So by "character mutation" you mean the deletion of characters? Because to my ears that term still sounds like bit flips, i.e. changing characters.

But this is just using GPT(-4) proper, and not even building a product on top of it.

I don't agree that this point is crystal clear. If they'd written "They would have a Palak Paneer, or a Moru Curry, or...." and at least included one dish with "curry" in the name, then there would've been

Of course you are guilty of putting others at risk of catching your virus, and you seem perfectly aware. Did you tell them that you were possibly infectious? If this is some kind of joke I don't understand it.

"Aufregend" sounds fitting to me as a native German speaker. In most contexts I would translate it as "exciting". It can have some more negative connotations, in the "getting worked up" sense, but mostly when u

To be honest I'm actually not sure what the numbers are when it comes to preventing that particular symptom. It was just the most annoying one to me personally. In case the vaccines don't prevent it in any meaningful way after all

Yes, hospitals were woefully unprepared in many cases, and there certainly were errors in proper care. That doesn't mean though that all or even most uses of ventilators were wrong.

The people who couldn't breathe certainly appreciated the ventilators. Possible that some were hooked to them unnecessarily, but certainly not all of them.

I think the risks of lying in a hospital, strapped to a ventilator were a lot higher with Covid than with getting the shot. To be honest I would recommend the shot even if just to prevent potential month-long loss of smell, as I experienced

While there are some other factors at play, and some inaccuracies in those claims, mentioned by sister comments, I agree with the conclusion. I've mentioned my observations in another comment thread: https://news.ycombinator

It was more meant as a joke than a "trick question" calling them out as a "hypocrite". No need to infer nefarious intentions on my part. That said, swearing by a particular "course of action" and thinking it su

Sure, but that changes nothing about the hipocrisy or your right to speak up against it. It's fine to point out flaws in something you're not (or no longer) a part of.
