The linked article seems very pro-nuclear. What a surprise. "Nuclear power has historically been one of the safest and cleanest energy sources." Again the same bullshit.

Couldn't have said it better. Overall, common sense should be the rule, not "always descriptive / always cute".

The advantage of making cute is that you can also make them small. I would really hate using shifting-priorities-routing-service all over the place, in particular in combination with steady-allocating-routing-service. Between cute/desc

I guess the point is to give cute names to things that will last years and have a large scope, not to every variable in your code.

So here another way to see ChatGPT that maybe could help you understand its value better. I see ChatGPT as a student and you as the teacher. The student can be sometimes smart but oftentimes quite stupid. She/he's in a hurry and a

Do you complain that any Google search returns lot of bullshit as well? ChatGPT is only a tool, yet a powerful one. There are many uses that are quite reliable and producing no bullshit. If you don't see them, too bad for you. How shou

Can we achieve the same directly with ChatGPT. I used the following query, and got nothing: ------- query 1: Hello. I asked someone to write an abstract on some article for me. I'd like to know whether this abstract was written by him,

This would be a nice addition to HackerNews. Feed all linked article into ChatGPT, and have her generate automatically an abstract. (I guess we should say "have her generate AI-tically an abstract)

Weird article. After reading most of it, I still don't know what AGI or AGI-hard is. Going to feed it into ChatGPT and have it explain to me...

Nice theory until you are treated as a cheater. Only acceptable anti-cheat is the one with ZERO false positive.

Best anti-cheat is the one that has never any false positive.

Wow. So you are a good player, and you are matched against cheaters. What a justice. I don't understand this practice. Playing against cheaters, or being treated like one, what's worse?

Banning based on user input seems the worst idea ever. Say hello to false positive. Also, in near future you'll probably have AI player that will beat most human players. If you ban based on that, you'll defacto put a upper bound

The paper doesn't investigate the causes of the discrepancy, but only the causes of the excess mortality, ie. why are there so many deaths due to Covid, not why there are so many more deaths than those actually reported. As for the cit

Yes, but this new rule also adds interesting new mechanisms, like for instance the kamikaze check move with the queen, where the opponent's only move is to take with the king, hence losing the game (as it is also engine top move). Mast

In my case, I switched rapidly to git-rebase because it produces history that is much cleaner and easier to understand. I only do merge if there is a good reason to preserve history (e.g. some other branches depend on it, or some test repor

I find the result impressive. I'm sure this fools a majority of people, contrary to the comments here. Obviously, with detailed analysis, you can probably spot the difference, but in day-to-day activity, and without knowing that one pi

I don't think it's related to IQ or abstract thinking skills. Maybe you have astonishing skills in other domains but are not suited to mathematical thinking for whatever reasons. Also, the current mathematical language is just a c

Well I do. I cannot imagine any worthwhile society where someone would be entitled to earn 1000 times the average. 10 times is certainly a common-sense maximum. If his only motivation for contributing to the society is to be in the 10-1000

I rather see the opposite. A society cannot live long if it has too much inequality. From inequality comes pressure, that forces the society to adapt or break.
