That’s the joke. Stochastic means probabilistic. And this “algorithm” gives the correct answer for the vast majority of inputs

You have a shitty psychologist

Nobody likes the Iranian gov. Not Americans, regardless of the party, not Iranians, not any other country with an exception of maybe Russia. Big maybe.

They dug their own grave by being so annoying absolutely nobody will take their side.

My own answer that prompted me thinking - French Riviera/Cote d’Azur

I think I somehow expected it to be full of massive resorts like so many seaside destinations.

Don’t get me wrong, 100% of that coast is built up, no unused space at all. But in such a way that it’s still beautiful.

So much comes from AAVE, I’m expecting it to become the default American dialect in a few decades. More and more I see online creators talking in it.

The British vs American English shitposting will get a huge boost, we kinda got used to the existing differences.

That’s not the way it works in the EU

Not yet. Because they don’t have the mechanism.

And it’s not about Sánchez and his government. I don’t think they would do it. But governments change, sooner or later someone else will win elections. Someone who might not agree with criticism.

And don’t try to convince me “it would never happen in the EU”. We have more than enough examples that eventually every country has a brush with authoritarianism. Even in the EU currently (eg Hungary). Prevention is always better than trying to fix it later.

Hating on tech billionaires - Yes Government control of communications - No

Those things are not mutually exclusive

Having a social life is the key. It’s more likely to meet someone you get along with if you keep hanging out with a larger group of people you get along with. Rather than relying on an almost random app algorithm.

This one of those local things that makes possible to distinguish different ethnicities. Humans propagate physical traits genetically, therefore if a group of people has similar origins they will have some facial features in common as well.

Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, George Soros. I had a period where I appreciated people who played the system to get rich. Before I understood the system itself is the problem.

Imagine losing to VW in the EV game after a 10+ year headstart. Humiliating.

So he decided to ruin his one successful company. Which is successful because he wasn’t involved in running it until now.

Depends if you count porn as prostitution. They are doing it for money but not with you as the final customer.

Not a fan of actual person-to-person prostitution, however it shouldn’t be illegal. That being said, forced prostitution is a huge problem that must be addressed.

Government is the people. By that I mean people who are the government are a subset of people. They don’t have any additional insight into the world than a voter, although they might have more information.

Also voters are not a monolith, everyone wants something different. Sometimes very opposite things.

The best that can be done is trying to find a good way to achieve what the majority of voters want while not completely screwing over those who disagree.

Yes but I’m not sure LLMs would be the focus. Back in 2018-2019 we were already in an AI craze. Investors were throwing billions at it (compared to trillions now).

However LLMs were seen as little more than interesting toys by researchers. Conversational models were secondary compared to image recognition and generation which was considered way more cool than text.

No, using an OS is not something that requires a promise of commitment. It’s a utility needed for using a computer.

As enthusiasts we want as many people as possible to use good OSs, even if it ends at just trying it out.
The more people try Linux the better regardless of their motives.

People think it always has to be someone’s fault. It’s easier to attribute bad outcomes to specific actions by an individual, rather than accept things often happen through mechanism out of your control.

You’re not the only one who thinks so. Never tried it myself, but I’ve heard the same story from several people. Sure anecdotal evidence is not evidence, and so on. I’m convinced there is some truth to that, but not because of the direct causality.

Maybe it’s a strong placebo (most likely). If you look into placebo effect you’ll see it can be really powerful. Or there is something else in the human body that antibiotics stimulate. Like it’s not directly attacking the virus, but doing something else that makes it easier to recover.

1 and ∞ at the same time.

I can listen to one song on repeat like 20 times in a row, the same with a longer playlist. Actually the length of the playlist doesn’t matter. Once it becomes repetitive that’s it, it will always be repetitive be it one song or 1000.
