If you had to do this for every falsity in the LLM, there wouldn’t be an end to it.

I agree, but I still suspect OpenAI and other LLM companies do stuff like that, when an example of a hallucination becomes popular.

If I see some example of an LLM saying dumb stuff here, I know it's going to be fixed quickly. If I encounter an example myself and refuse to share it, it may be fixed with a model upgrade in a few years. Or it may still exist.

We still print photo albums. I can strongly recommend this!

I bought a Canon SELPHY photo printer on a Black Friday sale last year. It prints archive quality photos we can put in an album to save forever.

It's kind of fun to go through the thousands of photos in our digital photo libraries and pick the best and most impactful ones to print and save "forever".

For higher arity there is a combinatorial explosion of all the possible permutations.

But if you want to flip the 2nd and 3rd argument in Haskell it can be done by flip itself:

flip23 foo = (\x -> flip (foo x))

Or just (flip .), which also allows ((flip .) .) etc. for further flips.

In Smullyan's "To Mock a Mockingbird", these combinators are described as "cardinal combinator once/twice/etc. removed", where the cardinal combinator itself defines flip.

I was hoping someone would provide something more succinct ;-). Thanks!

That is just silly notation used by a minority in this world ;-)

Perhaps, but if you set your browser language to US English you have dates displayed as MM.DD.YYYY and there's no way to change it neither to European nor ISO (YYYY-MM-DD) format.

Wouldn’t it be better to invest in a human-friendly format first (which also could be AI-friendly).

If you can convince your bank to make available your bank statement in Markdown, let us know.

Your transactions are probably already available in CSV.

Not really sure what you mean by a "human-friendly" file format, can you elaborate? File formats are inherently not friendly to humans, they are a bag of bytes. But that doesn't mean they can't be better consumed by tools which is what I mean by "AI friendly".

But not the other way around!

I don't understand what you appear to view as obvious. Can you explain?

All you need is a way to resolve conflicts and you can serialize any distributed set of actions to a log.

All you need is a time machine and then you can prevent the holocaust. All you need is a philosopher's stone and then immortality is within your grasp. All you need is an infinite source of energy and then the finiteness of the universe need not concern you. All you need is a magic genie granting infinite wishes and you can end world hunger.

If all you need to solve a problem is something impossible, then you haven't solved it.

A big difference is that it must include the thing the functions act upon (self). In functional programming you often leave that out. In FP you can also refactor little pieces of the chain into its own separate name (eg: smallest = sort >> head). This avoids long chains.

Interesting. In which functional programming languages (that you know), can this be done? That refactoring little pieces, I mean. Looks like it would help with code readability.

That’s a reason I moved away from Notion. The startup is so terribly slow (perhaps because it’s updating too often?).

Quite useless?! I still use my iPhone SE (1 gen) from 8 years ago. It’s working perfectly fine for my daily business. Sure, some newer apps I cannot install, but so far I’m not missing anything important. Banking apps work, navigations works, obviously the browser still works, etc

I have the same phone but to be fair some websites stopped working (GitHub is among them) and some of my banking apps stopped getting updates as well.

No huge deal breakers _personally_ as I don’t need banking on my phone anyway (I have an iPad at home, and also checked that the banks offer authentication devices like TAN generators if I really need to get out of the iOS/Android ecosystem).

Apple Pay still works fine.

I hope that small phone has a long life ahead of it still :)

Same here. I've noticed that the minimum iOS version for a lot of apps is currently 15 so I'm expecting this to increase to 16 and make my phone redundant, but until then I'll run this phone into the ground!

Still it would be nice if the author used the right format for the job.
