Bureaucrats will write rules. No need to follow them. Why can a jumped up idiot determine what's right or wrong?

If you have a piece of equipment or property that someone else wants to use, this is called rent - you can rent it to another, or not. It is not tax, which is forcibly extracted. What you call consolidation is perfectly natural. It occurs

I know you don't follow my thought - that's fine. The issue, imo, is something of a lack of imagination. People in general see the government as a good thing, rather than a wealth extraction method that people buy into. It has no

I agree. The issue with doubting ancient temperatures, is that one has no faith in the predictions of science for the present, as this is the basis/metric in use.

Why are movies given tax breaks at all, is the question.

Whatever the AI is doing is fine, but everyone should be able to see what filters are being applied. This should be accessible information. To not know how information is being managed, for that too be a secret is terrible.

All these ai models make it nice and clear that they severely edit their responses. In case there was any question that they were providing unfiltered information. It's like going to the BBC or CNN for information - there are strong

I like the quote, but except this bit which is terrible, and undermines it all: > Yet it is admirable to profess because it was once admirable to live. Living is still admirable. Professing without living is just so many words.

We should make trees persons too, and animals, and ai, then as they pay taxes it'll decrease the tax burden on people, right?

Anthropomorphising machines is a thing! I don't know why we do it frankly - when there are real humans one can talk to, rather than pretending one is having a meaningful exchange with a website or advert.

The world is a lie box. Gpt is a new and surprising iteration, which takes up a lot of the legwork out of the nonsense generation business.

But now we can get our myths and rumours from gpt, right? And if it can't find them, it will make them up!

I would post an image analysis - but the images on that site make it hard to compare before and after photos, not to mention that you can't post images here. The before pic, needs to be flipped to compare to the after pic. The before p

It does not say that in the article - this one and on a previous HN submission where I read about this. However, you are right - if you go to Tutorials and Scanning there is reference to the creation of a 'campfire scroll'. And n

I think this suggestion of mine was downvoted last time too, but I don't get why! One would always want to test stuff in software development, especially if it was fraught and can easily be tested. Mostly there are no tests to be under

I still think this methodology can be tested by creating equivalent carbonised scrolls, where you write some specific text and check the result against what you wrote. Ie you run your test artifacts through the scanner and software, and th

Living in Europe as I do, I have to say that the north European, rule-bound mindset, and it's almost universal acceptance of government, makes it a more soulless place to be. The things I like, wonky streets, eccentricities, unsanction

Even if you resolve fraud, you still fail to resolve the driver of the fraud, which is money. There are basically 3 sources of funding for universities - government, military, corporations. These 3 have aligned interests. Where their inte
