Really good reply, thanks for the effort you put in. Its good to see they did compare with other dialects. It’s interesting that the same bias was not seen.

I would still disagree with the statement that AAE could be considered equally proper to textbook, grammatically correct according to the Oxford English dictionary (or the American equivalent). A dialect by definition is an adaptation of the language from the standard ‘proper’ grammatical rules.

Of course there is a proper english. As defined by standard grammatical rules of the English language. A dialect is a variation upon that. I am not saying “black people don’t speak proper English”. There are plenty of black people who speak proper English, the same as there are plenty of white people who speak proper English and plenty of white people who speak dialects. I am saying that any and all dialects are not formal English, by definition of what the grammatical rules of the language are

This seems to be based on a racist assumption. Why is speaking improper English labelled as “African American english”?. I would want to see the LLM assumptions also for southern drawl and for general incorrectly spelled / grammared speech, to compare to the assumptions made for the African American english version.

Speaking with slang / incorrect grammar is of course, in general, inversely correlated with education level and/or preference for shorthand forms of speech over writing/speaking the full grammatically correct form. The LLM is saying speaking in slang = stupid/lazy.

The researcher is labelling slang as specifically African American speak, therefore interpreting the LLM response as assuming African Americans are stupid/lazy.

What is ETL?

Their website doesn’t say, the hackernews comments don’t say. I could Google it but tbh this is on the people announcing their product to have not even said what it is properly

unless you somehow charge only during times of excess renewable energy. Currently, this is not possible.

This is possible in many European nations, who publish live data on renewal percentage.

In the Netherlands, I have the live green energy data in home assistant. This could quite easily be used to turn on and off car charging

So he is leaving because it “came to a breaking point” where his safety team was not able to do it’s job properly, but he believes the openai team can course the ship in the right direction?

Some careful wording to not burn bridges there

The manager a dev team needs

websites that serve users in the EU need to allow you to decline cookies, not just tell you about the fact they use them. this website is actually breaking EU privacy law, it’s definitely not what a European user would consider protective

Clearly the answer is quadruple A

No wonder companies want to move to a subscription model

Unless I’m reading it incorrectly, the devs changed tact and this was already fixed 2 weeks ago

You’re asking them to set up and maintain another platform for you to … Checks notes… use their FOSS project? Not contribute to development, just…use? That does not seem worth their time. Certainly sounds demanding to step into a project and tell them to do things differently otherwise you won’t honour them with your presence

You’re not “locked out”. You choose to exclude yourself by placing such a high value on privacy. Privacy for what here? For some near-public announcement threads and support channel chats that anyone else in the channel could screenshot or download or post online anyway? That is your choice but framing it as the project developers locking you out is strange.

In the block, the first word should be TODO Then when you click off it, it adds a checkbox at the start

Everything is already a bullet list, that’s the logseq design, so if you also want numbering then use the command key / and search for numbering

Hope that helps!

I would argue that it is as close as you can get to WYSIWYG without being it. Logseq works with blocks, which in most cases are only a line or two long. Every block on the page, except the one you’re actively clicked on /working on are WYSIWYG.

There’s no rendering etc, you just click off the block and you see it

Logseq is very very similar to obsidian but is FOSS.

Supports checkboxes

English is my first language and I’ve never heard of another meaning for rice apart from the food.

Good article!

Maybe it is powered by a rainwater waterwheel, and thermal cooling is provided by inside out rabbit furs?

Maybe logseq?
