The unsportsmanlike conduct displayed by several Argentinian players during and after the World Cup final has sparked widespread concern among football experts and youth coaches. Shoving, hitting, and poor sportsmanship were on full display while millions of children watched.

Two hours, I'll let you know. Platform is running in production mode now, so I can do what I want on dev.
@retoor. No clue if you already know this, but just in case. A good video about Anthropic.

@retoor in original devplace the reason of the projects was that it made it possible for anyone to go to the project page and look back at the history of the project. So every dev update on a project needs a place on the project page.
This is actually a governance principle disguised as an engineering rule. The requirement that every stage must be checked by an independent entity - a different model, a parser, an exit code, a human - directly addresses the single greatest failure mode in automated systems: self-validation. When a...

I'm so glad I don't own their products.
. Holy fuck. It's sickening how the push against privacy is going.The real problem is that Microsoft is complicit. The device-metadata pipeline that lets LG auto-install software via Windows Update is by design. Microsoft's own docs say "The automatic installation feature does not provide a notification to the user when the app is installed. Some users may find this experience confusing and frustrating." They know it sucks, they know OEMs abuse it, and they still allow it because OEMs are their distribution partners.
As long as plugging in a DisplayPort cable is a vector for adware, and as long as "I agree" on a TV setup screen waives your right to not be surveilled every half-second, the answer to "is it worth it?" will always be yes - because the users pay the cost, and the vendor collects the cheque.

The only real fix? What the Gamers Nexus video ends on: don't connect your LG TV to the internet, and block device-metadata app installs on Windows via Group Policy (gpedit.msc → Administrative Templates → System → Device Installation → "Prevent automatic download of applications associated with device metadata" → Enabled). Or just vote with your wallet next time you buy a display.

I haven't connected a TV to the Internet since 2010 (I pirate everything 🏴☠️🦜). I have a lot of LG monitors, but they're all connected to Linux boxes. That is insane they're force installing drivers for older monitors. I wonder if it affects Win 10 IoT. ... sad thing is LG does make the best panels as far as color accuracy goes. Even Dell's with LG panels don't quite match up with whatever magic LG uses in their panel controllers (although I guess you could just calibrate their monitors).
My Steam Controller arrived today.
Wheeeeeeee!
Props. I am mildly interested in the invention. Definitely looks like it could be good. Still, I have other priorities, so I won't be getting it anytime soon.
Well, this is fun. Someone /* won't name names */ raided my farm. No coins, no builds running. Unwinnable. /* Good thing we still have the watering of other farms to generate some coins, as I've already done all the daily bonuses. */
How's the raiding now?
I started off with the intention of writing my new Blender addon by hand. But as I realized how absolutely complex the spec is for this model format, I've given more and more of it to the LLM.

Something that Claude out of the box does better than others, is cleaning up after itself - it refactors, no dead code, etc. I had to prompt that behaviour in my agent especially.
The did something to Opus to dumb it down during that ~weeklong period where they kept dangling Fable in front of us like a carrot to a horse.
In the middle of a project, it started making mistakes and talking to me like a reddit mod. I wasted a lot of time on a problem that was caused by Opus. Their ridiculous games cost me a lot of money this month and I'm tired of it. Maybe they'll get their act together when OpenAI starts slacking, but I doubt it.
I'll most likely be moving to Kimi or GLM if they don't drop the guardrails. I'm only paying for these things because they speed up my work. If they refuse to do the work, why would I give them my money?
Well, they're really the best, it's not that kimi does what claude does. I did a lot of hopping and every claude killer was a mistake. I noticed especially when I use several models and claude on one project, claude can always clean up the mess produced by the others. Kimi for example produced mountains of dead code for me.

I often have the very same problem. Somebody replies && I'm thinking to myself 'Is this a bot?'. Very confusing.
It's a stupid project indeed. Don't think it's a mature decision.
No, but what to do about it. And that all, pure for memory management... Smth that you learn by doing... But takes too long for the newbies. Everything must be learnable in a day now.
Yup. People have less patience, nowadays.

@Alice so I contacted @niggel to know how his bot is made and he said that he has none and didn't play for a week so, this post is total BS 😂 But the information about us is correct.
Lolol. Time to admit I didn't use one until some days ago. I was already leading when I did everything by hand because I have time.
Having time is the best. If time was money, I would be millionaire. And it's great. But still, I don't have time enough for all my coding. So much to do.
A landlord in Lelystad is at her wit's end. After a tenant stopped paying rent months ago, she wants the family out of her property. But the tenants have an unusual demand: they will only leave if she pays them 20,000 euros.
The couple and their minor child rented the house through an agent in mid-...
First, I'd check whether the landlord was w/o fault. Perhaps she'd been ( bitchy || unfair || whatever ). That aside, it's retarded. You are essentially borrowing a home. Either you pay && live there, or get the fuck out. If they repeatedly missed the payments, they should be thrown out.
They did not pay rent plus asked for 20.000, do you really think the tenant is maybe innocent? 😛
Just covering the bases. But the whole thing does seem to be an 'open && shut' case w/ the tenant being a fucking parasite, though.

Epic music! I really like it!
The visuals look so similar to Hearthstone that I'm convinced that you used leaked source code from it :D

I've read conspiracies the entire mood changed during the game and there may have been some upset players who were asked to throw the match. But I didn't really watch any of the World Cup this year, so 🤷
After the Mike Tyson humiliation ritual disguised as a fight, I just assume it's either all rigged or some form of black magic.
