Are you able to explain succinctly what you mean by “selected” so that we can communicate?
- Comment on Emergent introspective awareness in large language models 1 day ago:
selected
What do you mean by that? What does it mean to “select” something in the context of a neural net with input nodes and output nodes?
the model was planning
How have you come to that conclusion?

LLM limitations like “they only predict the next token” and other things that have already been falsified

- Comment on Surviving Mars: Relaunched arrives November 10 with two expansions planned 2 weeks ago:
This is criminal fleecing. “Our game which you bought was shit so we fixed it, now pay us for it again.” How is it proprietary gamers put up with this shit? They just keep throwing their money at proprietary games publishers even as the publishers are abusing the gamers and laughing all the way to the bank. It’s nuts.
- Comment on Tommy Robinson says Elon Musk is paying his legal costs as trial begins 2 weeks ago:
To “allow” a thing means that some actor has the power to give or deny permission for the thing. There are no actors who have the power to deny permission for there to be billionaires in society. Indeed, billionaires are the category of actors who have more power to give or deny permission than any other category.
- Comment on Tommy Robinson says Elon Musk is paying his legal costs as trial begins 2 weeks ago:
same power
I didn’t comment on scale of impact, only intent.
- Comment on Tommy Robinson says Elon Musk is paying his legal costs as trial begins 2 weeks ago:
Billionaires are allowed to live in society
No, they’re the ones who allow, not the ones who are allowed.
- Comment on Tommy Robinson says Elon Musk is paying his legal costs as trial begins 2 weeks ago:
This is to be expected. You yourself are trying to manipulate society with your comment.
What would be surprising is if billionaires didn’t attempt to manipulate society in their interests.
- Comment on Pubs could stay open until early hours in move to boost UK growth 3 weeks ago:
you dismiss the historical status of pubs as community places by isolating me enjoying it as an individually me thing
Firstly, I haven’t done that. Secondly, this doesn’t make sense.
- Comment on Pubs could stay open until early hours in move to boost UK growth 3 weeks ago:
I do most of my social hangouts at pubs
Ah so the type of place where you hang out is the type of place that “should” be preserved. Now I understand why you think that.
historically it has not been the social centre of UK towns is false
I haven’t said that.
obv don’t go to a pub and take up space without giving them any money
LOL you think you can give me advice
- Comment on Pubs could stay open until early hours in move to boost UK growth 3 weeks ago:
It’s the cornerstone of interacting with your local community in the UK.
No it isn’t. My interactions with my local community never take place in a pub.
- Comment on Pubs could stay open until early hours in move to boost UK growth 3 weeks ago:
it’s a part of British culture that should be preserved
Why?

- Comment on Here's what would happen if the UK abolished landlords overnight 3 weeks ago:
This is a terrible article which seems to be for the purpose of poo-pooing the green Party’s policy in favour of… landlords… the Big Issue… on the side of landlords… WTF?
- Comment on Green leader Zack Polanski backs legalisation of all drugs 3 weeks ago:
Cocaine? Absolutely not. Not that I’m against cocaine, it’s just that people on cocaine are really, really annoying.
So you’re for criminalising alcohol use then?
- Comment on Green leader Zack Polanski backs legalisation of all drugs 3 weeks ago:
not legalisation, I don’t want to be seeing Tesco value acid available behind the counter
Legalisation can mean lots of things, including legalised drugs sales only from specialised pharmacies. This is the kind of approach advocated by legalisation proponents. “Legalisation” doesn’t mean “available in Tesco”.
- Comment on Britain is ‘a terrible place’ to sell medicines, says Pharma corporate executive 1 month ago:
For a lot of the world, certainly in Britain, supplying medicine to people who need it is a very different concept to pharmaceutical companies doing good business.

- Comment on 4chan and Kiwi Farms Sue the UK Over its Age Verification Law 2 months ago:
thus must be bound to those laws
This wrong.
- Comment on 4chan and Kiwi Farms Sue the UK Over its Age Verification Law 2 months ago:
they have an obligation(duty) to uphold British law
Let me get this straight, you’re claiming that non-UK citizens acting outside of the UK are subject to UK law?
how’s that hard to grasp
If you are claiming what it seems like you’re claiming then it’s not difficult to grasp, it’s just wrong.
- Comment on 4chan and Kiwi Farms Sue the UK Over its Age Verification Law 2 months ago:
the point was the UK is not the only one trying to do it
I don’t see any evidence of the EU trying to do with the GDPR what the UK is trying to do with the CPA.
they can totally enforce the fine by restricting those businesses from doing business within their territory until they comply
That’s sanctioning, not enforcing a fine.
And yes they can do that but that’s not what Ofcom is talking about. Ofcom have explicitly stated that foreign citizens have “duties” under UK law. The word “duty” has a very specific meaning in English law, in fact it’s really one of the most basic concepts. It means there is an obligation on someone and if that obligation is not fulfilled then courts have the power to take action.
Sanctioning a foreign citizen doesn’t imply an obligation. There can’t be an obligation because a foreign citizen, by definition, is not subject to English law. Ofcom is claiming that foreign citizens are subject to English law.
I don’t know how you could get it more wrong.
LOL
