Honestly Claude would probably do a better job …

There is no point to this.

It’s a pin, why would you store it at all? Why would you put a password on your password and store it?

edit: Just got those who don’t do software development it’s considered generally bad practice to store the plain text of a password (encrypted or not).

The correct approach is to run the password through a one way hash algorithm and store the result. The hash algorithm always produces the same result for any given password but it is very difficult to do the reverse and figure out what password was used to generate what result.

So you store the result on your side and when the user submits a password you run it through the same one way hash algo and compare the result with the one you have on file. If they match the password is correct.

Any developer who has ever made baby’s first Login should know this stuff it’s very basic web development.

If you ever tried to use Bluetooth in Linux you would be entirely unsurprised.

The Linux Bluetooth stack is super hanky.

Were they correctly punished the last time? No? Then it’s business as usual.

That’s actually not quite true.

Part of the reason Amazon is so desperate to automate those facilities (aside from the obvious of course) is because in some locals they have actually churned through the entire labor pool and are running out of people.

The thing is that a lot of first and second year physics has not really changed in a while (understatement I know) .

You would hope there would be more open text books and Duolingo for physics.

I don’t know where you live but round here if you want to raise chickens you gotta first buy some chicken quota (I am serious).

So you are in the hole before a bird lays its first egg.

They are? When did that happen? For the last 15 years it’s been 23 year old ‘senior devs’

Farming is only fun if you already have enough money that you don’t actually have to farm if you didn’t want to.

Otherwise it’s hard work for low pay that is very hard to buy yourself into if you weren’t born with some land.

Turns out it helps to at least have a coalition of the doesn’t give a shit before you start a war you can’t win 7000 miles away.

Imagine for a second that you were rewarded for spouting insane bullshit.

Why she does it isn’t the question. The question is why does it work. The people who read this are definitely eating paint chips.

America took parts of it and camped out in the cities for 20 years. The rest of it ebbed and flowed depending on the date.

Pretty sure at this point we know what it means.

I did see posts of someone doing it with Harry Potter but I think it took a little more effort

It is and it isn’t. Those lawsuits mean they at least try to stop it from producing copyrighted work. They won’t make Simpsons characters or produce anything from the house of mouse without major cajoling or some trickery in the prompt.

For the text from Frankenstein they are not even going to try.

Incidentally after writing this content I tried to get chatgpt to reproduce the first paragraph of chapter 3. It refused and offered a summary. I “reminded” it that the book is in the public domain and then it reproduced it without issue.

Frankenstein is out of copyright.

I would be unsurprised if you couldn’t tease out the entire book. I wonder if Mary Shelly was a fan of dashes.

The inference part of these products is comparability cheap. The training has been the expensive part generally which is what drives the cost.

Microsoft missed the mobile boat by a long shot.

Windows is ever shrinking as people don’t buy computers like they used to since phones can do what they need.

This means that for Microsoft growing Windows user base is a non starter. They are well into the extract portion of the product lifecycle. The os now only exists to support the products that still make money are extract what can be extracted from a shrinking user base.

Yeah, if you break your back to get it sorted they just assume they allocated enough resources and will do it again.

It’s super hard to let things fail sometimes but in some organizations it’s the only actual signal they can respond to.

Every child care center and baby sitter near me eventually had one or two of these.

I’m not sure I ever encountered one with the actual figures though. You were lucky if the canon ball was still with it.
