recent version for a 32-bit processor?

 

I noticed today I was having to use fingerprint unlock every time I wanted to access my 6a, even though normally I use Smart Lock to keep my phone unlocked when it's near my Bluetooth watch. I just checked through the settings and Smart Lock has disappeared, as has on-body detection. Has this happened to anybody else?
