Not strictly LLMs, but neural nets are really good at protein folding, something that very much directly helps understanding cancer amount other things. I know an answer doesn’t magically pop out, but it’s important to recognise the use cases where NN actually work well.

Oh, that’s actually good to know. I guess it makes sense for when you don’t have a good connection as well.

Same. Self hosting it sounds nice, and I self host a handful of services, but I don’t want to be stuck without passwords in another country with a dead server at home because a power cut happened at some point.

I assume you’re talking about creating a VPN into your own personal network? Unless you have family or friends in a different country I fail see how you’re circumventing geo restrictions or gain anonymity on the internet.

We had a great saying in a team I uses to be on: “Write good code and hope no one notices”

I see you are getting some down votes, it’s not me, I swear! Your views on this are sound in my eyes.

I should have said I liked the rest of your post, it was only the bit I quoted I wanted to add in my opinion, but I kinda forgot to mention that :)

I’m with you on the misinformation bit. But while it wouldn’t be honest to report that Google is restricting developers now, I think it’s absolutely fair to criticise and react to them building the scaffolding for such abuse down the line.

Like the UK isn’t outright banning websites promoting trans rights or other “undesirable” political movements, but they now have the technical and legislative tools to easily expand on it.

I’m not equating the two, and I agree it’s important to differentiate between what’s currently happening and what could be.

“Google refusing to grant an account to people they don’t like, although they haven’t done that yet”

I have no trust that they will play honest or cleanly with that. Google has a knack for banning accounts randomly, and that’s a ban for everything, gmail, YouTube, AdSense. Now give them a reason to ban me for any of the apps I choose to sign. Created an app for tracking ICE agents? Good bye gmail account. A VPN app to circumvent porn bans and the government said that’s a no-no? No, more account for you.

The old “old.reddit.com” trick still works. It also works for other nsfw communities.

Compared to something multi threaded, yes. But there are obviously a number of bottlenecks that might diminish the gains of a multi threaded program.

Ed.

Do I remember right that the special forces add-on was an online only purchase? I’m pretty sure the euro forces one was at least. I remember not having the new weapons for a long time until I could log in to my account on a friends computer with it installed.

Oh I’ve actually heard of Pluto.tv and watched it somewhere.

I’m not trying to make a point, I’m just curious how many this impacts and so on. I imagine it will go down similar to Netflix account sharing crackdown; generally viewed unfavourably, but will convert enough users to pay for it to be worth it.

How is Plex used if you aren’t using it to stream your self hosted media? I remember seeing channels and such before. Is all the official stuff licensed content? I can’t imagine their offering is very competitive.

So when a full backup is recommended, does that include media files, or is it just the cache(?) and jellyfin database?

Google Video or it didn’t happen!

Most currencies today are fiat currency. They only got value because they are the official currency of a nation and their government says so and people have the belief it has value. The US dollar used to be backed by gold but was stopped in the 70’s.

Yes, but everything red shifts “naturally” as well as the light travels because of the expansion of the universe. So something traveling towards us will still red shift, just slightly less so. To determine distance you have to use something called the cosmic distance ladder. It consists of known properties of stellar objects that we can measure to determine the distance of objects.

We need to get Euler in there as well!
