Having more than one account isn't against Reddit's ToS.

If you use your different accounts in different subreddits and never have your accounts interact, you won't be banned.

If you don't restrict each account to specific subreddits, it's quite likely that one will get banned somewhere without you noticing or remembering.

If you happen to post to the same subreddit with another account at some point, Reddit bans all of your accounts.

I've definitely posted to the same subreddit with two different accounts by accident without being banned.

The android reddit app annoyingly doesn't check for account matches. If you click a browser notification link on Account A it can open a reply form on App account B.

I meant if one of the accounts is already banned there, it counts as ban evasion and Reddit bans all of your accounts.

This might easily happen if you like to participate in political discussions.

In hindsight, I understand. But I did this 6-7 years back and no one has come after me, should I care at this point?

Anecdotal but I've noticed Reddit has gotten very ban happy in general in the past year.

I actually gave up using it because, perhaps in part because I'm behind a VPN (required in my country), any new accounts I create get banned very quickly once I start commenting.

I haven't been able to create a Reddit account by any method in years. It always happens in one of two ways: you create an account and instantly get the red banner at the top of the page saying you're banned, or you create an account, post a few comments, notice nobody's replying to you, try loading your profile page in private browsing and it says you don't exist (a shadow ban).

There's nothing of much value on that website, but sometimes I try creating an account to comment on something.

Sure but the background chances of an account getting banned for clashing with a mod is quite high.

The only place PFAS is used in an FDM printer is the filament guide some printers have. That's a Teflon tube that the filament travels in towards the hotend. Bowden style printers tend to have a long tube, direct drive printers sometimes have a short tube fully contained in the hotend assembly.

I don't see how PFAS can be used as a filament in FDM printer. It's not a thermoplastic, that's one of its advantages as a material.

> You search for matching documents in your vector database / index. Once you have found the potentially relevant list of documents you check which ones can the current user access. You only pass the ones over to the LLM which the user can see.

Sometimes the potentially relevant list of documents itself is a leak all by itself.

But you process that list in a trusted audited app tier not in the client environment

A naive approach could still leak information through side channels. E.g. if you search regularly for foobar, the answer might suddenly get slower if foobar appears more in the document base.

Depending on the context it could be relevant.

But we're talking about access control, so in this case "filtering for foobar" means "filtering for stuff I'm allowed to see", and the whole point is that you can never turn that filter off to get a point of comparison.

If Joe's search is faster than Sally's because Sally has higher permissions, that's hardly a revelation.

That's nothing specific to LLM-enhanced search features though, right? Any search feature will have that side channel risk

I read that as the author, going to the funeral, broke down. That is they felt devastated emotionally, internally and possibly externally as in "broke down crying".

The funeral itself probably continued without any issues. I guess that's another social skills lesson, the world carries on regardless of your emotions.

MSVC always focused on C++, and C was treated as an afterthought.

The irony is that Microsoft was the very last MS-DOS compiler vendor to support C++ in their C tooling with Microsoft C/C++ 7 in 1992, that changed with the release of Visual C++ in 1993.

That's not right. A PhD is a PhD.

An MD (Medical Doctorate) is like a master's degree. It's not like a bachelor's because many MD programs start out with or require a BSc, biology is a popular choice but a lot of STEM majors are possible.

But MD+PhD programs exist and those are definitely PhDs.

You are right that an MD is not a PhD, though. Notice how they don't call it a PhD.

> It’s not like a bachelor’s because many MD programs start out with or require a BSc

In many countries, the degree you must obtain to qualify as an MD is indeed a bachelor’s degree, the “Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery” (often abbreviated MB ChB or MBBS).

It's still a 5-6 year degree, as opposed to a 3-4 year bachelor's.

I agree it's not a research degree though... But some master programs don't include writing a research thesis either.

MDs are also obsessed with calling each other “doctor”. It always comes across as imposed authority from people who are essentially body mechanics.

No, a MD is a professional doctorate with novelty and research requirements, it's between a DA and a PhD in terms of difficulty.

Sorry, I'm having trouble parsing your point.

"Professional degree" is juxtaposed with "research degree". So if you say it's a professional degree, you're basically agreeing it's not a research degree...

In my country at least MDs are not required to be researchers and the degree has no novelty requirements. They're required to be competent medical professionals.

There are countries where the base medical degree is the MBBS and MD is a graduate research doctorate. That's not what I'm talking about here.

I'm not talking about "difficulty", by the way. Just the differences between the degrees.

Um, what?

It's perfectly fine to make a business implementing, installing, or supporting FOSS software. I would even consider that a positive thing. Even if you don't (or can't!) help the upstream development.

And in other cases the text is there because it has been used in other legal documents, and might not be needed for this document, but those documents were good and it doesn't cost anything to put that text in so we should keep using it.

In other words it's a cargo cult.

The question is, do you trust an LLM to distinguish the cargo cult from the actually necessary text?

Looks fine here, maybe they're blocking your IP range for some reason?
