61·14 hours agoCheeto Benito.
AIs will never be able to abstract away details correctly or design sensible workflows for boutique problems.
Not the current direction of AI, no. But the field is ever advancing. I won’t be shocked if we see AI capable of these things within my lifetime.
I find they’re often still not as good as they were, but you can get closer by brushing them with a bit of oil (I like to use avocado oil) before air frying, and re-salting before or after they’ve been reheated. Especially if you use a good garlic salt.
Damn, now I want potatoes.
Boeing, but a generally reliable model of Boeing
After nearly 14 years of 787 flights, this is the first hull loss and first fatality.
That’s a stellar safety record for any plane.
5·1 day agoI believe this is the first fatal incident with the 787 and the first hull loss. It has a remarkable safety record over nearly 14 years.
2·1 day agoVegemite is one of my most proud acquired tastes. My parents picked up a jar of it when they were down under, and when I was over and saw it I said, “Oh good, you got Vegemite!”
They started going on about how they think it’s a joke that the locals play on foreigners. I showed them that if you spread it thin enough, you can start to enjoy it. Then you build up that enjoyment.
I love that shit.
Coincidentally, it is both his birthday and the US army’s “birthday.” Both arrived on June 14th, one in 1775 and the other in 1946.
1·4 days agoYep. I was really annoyed when Windows moved away from the aero effects of Vista and 7 to the flat look of 8/8.1, 10, and 11.
(Yes yes, Windows bad. I have to use it for work.)
I’m looking forward to this, I think it looks gorgeous.
Dude was watching her report, and when she stopped talking and stepped aside, he casually shot her. I think he was hoping to get her when the camera was off. What an asshole.
Let go of the hate, my friend. It does you no good to carry that weight.
I’ve got some religious people you should meet, who fly pride flags and preach inclusivity, affirmation, and love. They like to talk about how Jesus welcomed sinners and told the proud holier-than-thou hypocrite-types they could fuck right off.
Don’t paint with black and white. There’s a whole spectrum out there in this beautiful world.
Why would they “prove” something that’s completely obvious?
I don’t want to be critical, but I think if you step back a bit and look and what you’re saying, you’re asking why we would bother to experiment and prove what we think we know.
That’s a perfectly normal and reasonable scientific pursuit. Yes, in a rational society the burden of proof would be on the grifters, but that’s never how it actually works. It’s always the doctors disproving the cure-all, not the snake oil salesmen failing to prove their own prove their own product.
There is value in this research, even if it fits what you already believe on the subject. I would think you would be thrilled to have your hypothesis confirmed.
We use plenty of biodegradable plastics. They’re not always the correct solution. You wouldn’t want an airplane biodegrading, for example.
It’s doesn’t matter, since the absence or presence of light would still be perceived by colour blind people. It doesn’t change how they would drive, as they are already driving with the knowledge of colour blindness in mind when looking at tail lights.
Tail lights being red is fine if you live with the most common forms of colorblindness which fall into what we call “red-green colorblind.” It is still a different color than headlights.
Now put those same red-green lights on the front, and we have a problem.
I didn’t think you meant to, and I wasn’t trying to be accusatory. It’s a pretty fair assumption to think he messed himself up, judging by his…colorful habits.
you are the first person that I’ve seen to finally mention his voice. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with his entire vocal box??
I think most people don’t talk about it because there are plenty of things to complain about with RFK Jr, we don’t have to resort to ableism.
He has a condition called spasmodic dysphonia. Legendary NPR interviewer Diane Rehm also suffered from this condition, which eventually ended her radio career.
I could be wrong, but I don’t think it’s because of his terrible health decisions. It happens to some people.
1·10 days agoI did the perpendicular thing for a while, but two of the magnets I use with the phone (one a charger, one just a mount) are strong enough that removing the phone perpendicularly is difficult.
If I ever decide I don’t want my printed case, I’ll try the loctite solution! Thanks!
No, but the person I had replied to, hence the context for my post, did:
I’m not saying LLMs can, or will be able to, do these things. LLMs are likely a dead-end on the road to AGI. Dead-ends are part of progress. The crossbow eventually hits a dead-end in terms of propelling projectiles with ease faster and harder, but that isn’t the end of projectiles. We got cannons, then hand cannons, and then guns.
I’m saying if LLMs are cars, AI is “vehicles.” LLM is a subset of the broader category. We have helicopters and planes. They came later than horse carts and cars, but they’re still vehicles. And used some of what we learned building carts and cars, but also with new ideas and concepts.
And for all we know, someday someone will figure out how to harness the power of gravity like we did with electromagnetism, and we’ll have flying cars. We can’t know, but just because we don’t have the technology now doesn’t mean we never will.
