Pebble seems to be headed in a good direction ever since it got bought back by the original founder.


And also ask: do they gain anything from lying about it?
I work in AI research, so naturally, AI is part of our day to day work. But when it comes to things like LLMs tools and other generative models, we rarely hear anyone talk about those. Sometimes, people will share their workflow, and that may involve LLMs to supplement traditional search engines for literature reviews for example. That’s about the extent of it. No one really cares to talk about them much. No one pushed those tools on us. We just do our work with whatever tools we think are best.


So throw all caution out the window in the absence of evidence? What kind of logic is that?


Thanks. So it sounds like it probably has the same effect as other microplastics? Chemically inert, but can physically cause damage.
I believe the harms that are well known are the environmental impacts and that on people involved in its production. Weighing all of that together, I’ll maintain my policy that I’d never buy a non-stick, but if I happen to have one, I’m not going to toss it and create more waste than is necessary. I mainly keep mine around because other people (e.g. parents) like to use them sometimes when they visit.


Everyone else in the comments are saying Teflon is harmless to consume. Who do I believe?
Probably not someone that a consumer would want to do unless they’re interested in the challenge.
I forgot about the absence of PCIe connectors until jj4211 mentioned it in another comment. That would also be problematic for consumer use. I know it’s possible to do the conversion as I’ve looked into it in the past, but it doesn’t come cheap.


He punished published a book about the first segment of his journey, and there are people just throwing money at him because they want to see someone do this.
The datacentre GPUs are also useless for consumers. They don’t have video output.

Oh, so much. I’m still trying to figure out how to actually complete things.


Tolerance is tangential to humanization. You can be tolerant of a human. You can also be intolerant of a human.


but once I’m done, I close them all
Same. But I also have a continuous stream of new projects that never get finished.


Whenever I see the term “consciousness” in a paper, it automatically gets flagged in my head as non-serious. But I work in AI, so maybe that shouldn’t apply to whatever your field is. That brings me to the next problem: I can’t figure out what your field is supposed to be from this paper. It’s lacking the background and prior work sections that would serve to position your work into the greater context of existing work.


Do you use this for physical machines too?


Depends on how reliable you need this system to be. For example, do you need to handle the scenario where an adult verifies their age to access a website, then lets a minor use that website in their place? That would be a much harder problem to solve than if you just need to verify that an adult was present on the other end at one point in time. For the latter, device-based age verification seems to be trivial to set up from a technical standpoint while fulfilling that criterion.
I’ve been told the French is rather mediocre compared to the English.
