in this process it is just normal to get runtime errors. Your expectation is too high imo.

So which is then? You want a one off script to just quickly crunch some numbers on a problem you still need to understand? Because that is where it is perfectly normal to get some errors and doodle around. That is the entire point of it.

Or you have a concise concept of what you are going to do, and how and why? Because that is what you do, when you program more than a “one off”.

Either you go to the store with a shopping list and you work through that list or you go browsing and see what comes up. But don’t expect to be as fast and have everything you needed, when you dont write your shopping list at home.

I meant in the sense, that if you had to install a new OS on a device, doing a beginner friendly linux distro is easier than bypassing TPM requirements and then dealing with the fallout of that in Windows 11.

I trust you not to ask your aunt to install an OS by herself.

That sounds a hell lot more complicated than installing a linux distro like mint or ubuntu.

90 weeks is more like 20 month and i could calculate that off of my head by knowing that a year has 52 weeks. I would have struggled more with days.

You could make this criticism about any date metric that it gets more or less easy to translate into a different metric.

Weeks are perfectly fine and most commonly used in the business context.

There is criminal, not civil courts, that were sucessfully drowned in the cum-ex robberies. They gave up on prosecuting people who stole billions from the federal budget, because they were unable to process the amount of files brought by the defense, before the statue of limitations expires.

So if even prosecuting theft of billions of Euros is subject to this tactic smaller civil cases can be too. And the court, because of their lack of technical understanding struggle to assess which files are relevant and which aren’t.

Yeah. This is going to be noticed in Tech blogs and news sites, but it wont make it to the mainstream news. Even if some mainstream newspaper might notice it and want to write a small article about it, they most likely will repeat the corporate response about some evil hacker messing with their product.

The problem is that it can still work in Germany to just pile the defendant under too many files to process with his ressources. This is not the case in stuff that courts understand, like say a traffic accident. But for anything technical/IT/IP related German courts are terribly incompetent and unable to create a fair case.

Especially regarding IP related things like streaming or torrenting movies, there is a myriad of ridiculous court decisions. The default unfortunately seems to be to just assume the corporation to be in the right, because it is a corporation and surely they must own the IP and lose a lot of money from the evil hackers.

you have the same problem with downloads though. In the end any download rate exceeding your disc write speed doesnt get you there faster.

ofc. you can write as you download, which makes things faster.

example:

i = 5.0//2

list[i]

throws an error because i is double and the list-index expects an integer.

so for it to work the code needs to look like this:

i = int(5.0//2)

list[i]

meanwhile this works:

i=5

i= ‘abcde’

i’d argue that chat gpt is mostly great at taking human bullshit tasks from humans, who dontwant to dothe bullshit, like regurgitating the text from a textbook in different words, writing cover letters for job applications, that are often machine analyzed for buzzwords anyways.

So its use case only exist in the domain of bullshit tasks that only exist to occupy two people without any added value.

did we really regress back from that?

i mean giving a confidence for recognizing a certain object in a picture is relatively straightforward.

But LLMs put together words by their likeliness of belonging together under your input (terribly oversimplified).the confidence behind that has no direct relation to how likely the statements made are true. I remember an example where someone made chatgpt say that 2+2 equals 5 because his wife said so. So chatgpt was confident that something is right when the wife says it, simply because it thinks these words to belong together.

I think we need to keep in mind that a programming language isn’t learned in a day whereas the use of most tools can be learnt within minutes, albeit not perfected of course.

The hurdle to learn a new language is higher and also there is only so many langauges you can be fluent in at the same time, until you start mixing stuff up and causing more problems for yourself than being proficient in just a few languages.

The DOJ should not work to enforce the laws of the country? What role should the department of justice have then?

then what heinous agenda do you think the DOJ to follow here?

I trust the DOJ to be able to distinguish between a 2 inch pipe and more deliberate devices.

A 100 years ago you got your morning paper that can give you a set of tainted views, because you had no chance to independently check, what is going on on the other side of the world. Now you got Fox news and others shoving down the propaganda narrative with a different set of “experts” 24/7.

Urrespective of all the other BS, why was the CEO also president of the board?

The role of the board is to supervise the executives.

Corporatism like this is fairly new. Creating bullshit positions for your followers is an old tradition among kings and other rulers, but putting people from one leadership position where they fucked up into the next is only here since the capitalist class established itself after the industrial revolution.
