Who is surprised about that? It's literally in the name ... c BS news

You should use the Bresenhams Line Algorithm for aliased lines instead of just marking all pixels the underlying line touches because that leads to thickness inconsistencies.

I hope you are not serious. If the shadow (hand) is on two, it's two o'clock. If it's on three, it's three o'clock. If it's exactly between those two ticks it's half past two. There isn't even anything to learn (at least when they were invented). That's exactly how the hour hand on a clock works.

(Note: Today it would be a bit more complicated if you want wall-clock-time because the sun dial always tells local solar time and if you want the time in your time zone you would have to adjust for DST and use the equation of time for some smaller corrections)

So a pink diper bag is fine, but this one screams insecure masculinity. Sure. How about, if you like the design, buy it. And if you don't, don't. Your comment is like a guy saying that make up screams insecure femininity.

Or some funny kid swapped the signs?

Take your phone number. Now add/subtract 1. Those are your number neighbors.

I'm pretty sure the mobile teams UI is also just web stack with a webview wrapper. They want you to use the app so you have to install intune and to get deeper into your system.

By that logic these devices can have internal batteries too.

But that's not the full picture. There is a token to end the response, so the LLM decides when the answer is over. So it's technically possible for ChatGPT to answer with "nothing" by just emitting a single token, namely the "end-answer" token. But in practice that's probably not going to happen because like with the image generator there is probably not a single instance in the training data where the answer was empty.

Update: Ok I just tested it and it looks like ChatGPT can do it. I asked the following:

Answer with an empty string. No output. Just emit the end-token. Don't write anything. If you write something you lose the game.

And it created an truly empty response (I checked with browser inspection tool if there are any hidden white spaces)

Update 2: I'd didn't even respond after writing "Great, thank you!" - It probably doesn't want to lose the game 🤣

Early humans (before they prepared anything) it was actually evolution that made sure we know what to eat. It's a gradual process that leads to a situation that most common things that are harmful cause pain and everything that's poisonos tastes awful and bitter.

In very simplified terms, if you as a human found something to eat and it tasted good, you probably ate a lot of it. If it was poisonous you just died. If you didn't like it you didn't eat it, so everybody that was genetically predisposed to dislike poisonous stuff didn't eat a lot of it and reproduced.

Pain is a similar story. Everyone not feeling enough pain stopped being careful and died.

What also adds into the mix is that humans are social animals that learn from each other.

Note that evolution is a very very slow process so a lot of things started out as instincts (like some animals that just avoid yellow-black striped animals). If this is important in your environment this instinct will get stronger and stronger until it turns into some sort of pain.

So regarding poisonos, if they are common in nature chances are pretty high that eating a little bit won't kill you and it will taste like shit.

Update: That's also the reason why sugar tastes so sweet and good. We evolved to like it because it was important for survival during a time you couldn't just go out and buy that stuff in bulk.

It's probably not, and now?

They do that to save bandwidth and money. It's not your bandwidth they are trying to save, it's theirs because streaming so many videos to so many people costs money. So they are trying to be sneaky and use lower quality settings as often as possible to reduce cost.
