What's the misunderstanding? The hallucinations I've seen from AI tend to not be that dissimilar to when humans are guessing. They will guess that a function like that exists. The difference being that humans are capable of checki

I remember that a decade ago people would try to gaslight you into thinking that there were no problems with migrants in Sweden. "Our crime statistics are high because we changed how we count crimes!" You would hear phrases like t

"We should regulate it because I dislike it" is such a European take. And I say this as a European. No wonder our economies are stagnating. I like F2P games. I know it's hard for someone born rich to understand this, but no

I'm not sure. I don't think anyone knows for sure, but obesity probably heavily factors into it. 53% of Europeans are overweight or obese. The same figure in the US is 72%. That's a 36% difference. More than that, 17% of Euro

The welfare systems (in Europe at least) don't work. They work if you're old right now, but once the young people of today become old they won't get anything meaningful out of it. At least that's the impression I have an

Maybe governments need to stop spending 40-50% of the entire GDP? For example, the US federal government + state governments spend about $10 trillion a year. The US has a GDP of about $25 trillion. And the US isn't exactly known as a h

The Council can have a qualified majority vote - for the vote to pass 55% of the member states representing at least 65% of the EU population has to vote in favor. The EU has a population of 450 million. 35% of it is a little over 157 milli

The way the EU differs from national systems in that the EU is compartmentalized. The different languages and cultures mean that ideas, information, and politics doesn't flow freely. If you care about a specific policy then not only do

I'm the same way. I wonder if it has to do with food or even the expectation of food. Maybe eating (or even drinking water) sends the body on a rollercoaster that mostly settles down by evening time.

But is that really good? I can increase my sensivity very high on my mouse, where I barely have to move the mouse. However, this does cause me more pain than low sensitivity instead. High sensitivity makes me move the mouse almost entirely

The US is a ~250 year old continuous democracy. Almost no European states can say the same. After WW1 a lot of democratic European states popped up. Two decades later half of them were autocratic. I think it's half that our governments

Stupid new rules. And I think I'm already being charitable. Of course phones should be banned during class , but not in-between classes. > Under the new rules, pupils who don't comply will be excluded from school for one day.
