- Comment on Most Americans think AI won’t improve their lives, survey says 12 hours ago:
Mayne pedantic, but:
Everyone seems to think CEOs are the problem. They are not. They report to and get broad instruction from the board. The board can fire the CEO. If you got rid of a CEO, the board will just hire a replacement.

Whoa I never considered AI inbreeding as a death for AI 🤔
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Why is the village depopulated, if there’s a huge industrial zone nearby presumably with lots of employees? I was thinking workers might want to buy or rent low cost housing near their workplace if the land is zoned for it and you could get electric and a well. But if they’re not buying in the village, might not be a great idea unless there’s something wrong or lacking with available properties in the village.

Why don’t I just Google. It’s the same data after all.

If you feel these solutions can replace the marketing team, your marketing team wasn’t very effective to begin with.

- Comment on Could a US state prevent its citizens from paying federal taxes? 5 weeks ago:
Maybe. But the biggest employers are national if not international. They’re gonna withhold federal tax.
- Comment on Could a US state prevent its citizens from paying federal taxes? 1 month ago:
No, businesses directly pay the federal government. More insidiously, it’s impossible to opt out if you’re employed full time; you have to be self employed to get to decide when/if/how much tax you send the federal government.
- Comment on France runs fusion reactor for record 22 minutes 1 month ago:
The idea is to have water or molten salt cool the walls of the torus from outside, and those drive ordinary turbines like any other generator. The main issue is that particles fly out of the confined plasma donut and degrade the walls, whose dust flys into the plasma and reduces the fusion efficiency. They’re focusing on the hard part - dealing with the health of plasma sustainment and the durability of the confinement walls over time. Hot thing that stays hot can boil water or salt to drive regular turbines, that’s not the main engineering challenge.
- Comment on I'm just like some ordinary dude upset about what the government is doing. Doesn't anyone with any sort of means or influence care? Where are those guys? 1 month ago:
In this case, it is. The Republican candidate actually won the overall popular vote. Was this because of voter apathy? Probably. But we’re talking about “what the people who cared enough to vote” wanted.
- Comment on I'm just like some ordinary dude upset about what the government is doing. Doesn't anyone with any sort of means or influence care? Where are those guys? 1 month ago:
Technically speaking, you’re looking at what most voters thought they wanted. Seems like the people with the most means and influence are in favor of what’s happening too.
Are most voters easily conned? Sure. The NSDAP won its early seats freely until the other parties were outlawed.
You can at least take solace in that with the deconstruction of federal institutions, your state government and state institutions wield comparatively more power. Don’t live in a poor and/or conservative state I guess?

Lol have you not used o1/o3? They show the inner monologue too. Fun little pretend detail to keep you entertained while the model takes 30 seconds to respond.
- Comment on New York state bans DeepSeek from government devices 1 month ago:
Uh…no it’s about the same, maybe slightly dumber than o3. Which is already mediocre.
- Comment on New York state bans DeepSeek from government devices 1 month ago:
I see Tiktok in the news, never downloaded it. Does that make me special?
- Comment on New York state bans DeepSeek from government devices 1 month ago:
I don’t get it. Why would DeepSeek supposedly get more downloads from the app store? It’s not like it’s any more interesting to consumers than other LLM apps. It was just notable for purportedly being cheaper to train. Something seems fishy.
- Comment on What do you think of anarchism? 1 month ago:
It’s not so hard to understand. Let’s try.
ISIS wants your stuff. But, your government stops them from taking your stuff. Uh oh, the government is gone. Now ISIS shows up, and they take your stuff.
- Comment on What do you think of anarchism? 1 month ago:
How did gangs take control of Haiti? How did warlords take control of Somalia? I guess those governments just decided to dissolve and hand over their monopolies on violence to other groups.
- Comment on What do you think of anarchism? 1 month ago:
I think there’s a reason anarchists aren’t migrating in droves to anarchies like Haiti or Somalia.

Oh yeah, I read about that! Not really ML, but pretty much what I’d like more games to have.

No no no, they have it all wrong. We should be ordering clones by the thousand from Kamino to fight the separarists.
- Comment on Are any games using neural networks for better hard AI that doesn't cheat? 5 months ago:
Oh that’s really interesting; I hadn’t considered racing games as a genre to benefit from this type of machine learning. I guess I figured there’s not so much to AI there that it’s necessary, at least when we already know the “ideal lap line” for cars to follow, but yeah it gets a lot harder when considering other drivers on the track and a huge array of unique car models with their own handling and performance characteristics.
- Comment on Are any games using neural networks for better hard AI that doesn't cheat? 5 months ago:
I wouldnt mind an AI using unorthodox strategies, but yeah that’s a good point thst fine tuning it ti be fun is a big challenge. Speaking if “non-player-like behavior”, I wonder if AI could be used to find multiplayer exploits sooner, though the problem there is you don’t really have much training data besides QA and playtesters before a full release.

I’m not into fighting games, but that’s pretty neat! I hope the industry follows suit if people like how it works in Street Fighter 6.

I don’t think the new strategy of injecting ads directly into the video stream can be defeated in realtime though. It’s like how you cannot defeat tv ads…you can blank the screen, or record and restitch without the ads, but the content itself has the ad. YouTube is a bit different where you can theoretically skip ahead, but your device has to tell Youtube that it wants to skip ahead in order to actually even get the video content, and youtube can look at request timestamps to know you didn’t see the whole injected ad and just re-inject it in the video stream.
