You can either live your life angry that you had to pay for better treatment, or angry that you didn’t get better treatment for free, but only one of those options is more comfortable than the other.

In some airports Clear with precheck raises the chances you’ll be directed into more favorable screening lanes where TSA are more relaxed, due to it being used exclusively by prechecks or crew. Sometimes with just precheck you’ll still get

It’s really not difficult to build sandwiches that won’t require refrigeration and can be packed into a container for consumption on long trips, people just don’t really know how to make them. But it will vastly improve the quality of your

I wonder what chess would be like if it incorporated a fog of war mechanic where you could only see some tiles around each piece, and perhaps rooks could see a straight line all the way down the board.

Look for companies that require transformation of some data from one form to another, from one place, to another. These jobs don’t require any coding of interfaces or even thinking about users. They are jobs where you write code that create

No. The point isn’t that homeless kill people, it’s that homeless and drug addicts create environments where people are more likely to be killed, by anyone.

You certainly won’t regret it. If you need to get information out of your wife and she won’t cooperate you can coerce the LLM of your wife into having it divulge private information that your wife won’t reveal. This can be very useful for s

Reminds me of how we used to play board games to pass the time while sailing ships in Ultima Online. Just simple dragging of pieces along a board without restrictions.

Your premise is the illusion of things are the same as the actual things. Not sure what else I can really say about that. They are not the same.

I’ll give you an example to think about in human terms. In political discussions, a lot of humans don’t really know what the fuck they’re talking about, but they do know what to say in response to certain stimulus. They know the talking p

Yes, but I think this was a fairly obvious conclusion to imagine isn’t it. If you were going to seriously consider using ChatGPT for AI in a game, you would need each instance of GPT to only know certain information it has gathered. And you

That is not a counter argument. GPT creates the illusion of something that knows things, it doesn’t actually know anything. It turns out if you had a super power where you always knew how to pick the next best word for a sentence, you could

The problem is a bit like climate change. If everyone is paying these prices, the prices will just keep going up. People just have to stop, but they won’t. You can think of markets as pricing engines, and prices will rise up to what the mar

You don’t need to eat those specific things, there are other things to eat. Even cheaper things. Rice has always been very cheap per serving. Beans as well. Just as filling.

Yes food is a great example. People will pay upwards of $20-$25 to have one meal made and delivered to their home, when really the total cost of the meal is probably a couple bucks. And then people insist on buying expensive processed crap,
