Comment Re:There's no point to homework (Score 2) 150

When i took calculus, long before LLMs were viable, my professor assigned lots of exercises but then didn't grade them. Doing the homework was like lifting weights; by the end of each semester (I took 3 classes with this professor), you could definitely see who did the homework and who didn't -- people who practiced were better at calculus. For practical subjects like math, spending more time doing a thing makes you better at the thing; this is why homework exists, because class time is very limited.

From the summary:

The seven chatbots were also collectively three times more likely to cite left-leaning pink slime sites (cited in 36.3 percent of responses) than their right-leaning counterparts (cited in 11.9 percent of responses)

As easy as it is to point out Trump's abusive tactics, they're not the only ones here.

When we said we wanted ARM platforms to support a standard for booting, we didn't mean like that.

I think the real headline here is "we boot with UEFI" and not the specific EFI binary they chose. If systemd-boot runs without a ton of patches, it's likely that grub-efi and the EFI kernel stub will run too. As far as "arm supports a standard for booting", this is good news.
