You're missing the point.
The goal of garbage production is not to break the bots or poison LLMs, but to remove load from your own site. The author writes it in the article. He found that feeding bots garbage is the cheapest strategy, that's all.
Actually, the exponent is smaller. IEEE 754 64-bit binary floats have an 11 bit exponent, 1 sign bit, and 53 bit mantissa (one of the bits of the mantissa is implied, by actually knowing what they're doing, rather than… whatever this is).
It's possible you've had these customized (by a toolbar or direct setting). I'm fairly certain you can change the built-in ones (I have google mapped to "g" like it was (is?) in Opera).
What I want to have, and what nobody does, is replace the computer screen with a infinite virtual screen. Same apps, windows etc. except it is in virtual reality. This way we could replace mobile phones/tablets with even smaller devices and outsource the display function to VR glasses.
Tbf unless you’re willing to gamble $2000 on a headset from Varjo or a cheaper one from Pimax, the latest consumer models that are out today still aren’t good enough for work, which is surprising since meta was advertising work functionality for years yet even the Quest Pro still isn’t good enough for work.
Maybe this will change with the upcoming $3000 Apple headset?
I know SimulaVR’s upcoming headset was designed for work from the start.
In my setup, I use aliases or functions to have short/mnemonic names for commands.
But the files on disk must always have proper extensions like .sh to quickly see what they are.
> If a user doesn't know what .ssh/ or .bash_history are, and it can hurt them to accidentally delete or modify them, why show them by default? It's like training wheels on a bike.
You have permissions to prevent from accidental deletions.
In Russian this phenomenon is called "бНОПНЯ" (read "b-nop-nya") and was caused by taking the word "Вопрос" (meaning: "question") in win-1251 encoding and reading it as if it was in KOI-8 encoding.
Also this is called "крокозябры" (read: kro-ko-zya-bry, nonsense word, no translation) especially when reading a binary file in a text viewer.
I was punished in school for having NetHack source code in my home dir.
And it was not because it was a game but because it allegedly was a hacking tool.
In highschool I was sent to detention and almost suspended because a study hall teacher overheard me talking about the "black market" feature of an roleplaying game I was writing on my graphing calculator. It took an hour of trying to explain TI-BASIC to my principle (and I think some angry phonecalls from my mother, a teacher in that district) before they relented with the insane mafioso accusations.
