I wonder why they waited until just after the first quarter. Hmmmmm…

Yeah I thought we already knew this? He’s literally talked about how you have to beat your girlfriends when they don’t respect you and nasty shit like that.

Whoops, meant flags

It’s actually so bad lol. Idk what Microsoft has against - for args flags but it’s fuckn annoying

Stores have a obscene loss rate from workers damaging product, forgetting to scan it out, it simply coming broken and other such “Just business” costs. Theft is seriously just not a problem. I work at a Fred Myers and awhile back we locked up our soap isle and whatever. Know what we do now? We leave that shit unlocked because it’s stupid and a waste of people’s time to have to go and open it up. Know what else we did? We installed a new system for the carts which is supposed to prevent theft (if you don’t go through self checkout or a register one of the wheels locks up when you try to leave). I has been believe 3 months now. It’s either still not actually been activated or people who steel stuff don’t use carts… weird. And my final thing is how just completely irrelevant even pretty significant numbers are in the grand scheme of things. I know for a fact we’ve had 10k worth of stuff get yoinked. Good chunk of money, no debating that however how much of an impact does that actually make on the store? A single department makes more than that in a day in profit. If that doesn’t immediately seem possible that’s only 100 people spending $100 each (assuming 100% profits for simplicity). That’s like an hour ish if two registers are open and self checkout is closed.

TLDR theft (at least for the big stores) is completely irrelevant, it’s such a small slice of the pie compared to other losses.

ಠ_ಠ gross

But that obviously wouldn’t stop them from having him disappeared. Heck I don’t even think that’s off the table now

Genuinely. I had a discussion with somebody at work which boiled down to “Yeah but Trump stored the top secret documents in an unused bathroom while Hillary had emails in a private server which ended up being poorly secured so Hillary is actually the much worse security violation.”

Yes but a lot of us who do block ads block them largely because they are intolerable. I largly only started blocking ads at all because of how utterly miserable YouTube ads became.

I think vandalizing cyber trucks is funny, the cars not so much. You have to be so far up your own ass to buy the Cyber Truck you deserve anything coming to ya. The cars despite how much it annoys me most people missed the obvious Nazi for what he was up until the Sieg Hail

While this is pretty hilarious LLMs don’t actually “know” anything in the usual sense of the word. An LLM, or a Large Language Model is a basically a system that maps “words” to other “words” to allow a computer to understand language. IE all an LLM knows is that when it sees “I love” what probably comes next is “my mom|my dad|ect”. Because of this behavior, and the fact we can train them on the massive swath of people asking questions and getting awnsers on the internet LLMs essentially by chance are mostly okay at “answering” a question but really they are just picking the next most likely word over and over from their training which usually ends up reasonably accurate.

Cry about it. Crypto bros make the same excuses to this day prove your bullshit works before you start shoving it in my face. And yes, LLMs are really unhelpful. There’s extremely little value you can get out of them (outside of generating text that looks like a human wrote it which is what they are designed to do) unless you are a proper moron.

Is that so? I don’t find it odd at all when the only thing LLMs are good at so far is losing people their jobs and lowering the quality of essentially everything they get shoved into.

There’s gonna be an oh shit moment for a lot of the supporters hopefully, but the actual people in power want the government to collapse. Their goal is to remake all aspects of the government as a private for profit business. The first steps in such a plan is obviously the destruction of public services like the Mail.

The goal here is not actually to save money for the US government, it’s to make money from replacing the government with your own private businesses

Yes, yet this misunderstanding is still extremely common.

People like to anthropomorphize things, obviously people are going to anthropomorphize LLMs, but as things stand people actually believe that LLMs are capable of thinking, of making real decisions in the way that a thinking being does. Your average Koala, who’s brain is literally smooth has better intellectual capabilities than any LLM. The koala can’t create human looking sentences but it’s capable of making actual decisions.

Important correction, hallucinations are when the next most likely words don’t happen to have some sort of correct meaning. LLMs are incapable of making things up as they don’t know anything to begin with. They are just fancy autocorrect

Yes? Why would that be surprising

Hah! Elections you think we’ll be getting more of those at this rate?

How fancy we talking? The most my fancy IDE tools extend to is like creating functions for me or creating a loop and junk like that. It’s not writing any of my code more than autocorrect is writing an essay for me.

Okay so say your testing a brand new rocket engine idea. It uses a fuel nobody has tried to use before. So what you do is you figure out how much energy this fuel has and do some math to figure out how much you’ll need to take with you for the typical rocket. You design an engine for this spec or better and thoroughly test it to make sure it’s behaving like expected. You eventually mount it to a rocket and make sure in practice it behaves as you expect. Next you put a payload in the rocket and test it again. If at any point things don’t behave as expected you have to fix your whole model.

SpaceX struggles to go a launch without their engines destroying themselves. Perhaps they should go back a few steps?
