I got 0, which was somewhat surprising because I struggle with some other colorblindness tests, like the dot circles. I think my colorblindness is on the milder side, but I was still expecting to get a few wrong on this one.

So if the government wants to force a company like Twitter to be a "public square", all it has to do is just post some information exclusively on that platform? And then the company has no choice and must stop moderating the platf

Oh, to be clear, I'm not saying Omicron isn't causing the increase - it definitely is. I just meant that when Omicron is running wild, you'll also start finding it among the baseline admissions.

I wonder if this will lead to new speedrunning strategies? The existing strategies are already mind-blowingly complicated and make use of bugs, glitches and quirks that feel nearly impossible to discover.

There's also a "big omega", which gives a lower bound instead of an upper bound. I guess the name is a little redundant, though.

Yeah, the text-to-image seems to be highly dependent on whether the generator knows how to generate the specific objects the text model thinks should be in the image. I got much more consistent results using the semantic segmentation drawi

And yet look at how many comments in this thread are breathlessly accepting the idea that only 2% of Americans are satisfied with life, and drawing a variety of philosophical and political conclusions from that absurd statistic.

Hmm, I don't think I am. I'm just saying that Uniswap for non-crypto assets isn't really a demonstration of how cool crypto is.

I mean, if someone showed by some great new innovation to let HFT shops move faster, I'd also be a bit nonplussed. If the answer is just "well, this is no more useless other frivolous* money games", then I'm not really

Consider the following game matrix, in which you pick a row and your opponent picks a column, and you receive the first payoff and your opponent receives the second. (100,100) (-100,99) (99,99) (98,98) The Nash equilibrium strategy is that

Is 14 deaths a day really a "spike"? Like obviously Singapore had ~0 deaths a day for a long time, so I guess it's a big increase percentage-wise. They have a peak case rate of 3,700 a day, and a peak death rate of 14 a day
