Thanks! Don’t know how I missed the Authentik docs for this.

How did you set up Jellyfin with Authentik? Are you using SSO or is it only through LDAP?

That’s when you get into more of the nuance with tokenization. It’s not a simple lookup table, and the AI does not have access to the original definitions of the tokens. Also, tokens do not map 1:1 onto words, and a word might be broken into several tokens. For example “There’s” might be broken into “There” + “'s”, and “strawberry” might be broken into “straw” + “berry”.

The reason we often simplify it as token = words is that it is the case for most of the common words.

Each word gets converted to a number before it is processed, so asking how many “how many r are there in strawberry” could be converted to “how many 7 are there in 13”, for example.

(Very simplified)

I think it does make sense, it’s a “did this loop exit naturally? If so, do x”. This makes a lot of sense if you, for example, have a loop that checks a condition and breaks if that condition is met, e.g. finding the next item in a list. This allows for the else statement to set some default value to indicate that no match was found.

Imo, the feature can be very useful under certain circumstances, but the syntax is very confusing, and thus it’s almost never a good idea to actually use it in code, since it decreases readability a lot for people not intimately familiar with the language.

Edit: Now, this is just guessing, but what I assume happens under the hood is that the else statement is executed when the StopIteration exception is recieved, which happens when next() is called on an exhausted iterator (either empty or fully consumed)

Your point about it not running when there is nothing to iterate over is incorrect. The else-statement runs when the iterator is exhausted; if the iterator empty, it is exhausted immediately and the else-statement is executed.

Which makes it easier to keep up the momentum

You are ignoring ALL of the of the positive applications of AI from several decades of development, and only focusing on the negative aspects of generative AI.

Here is a non-exhaustive list of some applications:

• In healthcare as a tool for earlier detection and prevention of certain diseases
• For anomaly detection in intrusion detection system, protecting web servers
• Disaster relief for identifying the affected areas and aiding in planning the rescue effort
• Fall detection in e.g. phones and smartwatches that can alert medical services, especially useful for the elderly.
• Various forecasting applications that can help plan e.g. production to reduce waste. Etc…

There have even been a lot of good applications of generative AI, e.g. in production, especially for construction, where a generative AI can the functionally same product but with less material, while still maintaining the strength. This reduces cost of manufacturing, and also the environmental impact due to the reduced material usage.

Does AI have its problems? Sure. Is generative AI being misused and abused? Definitely. But just because some applications are useless it doesn’t mean that the whole field is.

A hammer can be used to murder someone, that does not mean that all hammers are murder weapons.

I disagree, and would argue that both are about equally frequent. For example, my phone shows °C in the weather widget, while the weather app only uses °. That does not change the fact that the actual unit is °C, and that would not change even if the whole world switched away from °F, and your original comment about the display having °C implying that °F still exists is therefore incorrect.

No, even if you only had one unit for a physical quantity, you would still need to specify that unit to know which physical quantity you are describing. E.g. “That object over there is 15” vs “That object over there is 15 kg”.

The symbol for temperature, measured in Celsius, is “°C”. It’s atomic and can’t be separated, since that would result in °, which represents the angle of something, not the temperature, and C, which is the symbol for Coulomb, which measures electric charge.

If it’s like the system in Sweden, it’s actually ~$400 straight up benefit, and ~$800 in a very favourable (optional) loan with very low interest that is paid back over 25 years.

The source paper is available online, is published in a peer reviewed journal, and has over 600 citations. I’m inclined to believe it.

That’s why these systems should never be used as the sole decision makers, but instead work as a tool to help the professionals make better decisions.

Keep the human in the loop!

As long as it’s maintained. Wrong documentation can often be worse than no documentation.

Comment should describe “why?”, not “how?”, or “what?”, and only when the “why?” is not intuitive.

The problem with comments arise when you update the code but not the comments. This leads to incorrect comments, which might do more harm than no comments at all.

E.g. Good comment: “This workaround is due to a bug in xyz”

Bad comment: “Set variable x to value y”

Note: this only concerns code comments, docstrings are still a good idea, as long as they are maintained

Except for the final paragraph, it is very non-political, and easily verifiable to be true.

I want to be clear that I do not condone or support using these types of sources, since it funds non-democratic governments, but simply dismissing all of their stories as “fake news” without any further critical thinking or fact checking is not correct.

1. In what way is it not covered, according to you?

2. If the news story is, e.g., non-political, does not try to influence your opinion on something, and is based on first-party facts that can be independently verified and that are correctly represented, the source does not matter for the factuality of the news story, even if it is from a non-democratic source.

That’s covered under “Consider the source.”

The source having ties to a non-democratic government does not automatically invalidate the source, but it should make you scrutinize it more sceptically in relation to the other criteria.

It literally says “and” on the second to last row
