I just noticed that it’s a config option. Weird that it’s so short though, I can understand why it may be needed for users who spawn hundreds of sessions a day

Isn’t “Anthropic won’t fix it” a little sensational for barely month old issue with little activity(two upvotes, one of which is me), in backlog of 5k+? Agree that it’s a real issue that need fixing however

The link sharing platform is full of people interested in sharing links, that makes sense, similar to how a mall would be full of people interested in shopping

What definition of “often” includes a 0.21% rate?

I created a watcher for this problem, to watch my PRs for unfinished scope and have a fresh Claude review

I dont uninstall apps that annoy me with notifications, but I do disable them. Most of my notifications these days are news or texts. So be it

In light of recent concerns about hantavirus, but more importantly, the outbreaks of measles popping up because the antivaxxer movement is growing, I am wondering, what, as an adult can I do day to day to ensure that my immune system is safe from any wanton disease (to the extent it can be). Any checkups that are beneficial that I may be missing?

Or create "blind" benchmarks.

10 groups of 3 researchers, all have their own benchmarks that they do not share (testing it without the authors knowing is a different problem, maybe they only run the benchmarks when the gen-pop has access to the models).

that's 10 different tests. Aggregate pass rates

“Exam Question: {prompt}” was enough to get me the right answer on whatever model you get with logged-out ChatGPT.

Neither prompt was enough for llama3.3 or gpt-oss-120b

The PhD can't read minds, the quality if the request from a moron would be worse than the quality of the request from someone with avg intelligence. And the output would probably noticeably differ accordingly

It depends on if the people with weapons can find the people with food. With no rule of law, everything is on the table. Warlords still exist in many parts of the world today

I’m wary ofhardware 2fa because I’m prone to losing things. Do you have a plan for if that happens?

I am acutely aware that if I were targeted by a non sophisticated actor (like a very motivated hacker, or a phone/laptop thief with programming knowledge), I would be toast if they figured out, e.g my windows password, as that is the key to my Chrome keychain, for e.g, which allows them into a pandora's box of accounts.

Even more likely, if I were to get a laptop stolen while unlocked, they could get access to my primary email(s), which could lead them to getting access to accounts via password reset. There were a lot of similar other failure points I used to keep enumerated mentally, but now there's too many to count. The biggest ones are email access however.

Is there a process or method I can use to enumerate/track and fix those kids of failure points in my personal cybersecurity?

The take home assignment is to create a web service that changes the color of a cube, hardly anything cutting edge. Do you expect to be paid for coding interviews too?

Click the link of the take home and tell me if you expect it to take you more than 20 minutes. I don’t understand the resections here

I wonder if the people replying bothered to look at the take home question. I wish I had an interview like that, it would be the second easiest interview I’ve ever done in my life, and then task is interesting and easy to me, as someone who just started learning unity a week ago
