Can you imagine what you're suggesting for a Linux machine? It's absurd. My box my rules, I'll run any damn code I please.

ASSERTING the list is sorted as an assumption is significantly different form VERIFYING that the list is sorted before executing the search. Moreover, type systems can track that a list was previously sorted and maintained it's sorted

Any budget proposal that cuts Medicare or social security is dead in the water and it's ridiculous for any group to even consider it. Not only would it be political suicide but it would also literally kill people.

What action would you like? In this case everyone says it was likely a rare disease and not sepsis. Like, I'm sorry that this is and will be the reality of healthcare for the rest of our lives, if you have a rare thing pop up that can

We don't know. It's probably a combo of genetic factors and bacteria. It's at the very least complicated and multifaceted, because you can't just take a culture or biopsy of inflamed skin and say "A ha! This is clea

Single payer absolutely does something it's insane you would suggest otherwise. It's a basic counting argument: if 60 out of 100 are paying into the system but we have to pay ER fees for the other 40 not paying, then there is an u

The earth is not flat. This is indisputable fact. Yet, much ink has been spilt on arguments to the contrary. Refuting some of these arguments is quite difficult, honestly, but none of the arguments really matter because they reject all the

It's irony not an argument. From people that refuse to acknowledge that gun laws need to be changed and have a brain rot interpretation of the 2nd amendment in an age where a supreme Court is treating the document more like guidelines.

It's not an unreasonable request to ask for one example of a trend. It's unreasonable to make a claim with no evidence.

Except you can enforce this rule some of the time. People discover that AI was used or suspect it all the time, and people admit to it after some pressure all the time. Not every time, but sometimes. The threat of being caught isn't

Proof assistant code is high reliability, there is no room to fudge it. This is perhaps the one place where you can really see how bad LLMs are when you care about reliability.

Slippery Slope is a logical fallacy. This is an undeniable fact. There is no syllogistic, propositional, predicate, or type theoretic argument you can make that uses a slippery slope to derive a theorem. Of course, we are not doing proper l

No, LLMs are not an "abstraction" like a compiler is. This is bullshit. LLMs are stochastic token generators. I have NEVER met someone in real life that has produced something I wouldn't throw in the trash using LLMs, and I h

The slippery slope is in banning speech. If you want to make the claim that simulated sex leads to crimes we have been over this a thousand times with violence in games. There is no connection, you are without a leg to stand on except your
