TL;DR: If fentanyl could be evenly dispersed in cocaine at a tiny percentage of the weight, there’s a theoretical reason for a dealer to add it. However, it’s likely rare and more often accidental. I agree with kstrauser—most cases of fenta

Surely it would depend on what the simulation actually was? If you imagine simulations we can build ourselves, such as video games, it's not hard to add something at the edge of the map that users are prevented from reaching and have t

What's important, and I don't think has ever been revealed by OpenAI, is what the margin is on actual use of the models. If they're losing money but just because they're investing billions in R&D, while only spending

They linked to the same video, but to a specific timestamp within it - by adding ' ?t=325 ' to the URL, which tells Youtube to play the video from 5m25s rather than from the beginning.

Are you responding to the headline and saying that buying drugs through Tor is nothing new, or have you read the article and are aware of these methods of, for example, using dead drops common in other countries? I know quite a few people w

Fair enough - I elaborated here [1] on why it's by far the better option for me, but I completely accept that different people have different priorities and different weightings to the pros/cons, so whatever works best for you is

For me personally, taking into account whether or not a plane had power outlets is the overthinking option. I've been on planes / trains / coaches that are expected to have them, but who had faulty outlets at my seat for that

There can still be things to be done, just not always. For example had NATO countries all offered 50% of their GDP for the next decade as gifts to Russia in return for Putin calling all his troops out of Ukraine, it's very likely he wo

Caring about seat size makes sense, but power outlets - for $30 you can get a good quality battery that will charge a mobile phone multiple times from its capacity, for $100 you can get one that'll fully recharge a laptop once or twice
