This might sound weird but I have a Coldplay fetish. That can’t go wrong right?

Are you differentiating between AI Interpolation and just simply AI? It feels like people saying it’s AI you push back on.

- Comment on Microsoft mandates a return to office, 3 days per week 5 days ago:
What you just described was a horribly inefficient use of resources. You gained insight through idle banter. While everyone is in office that’s what middle managers would tend to handle. All this time they thought they were herding cats, turns out the cats just wanted to be home. Now people don’t know who to go to because the “yes” person isn’t in a cubicle you can just waltz over to. Middle management needs a massive paradigm shift if they want to stay relevant in a WFH situation. And that seems increasingly likely to be the direction businesses will go once they cut staff with these asinine RTO policies.
- Comment on MIT Study Finds AI Use Reprograms the Brain, Leading to Cognitive Decline 1 week ago:
A constant refrain I’ve found myself using with a Facebook “friend” is “you lack the ability to even understand why you are wrong”. Like I’m convinced he actually thinks anecdotal stories carry as much weight as troves of data proving him wrong.
- Comment on how good are you at lying during job interviews? 2 weeks ago:
Was being interviewed by a few people at a company. I asked about hours, and they essentially said, “Being a salaried position, it would be the standard 40 hours, but we like to usually work 45-50 a week.” I think they might have heard my brain mentally slamming the door on them so fucking hard cause there were some of those awkward looks.
- Comment on Melania Trump launches AI contest for schoolchidren in grades K-12 2 weeks ago:
I think if trump dies before declaring an heir to the throne close enough to election time the power vacuum could reach critical mass. Just his death will certainly create a vacuum. The election will spur the sycophants into a frenzy to take his place. But separately it might not be catastrophic. Together in imagining all the ugliness that trump brought to politics but without his Teflon sheen to avoid and ignore all consequences.

Which begs the question, what happens to the estranged particle that escapes the black hole from hawking radiation.

Wouldn’t the hawking radiation need to be a higher rate than the black hole is absorbing matter?

Is the recommendation really quarterly? I’ve usually done twice a year but might have to step out up.
- Comment on Does putting clothes in the closet protect them from dust, or is the dust in there too? 5 weeks ago:
And it can fairly easily carry on the air. So if air flow can get there, so can dust.

A lot of people in here saying don’t do it because you might change your mind. They never seem to apply that logic the other direction. There’s lots of parents out there that had kids and only then realized they didn’t want the whole deal. And worse for them, society has driven a nauseating culture of parental worship and idolatry. It makes it impossible to come to grips with that realization. Parents are supposed to unconditionally love and champion their child and constantly profess how thankful they are and how gratifying the whole endeavor is. And that’s just with a “normal” child. If you have a kid with a disability or some kind of handicap that makes parenting exponentially harder you still need to profess your thankfulness! You aren’t allowed to not want to be a parent then. That ship has sailed. Anything less than abject subjugation to the identity of being a parent is condemned.
- Comment on OpenAI signs deal with UK to find government uses for its models 1 month ago:
This is probably an area that could massively benefit from AI, but won’t because the oligarchs won’t let it. AI would be great for auditing things like taxes and other filings. But that enigma is where a lot of oligarchs flourish. With a properly implemented AI audit, someone like trump never rises because his fraud would have been detected much sooner and could have been at least slowed if not fully halted. Oligarchs will understand this and make sure it doesn’t negatively impact them.

Fucking hell. I didn’t even know that.

No no. Abrego Garcia clearly had “MS-13” tattooed on his knuckles. That was no photoshop.

Pro-tip. Blame it on the dems. His base would eat that shit up. Doesn’t matter that it makes no sense.

And how does anyone vote for something that’s 99-1 unless you happen to be the first? Some things you should make a principled stand sure, but that’s not this.

This. Drill holes in the bottom of the outside ring and top of the inside ring. Though I’d recommend a much smaller gap if possible. If not possible, adding rock in such a way as to act as baffling would be good too. Metal louvers or ducting might work. The key is to get the air to heat up between the rings so when it exits the inner ring it burns quick and more completely.
- Comment on WhatsApp messaging app banned on all US House of Representatives devices 2 months ago:
I gotta ask, what’s the situation with the senate? It would seem like a colossal lack of communication if the house bans it but the senate doesn’t. Or if the senate already banned it, why the house didn’t then? Didn’t they be relatively on the same page?
- Comment on Tesla In 'Self-Drive Mode' Hit By Train After Turning Onto Train Tracks 2 months ago:
Pretty sure they can tell the method used when disengaging fsd/ap. So they would know if it was manually turned off or if the system lost enough info and shut it down. They should be able to tell within a few seconds if accuracy the order of events. I can’t imagine a scenario that wouldn’t be blatantly obvious where the tesla was able to determine an accident was imminent and shut off fsd/ap wroth enough time to “blame it on the driver”. What might be possible is that the logs show fsd shut off like a millisecond before impact/event and then someone merely reported that fsd was not engaged at the time of the accident. Technically true and tesla lawyers might fight like hell to maintain that theory, but if an independent source is able to review the logs, I don’t see that being a possibility.

- Comment on Odds of rolling a 7 with a weighted die 2 months ago:
That’s if it’s perfectly weighted. If it’s weighted to roll a 6, it might not always land on 6. This would lower the chance of rolling a 7 depending on what the overall probability profile is on the weighted die.
- Comment on Reddit will help advertisers turn ‘positive’ posts into ads 2 months ago:
I specifically look for negative reviews before buying something. I haven’t really put numbers to a ratio of good to bad where I feel reassured about buying something but I’m sure it’s there. If your product has 5000 reviews with no bad ones, something is fucked up. If the majority of the reviews are “the delivery guy spiked the package on my porch and it was broke I’D GIVE ZERO STARS IF I COULD” then that’s a little better. Someone somewhere is going to have a legit grievance. I want to know what that is.
