Yep, when you need people to start taking action to stop the world from literally burning then it's important to publicize that it's happening and people are likely to get scared

There is a lot of content on YouTube of people scambaiting, it's quite fun to watch. I haven't seen one with someone using an LLM to chat with the scammers, but it could well be there somewhere

In my local Sainsbury's, the Guardian and the Independent are on the top row just above comfortable eye level. Staring you in the face is the Star, Sun and Daily Mail.

How do you know that trees don't care about counting things? Have you ever been a tree?

You could source a new part yourself and get it installed there. It will set you back much less than $200

$200 to replace glass is pretty absurd, I bet they'd do that for £20 at the second hand phone shop round the corner from me

How much of the increase in Indian and Chinese emissions is accounted for by increased manufacturing of products being sent to the US?

What about an ai generated article about the dod?

Also true everywhere else in the world, probably at least slightly better in the US and other democracies.

My first reading of the sentence in question was that it was patronising

I assumed the reason was going to be poor urban planning resulting in sprawling cities which need longer routes. From a scan read, this didn't appear to be the point made in the article.

Oh yeah that's a nice observation! Protective space in 2D is the same as the Riemann sphere, which is the complex plane with one point added at infinity. I forgot to add to my post that, SL(2) is the symmetry group of the Riemann spher

Imagine you have a function which transforms nicely under scaling, ie. f(Mx) = M^k f(x) for some b. Then if you have systems where you use x -> Mx regularly, you'll find these functions turn up because they're the ones that res

I'm very happy that 'slosh' is used in a well-defined way in this context.

If we haven't slipped that sounds pretty positive to me, better than anything else I've read in the news about our economy for a long time

When I looked at this I thought the title had been shortened and the meaning was obfuscated. The idea that Nintendo would sell to Microsoft is pretty laughable to me.

At most any model can describe some part of reality with a given validity. Some models don't have any region of validity so we shouldn't use them. I think saying that 'all models are wrong' is kind of, rhetorical rather

I watched a news clip where they were covering some slums up with netting to hide them. That was kind of, questionable. Bulldozing is a whole different thing

I used Mathematica a lot in my PhD. I never really understood this syntax, using a second layer of braces to separate the primitives would have made more sense to me. Many other parts of the Wolfram language I found to be intuitive and well

What's the attenuation rate of neutrons by the shielding? I find it hard to believe it would be 100% with none passing into the piping or water

Zen masters spend many hours sitting. I haven't checked, but I suspect that they have lower than the average rate of dementia

What will you do with all the radioactive piping and water that you produce?

If you want to send things there, I would say the best solution is to take this as evidence that interesting exoplanets exist, and to look for similar closer ones

You make art for the making, not for the appraisal. When you've made the art, see how you feel. If you feel bad about your art, it's an opportunity to meet some challenging feelings and see how they're getting on. If you feel

I have just relegated a bunch of my apps into deep sleep, thank you. YouTube Music was using 100 times as much battery as Spotify. I use them both, I'd say about 1:3 YouTube M:Spotify
