Can my TV not have a whole OS? I’m just going to use the hdmi ports.

Just buy a TV without ads. Free market at work. /s

You don’t trust a website named infoemplea2?

Is it because they’d need to pay out more often?

Ah yes, very intelligent. Can’t wait for AI to be shoehorned into every facet of our lives with outcomes like these.

They had mmap, but it was dropped at some point, I guess. They do have syslog though https://pkg.go.dev/log/syslog

Please really think hard about what that means. Let me give you an example of how backwards that is: Are you telling me that, for example, Linus Torvalds (or any major contributor to Linux) has generated less long term human value than a co

What does Java or Python have in their stdlib that go doesn’t?

I just read about it in chapter 2 of “Advanced programming in the UNIX environment” It didn’t sound like the US government made it, just pushed for it and probably contributed to the initial versions

Even in the most popular vocaloid concerts, musicians still play music. I can’t imagine going to a “live” concert to watch a machine generate music, unless significant work went in to the light show. Defeats the purpose At that point I’m th

The UNIX standard was made in part because the government wanted an operating system standard, right? Seems reasonable they’d push for a browser standard as well…. Even though we kind of have one.

It works out so well for the UN!

Exactly this. I work in the LLM-augmented search space, so I might be a little too tuned in on this subject.

I feel like many fields are going to basically cut out junior level jobs for AI, then 10 years down the line complain that there are no more people they can hire for mid level/senior jobs.

Strong claims. Have we seen any other form of communication and/or artistic expression become totally automated? Even 2d art hasn’t been automated by image generation models. It’s just another tool in the bag.

Kind of tangential, but I don’t think you can brute force go. We’d run out of energy before it finished. Statistical models shortcut that search space. But I agree that just because a screwdriver is good at screws doesn’t mean its good at h

Makes perfect sense. The semantic understanding capabilities fit well for creating knowledge graphs.

No. The stochastic parrot argument is a weak one.

You’re right. Maybe rational was the wrong word. Humans aren’t perfectly objective.

None of that matters if my kitten is in danger!

Please tell me I’m not the only one that sees the irony in AI relying on classic search. Obviously LLMs are good at some semantic understanding of the prompt context and are useful, but the irony is hilarious

Well humans aren’t perfectly rational. I wouldn’t think it moral to save my kitten over a random non-evil person, but I’d still do it.

by dartos 2y ago
Where did the kittens come from? If they were spawned into existence for this thought experiment, then the human, probably. But if even one of those kittens were mine, entire cities could be leveled before I let anyone hurt my kitten.

If your goal is just to raise some weight above an arbitrary height, why wouldn’t you?

That’s probably the most common reason for anyone to be in school.
