Be sure to drink your Ovaltine!

I feel like I'm being rickrolled over and over again by infomercial-grade slop.


It's also TV in 1950.


Perhaps consider making some tutorials, then, and share your wealth of knowledge rather than calling people stupid.


I wouldn't want to rob them of the satisfaction of self-reliance.


It's a social-media-level of fact checking, that is to say, you feel something is right but have no clue if it actually is. If you had a better source for a fact, you'd quote that source rather than the LLM.

Just do the research, and you don't have to qualify it. "GPT said that Don Knuth said..." Just verify that Don said it, and report the real fact! And if something turns out to be too difficult to fact check, that's still valuable information.


I quite like the 2x3 grid of videos. No complaints, actually.


It's 1.5x3 if you have a 21:9 screen. It's so bad.


Yeah, the Steam HW survey shows that 16:9 resolutions form a majority (60%+) of their users with 1080p + 4K, so it makes sense as a default design choice for a company that only wants to target one ratio.

As a former user of 16:10, I feel your pain, though.


I saw profiles across different searches which had no contact info listed, seems like it isn't really designed to be a hiring tool.

I'm very skeptical of the claim that you'll be able to identify people by "usefulness of code", whatever that means.


also most of the people found will not be interested in changing jobs. but github doesn't tell you that so they can't be filtered out.


"There are no shortcuts, you have to put in the work." Spoken like someone who doesn't use an SRS system, then. They're actually extremely hard to use, because the focus is on feeding you the toughest possible version of every recalled card. Part of why people quit using them is because it's mentally exhausting!


Anecdotally, English/History/Communications professors are confirming cheaters with them because they find it easy to identify false information. The red flags are so obvious that the checker tools are just a formality: student papers now have fake URLs and fake citations. Students will boldly submit college papers which have paragraphs about nonexistent characters, or make false claims about what characters did in a story.

The e-mail correspondence goes like this: "Hello Professor, I'd like to meet to discuss my failing grade. I didn't know that using ChatGPT was bad, can I have some points back or rewrite my essay?"


For longer beer drinking sessions, store in a double walled vacuum-sealed insulated bottle, of course.
