yeah on the other hand navigating a shitty 2004 car radio screen is extremely quick and easy!
like seriously, this makes no fucking sense, both are too much of a distraction to fuck with while driving, but with a phone you can at least easily search and play stuff when parked or stopped at a red light.
and btw i can skip songs just fine, most custom roms allow you to map holding the volume keys to skip forward/back, which only takes a fraction of a second and isn't any more dangerous than operating the car radio
plus chinkshit android head units also exist so just get one of those??? you basically didn't address anything

I doubt this is real, from the fact it contains {{currentDateTime}} instead of the actual date. If this was just "prompt injection" where the user got the bot to repeat the prompt, it would be the actual date. This reads to me more like the bot just made up what it might look like.

That is, in fact, what LLMs do, so it is more likely an approximation of its actual system prompt, than the actual one, however, if, for some reason, it did end up outputting a significant number of the exact system prompt tokens, its not unreasonable to think that the next most likely token would continue to be the actual prompt tokens, and it would end up spitting out the whole thing.

I often notice that a good portion of my classmates take digital notes. They copy everything attentively, yet it makes no difference with regards to actually understanding what they've copied. This is reflected by the fact that they don't perform any better on exams. Though I suppose this could just be confounded with the possibility that they believe that copying the notes verbatim is enough for them learn something. Might be sufficient for helping them know what to do on assignments, but it's gone come exams and the final.
>>106864752
Personally, I find myself retaining information better when I'm studying on my own and working on a whiteboard. It's easy to just find yourself copying the textbook essentially word for word, and knowing I'll just erase everything forces me to just write what's important. I end up tossing my notes anyway.

OneNote

you don't even need a pen/tablet if you have a good enough mouse to free-hand the equations, and its built-in "ink to math" is really good at figuring out what you've scribbled and turning it into a formula you can then copy and paste into a document, or keep it in your notes

and the obvious advantage of digital notes over pen and paper is that you can easily move stuff around to better organize it

I've used it to test it out, but i'm just a guy learning how to do gamedev, not a big studio.
I only went for ktx because I had managed to load some gltf files, but decoding PNG textures with stbi was taking long enough to be a little annoying.
I agree the interface is kind of unclear at first and there are no good examples to get started. But in the end, all I really needed was just ktxTexture2_CreateFromMemory. I looked at the internals of ktx code and the C function is really just calling a method in the Texture2 C++ class. It seemed kind of insane, but at least the C interface is easy to use.

If you've never done texture compression, there is lots of similar sounding terminology which can be confusing, but actually using it is not that bad. You need your ktx textures to be in one of the BasisU encodings (UASTC (slightly bigger but higher quality) or ETC1s (slightly smaller but much worse quality, pretty much only for mobile)).
GPUs cannot use these formats directly, they're intended to be transcoded to different compressed formats that the GPU can actually use.
I don't know which graphics api you're using, but ASTC is not available on opengl for example. Let's say you want your texture to use BC7 compression, then you'd call ktxTexture2_TranscodeBytes(texture, KTX_TTF_BC7_RGBA, 0). Assuming you have opengl 4 functions you'd do glTextureStorage(tex_id, mipmap_levels, GL_COMPRESSED_RGBA_BPTC_UNORM, width, height) to create the texture.
Note that you can use the toktx tool with --genmipmap. Then ktx gives you all mipmapped textures for all levels (starting with the smallest). You probably shouldn't call glGenerateMipmaps because that is insanely slow on compressed textures. Instead, do something like this:
pixels = decoded_bytes + length;
for level {
pixels -= width * height;
glCompressedTextureSubImage2D(texture, level, 0, 0, width, height), GL_COMPRESSED_RGBA_BPTC_UNORM, level_size, pixels);
width /= 2;
height /= 2;
