Problem is that AI didn’t present as a “genre” and you get AI slop across the gamut.

I started a video because the title seemed like something I was interested in and the thumbnail seemed fine. Then within the first few seconds it was obviously lazy ai slop.

Short of limiting yourself to known acceptable channels. You can’t really stave off the AI slop. Some categories get hit less often, but they are all over the place.

Trump is trying to ride Mamdani’s co

My mind completed that a totally different way.

Actually, it probably would have been better for it to get that far, for a medical professional to actually assess her earlier…

Of course now they generally embalm before a wake… So no one is waking up for their wake…

Making sure they are really dead could be done a couple of ways…

Since embalming happens before a wake, I guess someone has “made sure” they are really dead before the wake even begins…

Fun story, my car had a recall for the brake light coming on randomly. After they replaced the part, then the brake light wouldn’t come on at all. Then they made it so the brake light would only sometimes come on. I said screw it and finally fixed it myself. The pedal pushed down on two different things, one to actually operate the brakes, and a separate little button for the electronic brake indication for the lights and for the cruise control to disengage (the cruise control also stayed active even when hitting the brake pedal).

Anyway, they screwed up setting the electronic button and I had to position it correctly in the little bracket, where it gets pressed if the brake pedal barely moves even if it takes a smidge of actual distance to start the real braking.

Hurray, everyone is off the platform. Honestly, that would be for the best…

Yeah, that graph scale is absurd for comparison… I get it, they want to highlight the ‘trend’ but the scale of the US graph is nothing but a neglible slice of the boottom of the China graph, it’s just impossible to intelligently compare the ‘trends’ in that manner…

Also skeptical of a claim of 0.0% for anyone. It looks to me that, by the criteria of the graph, china has managed to effectively tie the US on this sort of metric, and the US has roughly held it flat for the last 30 years.

As others point out, this particular metric may not be a good one, and depending on how you slice the other metrics, either China or US technically comes out ahead, but broadly a more comparable standard of living.

I guess their point is if you exclude the upper half, China has managed to fare better.

Basically if we torture the numbers either side can get them to say whatever that side wants, by cherry picking criteria or excluding certain portions of the population.

Which is frankly a fantastic outcome for China, where in the past there was no way to make the numbers even close, now things are close enough as to each side being able to point out a way of measuring which makes them look better.

But the reason for the expense is largely the weight.

Yes we can at great expense support massive weights. But even in skyscrapers, you aren’t expecting to just cram every floor with equipment that weighs over a ton and supported by less than a square meter of floor.

It’s not just armchair engineering, i work in the industry and commonly you have racks preferring the ground floor and weight restrictions going up and even marked paths that the racks need to stay on when on upper floors due to limitations of the reinforcements.

Skyscrapers are largely impractical structures done for the sake of showing off, with any value based on keeping people close to each other. No one builds a skyscraper by itself miles from anything else. This is where they build the datacenters because they don’t need proximity.

On the flip side, folks have repeatedly shown Trump to be susceptible to being manipulated. Famously flipping back and forth on issues based on who had the most recent pleasant conversation with him.

It’s distasteful, but an opportunity that shouldn’t be skipped. Otherwise only the worst people get their turn at manipulating him.

Yes, also, their excuse for why “they’re eating the pets” was worth hearing out even as it was demonstrably false. Because even if it didn’t exactly happen, it is a reasonable perspective on what “those people” would do…

Someone is going to rationalize it by saying "while it was false, it was “directionally true”, just what the leftists would do so it’s worth thinking about.

Yes, just some people figuring out that Grok was steered toward ass-kissing Musk no matter what, and exploited that for funny output. So the takeaways are:

• Musk is such a loser he insisted on Grok kissing his ass
• LLMs remain stupid and have no idea what they are saying

help explain the relationships in a complicated codebase succinctly

It will offer an explanation, one that sounds consistent, but it’s a crap shoot as to whether or not it accurately described the code, and no easy of knowing of the description is good or bad without reviewing it for yourself.

I do try to use the code review feature, though that can declare bug based on bad assumptions often as well. It’s been wrong more times than it caught something for me.

No, just complete. Whatever the dude does may have nothing to do with what you needed it to do, but it will be “done”

Why he was suddenly “onboard”:

He thought that the Democrats were bluffing, thinking that Trump would veto. With the threat of Trump actually passing, they would get too scared that their sacred cow Clinton getting caught up.

He might have been assured by the DOJ that the files were safe to release (now).

His demand to get investigations going again locks the files back up. An official in an interview basically said as much, that starting investigations would b block “portions of the files” regardless of this bill.

Even if it is someone you actively wanted, the reaction should be to feel betrayed by then falling to love up to your standards, not to try to rationalize child sex trafficking to preserve your image of the guy.

Also possible, some invented “Epstein files” that add people he doesn’t like.

Well, yes, it’s just interfacing with chatgpt… It’s not packing a big gpu to run a model locally…
