Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Help changing text and images in POS softwareEnglish
2·2 months agoDo a look-through of that XML folder as well. Images could be base64 encoded in those XML files. I remember several instances where XML was used as a template “language” for old style GUIs. (When XML and HTML diverged, a lot of that kind of thing was happening.)

6·2 months agoThere are some kind of instructions in this video that go through a logo change process. I don’t know if this helps, but I tried: https://youtu.be/QrobPTgu7C0
Also, does it use some kind of database? The images seem like they would be small enough to jam into a blob and just store alongside regular inventory information. If there is a database, it’s probably third-party. If it’s third-party, I would see if it had its own installer packaged inside of the application installer itself. (A third party database would likely be outside of the main app folder.)
Just dumping random thoughts.

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•AI Bots Show Signs of Gambling Addiction, Study Finds
38·2 months agoThese findings suggest LLMs can internalize human-like cognitive biases and decision-making mechanisms beyond simply mimicking training data patterns
lulzwut? LLMs aren’t internalizing jack shit. If they exhibit a bias, it’s because of how they were trained. A quick theory would be that the interwebs is packed to the brim with stories of “all in” behaviors intermixed with real strategy, fiction or otherwise. I speculate that there are more stories available in forums of people winning doing stupid shit then there are of people losing because of stupid shit.
They exhibit human bias because they were trained on human data. If I told the LLM to only make strict probability based decisions favoring safety (and it didn’t “forget” context and ignored any kind of “reasoning”), the odds might be in its favor.
Sorry, I will not read the study because of that one sentence in its summary.

Programming@programming.dev•Do you guys use AI when programming? If so, how?
53·2 months agoWhen I use it, I use it to create single functions that have known inputs and outputs.
If absolutely needed, I use it to refactor old shitty scripts that need to look better and be used by someone else.
I always do a line-by-line analysis of what the AI is suggesting.
Any time I have leveraged AI to build out a full script with all desired functions all at once, I end up deleting most of the generated code. Context and “reasoning” can actually ruin the result I am trying to achieve. (Some models just love to add command line switch handling for no reason. That can fundamental change how an app is structured and not always desired.)

Ok, that lead to some giggles thinking about some company drilling in the future thinking they were about to hit a strangely untapped oil field.
Add a hundred years of methane pressure build up and that could be really interesting gusher.

My general attitude is similar to yours. Let OP figure out that the reporting and blocking is basically just creating more noise that has to gets filtered out and bot supply is basically infinite.
“It’s a learning experience.”
Good luck with that, I suppose. Botnets can have thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of infected hosts that will endlessly scan everything on the interwebs. Many of those infected hosts are behind NAT’s and your abuse form would be the equivalent of reporting an entire region for a single scan.
But hey! Change the world, amirite?
That comment is pure gold and I am archiving it for future use.

13·6 months agoInstructions: 1. Please read instructions
I looked into that and the only question I really have is how geographically distributed the samples were. Other than that, It was an oversampled study, so <50% of the people were the control, of sorts. I don’t fully understand how the sampling worked, but there is a substantial chart at the bottom of the study that shows the full distribution of responses. Even with under 1000 people, it seems legit.
In this study, we conducted a survey (n = 742) including a representative U.S. sample and an oversample of gender minorities, racial minorities, and disabled individuals to examine how demographic factors shape AI attitudes.

I just need something that mostly works and doesn’t have a huge learning curve. The web-dev aspect is something I really don’t want to think about, but, is something that I can dive into for hyper-customization if needed.
