   I am pretty sure CNN is also doing this, using some content from real people, then having the AI write the article. Check out their bylines and who "contributed" when you real an article.

   Yep. I'll never need or use this implementation, but the tricks used will make it to other tools, which will be great.

   I appreciate the attempt to create objective evaluations by leveraging existing tools. It isn't a perfect experiment or article, but I like the goal.

   The problem I have with Reddit is every subreddit seems filled with amateurs posting the same starter questions daily, never looking at the feed to see these questions have been asked and answered daily.

   The last episode of the last season of "Always Sunny in Philadelphia" is about this.

   "What happened to the days when a THING was a THING?!"

   At a music festival last summer I counted 4 drones in the sky monitoring 24/7 over 5 days. Never saw them come down. They were each tethered to a base station which seemed to run electric and probably returned a video feed.

   I expect to see this everywhere.

   Use FDIC's Electronic Deposit Insurance Estimator (EDIE) tool to find your coverage and figure out how to maximize it:

    There are some big parts to this story we don't know.

    Yes, they sold the treasuries and took a bath. But if that was their best option, it speaks very poorly to the other "assets" they held on their balance sheet.

    We may find out in the coming days that they had a big position in Silvergate, which went bankrupt yesterday, and they had to mark their position to zero, creating the need for liquidity.

    It would be nice if the AI was used to build libraries for targeted purposes. That would actually be pretty handy.

    And then it would also be handy for it to design a programming language for both readability and writability that leveraged those libraries.

    Pages filled with crappy generated AI are what I get every time I have searched for anything recently.

    Which leads people to post what would be their google search to Reddit, after finding any group related to the topic.

    Which is leading to Reddit forums being filled with the same beginner questions over and over and over and over...

    ... from people who don't even bother to join the group.

    Actually this is not correct either.

    A married couple each have 250k coverage for their personal accounts, and each have 250k for shared account(s), so they could in theory have 1M coverage at a single institution.

    Other qualified relationships work similarly.

    I always said it was an argument between the counting of things versus the relative offset of things.

    This is a great example.

    To add to that, often EDITORS are the ones who come up with the titles, for reasons beyond being clear, like using words that draw attention and to fit in a specific space.

    I thought this project was pretty impressive. I feel like this is a thing that is going to come back around once costs come down and a killer app is found for it.

    I have used this several times, and I have to say I really like the lightweight setup of the V1 version of this and can't stand the V2 version they now support.

    The V1, which you can still download, just works so well out of the box it is amazing. It adds styles to the base tags and is easy to just drop into an html site you are already working on. You only have to add classes when you need to do something different than the defaults.

    V2 makes you add classes everywhere, which means content managed by HTML editors like CKedit won't work without extra pain.

    I'll admit being lost in some of the math here but I wonder perhaps naively, if a language like Julia, which does fractions as fractions, would handle it better.

    I agree in general that an open forum of ideas should be encouraged, but I have to make an exception for low-effort posts. They waste everyone's time.

    Yes, I was happy to see the modern changes, I agree Cornell Law had done a better job, although I think a lot of people use Google as the search tool and then link to their prefered site, since they are always the first two.

    My experience has been with 14 CFR and 21 CFR. I would love to see any tool you come up with in the future and would be happy to give you feedback.

25. bluetwo Mar 16, 2022 parent

    I have worked with eCFR and have thought about some ideas for processing large sections and how it might be useful.

    What are your larger plans here? Do you have an interface in mind for searching or organizing things?

    If it makes you feel better, SPAs were a mistake when they were all the craze in Flash. Also way before that in Director.

    In those two cases, they signified (or accelerated) the end of the useful lifespan of those languages.

    SPAs, like frameworks, always make some things easier and some things harder. As long as you stay within the lines of what is easy, you are good. As soon as you stray outside those lines, you get punished.

    Yes, a giant cooling system dug underneath the reactor after the accident takes water from a nearby river and pumps it out to a cooling pond where it evaporates. This keeps the concrete from melting and the core contained.
