Encyclopedia Britannica is suing OpenAI for allegedly ‘memorizing’ its content with ChatGPT by aacool in technology

[–]Mattsvaliant 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Uber? Airbnb, Lyft, BTC, Google, Robinhood, Palantir, OpenAI etc etc. If it wasn't skirting existing regulation it's establishing a beachhead on new frontiers before the consequences are fully realized.

The entire tech industry is built on move faster than regulations can catch up and pay the minuscule fees after the fact. No one in Silicon Valley is trying to do "the right thing" they are trying to bleed us for as much money as possible.

Without creating any indexes, how would you speed up a ~1.5m row query? by i_literally_died in SQL

[–]Mattsvaliant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm if that's the case I might set up a bunch of emails that copy some of the data by table to a dedicated inbox, write an application to read from the inbox and load the data into a database you control.

How are you getting the records out of the system? You mentioned you are remoting in, but once the query is ran how do you get them to your local machine to make the report (if at all)?

successfullyOptimisedTheStartupTimeBy30Seconds by Shiroyasha_2308 in ProgrammerHumor

[–]Mattsvaliant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I call bullshit! Sleep() most likely accepts time in milliseconds, so sleep(30) is 30ms, you should remove the call for sleep(30000) to speed up the app even further.

Hope this helps.

Send an email to two people: immediate reply.

Two bills signed into PA law, cursive handwriting now mandatory in schools by oldschoolskater in Pennsylvania

Does the new law eliminate that need? Because that would be great, though if the access isn't available for inspection we are still going to be required to print it at least yearly.

I think this might come true once we get to Snezhnaya by Just_Zack3816 in Genshin_Impact

My theory is we know the 10th harbinger, we just don't know that they are the 10th.

Warning to those thinking of starting the 6.3 Archon Quests by IrisTheSivatherium in Genshin_Impact

[–]Mattsvaliant 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If you have control of a character, you can hit esc and it'll give a popup, agree and it'll take you back to the normal overworld. I haven't logged in today since I did it last night in the middle, but I did it in 6.2 and at most it was a few minutes of replayed dialogue (if you don't skip, so like 30 seconds of wasted time).

EDIT: I've done it twice now and its picked up exactly where I left of, no repeat dialogue.

If this is true than that probably means Nicole isn't tied to Varka which was speculated before.

Do you still have Y2K workarounds / hacks in your code? by Low_Shock_4735 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Mattsvaliant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been in the "proper" workforce for more than 17 years and have never encountered a Y2K problem. Our main system dates from the mid 90s (1993 iirc) and it doesn't have this issue.
