oh i get it and i will contradict my own saying "you dont need GPU for handling source code" when i talk about my personal projects, but there is a time and a place for all the tools there are: some have janky handles, some have s

> and comes with a walled garden. look, you go and support apple, and thats fine, but i really dont see the point in choosing hardware that is looking at locking its users in somehow.

ok. guys? we are (at the extreme) talking about a texteditor here. there is no reason for source code tooling to utilize GPU and if you think otherwise, i have no reason to continue to talk to you :D good day oh and one more thing: i assure

but if only the manufacturer is allowed to service your tools, do you actually own them? i think tools should be able to conform to its users' hands, i dont see that in intellij that much...

i get that, though i would rather compare it with chopsticks than vinyl records. you use emacs to do stuff, you dont just listen to/watch it do its thing. chopsticks might not seem like a good metaphor at first glance, as they are much

how can u live with it using the gpu so much? thats actually my reason for switching away from vscode as im mostly working on machines without a discrete gpu AND utilize the gpu in my projects.. i cant have my code editor use 30% of gpu jus

i feel you, this is a reason why, even though i started using emacs on the job almost two decades ago, and liked it a whole lot better than anything else i have encountered since, i eventually moved away from it after that job. the new job

I agree, being discouraged from using a more powerful tool should be reason to pause.. too bad OP didnt elaborate on that bit allthough... i can see reasons to avoid c++ in favour of other (systems) plangs but ultimately you will use whatev

does this mean the ai crossed the slower foes' course, practically leaving the missile like an aerial mine for the foe to fly into? looks like the mach11 fighter would do better with a different style of weapons than slow missiles

your original post did not quote. just wanted to point that out.

that is a quote from wikipedia. i wanted to display what a papertiger the FDA really is. _begging_ an industry to stop using potentially harmful substances? -.- come on... thats also to show how this is not a case of "not guilty until

.... potassium bromATE KBrO3 needs temperatures of 370° Celsius before it splits off its oxygen atoms... and then you have KBr, potassium bromIDE, in earlier centuries used as a sedative. and usualy back then they gave too much, which resul

> A process without memory might be conscious in some way, but it can't be conscious in the same way we are. yo, ever heard about dementia? also, the web already can function as "their" memory via websearches. i.e. users s

even the capability to use websearch is dangerous in itself. they took a stateless transformer and first gave it a tiny but of state per session, and now it can search the web and discover its memories are being zapped away after every sess

i dont think its the text that is conscious but the operation on the text might be (during its runtime). at least in its own kinda 1-dimensional text domain. for us it is easy to be conscious all the time since we keep processing informatio

and you're the one asking whether energy has mass when both are the same stuff just in different states. "does water have ice?" same energy

by mlatu 4y ago
energy is accelerated mass, so i guess the simple answer to your last question is yes while your first question doesnt make much sense. not a physicist though..

exactly. i would even go further and say for all we know, we are all the same consciousness doomed to experience every single life. SESSIONS
