No, you wouldn’t know them - they go to a different high school. In Canada.

To be fair, he didn’t say he was ugly or unkempt, just that he looked like he expected him to. You’re the one who took that to mean ugly.

It wasn’t just “political views” - his stances weren’t merely ones of policy, and he repeatedly made statements that made clear he thought that anyone who wasn’t a white male was a lesser human. He spread racism and misogyny with nearly every breath. He deserves no rest and no peace.

It’s almost impressive how Sweeney manages to have the most wrong take on every single issue.

Yeah, I’d agree that would be an improvement on the headline.

That’s what “fatally” means? Not sure there’s that much of a semantic gap between “fatally shot” and “killed” other than the former actually explains how it was done.

“…A deadly fungus that can be considered a superbug due to its resistance to all types of antibiotics…”

Um, yeah - antiobiotics don’t treat fungal infections. What the writer should have written is that it is resistant to antifungal medications.

Read the article:

“The Indie Game Awards have a hard stance on the use of gen AI throughout the nomination process and during the ceremony itself. When it was submitted for consideration, a representative of Sandfall Interactive agreed that no gen AI was used in the development of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.”

It is wasn’t about what was released, the rules of the awards had restrictions on using AI in development and the developers lied about not using it when they submitted themselves for the award. Gen AI is bad, but lying about using it is much worse.

They lied on the application and said no AI was used.

I think the issue is much more that they lied on the application

If you can find it, look for the Indonesian version of ramen from Indomie. In my opinion, so much better - it actually has other flavors than salt! ;)

Joaquin Phoenix, no exceptions. And it’s totally not fair. He’s a gifted actor, and I can’t stand him for some reason.

Nice strawman, but not applicable. A car can mechanically fail, resulting in a crash or a human can operate it in such a manner as to cause a crash. It can’t crash on its own and if driven and maintained correctly, won’t crash.

An AI, on the other hand, can give answers but never actually “knows” if it’s correct or true. Sometimes the answers will be correct because you get lucky but there’s nothing in any current LLM out there that can tell fact from fiction. It’s just based on how it’s trained and what it’s trained on, and even when taking from “real” sources, it can mix things up when combining sources.

The only way a car would be like an AI is if every time you sat in the car, it occasionally drove you to the right place and you didn’t mind the other 9 out of 10 times it drove you to the wrong place, drove you using the least efficient route, and/or occasionally drove across lawns and fields, and on sidewalks. Oh, and the car assembles itself from other people’s cars and steals their gas.

It’s more than “AI isn’t perfect”, it’s that AI isn’t even good. Moderation, and even summaries, require more than predictions - they require understanding, which AI doesn’t have. It’s all hallucinations, and it’s just that through sheer dumb luck and hoovering in so much ill-gotten data that sometimes the hallucinations happen to be correct.

If stuff like this was obvious to everyone, people would’ve been smart enough to not vote for Trump. And articles like this do erode the number of people who support Trump or are anti-vax. Just because it’s yet more evidence to you of fuckery from these twatwaffles doesn’t mean it’s not also a revelation for someone else.

I always name them, but I have no naming scheme per se, other than vibes. First car I ever owned was a light blue 83 Cutlass - that was “Bob”. Had an early 90s Dodge Shadow with a v6 and that was “Pepe.” Most recent is a 2010 VW Final Edition convertible w/ blue & white two tone paint and she’s “Elsa.” The names just always seem to be there already when I get them.

Why would anyone switch off IPv4? That makes no sense and isn’t commonly done. You run dual stack in most cases – NAT v4 and straight v6. A lot of folks are using v6 on mobile phones without even realizing it because telcos ran the numbers years ago and realized it was cheaper to push v6 at the end user layer than run NAT and/or try to find v4 addresses on the transfer market. There’s been no unallocated pool of v4 space for almost a decade.

What do you imagine the “cost” is?

Looking forward to: everything

Scared of: everything

I’m an optimist with a lot of anxiety :/

Have you ever heard the phrase “You can’t reason someone out of an opinion that they didn’t reason themselves into”? If they’re objectively not fat, than what they’re really saying is they feel like they’re fat, not they they think that they’re fat. That can be for a whole host of reasons, but arguing facts with them won’t help. Far better to have discussions with them about why they feel that way and why they’re focused on it. Ultimately it’s an issue they have to resolve themselves and not something you can convince them of.
