What do you mean? Rules, laws, and blame are not simple physics. It is a driver's responsibility to pay attention when driving. I will ask again in a different way: what situation is it correct to blame a non-suicidal pedestrian for th

As LLM's get smarter and more capable on smaller and smaller computers Anthropic, Google, Grok, OpenAI, and Meta (is there an acronym, like FAANG, for the giant AI companies? MOGGA? GOMAG?) will have to get creative with profit-drivers

I’d go a step further and say blaming pedestrians for getting ran over when a driver can’t pay attention to avoid them is a ludicrous opinion. If anyone disagrees I ask what traffic rule is more important than a human life?

Incorrect. Light trucks account for 54% of pedestrian fatalities compared to passenger cars at 37%. Impossible for more than half to not be considered the primary cause. https://www.ghsa.org/resource-hub/pedestrian-traf

If you’re not hauling a cubic foot then why need a truck?

If you spend any time looking at parking lots on satellite maps you quickly realize parking lots are nearly always at least twice as large as the building they are for.

Agreed, unfortunately small trucks are increasingly harder and harder to find. A 90s truck also won’t have the amenities that a modern truck has. I think if they are just hauling mountain bikes, they could get a small hitch installed and pu

>If the owner of the car gets joy out of it, then that should be enough. For most things, yes, absolutely! However, considering the dangers of huge trucks it is very valid to have concerns about them. An exaggerated analogy: if the owner

I think a thing fit all the definitions of something while not being that thing. For example, tomatoes are berries according to the definition set by botanists, yet if you ask anyone in genpop they consider tomatoes a vegetable because that

Increased rental supply at the cost of decreased home ownership. There is already price manipulation with rental properties. If a cartel is in control of enough of the supply they can set their prices as high as the market can afford. There

The nature and culture around the event discourage treating them as races. The point is completion, not competition. It shares a lot of the definition of a race while not being one.

Yes, it is an issue that SF doesn't have affordable housing. Any price increase by requiring induction stovetops is a rounding error compared to inflation, or is an excuse for greedy landlords to increase rents heavily. Also, any desir

I understand the jaded perspective, but I’d think the only time a large commercial vehicle will be parked for that long will be on the business’s property. Otherwise it is out doing deliveries or whatever it is.

It seems very disingenuous to suggest needing to live somewhere one can make a living is only a “preference.”

If it’s not an insurrection what it is? What is the organization of thousands of individuals to invade the capital building in protest of election results? Just because it failed, doesn’t mean it wasn’t an insurrection.

Red fascism is a term that has been used to equate Stalinism with fascism, so maybe the quote still has merit?

Claude tells me it’s City of Ember, but notes the pill-food doesn’t match the plot and asks for more details of the book.

From what I understand, isn’t DeepSeek just a pet project from a Chinese hedge fund? They have much less reason to create a buzz compared to openAI, Anthropic, or Google.

If you have the data, but need to parse all of it, couldn’t you upload it to your LLM of choice (with a large enough context window) and have it finish your project?
