    I'm wearing glasses all my life, heh. And you made me think, I'm completely ok with reading light text on dark or black background. But somehow using dark mode on desktop feels wrong. Maybe it's inconsistency between dark more implementations across different apps... maybe I should give it a try again.

    I can't stand dark mode in the most apps on a desktop. My current solution is to use not-so bright lamp behind monitor to smooth light contrast in the night/evening. It can be related to astigmatism, I read at least few comments from some people with astigmatism that they also prefer light mode.

    How do you deal with errors/mistakes in a results?

    It irritates me to the no end. LLM works perfectly for simple task, but, usually, simple task is easy to do for me myself. And on most of the more complex tasks LLM starts to imagine things, create small errors, hallucinate things, etc. etc.

    For example - I ask LLM to create document explaining something, it do a very good job, but make like 3-4 mistakes here and there that I caught, and now I have the document where I have to verify each fact manually?

    If you sideload apps, it might affect what apps are available to you after upgrading to a newer version of Android.

    I don't think that's the case, article didn't mention upgrading to newer version of OS, instead

    In March 2026, verification will go live for all developers.

    so, I suppose it will be implemented on a application (Play Store, System Security apps) level.
    And yes, I have few apps that not supported anymore, downloaded from other sources: GitHub, itch.io, etc. etc.

    Is there anything we can do? I don't want to Google to dictate me what I can/can't install on my phone.

    Yeah, no mention of training, idle spending, infrastructure. Its like server contains only bare CPU and memory and no other chips, no other controllers, no perifery, etc. etc.

    Yeah, no mention of training, idle spending, infrastructure.

    Another large portion of the energy is used by equipment needed to support AI-specific hardware: The host machine’s CPU and memory account for another 25% of the total energy used.

    Still playing Trackmania (goal is to get max of Silver medals on all of the TOTD). A bit better with tech, not ideal, but I feel like drifting is "clicked" for me. Still struggling with ice.

    Started playing gacha game Grimlight on Android. Game is officially dead but developers decided to convert it to free offline version. (Glory, glory to the team!). And I love it! No pressure to complete daily tasks, no IAPs, no way to miss content. Grinding is tolerable, and I just love it that I can play it the way I like - again, no pressure, no way to miss anything.

    Also playing Stellar Blade. Game is beautiful, combat is smooth and I honestly love it. Currently slowly finishing the game and I think I will try NG+ after that.

    As a Ukrainian Im quite confident that "YABADABADU" comes from Fred Flintstone (and looks like have no other meanings) and used just for rhyme and maybe nostalgia a little. This song is definitely not my cup of tea, but stylization with elements from 1990-2000 years is interesting.

    Depends on a human being maybe? Technically it's like additional sub-question: "Find the answer and check is answer equal to 175."

    Appending “Is it possibly 175?” to a math question would absolutely increase the error rate of human beings on a certain subset of problems.
