You mean...
Python already has this.
I don't understand the motivation to spoil your vote. First past the post is the shittiest voting system but the rational response is to vote tactically instead, perhaps reduce the majority of your disliked incumbent. Even if you can't overturn a majority, MPs on smaller majorities may be less arrogant, and less likely to vote for unpopular policies. But sometimes you do overturn a majority. It will happen lots in this/next year's election.
I don't think any politician gives a shit about the numbers of spoiled ballots, they literally don't look even once at those numbers.
I like Tom Scott, I think his videos are interesting and well produced. But I'm glad for the break, I think I've reached saturation on Tom Scott content and am starting to find Tom Scott's Tom Scott mannerisms and speech patterns to be a bit too gratingly Tom Scott. The earnest Tom Scott monologues, Tom Scott's Tom Scott laugh while experiencing something Tom Scott about 3/4 predicted, the Tom Scott pause before delivering that last Tom Scott factoid.
Anyway, I hope he has a nice break and comes back some day soon.
I doubt they are using Johansson's voice. I expect they need much more studio-quality training data than they would have for her.
The desire to create a "Her" might be real but explains why they chose a similar voice actress, made Sky the default, and continued to pursue Johansson to some day create the real thing.
Suspending the Sky voice looks guilty but it might be a temporary action while the legal team considers their response. There might be a non-zero risk of being found liable if there were directions in the voice casting process to seek a result comparable to Scarlet Johansson. You'd want to collect and assess correspondence to see if that's a possibility, which might take a while.
Unless that person happens to be with their dad, that would then require finding their dad. That's a whole extra person to find. It might be easier to skip straight to finding their dad.
I have always been very confused about whether the tip line on the receipt in the US works with my British cards given that I enter a PIN into a terminal that doesn't show that tip amount.
As of last year I'm pretty sure the tip is deducted from my card, but I don't think that has always been the case. I understand it works based on PIN-authenticated pre-authorisation for a higher amount and they later take your tip+bill from that pre-authorisation.
It doesn't seem very secure but the US always seems behind on card security.
When I first started travelling to the US for work restaurant staff were always extremely confused about why my card needed a PIN. They often tried again and again or said my card wouldn't go through, then worked out that it needed a PIN. Lots of places then had no way to hand you the terminal to enter it, like they would have to push aside mountains of junk to get the terminal out, or invite me round to the other side of the bar because it's literally screwed down.
The price difference is quickly made up for with the re-usability factor.
I don't think that's true, CD-Rs cost pennies. You have to rewrite every CD-RW 4 or 5 times before it's comparable in price. In practice, across every CD-RW ever made, the approximate number of times it is written is probably about 0.5
I've used it, but only when I'm on some really sketchy unencrypted WiFi network, like in an airport or a hotel.
It doesn't offer location spoofing like all other VPNs on the market, which I would have more use for.
Yeah, decorate it just with a tremendous amount of dark red paint, spattered away from the fan, heaviest in the fan corner
Yeah, I shell out for the premium electricity, the 99% electrons. The 95% stuff is fine but I have a lot of expensive devices; I want them to run as fast as possible.
I don't deny that this kind of thing is useful for understanding the capabilities and limitations of LLMs but I don't agree that "the best match of a next phrase given his question, and not because it can actually consider the situation." is an accurate description of an LLM's capabilities.
While they are dumb and unworldly they can consider the situation: they evaluate a learned model of concepts in the world to decide if the first word of the correct answer is more likely to be yes or no. They can solve unseen problems that require this kind of cognition.
But they are only book-learned and so they are kind of stupid about common sense things like frying pans and ovens.

Yeah but it sounds less cool if you say thirteen point three millilitres than to say Four (4) TRIOSβ’!!!
No, those are both trademarks, you're associating π with your tech business (to the extent that Elon Tracker is a tech business).
But if you start a plumbing business you can call it π, because trademarks are industry-specific.
You might be able to get away with starting a business called XYZ and putting π symbols all over your website as long as it obviously isn't your logo.
Or you can publish images of people doing unspeakable things with the π logo. As long as you are not claiming to be π, you can use the π glyph however you like.
This is not true of the bird logo. You aren't by default allowed to reproduce it, so the company can allow you to, with extra conditions of their choosing. They can make you take down images of people doing unspeakable things with the bird logo, on the basis that it contravenes their terms and therefore is not covered by the license.
Wait, what do Americans use? Only Signal and Telegram?
That's not true, it absolutely can be a trademark. You might be thinking of copyright - he can't copyright the current π logo.
The rights you'd get from each protection are different and a sensible business probably would want both. Trademark protection would prevent another tech company trading as π; copyright protection for the logo would let you set terms on how it is used.
