conlang idea: mixed language where each source language is used for a different case/declension. for example, the singular form of a noun comes from language A, but its plural is the same word from language B. kind of like person/people but more extreme

Maybe "Flip a coin. Heads or tails?" is a better prompt that implies each trial is independent. But it seems like the second result always differs from the first

ChatGPT seems to be able to give either 0 or 1 for the first prompt. But I wonder what the probability is that the second choice matches the first. It's probably way less than 0.5, but could it be zero?

it's interesting conlangs found new uses outside their niches, if only by YouTubers to expand watch time with audio tracks

Is "win" a word that Claude uses a lot or is it just typical business speak

I was thinking about this in the context of AI and how people couldn't do anything at Cal hacks because no wifi, but I guess it's topical now because of internet blackouts in a certain country

Or could take it a step further by just cutting the power, so you have to bring your own battery packs/lights. So your programs will have to be energy and thermally efficient without AC

There should be a hackathon, like "code after dark", where all hacking takes place in a venue with no wifi and mobile data jammed by everyone's hotspots. So you have to come in having downloaded all your docs and local models

RT @sheep_tester test

but what if the pentagon decides to enders game anthropic claude into, idk, making a simulation to train soldiers, but lo and behold the game is actually real and they've been duped into making fully autonomous weapons

and on github

this is what a 1044-way git merge looks like in vscode

@QuintonioTG @MinecraftMeme16 But if we step further and precisely define a door as 3 pixels thick, then 6 planks / (2 * 3/16) = 16 doors by volume

@MinecraftMeme16 Actually, this makes the most sense, doors are 2 blocks tall so obviously you should get 3 from 6 blocks! I'd even take it a step further and say that you should get 6 does because a door is (to make things simple) half a block wide

Totally accurate crafting

like in javascript, if you have } then you're basically cooked, and there's no code you can add that can fix that syntax error

is there a programming language where you can always undo/prevent whatever is written earlier by appending more code

hmm

damn tis been a while since they didnt link to some ad (nowadays gemini) down there

making me Google this when I click on their logo feels like a flavor of cultural appropriation

now that discord age verification bypass has been reported on by youtubers, if discord keeps breaking the script, people'll start looking for other scripts that claim to work and find seo slop that has them run a token stealing script

finally found a way to make youtube shorts from their home page redirect to normal video pages (where arrow keys work), without it reloading the page (which resets the recommendations when you go back)

as LLMs take longer and longer to "think," it feels like a text chat isn't the right interface for them anymore what if they made it look like email ?
