Yeah. Sorry to say it, but I read someone talking about how pretty much the only intellectuals, socialists, LGBT+ folk or minorities that survived the Reich were the ones that got out early.

I think they meant to call the unsuccessful grifting suckers sheep dogs. In Andrew Tate world, the word for it is “sigma male”.

Luna did not reach the decision entirely unprompted. Conversation logs between the lab and Luna show that the agent had created an attendance policy but later lost track of it, allowing the employee’s lateness to continue for months. Andon Labs eventually asked Luna to search her memory for its policies and assess whether the worker was still a good fit.

Luna agreed that the employee should be let go.

Petersson added. “But what we’ve seen in this experiment is not that the AI would be more ruthless or be worse for the employee in that decision.”

No, what we’ve seen is the LLM not actually doing the managing, and just agreeing with a human prompting it.

LLMs are excellent at agreeing with the people promting them.

I have no idea whether $100k is a sensible budget for starting a store, but they note that it isn’t profitable.

Batteries are far heavier. There’s going to be as many motors are there are propellers, it really doesn’t make sense to do otherwise.

Well, in particular, my Mum was cremated as per her wishes, and that’s what my Dad plans too, but I don’t begrudge the coffin or the cars - none of us were in a fit state to drive and we weren’t about to shove her in the incinerator in a body bag out from someone’s boot. I don’t know what else you wanted us to do instead. She has a little stone in the kerb lining the path to the crematorium, because we didn’t want there to be nothing physical left after we scattered her ashes. The funeral directors were very good at their job, very useful to have around, and a great help on a difficult day. All your contempt for having a ceremony and making an event out of it, by contrast, not so helpful. If you ever meet anyone on real life who’s grieving, please don’t talk to them like you vent online.

Yup.

Fun fact: 1 mph = 1.6 km/h, so if your speeds 16, 32, 64,128 were in km/h, you’d have 10, 20, 40 and 80mph.

Everyone gets together for an event that’s seen as important, comforting things are said, then everyone goes and eats together and tells each other stories about the person they lost. Seems like a great way to go about it to me.

I heard a bunch of right wing criticism of The Force Awakens, and it was mainly “A WOMAN AND A BLACK MAN? HOW CAN I EVEN CONCENTRATE ON THE FILM WHEN THEY’RE INSULTING ME WITH A BLACK MAN AND A WOMAN, IT’S SO FALSE AND FAKE.”

So yeah, pretty racist and misogynist.

Are you 12?

Username does not check out.

I think you have oversimplified somewhat.

You don’t think Israel has a teensy bit put by for a rainy day? I do. You don’t think Israel has a domestic arms industry? I think they export a great deal. You don’t think there are other suppliers than the USA willing to sell arms to an aggressor? I do. You don’t think electing trump is the worst thing America could have done for the people of Gaza? I do.

apologies if not American

Thank you.

Trump can’t bear the fact that Biden beat him. It really gets to him like few other things do.

Of course he also hates it when people ask him why the other half of the Epstein files aren’t getting released.

If Netanyahu just says nope to Trump’s peace plan, why would he say yes to Biden’s?

And Reagan didn’t achieve shit - Israel carried on building in the occupied territories regardless, and they only abandoned their war in Lebanon because it was going badly. Reagan did telephone the Israeli prime minister but the Israeli cabinet had already voted to stop the campaign that day, but of course Reagan wanted to take credit for that and announced how stern he was on the phone and the American news outlets of course delighted in fluff pieces praising the president for stopping the war. But that’s all it was. Fluff.

So, no, your “American president can stop Israeli wars with one phone call” is BS,

Two dozen centimetres is nearly 9.5 inches.

And in one case removing some art to be preserved in an art gallery was expensive. You can’t blame both overreactions on Banksy.

I’m not going to be able to help you with that one I’m afraid.

In theory, maybe. Yet in the real world, enough foreskin to interfere with the flow makes for a smoother flow with no spraying.

Sounds a bit like childcare being work to me.
