It's not exactly R rated, but Gideon the Ninth (and its sequels) don't shy away from gore and raunchy language.

I have never encountered anyone else who ever read the books or played the games.

Well now you have. I played (and finished) Betrayal at Krondor.

You're going to start a fight with the doas people.

Still not as bad as chmod -R 777.

Is a chicken egg an egg laid by a chicken, or an egg that if fertilized would hatch into a chicken?

That's LLM AI, but the type I'm talking about is the machine learning kind. I can envision a system that takes e.g. a sample's test data and provides a summary, which is not far from what doctors do anyway. If you ever get a blood test's results explained to you it's "this value is high, which would be concerning except that this other value is not high, so you're probably fine regarding X. However, I notice that this other value is low, and this can be an indicator of Y. I'm going to request a follow-up test regarding that." Yes, I would trust an AI to give me that explanation, because those are very strict parameters to work with, and the input comes from a trusted source (lab results and medical training data) and not "Bob's shrimping and hoola hoop dancing blog".

Hah, you caught it before the edit. I had rewritten the sentence and the comma was a leftover from the previous syntax.

Another way to put it that shows that there should be no comma : "Eric Adams is charged with stealing $10M. This speaks to a larger plot."

AI trained to do that job? Sure, yeah. LLM AI? Fuck no.

And later Romo Lampkin and Crowley.
