Serious question: what problems does the default keyboard have that Florisboard is trying to solve? I’ve never looked at the Android keyboard and thought “I wish this worked differently,” except maybe when I switch languages by accident.
This is the second or third version of this story that I’ve heard in this comment chain and I’m having trouble searching for articles about the original incident, hits from the new one are flooding the results. Do you happen to have a link to more info?
Also, because this isn’t anywhere near the first time Emiru has been attacked in public, she points out that she’s spent tens of thousands of dollars for her own private security, and wasn’t even allowed to bring her preferred bodyguard with her because he’s permanently banned from Twitch events due to restraining a stalker during a previous event.
What the fuck? They banned her bodyguard for protecting her and then asked her to come back without him? It’s like they wanted her to get assaulted.
I’m still on Pandora and honestly have no idea how they stack up. I just use it as a radio station on long drives.
Ah, but they don’t have an F1 car, they have a Dallara GP2/08, which was used in the GP2 series! An entirely different thing!
These lists of red flags make me feel like I must be a replicant. I wrote a comment just like that one, em dash and all, on a different site just the other day, with my own organic brain!
My first instinct was to use an em dash instead of that last comma, but it seemed too on the nose.
These are nearly identical on my display!

Lying requires intent. Currently popular LLMs build responses one token at a time—when it starts writing a sentence, it doesn’t know how it will end, and therefore can’t have an opinion about the truth value of it. (I’d go further and claim it can’t really “have an opinion” about anything, but even if it can, it can neither lie nor tell the truth on purpose.) It can consider its own output (and therefore potentially have an opinion about whether it is true or false) only after it has been generated, when generating the next token.
“Admitting” that it’s lying only proves that it has been exposed to “admission” as a pattern in its training data.
Right, but… what does it have to do with Jeeps showing in-car advertisements?
I don’t understand how this is related to the Streisand Effect. The Streisand Effect is when you try to suppress unflattering info about yourself, and in the process you call attention to it, so now everyone knows. But we didn’t learn about this through Jeep trying to suppress the info, we just learned about it from people who saw the ads.
Revanced still works. If yours stopped working, download the latest patches and make an updated .apk.
Oh phonics is the old one (although it’s making a comeback). The “new” one that they’ve been promoting for a couple decades (and have recently realized isn’t very good) is cueing, the one where you just show kids words and encourage them to use context clues to guess what they mean, and hope that they eventually learn to read by doing that. Phonics is the one where you start with letter (and letter group) sounds and learn to sound out words by reading out loud.
She hated the concept of… teaching what sounds letters make? Was she a big proponent of cuing, or something else?
Yes, I think so. I also did Hooked On Phonics with my grandfather before starting kindergarten which meant I could already read by the time we started school. This was in Texas in the early '90s.
It looks like there is a lot to do even for small sites if you assess that you might be in the “multi-risk” category. How do you know if you’re in the “multi-risk” category? Well, you’re supposed to write a risk assessment, but if I were running a site as a hobby I wouldn’t trust my own assessment, I’d want a professional opinion due to the significant legal liability for getting it wrong, and professional opinions cost money. If it turns out you’re low- or single-risk it looks like you can skip a lot of the stuff that big sites have to deal with, but if it turns out you’re multi-risk then it looks like you need to be sure all sorts of measures are in place, some of which may require building capabilities that you don’t have yet, and there are additional requirements related to training and materials for volunteers, etc.
I don’t even run a site and I’m getting stressed reading about it, I don’t blame anyone for deciding it’s not worth it.
I thought our eyes worked by projecting some kind of energy beam that scanned objects, like how Superman’s X-ray vision is sometimes drawn.
“Original” as in it has original ideas, or “original” as in it’s not part of an established franchise? If it’s the latter, I saw The Wild Robot in theaters. It was okay. A bit by-the-numbers, and I’m not sure everything made total sense, but it’s a kid’s movie so that was to be expected.
If the former, then, uh… Problemista? Also in theaters. I really liked that one.
Just scroll past it? I just assume it’s going to be wrong anyway.
Wait did I misunderstand what bikeshedding is? I thought it was the phenomenon where people who have input on project management, but not the skills/background/inclination to wrestle with the hard parts of the project, tend to focus on peripheral issues that they understand better. So, for example, a committee that is supposed to be planning a new hospital spends meeting after meeting arguing about the particulars of the construction of the bike shed, but just rubber stamps the first suggestion they get regarding OR floor plans or whatever, because the committee members can all understand bike sheds but most of them don’t use operating rooms.
If the problem is that you’re thinking of buying a new laptop, it doesn’t seem like bikeshedding to spend time thinking about what kind of laptop you’d like.
