Yes! Proper modules support would give c++ a well needed boost (no pun intended!). msvc is kinda there, but it breaks here and there with intellisense.

Maybe i did something wrong, but the first mistral gguf i downloaded from hugging face and used with llama2 ended every answer with something along the lines of "let us know in the comments" and answers felt like blog posts. :D

And not about "alien robots who can disguise themselves by transforming into everyday machinery, primarily vehicles" [1] either. :)

At first i was like "What?! Do we really need a tutorial on how to write and keep text files?!".

But then i realized, that some coworkers of mine were astonished and intrigued by the idea that i keep random notes in simple textfiles (although not in such a tidy hierarchy, but just using the current date as filename).

I was tempted to answer the title with "domainname checks out", but that wouldn't do hackernews any justice.

Although imho it seems really random what makes it to the frontpage i agree that there is always an interesting mix of blog posts, news articles and technical content.

Maybe it also depends on the time of the day (different audiences active, having a slightly different taste)?

Maybe i am wrong, but isn't that what happens currently with different services a sign that the "it's free, you're the product" thing kinda starts to fail or needs to get renamed into "it's free, you're our product"?

Let's assume it's all about ML/AI learning or data mining. Then you either keep a free, but walled garden (to be the only one to mine the data of your users) or you offer a "for pay" service (to offset the cost of the increased load on your network / systems), not mining your users data and allowing them to share content public.

Because if twitter decides that your email (address) is too temp, they might ask you for a phone number. And burner phones without (or with low hurdle) registration / verification aren't a thing everywhere.

The title of the article is kinda the answer at the same time. Chatbots don't know what stuff is. They have no ability to gain knowledge out of learned text, just counting occurences of words in texts and giving them a weight, depending on the relationship in that text. They are just putting combinations of text together.

And the concept of negating something related to something else kinda needs an understanding of the topic at hand.

I never understood that thing around the Smash games. Looking at them from outside, they look like a "cute" beat'em'up fighting game for spending some fun time, not like something for "serious" championships, tournaments and the like.

And that is kinda the problem with current AI. It feels like you give a kid a bunch of books (and an computer with internet access) and tell it "Here are some textresources, now go and learn the words (in case of an text AI), but don't try to understand the wider context of the text you just read. We won't help you, but tell you off, in case you say something bad afterwards".
