And to anyone who has ever used it, it appears more like opening smoothbrain.
For a long time it was the only allowed model at work and even for basic cyber security questions it was sometimes completely useless.
Except since getting my degree no one but my ego has ever cared for the grades i received (which weren't good btw). This is my European perspective. I don’t know how it is in the US.
Ya this is mostly true, grades rarely matter after you graduate. But you must maintain a "passing grade" and matters if you are pursing grad school or certain majors, and sometimes matter right after graduation or for internships.
While the results are not unexpected i think the conclusion is questionable. Of course the recall for something you did not write will be lower, but to conclude from it, that this will impeded overall learning is in my opinion far fetched.
I think what we are seeing is that learning and education has not adapted to these new tools yet. Producing a string of words that counts as an essay has become easier.
If this frees up a students time to do more sports or work on their science project that's a huge net positive even if for the essay it is net negative. The essay does not exist in a school vacuum.
The thing students might not understand is: their reduced recall will make them worse at the exam ... Well they will hopefully draw their own conclusion after first their failed exam.
I think the quantitative study is important but I think this qualitative interpretation is missing the point. Recall->Learning is a pretty terrible way to define learning. Reproducing is the lowest step on the ladder to mastery
Google intentionally dumbed down the chrome user agent to limit user fingerprint and encourage usage of their new method that all privacy advances see to despise.
The user agent now reported by most chrome installs on Android reports android 10,K
I have the pleasure of not getting useful info anymore at work when comparing user agents across devices.
I have had a similar experience after i shared my MacBook with my girlfriend for a while. Turned out even after uninstalling her cloud file sharing software thing, there were still over 100GB of cached files left on disk. MacOS didn't make the obvious identify or find in the storage overview.
I ended up finding it through a disk space visualizer that showed a large folder (the stolen 100GB) in some cache directory.
I can highly recommend trying that out. MacOS' inbuilt tools are in my experience inadequate to find what is stealing your disk space (on top of applications being unable to clean up after themselves).
This is reads as if that is negative an unusual. One might think supporting copycats is bad but obviously a company cannot simply be copied and is more than just its product. While a product might be, you can still outclass your competitors with better engineering, or sourcing of materials or marketing.
You wonder if this is a telling story about YC or just one about the startup space in general.
Possible outcomes include:
1. There is little unique ideas going around. YC is truely and knowingly funding blatant copycats.
2. There is little unique ideas going around. Due to the large amount of duplicates, all accelerators invariably invest in mostly copycats.
3. There is unique ideas going around, they are just not popular with YC. This could have various reasons. I wonder what they might be
> Dahl said Oracle’s ownership “has caused confusion and unnecessary barriers, including cease-and-desist letters sent to organizations for simply using the term ‘JavaScript’ in their names.” The USPTO filing marks a pivotal step toward freeing the JavaScript name from legal entanglements, Dahl said.
I think acting 'as if' is the safe option here but encouraging change for the better in someone willing to engage in dialog is still better than not doing it.
Maybe you didn't intend to make a counterpoint, i just wanted to point that out.
I would not recommend it to anyone.
