  Arrows are more descriptive. \vec is better.

  I’d rather have a New Deal 2

  Probably have a few cards running the displays and the rest of them mining some sphere-themed memecoin

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bill Gates says not to worry about AI's energy draw⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Alright, but if I end up getting stuffed in a goo-filled pod so the AI can suck my energy out through a massive plug in the back of my head, I’m gonna be pretty upset.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Novel attack against virtually all VPN apps neuters their entire purpose⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think this is a good enough reason to actually put in some effort to phase out ipv4 and dhcp. There shouldn’t be a way for some random node on the network to tell my node what device to route traffic over. Stateless ipv6 for the win.

  Did nobody else’s CS department require a bunch of linear algebra courses? A vector is an element of vector space.

  Not OP but I read somewhere that 20% of mammal species are bats. So you’re probably right.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google DeepMind co-founder Mustafa Suleyman warns AI is a ‘fundamentally labor replacing’ tool over the long term⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sucks that we live in the one timeline where AI is guaranteed to become an agent of coercion and exploitation, and do a better job than any human at optimizing the system of inequality.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨we're still trying to figure out if they go to the same floor or not.⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you go to P and check enough doors, you might be able to find one that proves you’ve been on NP this whole time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GM Says It's Ditching Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for Your Safety⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Glad Apple and Google are getting the boot, but you can be certain the best interests of the consumer were not part of the consideration.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Pentagon is moving toward letting AI weapons autonomously decide to kill humans⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For the record, I’m not super worried about AI taking over because there’s very little an AI can do to affect the real world.

  Giving them guns and telling them to shoot whoever they want changes things a bit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can't we just talk about it without the maths? Guys?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Having a hard time finding the average velocity of a car is definitely a sign from the universe that you should switch majors.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TikTok says it’s not the algorithm, teens are just pro-Palestine — The company denied allegations that it has been promoting pro-Palestine content in an effort to sway American opinion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think an algorithm is responsible for the fact that most sane people are generally against genocide. People being pro-Palestine in this specific situation is a humanitarian response and should not be causing any amount of concern because it is the morally correct position here.

  HOWEVER, the fact that we just witnessed the fucking letter to america go viral on tiktok, wherein a soul crushing amount of people publicly stated they agree with a fucking jihadist manifesto, is cause for a massive amount of concern. Tiktok definitely needs to face consequences for letting that happen. We also can’t excuse the audience for that type of behaviour. Whether it came from a deliberate propaganda campaign, or a sketchy algorithm, or just mass stupidity, audience members need to be better. If you read the letter to america and you think bin laden was right, you’re a moron, and you’re contributing to the problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can't compile "iwlwifi" module in Linux⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This would normally be a compiler warning, but someone has enabled the -Werror compiler option (probably in the makefile) which causes the compiler to treat all warnings as errors. You can just remove any -Werror flags from the makefile and it should compile properly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Unity deleted these terms, don't let them get out⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Lmao when you’re trying to turn your company into a bloodsucking vampire but you forgot that long ago, you told your lawyer to chain the coffin in case this very thing happened.
