I'm going to ask a stupid question, that comes to mind every time I read about immutable data being a big deal.
Why do I want my data to be immutable? If I'm writing a program to solve a task, most of that problem solving involves mutating data, almost by definition, no?
I must be stupid.
I think the misunderstanding here is in thinking ChatGPT has "languages". It doesn't choose a language. It is always drawing from everything it knows. The 'configuration' hence is the same for all languages, it's just basically an invisible prompt telling it, in plain text, how to communicate.
When you change/add your personalized "Custom Instructions", this is basically the same thing.
I would assume that this invisible context is in English, no matter what. It should make no difference.

Don't call the ambulance, it's too late for me
I know it won't happen, but I keep imagining CDDA getting the "Steam" treatment ala Dwarf Fortress. Both games are amazing... Should play CDDA again myself. Always such a pain to remember HOW to play though, and by the time my muscle memory gets good enough that I can actually fluidly play the game instead of staring at keybinds, I've kinda run out of gas 😄
My parents grow garlic for their own use, and they literally just store it in a basket. No conservation needed. Fine for a year! But this is in Norway, dry and cool (but not cold - they store it in the kitchen), not sure if that matters.
You are totally correct, but I feel like pointing out that a surprising number of games use the 4k texture nomenclature in a totally illogical way; they label it 4k because it's meant to look good on a 4k screen, not because the texture itself is at that resolution (or any loosely related resolution).
Which is itself really annoying. But I guess less savvy crowd might not actually understand what 'real' 4k textures even refer to?
Without a shadow of a doubt, yes. You monster.
Man. That was a good series. Not sure if I can watch it again now, though...
Seeing as it's their river and they are operating it, not sure what exactly you want as evidence.
We got warnings of this in my area, but we just barely missed the danger zone I guess. All we ended up with was a few days of steady rain. Seems it got a lot worse elsewhere...
Bvckup (not a typo)
Made by a little Swiss company, extremely light but very competent. Stays completely out of your way unless it absolutely must get your attention (which is usually never).
I think it's paid only but it's very reasonable. Works great in intermittent situations, I. E. It won't blow up if it tries to run a scheduled backup and the source or target is disconnected etc... Works very well for me for a decade.
I can't give an authorative answer (not my domain), but I think there are two ways these types of things are done.
First is just observing the page or service as an external entity; basically requesting a page or hitting an endpoint, and just tracking whether you get a response (if not, it must be down), or for measuring load level in a very naive way, track the response time. This is easy in the sense that you need no special access to the target. But it's also limited in its accuracy.
Second way, like what your github example is doing, is having access to special api endpoints for (or direct access to) performance metrics. Since the github status page is literally ran by Github, they obviously have easy access to any metric they could want. They probably (certainly) run services whose entire job is to produce reliable data for their status page.
The minute details of each of these options is pretty open ended; many ways to do it.
Just my 5¢ as a non-web developer.
