yeah I hit it in about two. I just signed up monthly to try it out for a bit but am wavering on whether I consider it worth it. It's good but I'm not sure it's enough better than DDG to pay for. And for AI I'd usually ra

> I did not argue God exists because no one can prove he doesn't. You are saying that by claiming that my claim is dogma. If I say the sky appears blue that isn't dogma, it's a statement of human perception of reality. I

Existence is all we know; there is nothing more ordinary. The idea of nothing existing is just that: an idea. Like god.

That is not rational. You can’t just make up an idea and then claim it’s true because no one can prove it isn’t. If you want to claim something that is outside our ordinary perceptions (and tests!) of how reality works is true then the onus

That’s a fine definition but it doesn’t encompass the ramifications. Christianity doesn’t simply define god, it dictates what will happen to you if you disagree or go against its presumed will. The universe won’t damn you to an eternity of

Yes you can say that. Why would we be better off without saying these things? There’s nothing wrong with speaking out when we see people saying things we believe to be false and it’s unreasonable to expect everyone to hedge every single thi

I didn’t even mention the bible, which I have read btw. The assertion was that Christianity offers a “beautiful and empowering message” and I said that it’s also imaginary. The message is imaginary because it’s based on an imaginary idea: g

Yeah this is what I was thinking, or maybe use smaller models to work on the prompt then fire it off to the biggie while you do something else.

Frigate rocks, I love all the zany things it can detect. Want to know if there's a zebra, snowboard or teddy bear at your door? You got it! You can announce if someone is wearing glasses or has a handbag.

Fellow HA enthusiast here high fives I’ve been upgrading my adaptive lighting over the past few days so this is neat timing. I’m taking quite a different approach though. While I do have a script that can be called to set a light to the “

The lack of ordering is surprising. Without that you can’t stream without a buffer.

X to doubt. So far at least, to do anything nontrivial you still have to understand code. Sure it will raise the bar for what someone without such understanding can make, but a lot of that can already be done with code-free tools. What most

I dunno, I’m sure sure who I’d bet on in a race of ML website use vs. ML trying to detect ML website use.

Everyone's to blame - those who voted for this idiot and everyone else for not doing enough to stop it.

All eligible voters are collectively responsible for the outcome of the election. You can't be proud of democracy if you won't shoulder the blame when it renders poor outcomes.

Even if these idiots wanted subtlety they're too stupid to make it happen. They just want to do big, bold things but have no idea how to actually make anything better.
