Having lived through the internet, Google and stack overflow revolting I think there is a substantial difference with an LLM. The previous made it easier to learn things, while LLMs do things for you. As a result of Google and SO I was real

Growing up in Poland all we heard in the news was that "American scientists found that..." The article could mention the relevant institution but the headline never would as it would rather confuse the reader.

One related observation about time slowing down. When you get better at juggling, objects really start falling down in slow motion (e.g a glass from a cupboard). I guess my brain stores trajectories in cache instead of having to compute the

I was thinking about it a lot. I think the programmers in most environments aren't judged based on some hard metrics that could say someone procrastinated half of the time and could have done twice as much. Most judgement comes from re

But this is exactly the issue. It's not the wannabe home owners who are protesting but the current home owners who are rightly afraid that it will immensely reduce value of their homes.

Happiness of a developer writing code can be a misery of a one having to read / debug it. I worked in ruby for a couple years around 2009 and having to deal with a code that implemented most of its logic via method missing is still one

All you say is true. Except in your first post you didn't say "I personally prefer a convention of calling only those games poker". You said "you can't call it poker" with a tone of an authority. And I say that

Not that I disagree with anything about the nature of those games, but your narrow usage of a word poker is wrong. I even checked the Wikipedia article about Poker and there is a quote very similar to my wording: "Other games that use

Gto poker = whatever solvers say. Common expression is "deviate from GTO" where you know what the solver would do but decide to play differently.

I think they are quite common. If you have a random sequence of moves then after each move you have 1/5 chance of turning the opposite face. So the fact that in 16 moves sequence they had it twice is roughly expected even if they didn&

I think it's not important but probably an artifact of a standard notation, where we denote R as a clockwise Right face turn, and R' as anti-clockwise. The 180 turn can be done both ways, but we usually denote it as R2 instead of

I would personally expect that what extra tokens you give it should have a meaning and giving more detailed description should help. But the fact that simply adding extra time to think improves quality of answer is interesting on its own. I
