This is the part that confused me most. At the first mention of web apps, I just thought, okay, if you have a web server you can have it run under a service account that can do what it needs to do. Sure. Kind of beside the point, but sure.
Then this came at the end and and I did a double-take. He's really suggesting a web app as a substitute for sudo in general? Two questions:
That will work in either zsh or bash, yes. It's a good habit to use quotes, but I am pointing out that quoting and expansion behavior is not the same across all shells.
Yeah, Apple moved to Zsh as default some years back, which is the main reason I'm familiar with its differences in terms of parameter expansion. They still ship Bash 3.2 with macOS, but they can't ship newer versions due to GPLv3 licensing, or something like that. So they had the motivation to switch.
In the Linux world, there's no great motivation to change the default, because Bash 5.x is already comparable to zsh in terms of features, and it's what everyone is already familiar with.
Perhaps I misunderstood OP's question. I figured they meant using variables. Otherwise I don't know how to make sense of it.
In five paragraphs of text there is no description of what the program does in the blog post . Pretty common for open-source blogs and release notes, but I always find it funny. At least this one has a screenshot.
To clarify, I mean to say that users should not consider it an information repository, because it does not function as one, by design. Whether it should be classified as such under the law is another matter, one on which I do not have enough knowledge to comment. I do think OpenAI is presenting ChatGPT inappropriately, and I hope they will be held accountable for that.
I'm sure in the future we will see true databases built on the same technology (and they will be awesome, if implemented properly). But that's not what ChatGPT is (or, as far as I know, any other existing LLM-based application). Any information it is able to "recall" is almost a coincidence of how it was trained. You can sort of think of it like lossy compression. The LLM gets all of its information from its training set, but it is not designed to retain any specific information from the training set in full. In cases where it does, that usually means one of two things:
The information appeared many times in the training set, enough prevent it from being washed out.
The model is far bigger than it should be, and is overfitted to its training data.
I have no knowledge of Brazilian Butt Lifts specifically, but here is some related information about how fat works in general, which I hope is a good starting point:
When performing skin grafts, fat cells retain the characteristics of the original skin location. For example, here is a paper that shows a soldier who had a skin graft from his stomach to his hand, and later developed a kind of "beer gut" on his hand.

The correct answer to this problem is not "we can't correct it"; it is "this class of task is completely out of scope for ChatGPT, and we will do everything we can to make sure users understand that". Unfortunately, OpenAI knows damn well this is how the public perceives and uses its product and seems happy to let this misconception persist.
We do need laws to curb this, but it's really more a marketing issue than a technological issue. The underlying technology is amazing; the applications built around it are mostly garbage. What we have here is a hype trainwreck.
I’m not really into the whole “which DE is better” thing. I think if you like one or the other you should just use it and get on with your life
Totally agree. They behave differently by default, but they are both so customizable that you can make either one behave almost exactly like the other if you want. I like KDE's defaults a bit more than Gnome's, and I like Dolphin more than Nautilus, but I could go back to Gnome and be comfortable within a day. I'd need to spend a little time finding the right extensions and then I'd be good.
It's not like 20 years ago when there was strong motivation to commit to one ecosystem or another. Back then, running Gnome/GTK apps under KDE was kind of funky, and vice-versa. Nowadays, everything is pretty seamless.
Dear Amazon, I bought a toilet seat because I needed one. Necessity, not desire. I do not collect them. I am not a toilet seat addict. No matter how temptingly you email me, I'm not going to think, oh go on then, just one more toilet seat, I'll treat myself.
Doesn't it require jumping through a ton of hoops to install apks from unknown sources on modern Android? How many people are A) capable of doing this, and B) naive enough to actually do it?
That said, I don't use Chrome so I've never seen that incredibly shady-looking real update notification they showed in the article. If Google has indeed trained users to expect and accept something like that, then shame on Google. I can't blame users for thinking the fake one is legit. It looks very similar (and it seems like it would be trivial to make it look 100% identical). But still, how does the apk actually get installed?
For people ages 0 to 2, the model often classified them as being between 12 and 18 years old.
I guess they're just not training with baby pictures then? I mean, this seems like it should be the easiest distinction to make.
Doesn't seem like there's any information on the purpose of this analysis. Google Photos has been doing face recognition and other classification for a long time, and it's genuinely useful because it lets you sort your photo collection by person. It also categorizes pet photos and does a halfway-decent job of distinguishing one pet from another. I'd genuinely appreciate similar functionality in the open-source photo apps I use. This seems like a natural fit for Instagram. Not sure about TikTok, but honestly, I'm too old and ornery to understand how people actually use TikTok.
Back in the 90s, before the DOJ v Microsoft antitrust trial, Microsoft's licensing terms with OEMs required them to pay MS for every unit sold — even units that did not come with Windows. This meant that if Dell or HP or whoever wanted to offer Linux as an option, they'd still need to pay Microsoft for Windows or else lose the ability to sell Windows at all. It made no sense to offer Linux PCs at that point.
Just one of many many examples of Microsoft's illegal anti-competitive behaviors.
