New comment by karencarits in "Early Christian Writings"

karencarits — Sat, 07 Feb 2026 09:27:09 +0000

I will actually argue that it is very useful and wish that more people started to be more specific about their faith. Firstly, stating that one is Catholic/Lutheran/... demonstrates that one understand that one is not representing the entire Christianity. Secondly, it is useful for discussion as it makes one's dogmas/axioms more explicit. And thirdly, it allows better granularity as some general teachings are really Christian (like the resurrection and most of the Credo) while other are specific to the tradition one follows (like the sacraments).

For example, a Catholic would hesitate to receive a "Christian eucharist" as the Catholic and protestant understanding of the Eucharist is so profoundly different

A final point, given the subject of the thread, is that since the Catholic Church regards itself as founded by Christ, it is older than the Bible, and that the Bible was primarily written by the Church, for the Church, to complement Tradition. They would consider splintering off Tradition and leaving Catholicism as moving away from Christ (as Christ is head of the Catholic Church)

This looks really interesting! I am studying "knowledge-heavy" subjects with lots of facts I need to learn, and have been looking for software where I can write flashcards directly within my notes, and both review them when reading my notes, and globally across notes. I like to have my notes locally, so I didnt find any good solutions. But there are some parsers for anki that can process markdown documents and extract items within them

I guess we could also flip it and ask why don't we offer PhDs in developing software for public administration?

One possible solution could be to give you an option to send the affected password as a list to the mail address you specify, then only people with access to that mail address will see them

Getting backups right _is_ difficult and can easily be quite stressful. Yes, having some external drives here and there with files would of course be helpful. But then, should you encrypt them in case of theft? Where to keep them in case of fire? What to do with "old" backups (can I trust the drive to live more than 2 years? 5 years?), copy them over to new drives? But what then with duplicated files? I think having backups in the cloud is currently the best "backup and forget" strategy

I guess the paper would be complete enough to publish as a preprint at the stage where this specific service is most useful

Great! Also, checking journal author guidelines is usually very boring and time consuming, so that would be a nice addition! Like, pasting the guidelines in full and getting notified if I am not following some specs

I'll hopefully get to test it soon. To me, LLMs have so far been great for proofreading and getting suggestions for alternative - perhaps more fluent - phrasings. One thing that immediately struck me, though: having 'company' in the URL makes me think corporate and made me much more skeptical than a more generic name would.

Thank you, but what do you use the llm for? Writing new documents based on previous ones? Tagging/categorization/summarization/lookup? RAG? Extracting structured data from them?

But what do you do with these secrets? Like tagging emails, summarizing documents?

What use cases are people using local LLMs for? Have you created any practical tools that actually increase your efficiency? I've been experimenting a bit but find it hard to get inspiration for useful applications

That's not the point. While there is a temperature setting and randomness involved, you can still benchmark and experience significant differences in the output between models and generations. I thus provided more details and the full output to make it easier for people to assess the context of the comment I replied to

When someone uses the same tools as I do but seem to experience problems I do not have - these kind of posts often describes how bad LLMs are or how bad Google search is - I get a bit confused. Is it A/B testing going on? Am I just lucky? Am I inattentive to these weaknesses? Is it about promoting? Or what areas we work in? Do we actually use the same tools (i.e., same models)?

It's difficult to assess how typical your experience is; I tried your initial prompt (`Write me a simple todo app on cloudflare with auth0 authentication.` on gemini-2.5-pro-preview-05-06) and didn't get any mentions of @auth0-cloudfare, although I cannot verify if the answer is working as-is

Sorry, I wasn't aware the page parameter when pasting the link so don't read anything into that, I have not personally posted in that thread. But I strongly support H_Express in his case that dated models should not suddenly be redirected to another endpoint

New comment by karencarits in "First American pope elected and will be known as Pope Leo XIV"

karencarits — Thu, 08 May 2025 20:13:44 +0000

I think it's also important to recognize that while the Catholic church has values and principles they adhere to and are unlikely to change because they are so deeply founded in tradition and scripture - for example, that marriage (as in the sacrament) is between a man and a woman - the "men of the cloth" are expected to take care of their ministry as caring and loving sheperds. But that process is often based on personal and individual relationships and they will not reach headlines in the media.
