  • It's similar for Chess AI (and by that I mean Chess Engines that have been developed for decades, not LLMs) except that the engines will play extremely principled and cautious Chess, right up until it gets out of the book/theory territory and it calculates 20-30 moves into the future and determines that an incredibly unintuitive and bizarre move is the "best" position, but even the top grandmasters would likely never find that specific move that the engine determined was the best move you could make.

    In some cases, you can tell when someone is cheating by seeing them make top engine moves that don't do anything or really advance the board state in a meaningful way the turn you make them because it forces the opponent to make one or more less optimal moves that the player could capitalize on, but humans are terrible and seeing these patterns because they are super analytical and require precise calculation. Also, asking them to explain why they made those moves is another way to catch them in the act - and a subject of a great deal of controversy in modern chess tournaments when some players give less than convincing answers when pressed on why they made certain moves in the game.

  • They got scammed the first time around too. Remember "Finish The Wall"? Trump didn't build an inch of wall with that money, it just vanished into thin air and appeared as a few extra digits in his bank accoount.

    The same people who forked over money for that and then admitted regretting it afterwards were the same ones gleefully preordering this phone. They'll be mad about it for a bit and then they'll fall for it again in due time. Easy marks.

  • More testing of the waters for 2028 when he inevitably refuses to leave office.

  • It's already an incredibly popular sign at every No Kings protest or just random local protests in general.

    Even if it was just Comey who did it, this doesn't constitute a direct or actionable threat. 86 is kitchen jargon to get rid of something, and one interpretation of that could be to kill, but another could be to get rid of him using the legal channels already in place (impeachment, invoking 25th amendment, etc.).

    This indictment has no legs and will get tossed out before any competent judge.

  • I remember this shit being delicious when I was a kid, but a couple of years ago I bought a box on a whim to try it out and it was almost inedible.

  • If only Crooks had better aim, we could have had the pink mist televised for the whole world to see.

  • All the more reason to say no to him. As if I needed more reasons.

  • Monobiomes are probably the rule and Earth-like continental planetoids with diverse topology are probably exceedingly rare in the universe.

  • The Trump admin doesn't consider competency as a crucial skill to be a military logistician. In fact, the only crucial skill they care about is loyalty to Trump.

  • You can kind of see this as a general win for anybody who is a fan of using psychedelics for treatment of mental health issues, but it's important to point out that both of the people mentioned in the headline have ulterior motives for this move.

    Trump wants to get Joe Rogan back on his side after he alienated him with his Iran antics. Joe Rogan is one of the biggest conservative megaphones in the nation and he can't afford to have him be talking shit about MAGA before the midterms, so he'll throw him a bone about this one issue that he doesn't give a fuck about anyway.

    Joe Rogan is doing this to be able to hopefully one day self-administer psychedelics, not get meaningful treatment or aid from a professional to guide him through the process and change himself for the better.

    I'm not sure which of these two are being more selfish at this point.

  • True investigative journalism is finding out if bears shit in the woods. Details at 11:00.

  • Oh no, those subtleties aren't lost on me, I'm just lamenting that literally anyone is falling for this scheme. Even if this would be technically unenforceable it's still 1000% bad and should never even be in congress. I hate that every few years some draconian bullshit like this pops up and we need to muster all of our collective will to raise awareness and fight it. Someone else said it best in the thread - we need to win every time, but they only need to win once.

  • Does me tapping my order into a self-service kiosk at a restaurant count as "using" the operating system that it is running on?

    Like, I feel like this is going to be really difficult to enforce, and big business might actually push back against it if they think it will hurt their bottom line, but my god can we stop with this nanny state internet surveillance bullshit already? The government is too stupid to actually protect anyone with this dumb law because there will always be loopholes and workarounds.

  • It's real, but 1000% staged. No way secret service would have let an unvetted Doordash driver approach the front door of the White House, let alone meet the President in person. It's a publicity stunt.

    Despite this, some people still believe it's an organic moment, as if any Doordash driver would be comfortable just standing there as a political prop for two hours instead of running more deliveries.

  • Someday everyone will claim to have always opposed him.

  • This doesn't hurt Iran at all, it just makes the problem worse for everyone else. All this will accomplish is loading more international pressure on the United States to end the conflict immediately with major concessions to Iran.

  • That has always been the most fucked up part about flight delays. They get everybody boarded and seated, plane is ready to go, maybe you start taxiing, and then you're just sitting there waiting for potentially hours.

    I refuse to believe that returning the plane to the terminal jetway and allowing the passengers to deboard is some kind of unsolvable conundrum or major issue that can't be surmounted with better logistics. They have never been able to properly explain why they can't do exactly that, other than that they don't want to do the paperwork.

  • This is an absolutely hilarious way to hear about this news.

  • Sometimes I get into the weeds a bit arguing with someone over trivial shit, and my brain just can't handle not getting the last word in. Blocking helps with that. It's petty, sure, but it lets me move on and get back to my day rather than angrily typing out dumb responses that I would no doubt regret later.

    I try to do it sparingly. I never want to be the one hardheaded guy everyone knows that will never admit defeat under any circumstances, so getting taken down a peg or two from time to time is probably healthy for me. Keeps me grounded in reality rather than huffing my own farts and calling it perfume.

    I think I've had to ban more people from the community I moderate than people I've had to block for being assholes/trolls.

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Should I go back to my old job?
