ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder, it’s not something you can gain, it’s a defect that happens from birth or during development. It’s a physical difference in the brain.

The LOE stuff is the dumbest shit possible I’ve ever heard for data centers I swear to God. Who the hell comes up with these ideas 😭 space is such a difficult environment to work in, absolutely not suited for data centers. You barely get any benefit out of it at all, just somewhat more efficient solar panels that could have been worked around by having more down on earth

There is no conflict necessary for its purpose, whereas a typical story usually does. So, in a sense, a pornography is a “cooperative” story

Well, the downside of that is that it’s insular, you lose the opportunity of meeting new people

And sure, not everyone cares about doing that a lot of the time, but for me personally that’s a great loss at least. I love meeting new people, and everyone being priced out of existing in social meeting places… sucks. A lot

The more performant the chips, the more you can downclock them (or the faster they finish their tasks), the less battery they use

It should in theory be good for battery life

I’d like to propose that it’s not an erotic angle, but a romantic one!

I know for many it’s probably the same thing, but to me there’s a clear difference between a close friend who you also have sex with and a romantic partner

Recently I was in a car trip in Europe using an electric vehicle, and every time we had to stop for charging (which was like 4 times total for what would have been 1000km or so in total) the car basically ended up having to wait for us as we were still eating while the car was mostly done charging

Charging times are literally a non-issue. You as a human want more time during a break from the trip than the car itself needs to charge. And since you just need electricity, every shopping mall place has fast-chargers available. You don’t need to go to any bespoke place like a gas station, you just charge at a place you already wanna be at anyway

Vegetable oil is not transfats what are you on about??

I had a class where we did a similar thing, except it was re-inmplementing basic forms of internet and transport protocols on top of the link layer

And it was a really really fun class imo, no sarcasm

No, it’s a joke, intentional bastardization of the term “sweety” to make it sillier

It’s intentional

I know computability theory, and I am very familiar with the halting problem. A human cannot solve it either. We made literal mathematical proof of it, and that proof is the halting problem.

The entire point of the halting problem is that if you assume that there is a black box that can answer whether a program halts, you then prove it can’t be the case by a proof of contradiction. You can replace the black box with a human brain and it works just as well, that’s the entire point of a black box.

There’s nothing that indicates the human brain has super-turing computation

Except it’s not comparable because we literally have general/true intelligence right now… it’s just not artificial. There is no radical breakthrough needed. We know it’s possible. We just don’t know how.

Teleportation is not possible as far as we know, and backwards time travel isn’t either. That’s not comparable to true intelligence, which already exists, just not artificially.

Yes, the way the system works is that short-term success is prioritized above everything else. Because if you don’t prioritize the short term, and someone else will, you’ll lose out to them.

Sure, the one who prioritizes the short term will get fucked in the long term, but that doesn’t matter, because they were the short term successful ones, and the one that went long term is now out of business or a much smaller player.

Those other things aren’t the bubble though, the bubble is about generative AI, not other machine learning methods

This was a 3 months old comment…

But cars freak me out…

The only reason I walk around them is because I have to, not because I want to

This bubble sure

But our long-term prospect as a civilization…? Much less certain. If systems don’t get replaced by something that works we will end up in an overconsumed climate ravaged neofeudualist cyberpunk style hellscape

Everyone is a cog in the dang machine. That’s why people criticize capitalism as a system so much

And it’s going to be our downfall
