  • That's not what you claimed in your original comment. You said

    "I think whoever wrote that has different criteria between intelligence and AI when it comes to understanding"

    The paper I posted is literally applying the same criteria to humans and LLMs.

    It seems like you are the one applying different criteria?

  • The bigger Linux distros have all "just worked" for the better part of two decades

  • Which computer-related belief do you hold without any foundation?

    Jump

  • This is not wholly without a true foundation. Capacities can store charge for some time and e.g. keep data in ram (I think this is only true of older types of memory now though?)

  • Did you actually read their example tests? Are you saying that you can have a valid and useful definition of intelligence that includes those kind of mistakes?

  • One of my uni lecturer friends set a task that required students to ask GenAI to produce an essay, and then the actual task was to critique the essay (in class, I think).

  • Linux is Getting a New Default Folder in Your Home Directory

    Jump

  • Right, for me "documents" is just "personal files". I used to have it called that, but then I just had and empty dir sitting there unused..

    I don't like putting things in home because then files get mixed up with config and cache and crap, and it's more annoying to search

  • Linux is Getting a New Default Folder in Your Home Directory

    Jump

  • This is the way. Everything I created in folder in Documents. Everything I downloaded in downloads. Home should be otherwise empty, except for all the left-over dot-folders that old software leaves lying around.

  • Linux is Getting a New Default Folder in Your Home Directory

    Jump

  • Absolutely. Some under a work subfolder, some under various other sub-folder depending on what they contain.

  • What do you put in it? For me the logical place for that would be ~/Documents/projects

  • Gordon Ramsay one of the first celebrity chefs to bring US-style 20 % service charge

    Jump

  • It's not hidden, it's written on the menu.

    Jump

  • The surcharge is written on the menu.. Printing two menus is wasteful and annoying.

    Lots of places add a 10-15% surcharge on holidays here (Australia). As long as they are up-front about it, it's not that hard to do the math in your head..

    I have 3 close friends who are doctors, I have zero doubt they would jump to help in an emergency (I've seen them all do it at various times, though not on planes).

  • Most of the proteins within the cell would denature over (a fairly short) time, which means all the cell functions would fail. The cell membranes would also rupture and dissolve or rot eventually. Only the hard keratin exoskeleton would remain reasonably intact.
