Ah, I didn’t realize the moon could look bigger/smaller at different times. I thought you were saying that the moon is actually the same size as the sun or something like that.

that the moon’s apparent size is due to how close it is to earth (same for seasons and the sun)

Explain?

Also, what’s the size/proximity of seasons?

You weren’t kidding. 12 emails from them within the last week.

Montreal’s a pretty big city. If you’re willing to do it, sharing your local expertise can help a lot of people.

So essentially, they set the party platform and everyone in the party follows that?

So how much power does the party leader actually have in enacting these changes?

The poll in the article…

Would you use an app to unlock retail store displays?

• Yes. If it speeds up shopping, that’s a win for me.

• No. I don’t need an app to shop, and will just find and employee to unlock it.

Where’s the option of “no, I didn’t need it as much as I thought I did”

These lakes are formed when the cloud is saturated and gives us data precipitation.

Wow, my parents had a Samsung and it also broke on the exact same part. No replacement parts available except from a third party seller and it was way too expensive to justify fixing.

The same could be said for when Meta “open sourced” their models. Someone has to do the training, or else these models wouldn’t exist in the first place.

Um akchully…

Median is a type of average

If you don’t know enough to pick a side, then don’t. If the topic comes up, take that opportunity to learn something.

rTorrent with Flood front end.

My only complaint so far is being unable to reach the rTorrent TUI when it’s running headless. It otherwise works great.

Better that they tell us imo. If someone thinks that the people I care about don’t deserve to exist for reasons no one can control, I’d rather know and avoid giving them money than to help them quietly gain influence and power until they can eradicate these people themselves.

In the context of programming:

• Good for boilerplate code and variables naming when what you want is for the model to regurgitate things it has seen before.
• Short pieces of code where it’s much faster to verify that the code is correct than to write the code yourself.
• Sometimes, I know how to do something but I’ll wait for Copilot to give me a suggestion, and if it looks like what I had in mind, it gives me extra confidence in the correctness of my solution. If it looks different, then it’s a sign that I might want to rethink it.
• It sometimes gives me suggestions for APIs that I’m not familiar with, prompting me to look them up and learn something new (assuming they exist).

There’s also some very cool applications to game AI that I’ve seen, but this is still in the research realm and much more niche.

I was that idiot once. Nice to meet you.

Tfw you distrust the scientific establishment and take health into your own hands to stick it to the man. But then you realize you’re the man.

This is the main reason I still keep Windows around. The majority of my stuff “just works” much better on Linux, but every once in a while, you need to interact with someone else via some weird proprietary software and it’s not really reasonable to go “sorry, can’t do it because Linux”, nor is it reasonable to spend several hours figuring out for Linux when I’m likely only using it once.

Windows is completely free though. I don’t even bother to remove the watermark.
