Considering the election is likely coming down to tenths of a percent in a dozen districts in a handful of swing states I’ll take those 12 votes.

He’s still upset Zelenskyy didn’t falsify evidence about Hunter Biden for him.

So… nihilism?

It’s crazy how much more you can get done in one calm uninterrupted hour than in a whole very active afternoon.

I think you’ve read more into it than the Nazis have (as they are typically too dumb to read). Things are very black and white for these people. “Immigrants is bad. Springfield is immigrants. Springfield is bad.” That’s as far as the thinking goes. Then lazy Neo-Nazis that have nothing to do with the situation do whatever they can to “hurt” the “bad people” and a very easy way to do that is to call in bomb threats. And since they are not just stupid but also unoriginal and they already heard someone else called in a bomb threat…I guess that’s what we’re doing now…

Congratulations, you are now an “early riser.” Enjoy the hours from 4-6 am where nothing happens and nobody bothers you (unless you have kids…)

This is what Ilya saw…

As long as they don’t fuck it up in a similar fashion to seemingly every other thing they have tried for a couple decades.

Assuming it takes its answer from search results, and the search results are all affiliate marketing sites that just want you to click on a link and buy something, this makes perfect sense.

Is language conscious?

Are atoms?

I don’t know if LLMs of a large enough size can achieve (or sufficiently emulate) consciousness, but I do know that we barely know anything about consciousness, let alone it’s limits.

The thing is, LLMs can be used for something like this, but just like if you asked a stranger to write a letter for your loved one and only gave them the vaguest amount of information about them or yourself you’re going to end up with a really generic letter.

…but to give me amount of info and detail you would need to provide it with, you would probably end up already writing 3/4 of the letter yourself which defeats the purpose of being able to completely ignore and write off those you care about!

I think there is a significant distinction between “regular” working class and “earning above €400,000 per year” working class.

I think the guy you’re responding to is more talking about the distinction between income and capital gains, with income making up far less of the wealthy’s worth than existing investments.

But yes, a lot of people also have no concept of how tax brackets work.

I keep forgetting that that’s an option

This is similar to something I assumed right before I had a long argument with a high school physics teacher. We ended up agreeing that he just didn’t really care.

The problem with hearing when a note isn’t right is that by the time you hear it you’ve already played it…

As someone who could never get used to just kinda eyeballing where a note is supposed to be, I strongly disagree about the trombone.

Why would I unload my emotional baggage on the people who caused it in the first place? That just sounds like more baggage.

Edit: This was supposed to be a joke. You can stop pointing out my complex trauma, thank you.

I mean, it would probably be a good opportunity for a handful of really rich people to further their control and ownership globally…so as long as our billionaire overlords value human life over their own personal power we should be good.

This would explain the other article I saw about a US-Clooney $20 billion arms deal.
