Rich kids with inherited wealth are always perfectly fine and reasonable people?

The thing itself speaks seemingly a truth though: growing up too coddled will risk a twisted perspective of what you deserve and what's a given.

Yeah, we've been here before. Empires don't necessarily fall by the hand of their enemies as much as they fall by their own hands and hubris. See: UK, Germany, Russia, historical China and other asian countries, hell even the Roma

no need to wait, by using AI you already are mediocre at best (because you forego skill and quality for speed)

> machine intelligence is a threat to the human species. But there is no machine intelligence, the creative use of an autocomplete engine and wildly inappropriate economic behaviour on the human side will not change that. The human speci

I wonder how the actual way of opening a walnut fits into this metaphor: apply pressure to the gap line of the two halves. You can even do it with your bare hands a few times. Do not use a chisel, the nut will slip easily, duh.

idk, is "drug trafficking" enough justification to topple a country? I don't really think so. And the claim is rather spurious anyway...

What about self-determination? Peace enforced by whom?

by rf15 10mo ago
To remove, to prevent martyrdom in death, to force a change of government that sells them better oil. Same thing the US always does.

another country, without justification, again after we promised not to do that after the last dozen similar cases, duh.

Works well, maybe it was a small hiccup?

it feels like the arguments' off-by-one buffer size vs string length is horrible ergonomics and will probably lead to further usage errors in the future. Yes I have a degree in bike shedding, why am I always getting this particular que

everyone outside the US: lol polygraph selfown For those not in the know: they're unreliable to the point of uselessness and the US Government is somehow really enamoured with the fantasy of mind-reading and lie-detection. But what can

Isn't formal verification a "just write it twice" approach with different languages? (and different logical constraints on the way you write the languages)

You should not have mercy on someone who repeatedly ignores all warnings without thinking and then hurts themselves in the way the warnings promised. At that point you are on your very own.

It feels like LLMs are specifically laser targeting the "never learn" mindset, with a promise of leaving skill and knowledge to a machine. (people like that don't even pause to think why they would be needed in the loop at al

Who has time for reading? Audio content at least allows you to absorb information while your hands and eyes can be busy with other things: cleaning, driving, etc. Besides, teaching videos and also books often share a common weakness: low in

Depends on the country; US, probably not. Many european countries, probably yes. Asia? Your gov will ask you why you would bother them with a stupid and meaningless question like that in the first place.

at least they are honest? Also "thanks for the tape backup idea anyway"

Ad hominem right out of the gate? Really?

This sounds like their medicine might be worse than what they're currently doing...

A reminder: if the AI is doing all the work you demand of it correctly on this abstraction level, you are no longer needed in the loop.

I've used AI assitance in coding for a year before I quit. The hardest part was a day when the services where unexpectedly down, and working felt like I was amputated in some way. Nothing works, my usual movement does not produce code.

I don't understand this view (although I hear it often enough): isn't it commonly accepted that the brain and its resulting mind is extremy modular, with all components (trying to) play together?

But it's an interpretation of what's happening with ZorinOS - isn't that original content?

by rf15 11mo ago
It's not gonna happen like that, because all the paths leading to it cannot be financially exploited. Also what a shortsighted scifi book, yet techies readily invest in that particular fantasy because it's not your usual spaceship

You would still need to provide extra logic/data to do dispersion/refraction curves for materials, it's hardly "for free"
