We didn’t start the current!

So we decide to ride it

Since we can not fight it

Just because Wikipedia offers a list of references doesn’t mean that those references reflect what knowledge is actually out there. Wikipedia is trying to be academically rigorous without any of the real work. A big part of doing academic research is reading articles and studies that are wrong or which prove the null hypothesis. That’s why we need experts and not just an AI to regurgitate information. Wikipedia is useful if people understand it’s limitations, I think a lot of people don’t though.

Yeah I think this is definitely a case of rose colored glasses. I absolutely miss the way the internet was 25 years ago but I also do not miss randomly browsing and running across child pornography, I don’t miss every kilobyte being measured to make sure I don’t over use the network, I don’t miss having to have multiple browsers just because a website was written for Netscape and not Explorer, or pop-up adds, viruses, and everything else you mentioned.

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

Is Hamas even still a thing? Like as far as I can tell from my armchair halfway around the world they’re basically all dead. It seems to me like Hamas has been thoroughly defeated. Gaza is a wasteland and at this point I would be surprised if Hamas could muster up any type of action.

In practice you’re right, and I’m not going to even try to argue the real life consequences AI has caused. However I disagree that AI doesn’t have any place in the education system. Used on the appropriate problems, AI is a tool that makes a few things which were challenging to compute much easier. One example is large AI models folding proteins for medical research. A problem that took a computer a day or more to solve can be solved in hours on the same equipment using AI software. That’s just one application that admittedly isn’t useful to school aged children but it’s still one useful example of AI. There are others. Students should be taught how to use AI properly, and part of that is teaching them what it’s good at and what it’ll never be able to do.

The part I get angry about is disgusting Tech Bro Billionaires trying to shove AI into every piece of software they can. Just like the block chain they’re over promising and there’s a bubble. Unlike block chain technology AI actually has a few useful applications and because of that it’ll take a lot longer that BitCoin to finally level out.

Was that Kill Dash Nine? Great song

I see nothing wrong with this.

I wonder at what price point it becomes worth it to buy his swasticars and chop them up for parts. That’s assuming that the parts aren’t so poorly made that no one would want them. I have some nifty ideas for a battery pack that big, which would probably burn down my house.

This happens every time I sit down. I could enjoy watching Jeopardy or I could get some extra work done so tomorrow isn’t as much of a cluster fuck as today has been. A moment’s rest is a moment wasted.

No, justice should be blind. However those hurt most from the guilty parties actions also deserve to have their voices heard in court. Hot take, victim impact statements should come after the sentence is delivered. Depending on a whole lot of stuff, which I am not smart enough to figure out. Lawyers and judges should probably do that. Perhaps it is in other countries VISs are?

People are way to eager to be aggressive/mock other people when they get the chance instead of considering that the other person might A) just have a different opinion or B) they misunderstood something.

That’s interesting that you’re accusing everyone of acting that way because I thought that’s how you were acting. Maybe you should take a step back and see that you’re calling the kettle black.

Y’arrr ye old salt!

TrueNAS. It’s free, has a larger app store than UNRAID and has a much more mature deployment of ZFS.

Then you might not want windows cause Windows forces updates on you whether you want them or not and break things. Linux will happily wait for you to forget for so long it breaks because the target API doesn’t accept your old ass code anymore. At least in Linux as long as I don’t forget I’m good. I sometimes forget

Right?! Hydric acid inside the body can do so crazy things. Like hydric acid has protons that it wants to hold onto, but sometimes can’t. When it releases that proton it’s is now a free radical in your body. It gets pretty complicated but it’s crazy.

The engineer: The glass is two times bigger than it needs to be.

Yeah the movie really didn’t do the book much justice. The message was the same, but the movie completely undermined itself. Saying ‘Real life is more important than the digital world because it’s where real connections and food is.’ doesn’t hit as hard when it’s the very fact that it was Wade’s obsession with the digital world and having encyclopedic knowledge of Halliday that allowed him to win. The book is still clunky but it’s Wade’s actions in the real world that really set’s him apart from the sixers and gunters.

Wow what a great idea, I wonder why nobody else has ever thought about it.
