OnlyConnect is a UK quiz show which is renowned for for it difficulty and need for lateral thinking.

It has four main rounds, the third of which is a 4x4 board of words on tiles that must be connected to four concepts. This may have been the inspiration for a certain NY Times game.

This site has gathered all the games from every series since 2008, and will let you play them interactively.


It's a problem when LLMs can control agents and autonomously take real word actios.


Sorry, what do you mean?



Irrelevant nonsense can also poison the context. That's part of the magic formula behind AI psychosis victims... if you have some line noise mumbojumbo all the output afterward is more prone to be disordered.

I'd be wary of using any canary material that wouldn't be at home in the sort of work you're doing.


What is you tell it to end output with certain character?


It is a distraction from its intended purpose


Does this mean that cooking at lower temperatures will lead to lower pressure and less moisture loss?


Yes. Kenji Lopez has done this experiment using sous vide cooking.

A benevolent dictator.


What you say is fair but if an individual's data doesn't matter, what happens when they ask to have their data deleted under GDPR. is there a way to demux their data from existing models?


GDPR isn't a magic spell. It's only relevant for personally-identifiable data: https://gdpr.eu/eu-gdpr-personal-data/


While your example isn't exactly coherent (I don't think GDPR would cover photos/videos taken by the user, unless maybe the user was in the photo/video?), presumably they could just train the model again without that user's data. I doubt the end result would be that much different


Would that not mean that Shazaam is illegal Germany? From my limited searching it doesn't seem like it is.


Well it's you a person who is recording the music. So it's the user's responsibility to make sure you are not breaking any laws. So the app cannot be held at fault for this. No one cares if you do a Shazam in public so it all just works out.

But if you set up an autonomous recording device, no matter what you say you are doing, you will have problems.


What law is that that's broken here?


Shazam is not illegal in Germany unless I missremember what the app does and instead of being to identify songs based on samples, it's being used to record people


That's what I have been trying to do with the B3ta site[0]. It is a UK humour site forum that was founded in the very early 2000s. I have been looking after it's backend for about five or so years, trying to modernise what I can and keep it stable and maintainable. I have learnt a lot of respect for people who create a site like Spacehey, it quickly spirals in to a job in itself.

b3ta is awesome. It's had a crucial, but mostly unknown, role in Internet culture for two decades.

Thank you for your service :)


Thanks, I only do it for the childish laughs! It crazy how it shaped so much yet only a very specific slice of people know it exists.


The post is saying that it is a people problem. The gist is that efficient or beautiful architecture does not mirror efficient or beautiful management.


> But if there’s a reliable & scalable way for vigorous, systematic management to reward the spontaneous human drive towards efficiency instead of punishing it, I am yet to see it.

This is the gist of the article, it has nothing to do with software architecture


If a service which provides metrics supports multiple tenants wouldn't those metrics at the very least need a label to indicate which tenant the metrics are for?


Why doesn’t it make dimensional sense to average across tenants?
