I mean it could be both right? See this: https://www.genesisrecovery.com/drug-addiction-and-homelessn... One thing about both the studies you reference and studies I reference is that they're both correlative. Not caus

Quoted from the same site in the 2022 study: "The death rate from fentanyl increased 10-fold from 2015 to 2019. The rate of prescription opioid deaths fell 30% from 2011 to 2019." "The number of amphetamine-related emergency

Strange. The things you were "missing" were covered in my CS program. I learned very little on the job. It was mostly things outside the job.

So you're saying if the wind is strong enough the right airplane can take off with 0 or negative speed? Has this ever been done? Excluding VTOL aircrafts of course.

LLMs as they are now won't take over your job, but they are a herald for something in the future that could take your job. We aren't sure yet but the evidence is compelling enough that we need to consider the possibility. I mean y

I do not speak to fraudster or fantasists. Paraphrasing you earlier. Your responses to me in other threads were fucking rude and as a result I now literally hate you. So why bother, just leave and save everyone the trouble. Nobody cares for

Keep in mind there's a token limit. Once you pass that limit it no longer remembers. Yes. You are pointing out various flaws which again is quite obvious. Everyone knows of the inconsistencies with these LLMs. Too this I again say that

Agreed. But why be delusional? The tool is right at your fingertips. Why deny the reality of the situation rather then face the truth? If they fear the AI owners attack the owners directly. Don't attack reality itself and say the AIs a

You recall mercury? Mercury was used by doctors for years as medicine and it was validated by anecdotal experiences. But it really had the complete opposite effect. It killed people. That is the reliability of anecdotes and an illustration

It's because the lack of practical applications. People can make broken abstractions without knowledge of the fundamentals like compositions or functors and still get their shit to work. That matters more to engineers then true underst

It just hasn't clicked for you yet. I wouldn't call it "another level of abstraction" It's more of a "fundamental theory of abstraction". Once it clicks you can see it. And you will see all the design patt

You are getting your emotions mixed up with facts. When you use open source you are exploiting a resource as there is no fair trade. It's not a crime nor is it immoral but because no fair trade occured it is technically an exploitation

But the problem is we see opposite trends as well. We see paradoxical trends and trends that are not. It just means the paradox can sometimes occur it does not mean the paradox is a general rule.

Except how did the company go bankrupt then? This paradox only occurs if every resource is abundant. We tend to see it a lot (especially in the last decade) because of the easy money policies by the Fed in the last decade or so. Following y

The problem is your CEO was right. Exploiting open source is the right move. Instead of hiring engineers to write an operating system you guys likely exploited Linux and a bunch of other free tools. 100 percent: open source has contributed
