just use the better libre office. you dont need to pay a price of admission at all. so silly. "i take pot hole ridden toll roads instead of the tax paid ones, because that's just the price of admission yaknow." ???
i am confident that everyone in this discussion understands technically what is happening. the contention is, for reasons i cannot comprehend, that apparently "connects to and cannot function without the internet" is somehow the same as "offline".
Yes, i point out whackamole in my comment. It's a completely useless critique of tor/briar because there is no alternative which cannot also be critiqued like this, and there can never be.
you might as well say "well the problem with keyboards is that someone needs to ship it to you."
oh sure, but you can get around these blocks and this sort of block is ultimately always a possibility short of building your own network infrastructure. and as blocks like that become more common it becomes more common to circumvent them too.
"significantly harder than youve been lead to believe", no, you just werent clear in your description of the problem. if your problem with tor is "governments can play whack-a-mole blocking ips and traffic" there is no technology which doesnt have that as a downside.
politics complaint aside, your observation about people using this to complain about a neopronoun seems apt. none of the content of complaints about drag's use of neopronouns actually seem relevant to drag's use of neopronouns. someone trolling with neopronouns is trivially handled by just accepting the neopronouns…
music has things that can be described mathematically in ways that are largely historical, but not axiomatic in a math sense. but if learning music helps you learn math and/or visa versa, power to you.
it might be a difference of language but it's important to recognize that courts are part of your system of governance regardless of the words you use to describe it, and are subject to most of the same incentives and corrupting influences, and some thatare unique to courts.
it is certainly spurred by the developing situation in the us and has examples from it, but otherwise nothing applie only to the us. and the us finalizing it going to shit effects you anywhere in the world.
jailbreaks actually are relevant with the use of llm for anything with i/o, such as "automated administrative assistants". hide jailbreaks in a webpage and you have a lot of vectors for malware or social engineering, broadly hacking. as well as things like extracting controlled information.
the unit is just a report of orientation, not magnitude. if you have a digital counter you are limited by the precision of the digital counter, not the units chosen. an analog measurement however is limited instead by other uncertanties. precision has, genuinely, no direct relationship to units. precision is a statistical concept, not a dimensional one.
an arms race for what? more efficient slop? most of their value comes from the expected exclusivity - that say openai is the only one who can run something like o1. deepseek has made that collapse. i doubt they will stop doing stuff, but i dont think you understand the nature of the situation here.
also lol, "performs well in synthetic tests it was optimized to score well in" yes that literally describes every llm. Make no mistake: none of this has a real use case. not deepseek's model, not openai's, not apples, etc. this is all nonsense, literally. the stock market lost 2 trillion dollars overnight because something that doesnt have a use case was one upped by something else that also doesnt have a use case. it's very funny.
significance refers to a measurement certainty about a number itself, especially its precision! and is unrelated to the magnitude/scale. the number and dimension "2.5634 mm" has more significant digits than the number "5,000 mm", though the most significant digit is 2 and 5 respectively, and least significant 4 and 5 respectively. this is true if i rewrite it as 0.0025634 m and 5 m. it does work for doing what you say in this case because a date is equivalent to a single number, but is not correct in other situations. that's why i said it does work here.
largest to smallest increment is completely adequate, and describes the actual goal here well. most things are ambiguous if you try hard enough.
largest to smallest is correct. 1 mile is larger than 20 meters. if i had specified numerical value or somesuch, maybe you'd be correct. though significance works as well.
