  • It's right here. In this thread. Top comment. Pee Wee Herman.

    Always needing examples and evidence. Eyes always shut to examples and evidence.

    So let me get this straight, every mob is right every time? This is your actual belief?

  • I agree. It would have been a great opportunity for him to recast himself as an adult. Just like Rowan Atkinson doesn't need to be Mr. Bean.

    It sucks that this is a question that has reasonable answers for it that has to get nuked because lemmy is full of censorous slime, who are self-conscious of their own censorous nature. Mean while they have posts on the front page pointing fingers of censorship at others.

  • And then everybody clapped.

  • You store your credit card in your computer? If browser credit card management isn't secure enough to avoid that attack you shouldn't be using it.

  • They are so short sighted to. Ad blocker help advertizers. It allows sites to fill up sites with ads to the point of being unusable while not losing 100% of traffic. That keeps these site relevant enough that old people who don't have ad blockers end up there too when they follow links or google ranks a site high because it has traffic.

    If they got rid of all ad block somehow they would have to decrease the ads because I wouldn't use the web. Or online communities would be way more conscious of the ad level of the things they link to.

  • Most of them aren't on medicade.

  • I mean Germany requires people to work if they are on welfare. And their job placement program can even place you as a prostitute.

  • Technically you don't have to. People have been having children since at least the 1500s, and they didn't have medicade. There is nothing illegal about simply having a baby.

  • But they are cutting the subsidy for creating more poor people. If they benefited from poor people existing they wouldn't do that.

  • So what you are telling me is that if we cut it we'll have fewer poors?

  • Isn't it odd that researchers who should be pros at caring about and finding the most correct metrics for every topic are obsessed with a proxy for quality that is just about the most disjoint possible? It should be embarrassing.

  • Why you would want to spend time around such a hypocritical animal is something I'll never understand.

    All aspects of owning a cat really do seem to be negative where owning a dog is a mixed bag.

  • What was right wing about him?

  • In the future there will be media queries for how old the reader is.

  • The dependency hell of JS is caused by React. It's an ironic turn because node gained popularity in part because it was one of the first to have a coupled package manager with a massive public contribution model, full of a billion packages that follow the unix philosophy of "everything should do only one thing, and do it well" Dependency hell would disappear if people stopped popularizing competing swiss army knives. It's made worse by people trying to mash these swiss army knives together just to improve portfolio.

    We've gotten to the point where you aren't considered a real professional unless you start even the smallest projects with maximum technical debt.

    It should never be impressive that you used a tool. If the tool made programming it easier then it's not a mental feat. If the tool made programming it harder, then people should think you are kind of slow for using a tool that made development harder. This is why brag culture over what tools are used makes no sense. Just use tools that make life easier. If it doesn't make life easier, stop using it.

  • Intuition is about the only thing it has. It's a statistical system. The problem is it doesn't have logic. We assume because its computer based that it must be more logic oriented but it's the opposite. That's the problem. We can't get it to do logic very well because it basically feels out the next token by something like instinct. In particular it doesn't mask or disconsider irrelevant information very well if two segments are near each other in embedding space, which doesn't guarantee relevance. So then the model is just weighing all of this info, relevant or irrelevant to a weighted feeling for the next token.

    This is the core problem. People can handle fuzzy topics and discrete topics. But we really struggle to create any system that can do both like we can. Either we create programming logic that is purely discrete or we create statistics that are fuzzy.

    Of course this issue of masking out information that is close in embedding space but is irrelevant to a logical premise is something many humans suck at too. But high functioning humans don't and we can't get these models to copy that ability. Too many people, sadly many on the left in particular, not only will treat association as always relevant but sometimes as equivalence. RE racism is assoc with nazism is assoc patriarchy is historically related to the origins of capitalism ∴ nazism ≡ capitalism. While national socialism was anti-capitalist. Associative thinking removes nuance. And sadly some people think this way. And they 100% can be replaced by LLMs today, because at least the LLM is mimicking what logic looks like better though still built on blind association. It just has more blind associations and finetune weighting for summing them. More than a human does. So it can carry that to mask as logical further than a human who is on the associative thought train can.

  • Even defining reason is hard and becomes a matter of philosophy more than science. For example, apply the same claims to people. Now I've given you something to think about. Or should I say the Markov chain in your head has a new topic to generate thought states for.
