Haha, so you're suggesting that that the first century does not include the year 100, but the 1800s does include the year 1900? I understand getting one of them wrong, but both?

I'm calling C++ code from Rust, and I'm unsure how to decide whether methods on my Rust wrapper type (a struct wrapping a raw pointer to a C++ object) should require unique access with `&mut self`.

If the C++ function I'm calling modifies a field on the object I'm wrapping, does that immediately require using `&mut self` for my Rust method? Or is it not inherently wrong to use `&self` instead, and does it depend on what other functionality my wrapper type provides?

One possible danger I'm thinking of is that if my wrapper type also has a method (which it doesn't) that produces a shared reference to that same field on the C++ object, then the aforementioned method that mutates that field should obviously require exclusive access.

I think the point was that it's easier to misread the original comment as "return to Crimea" when you don't expect people to refer to Crimea as "the Crimea", rather than to dunk on someone for not using perfect English.

My guess is that OP was referring to other videos of which this is a parody, containing photos of people before and after telling them (e.g.) that they are beautiful

then Belgium has nothing to defend its skies

Belgium literally has NATO to defend their skies, unless you know of any NATO member that is keen on invading Belgium?

if only I had just waited 8 fucking hours I could control my gambling addiction.

FTFY

Checo advanced to Q3 the same number of times this season as Max getting pole (13).

• The gap on the 8th was me pulling an all-nighter because of an appointment

• On the 15th I fell asleep earlier because I took melatonin ahead of my parents visiting

Hmm, I'm just getting really inconsistent results. Often it clearly does not behave according to the text file I uploaded to its knowledge, it just ignores it. And then when I remind it of this file, it will start a "Searching my knowledge" or "Analyzing" animation which can take ages.

Do you find that your GPT is always clearly aware of the documents you fed it?

Edit: I just looked at the first custom GPT I created and I uploaded a new document, and the UI indicates that the new document is part of its knowledge, while the old document is only available through Code Interpreter. I have no idea if something changed or if I did something wrong, but this perfectly explains where my misunderstanding came from.

I'm referring to the 8000 character limit on the "Instructions" field on the configuration screen of the custom GPT. You can upload files independently from that, but as I said, my understanding is that those are simply files that the GPT can decide to access (with the little Analyzing animation) during the conversation, rather than that all that data is fed to the GPT ahead of the conversation.

Noob question: what does "draws on 2800+ pages" mean? My understanding was that you only get 8000 characters to set up the GPT, and that any documents you upload can be accessed by the GPT with Python code (just like when you upload a file during a conversation with Data Analysis), but that it doesn't otherwise affect how the GPT behaves. Am I wrong?

which takes a ton of work.

That's all I'm arguing, too. He just put in the work. People saying that they could never do this because they can't even solve one normally, come from a place of ignorance.

Almost nobody figures out how to solve a Rubik's cube entirely by themselves, so that means nothing. The guy in the video undoubtedly followed a tutorial as well, when he was first learning how to solve one. And solving one blindfolded is (counterintuitively) not significantly harder than with your eyes open.

If you watch a few minutes of the video I mentioned then you might realize that you too could do any of these things with a bit of practice.

You raise a great point there!

It still takes patience, practice, and knowledge.

Exactly, but not talent! I'm not saying it's very easy, maybe it came across that way. But the guy in the video didn't have to put in any less work than people seeing the video and thinking that they could never do such a thing.

Never did I say it wasn't impressive, you just do not need to be superhuman to do this. Anyone who is motivated enough can learn how to do this.

"I could never do this, this person is crazy talented" is a reasonable reaction if you don't know how it's done, but it's not accurate.

If you give me 100 years honestly I think I still won't be able to do this.

Without help, then maybe you're right. But people have developed methods for solving a Rubik's cube blindfolded (which is effectively what this is) that require very little memorization. It does not at all involve keeping the state of the cube in your memory as you twist it.
