The best method I’ve found for using it is to help you with languages you may have lost familiarity in and to walk it through what you need step by step. This lets you evaluate it’s reasoning. When it gets stuck in a loop:

Try A!
Actually A doesn’t work because that method doesn’t exist.
Oh sorry Try B!
Yeah B doesn’t work either.
You’re right, so sorry about that, Try A!
Yeah… we just did this.

at that point it’s time to just close it down and try another AI.

A quick look of CBCs archive for ‘tenant’ shows at least 4 tenant positive stories in the last month. This article sounds like nonsense.

Half the time in these stories it comes out the parents/relatives/friends happen to actually be experts in the field and work at some high level place where the teens in question just happened to have access to cutting edge resources and ‘guidance’.

There had been one other documented proof of the theorem using trigonometry by mathematician Jason Zimba in 2009

No it doesn’t.

Yeah, they claim it’s because of ‘local distributors’ to that region not giving them the subtitles, but I know, for example, that Korean movies are 99.5% always released on DVD, even in Korea with English subtitles. Yet in Korea, half the Korean content wouldn’t have English subtitles, yet in other markets it did. Ironic that my spouse and I find it easier to consume Korean content outside of Korea than inside Korea.

You see this on youtube as well. Inside Korea a lot of movies are available through youtube with Korean subtitles embedded on them. They’re cheap too, Often you can get new movies for under $5 (purchased, not rented), older ones can often be around $1. Same movie in another country, no subtitle, or certainly not Korean subtitles. Youtube has native subtitle support and they don’t use it. At least we can VPN into Korean youtube and purchase things.

Amazon is bad for it. If you go into a show and look at the subtitles some of them are clickable. Meaning it searches by that subtitle language to show you more content that has that language as a subtitle. Problem is their subtitles are regional and they don’t filter based on region. So when you search for Korean you might get 100 results with less than 30% actually having Korean subtitles. But they return the result because they have Korean subtitles in another region. My guess is in the US or Japan as Korea does not have it’s own Amazon region since they don’t operate there.

Disney plays its own games. Extraordinary season 2 is missing most of the Asian subtitles that were available for season 1. So we can’t pick that up even though we enjoyed season 1.

Being a multicultural family and trying to consume content legitimately is exhausting to be honest.

The worst part is when they geo-block accessibility. Netflix likes to make subtitles regional. In their mind no one ever moves to another part of the world to a country where they aren’t 100% fluent in the language. Doesn’t happen. I’m assuming their execs don’t hire any staff in their mansions that aren’t completely bilingual. You compare this to something like Disney and Apple who have a subtitle list a mile long on every show, Netflix will just heavily region restrict and even restrict subtitle availability by profile language. Lived in Korea, on my english profile Korean subtitles were available. A month after moving to an English speaking country, Korean subtitles disappeared from my profile (on the android TV app, they’re still there in Desktop view, sometimes). A korean profile on the same android TV app? Korean is a choice. Their android TV app just cuts off several subtitle options for no reason.

if there is one thing I love, it’s corporations trying to ‘meme’. Nothing makes me unfollow or block an account faster.

I found some size 23 shoes for sale locally. $600/pair. Absolutely no one but his own fault if he can’t afford those when he’s 22 especially in today’s booming economy.

with my eyes closed, I think it was airing during the night here, and even if it didn’t, I wouldn’t.

Unfortunately any automated translation I’ve seen on various websites is garbage to the target language. I wish it wasn’t. But we’re a long way off from good translation on certain languages.

Unfortunately the only reason we have streaming services is because of the ease of built-in subtitles that are a pain in the ass to otherwise get (not English).

I lived in a country where spotify wasn’t available, so I never stopped. Now that I’m in a country where it is available, I just don’t want to spend the cash on it, since all these streaming services have me over a barrel.

It is tested. In court. https://curia.europa.eu/jcms/upload/docs/application/pdf/2012-07/cp120094en.pdf

Being a programmer is a lot like being a tradesperson. A tradesperson has a lot of flexibility in what they can do. They can work for a company, work freelance, or start their own business.

Programming gives you the same flexibility, the most important bit being that you can do it for yourself.

AI is going to struggle with larger complex tasks for a long time coming. While you can go to it and say ‘write me a script to convert a png to a jpg’ you can’t go to it and say ‘Write me a suite of tools to support business X’ or ‘make me a fun and creative game’ A good programmer isn’t going to be out of work for a long time.

The only reason I could see them region locking is because they must sell them cheaper in one region vs another. But it’s unlikely that they’d sell them cheap enough that people couple buy them, then ship them for any significant savings (or any savings) at all over their locally available ones.

I already contacted HP about resetting the region, that isn’t an issue. I’ve also used third party cartridges in the past with it, I just wasn’t sure if those were still region locked or not, as I know the third party places there actually had an exchange program where they took back your old cartridge (you got a discount) and I assume they reused it by refilling it somehow.

It wasn’t an HP printer when I bought it, it was samsung, and it’s a very good printer.

I have the colour laser jet as I’m printing things that will be kept around like print and play games, or standees for skirmish/rpg games. I may give it a go on one colour though and see. I just wasn’t sure if the official and region locking part of these cartridges was in the same bit or if it was something that might have to be bypassed separately. But if you’re getting cartridges from aliexpress then it’s probably fine.

The printer is a samsung originally, HP owns their overseas business, and they have an identical model here just branded with HP. it’s a really good printer. It’s the Samsung version of the HP Color Laser 178nw.
