It’s way worse on C and it’s family. I still have nightmares with undocumented embedded dependencies that are so intertwined with the codebase that make JS look like a godsend.

I think the Butlerian Jihad can’t do shit against Judgment Day.

Windows startup repair did unbrick my system a couple of times, and the network troubleshooter fixes the issues most of the time, so yes they have.

Linux wanted to be different than Windows and give the user total control. If the user wants to nuke their entire computer, they should be able to.

but a few JS-blocking users have complained about having a barebones experience.

Well no shit, have they ever wondered why the language was created in the first place?

Now we just need to invent a way to read the Void of Nothingness to retrieve the data and bam! Infinite storage.

I’ve seen it, and it looks quite nice. Might give it a try if I ever get into game making. But some project that want to harness the full power of systems like Lumen, Niagara, Megascans, etc, don’t have much of an alternative.

Unfortunately, for some projects, there just aren’t as many options available right now, at least none that I know of.

No need to be sorry, I am well aware I can be wrong, and I prefer to learn something new than being bashed for being wrong.

Maybe I phrased it in a way different than I thought about it. I didn’t mean to claim that Shannon-Fano or Huffman are THE most efficient ways of doing it, but rather that comparing it to the massive overhead of running a LLM to compress a file, the current methods are way more resource efficient, even one as obsolete as Shannon-Fano codes.

I should probably have mentioned an algorithm like LZMA, or gzip, like you did.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t algorithms like Huffman or even Shannon-Fano code with blocks already pack the files as efficiently as possible? It’s impossible to compress a file beyond it’s entropy, and those algorithms get pretty damn close to it.

Well, we know that the simple fact of observing an event changes it (see the Double Slit experiment), so consciousness has to have some kind of link to reality itself, no?

We currently do not know what consciousness even is exactly, and we know only about the human consciousness, but there can be other degrees of consciousness within other particles in the universe.

And even if current-day experiments disprove something, that doesn’t mean it will in the future, just like before Einstein’s laws of relativity proved that gravity bends spacetime and that it is relative according to the point of observation.

And I’m sure people that study neuroscience ask this same question from time to time. It’s a scientist’s duty to find the factual truth about things, even if they disprove everything they know so far. We can’t rule out something as impossible just because we haven’t observed it yet, as it would directly contradict the scientific method, and therefore cease to be science.

It was on a relatively isolated part of Nigeria, but it was a somewhat modern village. Since then I’ve left the continent and haven’t looked back, but last time I checked, the place was left in ruins.

There is a mobile app called Artemis that works well, and has recently opened it’s beta to the public, go check it out at @ArtemisApp.

So, a few years back, probably a bit more than a decade, there was one hell of a conflict on the village I lived, with gangs every corner and tensions rising. The police didn’t do shit and crime was through the roof. One day, one of the gang leaders was murdered and a whole war between the gangs developed. And instead of fucking helping, the government decided to isolate the place, no one in and no one out, fuck the civilians. A week into this war, explosives were used to destroy buildings and spread chaos, both from the gangs and military alike. Me and my family hid wherever we could, but it was never enough to be safe for a long period of time. Three of my family members died during the first week, trying to find food. Then the military decided to make an assault with everything they had and raided the entire place. Me, and everyone else, ran for our lives or hid on any building they could. I hid on a small house, but it was not built using the best of materials, and it collapsed over me due to a bomb detonating nearby. I woke up on a hospital about a month later with a broken leg.

What in the name of fuck did I just watch lol

As many works and studies about morality and ethics as possible, because god knows we threw those out the window long ago, and it’s biting our asses now. I’d also add an emphasis on John Rawls’ works, particularly “Justice as Fairness: Political not Metaphysical” and “A Theory of Justice”.
