Oh yeah, he could kill them all and then appoint a bunch of new very brave conservative justices.

It's highly unlikely, but it's funny to think about.

Only in so much as the Supreme Court decides that it is "legal".

So the details are that the Supreme Court left it open to interpretation as to what could be considered an "Official Act". If the Supreme Court decides your murder spree is an "Official Act" you are good to go.

So if the Supreme Court Justices are conservative when Biden goes to trial, then yes, he can be found guilty.

I don't get the "take off your shoes" part. Is this a meme I have missed?

As someone who doesn't pay close attention to what Google does at the top of the page, this is not obvious to me. Glad it is a shit post and not something Google actually responded with.

I have used LLMs before and they are occasionally wrong, seems like you don't disagree. I don't see how someone who isn't deeply familiar with LLMs would be obviously tipped off that this post is a shit post. As for the graphs, who knows, Google probably already has that working. I've seen LLMs make up songs before too.

AI would never write this.

Why not? I figure you could train an AI to write this. I could see a Google engineer messing up and producing a bad AI. GPT2 engineers has made this mistake before.

The fact that you are believing it doesn’t speak to the danger of AI as much as it speaks to the gullibility of people.

This is kind of like saying "the problem with nuclear bombs is that people are too easy to evaporate at high temperatures, not the bombs themselves". Yeah, that is true, but it's really hard to make people less gullible. I wouldn't say LLM's and AI are bad or we should stop using them. But I think people like you need to understand that the average person is not on your level, and you need to slow your roll.

If I said “obama made a law to put babies in woodchippers”....

I don't think this is a good comparison, because Obama has been around for a while and most people believe Obama wouldn't do that. Now if Obama went from being a nobody to president in a day and then someone told me the about the woodchipper law. I would be unsure and have to double check. It wouldn't be obvious. Likewise, since LLMs are relatively new to most people, it's going to take a while before most people figure out what is a normal mistake by an LLM vs an obviously faked mistake by a shit poster.

Ok, your not the original person. Is this an obvious shit post in your opinion?

Because if it isn't obvious how am I supposed to know this is a shit post or not?

How is this an obvious shit post? I am here to learn.

Do you ever feel like we will be the last generation to know anything?

So the quality is worth the price of not owning the work you do?

I guess everyone has to make their own call...

It has its usages. Unfortunately, the market pressures are going to require companies to use them in a way to make investors happy. The average Joe is probably going to have a bad time.

This is funny and it makes me feel good. But you know as well as I do, that it doesn't matter what any religious text says is right or wrong. Fascism and capitalism will take control and health care will be a personal problem.

Your feelings are valid, but so are women's. If 1 out of every 6 of my friends got shot by a black person, then I would rather be in the woods with the bear instead of a black person. Now, does that justify treating black people badly and avoiding them, no. You can have a feeling and understand why it is bad and racist and not act on it. Do women avoid men, no. Feelings are not the same as actions. You can be afraid of what might happen while going out on a first date with a man.

The outcome man/bear thought experiment never said that all men are bad/rapists.

Can you change it, yes. But it is harder (societal changes).

  1. Make sure your male friends understand consent. The 1 out of 6 number is how many women who have experienced sexual violence against them.
  2. I know a lot of women watch crime scene investigations. Maybe throw some real statistics about crime in those shows, so that women don't get the idea that there is a murderer around every corner.
 

So, I have come to the conclusion that the word "want" in my brain has two closely related meanings.

  1. Something I want right now for the dopamine. Ex Ice Cream.
  2. Something that I want for my self long term. Ex to be healthy.

It is hard enough to organize my thoughts normally, but when I have competing wants like Ice Cream, vs to be healthy. It really sucks to have the same word for both.

Does anyone else feel this way? Is there other words that you use to help separated these ideas in your head?

 

I am writing a unit test and mocking library in C and I want to set the call stack memory to some pre determined value like memset. I want to do this before the test function is called so the test writer can verify they aren't using uninitialized memory in their tests. Is there any somewhat portable way to do this?

 

I just found out that Battle Bit Remastered exists and it supports 254 simultaneous players per game.

I am wondering how that is even possible. Does anyone know of any details on how they achieved it? Are there any resources for making a networking engine capable of supporting that many players?
