In French, there is “ça va?”, which can be translated as “it goes?”. It is also a valid response to itself too, so the conversation flow might just be “ça va? ça va.”

I can’t imagine their software and bookkeeping would be significantly different from any other international logistics company?

Pre-commit hooks can’t be installed automatically and most people won’t even know they exist.

pre-commit also has a free service for open source GitHub repos too. They’ll even push an autofix commit for you if your tools are configured for it

They would dominate because they make a good product that isn’t more expensive than it has to be. US car companies have discontinued most affordable options to try and force people to only buy larger, higher end vehicles that most people have no use for. Now they’re mad that international companies are willing to sell the products they refuse to.

All you have to do is present credible evidence that these companies are distributing copyrighted works or a direct substitute for those copyrighted works. They have filters to specifically exclude matches though, so it doesn’t really happen.

It’s like stealing from shops except the shops didn’t lose anything. You’re up a stolen widget, but they have just as many as before.

Detecting a hallucination programmatically is the hard part. What is truth? Given an arbitrary sentence, how does one accurately measure the truthfulness of it? What about the edge cases, like a statement that is itself true but misrepresents something? Or what if a statement is correct in a specific context, but generally incorrect?

I’m an AI optimist but I don’t see hallucinations being solved completely as long as LLMs are statistical models of languages, but we’ll probably have a set of heuristics and techniques that can catch 90% of them.

Reddit already heavily censors anything pro-Palestinian.

I don’t know any Vietnamese, but I suspect it would be as awkward of an answer as “not no” in English.

I think that the best way to learn programming techniques is to actually do projects and make mistakes. It is one thing to understand a design pattern in theory, and another thing to be able to use that design patterns to solve real problems. Once you get deep enough into a specialty, then look for well-regarded talks and conferences in your niche.

We’ve been here for a few years, but we’re grateful to have new people!
