They're doing it in Australia too. Netanyahu meddling with our politics

Because the people without a brain would see it too

Transition changes biology. Trans women are at a disadvantage compared to cis women due to low T levels. You think it's unfair because you're ignorant and hostile to being informed, not because you somehow magically know better than the people who are actually affected and actually study this shit.

You also just realistically can't make a place unrobbable while still being a place you can visit and look at stuff in. The real deterrent is the fact that the valuables stored in a museum are basically impossible to sell. Not for their actual value.

These terms already exist and mean something different. I'm gynosexual. This means I like femininity. I'm attracted to most women and feminine enough men.

Not coddled. Neglected and emotionally abused.

It's probably the 15% false conviction rate, actually. Any punishment for a crime will, always and immediately, be done to an innocent. That's why it's best that they're not permanent.

And frustratingly weren't taught in any of the classes I took.

Mm. By a ton of metrics trans women literally are biological women. There's no way to exclude them that wouldn't also exclude a number of cis women. People don't get how much hormones change.

Modern civilisation has literally prevented that by destroying the biosphere and occupying all the good places for human habitation. You don't get to play the "you participate in society" card you disingenuous muppet.

The "reasoning" was always fake. That's not how LLMs work. People have mistaken the buzzword for truth again

Bottle cap?

It's blatant. The moment I read that headline I knew it was a ploy to justify a response

How?

Slave labour. Maybe not in name, but it's always that whenever something is cheaper than it should be. From clothes to materials to software.

This is old research by LLM standards, and notably very little seems to be done to try and create those world models in LLMs. There's an assumption that they will appear automatically but I don't think that's actually true.

I'm not sure what to do about it, cause in theory better cooling will just mean it heats the room more quickly. My pc is an actual health hazard in summer.

I'm still using my 3090. I'm considering upgrading if it'll help with the heat, cause my pc is a scorcher. Performance wise I have no complaints. It's just a hot sumbitch

30 series was during the crypto boom and were a massive pain in the ass to get. Scalpers galore.

You can see it in the cyberpunk genre. The way Japan always ruled the world.

How are you letting it do something when AI models don't have agency? What's that look like?

The only thing ai developers are experts on is AI development, which is a black box they don't understand. I keep that in mind every time a claim is made about AI capabilities and how easy it is for someone who doesn't know a field to mistake confidence (which LLMs inherently exude) for competence.

Where are you supposed to learn this stuff if you weren't born in the Triassic? :P

Whats a RAG and how do you do it?

Can you explain how to do this?

People used to be able to just walk in to places. The entire economy has gone to shit. There is no entry level any more.

Tankie party from the sounds of it. Hatred of minorities, Russia shilling, claims to be socialist.

Not seen in years is still a tiny fraction of their natural population levels

National identities are fairly new and not even all nations have them. Australia has basically no national identity. There's a strong argument to be made that Americans not only don't have one, but that they actively reject the idea in favour of state or ancestry based identities which are generally looked down on by the actual citizens of the nations they identify with. It's not like national identity is our default state. The fact that it's not natural is a big part of why people feel so alienated from their own countrymen these days. No national identity but the pretence of one has replaced their actual "tribal" identity.

Build a society that isn't a ponzi scheme or get comfortable with immigration. If you're going to need profound social change anyway, may as well do the job properly.

Western economies are doing terribly. We've been in a horrible death spiral for my entire life. With multiple once in a generation financial catastrophes and wages stagnated the whole time. The way economists measure the quality of an economy is clearly fundamentally wrong. And I hope that will get recognised at some point, but nobody wants to be the Rube who has to come clean about how badly we're doing and have been doing. Elon Musk making more money doesn't actually mean the economy is growing. It just means more money is siphoned out of the real economy and into the rich peoples hoards. Sure, they're technically investing it into various companies that have never been profitable and push out real competition, but none of that money is driving the real ground level economy any more. You get paid less every year, prices on many things drop in order to hide the fact that the economy has gone to shit, but certain things don't drop, and now nobody can afford a house.

I wonder how it must feel to be attached to your own nation in a way that you view what happened to it in the past as if it happened to you. I've never felt that attachment. I've seen films about tragic events in my countries history. And the fact that they were about my country had zero effect. The past is a foreign country. But honestly even if it wasn't the past, I just don't feel that national connection. I don't think people are weird for it. I'm obviously the odd one out here. But I can't imagine what it would be like.

That's not how it works. Just trust that you don't know enough to know why it's not a valid punishment option. If they want to do that, they can legally reinstate banishment as a punishment. They're currently just being lazy cunts unwilling to clean up their own mess or to deal with radicalisation of children in their country.

Stripping someone of their citizenship isn't punishment. It's buck passing. She was radicalised in the UK, she can be dealt with in the UK.

I feel like any military strategy that revolves around uncontested control of the skies inherently can't function against an opponent that isn't significantly inferior in tech. Unless the entire strategy is based on gaining air superiority, which then automatically wins the conflict, such a strategy only works if you're bullying a weaker nation.

Universal expansion tears things apart, not makes things bigger

My biggest struggle is YouTube addiction. Not addicted to shorts or trashy content, I'm just a greedy fuck and my subscription list puts out an easy 6+ hours of high quality content every day. Second biggest is general ADHD. I can only reliably get one thing done each day, and that's been dedicated to putting in at least a little bit of drawing time each day. Even medicated I'm operating on disability levels. What sucks about the scholarship is that my adhd was much better back then, and the YouTube addiction was also not really present. But I was so severely depressed after switching from my media course to programming (which meant losing my friends and the studio environment that gave me energy and social interaction) plus the state of the world at the time (2016), that I quite literally can't remember that year. The year began and I was crushing the course. Doing the extra mile and feeling great. Then nothing. And vague memory of late in the year with me failing every unit and struggling. That was the perfect opportunity to learn for me with the ideal environment and potential contacts and my body blew it while my mind was AWOL. Maybe a Udemy or one of those free online Harvard courses might help. But relying on myself to stay on track will be difficult. I can't separate my home computer from a work one.

If you have a dog, cat, and bear, would you give each their own eat function or reference an eat class instead?

Ah. I had a scholarship for a community college course in it last time, but I had a mental health crisis during and have no memory of that time. I might be able to go back, but not at the moment.

Ah yeah. It's coming back to me. The thing I had trouble with was interfaces that I got mixed up with classes.

Are both of them just written functions? Or do you make a "class file"?

What's the difference between a class and an object?

How'd you deal with analysis paralysis and perfectionism when learning? I've bounced off programming every time I've tried to learn because of that.

What's the starting point for learning this kind of math? I've observed back when I last attempted to learn programming that answers online could get accurate results from incomplete or seemingly arbitrary data, using math.

And the knowledge won't stick because you won't need it or use it often enough

The vast majority of people, even tech literate ones. Do not know how to use the CLI.
