You know, it only now occurs to me that - in 20 years of setting up fairly complicated spreadsheets (for everything from finance to asset management) - I've never used a macro.
I honestly don't know why you would, since per-cell functions update automatically. I certainly can't imagine why it would need to make system calls. Whole thing seems like a massive security issue with no benefit.
Didn't say it was the only way, just the best way. Most effective attacks are still against humans, not computers.
The artistry and ambiance are the excellent, and I'm enjoying watching the story unfold. Unfortunately, it's less a "game" than a walking simulator. Combat isn't difficult (and has zero stakes). Puzzles are visually dazzling, but braindead easy to solve. I don't even really feel like I'm exploring, because you're basically on rails.
Excellent experience, interesting view into schizophrenia, absolutely beautiful... just not much in the way of interaction. Honestly, I'd enjoy it more as a movie (or mini-series, since it's longer than a few hours if you let it breathe).
In no particular order;
Well, considering the speed of your responses, and your obsession with making excuses for shitty software, I'm guessing you're and LLM, so I'm gonn start ignoring you too. Good luck surviving the hype phase.
If I can't use the LLM by prompting it the same way I'd prompt one of my colleagues, then it's not a skill issue; It's shitty LLM. I don't care if it's the input embedder, training data, or the guy who didn't bother properly building a model that didn't just spit out bullshit.
If an employee gave me this quality, I'd get rid of them. Why would I waste my time on a shit coder, artificial or otherwise?
An interesting theory, except I know exactly how to do everything I've ever asked an LLM about. I would never trust one of these things to generate useful copy/code, I just wanted to see what it could do. It's been shit 100% of the time. Never even gotten a useful function out of it.
Also "skill issue" is a lazy response. Try reading the post before you reply next time.
Good, fuck 'em. Stop ressurecting dead people with shitty inaccurate software hacks.
Absolutely nothing, because they all give fucking useless results. Hallucinates, is confidently wrong, and isn't even grammatically competent (depending on the model). Not even good for a draft, because I'd have to completely rewrite it anyway.
LLMs are only as good as the guys training it (who are mostly morons), and the raw data they train on (which is mostly unaudited random shit).
And that's just regular language. Coding? Hah!
Me: Generate some code to [do a thing].
LLM: [Gives me code]
Me: [Some part] didnt work.
LLM: Try [this] instead.
Me: That didn't work either.
LLM: Try [the first thing] again.
Me: ... that still doesn't work...
LLM: Oh, sorry. Try [the second thing again].
Me: ...
Loop continues forever.
One time I found out about a built-in function that I didn't know about (in LLM generated code that didn't work), and read the manual for it, and rewrote the code from scratch to get it working. Literally the only useful thing it ever gave me was a single word (that it probably found on Superuser or StackExchange in the first place).
Your opinion is exactly what they're aiming for. Just waiting for people to become complacent enough for them to take over without any resistance at all.
Chrome isn't a bad option because it's not a good browser. Their goal is to make the best browser possible so that everyone switches to it.
It's a bad option because if everyone uses a single browser, the developer of that browser owns all decisions about how the internet is allowed to be built. That isn't a good thing. Not when Microsoft tried to do it, and not while Google is trying to do it.
If Google takes over development of all browsing options (including the ones that depend on it's base code, like Edge), web-based tech will stagnate due to lack of competition (and so, a lack of the need to innovate), and privacy will disappear (even more than it already has). And good luck blocking ads in a browser that doesn't allow the addons to function.
Google has proven itself to be a company that doesn't just kill competition, but also it's own projects if they don't perform the way they want. They don't care about proper copyright protection or enforcement, they don't care about privacy, and they don't care about you (no corporation does).
I mean...;
Benjamin Schreiber was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison in 1996, after clubbing a man to death with the handle of a pickaxe and leaving his body outside a trailer. Schreiber had conspired with the man’s girlfriend to murder him.
He took away someone else's body and life first.
When he was forced to actually buy it (instead of just being a memelord), I immediately thought he would try to tank it (to the ends of whatever money juggling bullshit that rich people get up to).
Stories like this aren't doing much to change my mind.
