Arguably there was not much interest on those platforms. I believe you will be right eventually when physical access of the actual machines are kept away from us, so it’s a matter of solving the latency issue.
I mostly program with Vscode/Copilot, where such commands require confirmation, but usually LLMs does not try it, since my prompts tend to be focused and not mentioning it.
You are not alone, for me committing something it means I am signing my responsibility for it. I may not type a password, but I am always the one pressing the enter key.
The table select option in Okular is also great, as you can manually rearrange the divisions. For low volume, of course. Tabula will work better otherwise. I also suggest Libreoffice Calc, the .csv support is leagues ahead of Excel.
Not a heavy user but I got a feeling for this early since I have a Copilot subscription I get for free as an educator.
I used in a day or two the limit that would last me a month. Downgrading from Sonnet to Gemini Flash was the only way to keep the limit longer, and who knows when cheaper models will be discontinued for something more expensive.
I don’t know if the prices will remain low, but at least Chinese models being open make them have no control over when it is discontinued, I think learning to work with open models is a good direction, even if not running it on your own hardware.
That could be an advantage if your work requires some kind of sustained concentration, for the other party at least.
I like using by headphones (which are big and over the ears) as a way to signal when I’m on concentration mode and don’t want to talk, but I do that maybe 30-40% of the time.
> When I started out, I dreaded the moment when I hit the validate button on my finished book after months of work, because it would always find something to cry about.
I remembered one particular master student on the verge of tears trying to compile his LaTeX thesis draft, he took the “write and think about formatting later” too literally and was trying to compile it for the first time very close to the deadline.
I find it hard to believe that they were doing an experiment with tech that can fly by itself and pick targets but did not have its own camera and recording device.
The article mentions that they had to go to the area with different drones and saw dead people then assumed the cause of death was the automated drones.
That’s quite reasonable. Props for them for doing it.
Without updates included, buying a lifetime license nowadays feels more like a subscription which expires as soon as your OS upgrades instead. It also creates a lot of friction with different file formats when you try to collaborate. companies know how to exploit this to force you into subscriptions.
For laptops, what I had in mind is excellent power management and efficiency, it seems to correlate with ARM but I think most people don’t really care for the details of architecture.
Depending on how easy it is to run Linux on this as opposed to the new MacBooks may make this attractive for Linux users.
Anyway, the whole trend to change from x86 to Arm on laptops is bad news for compatibility. It might be that the era where you can download an iso and expect Linux to run on a random laptop is over, and Linux users will have to stick to only a couple of devices with well known support. Did Valve release a laptop yet?
I didn’t like that you are not supporting Linux in your free tier.
Edit: if it is not clear, the way you treat the community is one way I evaluate my decisions to support or not your company when I suggest using your products to others, students or not.
Interestingly toy stores are still a thing in Japan. I took my 2 year old daughter to buy her birthday present this year. Her smile when I told her she could take the toy plush home was priceless.
I asked her if she wanted the big or small version, she liked the small. Showing kids toys on a tablet is never going to replace the experience.
It has good build quality. It has been a great experience _for me_. Sorry, I don’t care if the logo is shiny or not.
I said I’d recommend a tablet for people that need a stylus, meaning to do art, I don’t think a Neo is good for that, but for other users, I stand on my opinion that the Neo can in many cases be a better deal than a tablet.
In some countries the number of kids born through c-section are very high, more than half the kids in Brazil are born that way for example, so definitely people can be healthy without getting it from their mothers.
