As if there was an easy, foolproof and precise way to calculate these probabilities. "Just only alter the patient when it is appropriate" he said. You can solve all the world's problems this way, just "always do the righ

The glorified autocomplete. Why would the LLM "work on something else then get back on this", is it's subconscious going to solve the problem during that time? But because people say it, it says it too. Making sense is option

What does it matter where they are routed through? You think your Starlink service in Germany is beyond the control of Musk or the US government?

What do you think the word "universal" means?

> Sometimes it's title. Sometimes it's timing. Sometimes it's more substantial - a chance to rethink, redo, rebrand, rewrite, etc. How do you choose what to change? No interaction means no feedback.

Conveniently sidestepping the discussion of "should we care". I don't know how many people care or not, but I think more would care if the situation and implications were better known. It's good that this is brought to a

There exists a concept called "regression to the mean". I don't think "regression from the mean" means anything. There is no way pilots form all over the world could "regress to the mean". They could n

Elect by the people at large? People who voted for Trump and such? What's the point in an elected institution separated from the government - the government is already elected, and people will mostly vote for candidates from the same p

What rules can you possibly have that distinguish the expert and the manipulator in all cases, without abuse? I think free speech comes from the same base as universal vote: any selection mechanism would be corrupted and in the end cause mo

So who gets to decide? Someone who is above influence? Who is that? There has to be a lot more nuance. I clearly see that both Putin and the CCP do a lot of things predicated on the exact claim that their respective populations can not be l

Sounds really sad. I am not a director of anything, I probably make almost nothing compared to you, and yet I know who I am outside of my job. I have friends who value who I am, regardless of my job or even between jobs. I would not trade p

It sounds like it takes you at least 10 minutes to just write the prompt with all the details you mentioned. Especially if you need to continue and prompt again (and again?).

What is the point of the "I'm Marcus" part of your introduction? Reading your post I get the impression it has zero value, or at least you think so. > Hi, I'm Marcus > What do you do Marcus > I'm on a break

If it's a win they would do it already, no? There's no law against it, is there.

Didn't this use to be called "compilation"?

Feels like we are able to build software solutions for much more challenging problems than "only download the part that the user needs instead of everything and the kitchen sink". The explanation you provided doesn't make me

Somtetimes people write "This", and that's apparently a no-no. You are told to just upvote.

Something is missing here. Once you get two moonshots done, you have free pass to claim anything any number of times with zero results? I cannot agree.

Any average would seem regular. One chomping at a given interval. But we don't know from the average anything about regularity. Maybe all 47 chomps were in the last few weeks, maybe not. One is regular the other is irregular. /stu

I mean it's very funny. Just I'm laughing at the AI, not with it.

But there's no mention of fun or humor in the prompt.

by lucianbr 10mo ago
Does the prompt say anything about being funny, about a joke? If yes, great. If no, terrible. And the answer is no.

How does anyone "control" an OSS project in the sense that you are talking about, so the ability to insert backdoors or activate kill-switches? Maybe Linus controls Linux, but can he "flick a switch and kill" any running

Why bother to put the SLA in the contract at all, if people have no choice but to sign it? Netflix doesn't put in the contract that they will have high-quality shows. (I guess, don't have a contract to read right now.)

by lucianbr 11mo ago
Are the contracts so easy to bypass? Who signs a contract with an SLA knowing the service provider will just lie about the availability? Is the client supposed to sue the provider any time there is an SLA breach?

"Strongly" and "just like everyone else" are contradictory, no? Assuming "strongly" is somehow relative. If you have an absolute measuring scale for bias-bringing-to-bear, I would love to hear about it.

Here's another quote, I don't know if it's from a speech or anything: > What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.
