Male went out while getting laid. What's the problem?

It's like the plunge protection team, wall street insider market manipulators, russian hackers, crypto bros, and lizard people all forgot to have their syndicate meeting last night and accidentally pulled the same lever at the same time. Nothing to see here!!

Honestly, a big upside of this tech could be that kids will grow up interacting with and model a much higher level of prose and conversation structure than they'd otherwise get from peers and human teachers. We're getting the opposite now with a generation training their brains on texting...

Lol, nah. We have a Mr/Mrs Spratt deal with finances. I do all the budgeting, accounting, investing, and taxes, and she gets to free up her headspace from bureaucracy and focus on work. She does make a bunch more money than I do, but... #firstworldproblems.

No issues with that here, the SGV is like 2/3 Asian. My wife is like a 5 on the tiger mom scale. (Thank god. My kids' friends' moms can be NUTS.) We're going to underplay asian-ness when it comes to college, for sure, given how affirmative action works out. No violin or math olympiad and we...

Not an investment I'm willing to let you guys in on, but I married an AI researcher/developer. Good payback so far.

My wife is Chinese and her parents are still connected to the immigrant sub-economy. She just brought us six dozen eggs for $10 total.

Don't confuse "don't" with "can't". Flip this around for a second: Modern cranes and power equipment exist now and did not exist in 1800. Why would you be surprised that we use them? Of course we COULD perform the same work with 10,000 man-years of carving with spoons and hammers and rope...

What barriers? You posted a Redfin link.

Like I said, we're very close to them. Her family is great and we have a big social/support network through them. It's good for both us and the kids.

Wouldn't work. Resident Asian population would eat them.

Layne's stuff is great. No bullshit, just verifiable facts.

One of the nicer parts of the northern San Gabriel Valley, east of Pasadena in the foothills.

I just bought a house in Los Angeles. Pray for me, boys. (Before the inevitable chorus of "WHYYY??", my wife has multiple generations of relatives here that we're very close to. Family first.)

DeepMind/Boston Dynamics collaboration is coming for the jocks next.

I'll take a Neapolitan style pizza every time.

I'm convinced that there was a magic spot in the technology curve where the consoles were just capable enough to allow a full range of story and emotional expression but limited enough that developers had to heavily distill the player experience. Now we have effectively infinite storage and...

You try to keep every thread read? WTF, get a hobby.

I actually sympathize with him a bit on that demand list. He may have predictably martyred himself for the fighter community, but if he's still financially stable going forward I can see how it might be worth it to him to take a stand.

It's pretty obvious he meant "Because... we didn't go there," as in "We didn't go there since Apollo" and his sentence fell apart mid-stream.

Half-senile old man poorly phrases statement. Story at 11.

Dude, you're worse than a vegan Crossfitter.

Right. Is your target product functionally indistinguishable (or exactly equal to) sufficiently sophisticated bullshit? If so, these GPTs are coming for you.

I'm sure it depends on the subject matter. The example I saw was of a college ethics class.

Fuck you, you're giving me flashbacks to when I TA'd a class of 200 in grad school. I'll die a happy man if I never see another human's handwriting. I've already seen teachers claiming that the dead giveaway of ChatGPT use was that the essays were too good, like by far the best in the class.

Sure, if you're satisfied with a simulation where the answer is the universe itself and takes until heat death to return. That's totally unactionable.

This doesn't work unless you assume new/magic physics. You can't fully simulate this universe inside this universe, because the computer would need to have at least as many atoms as the universe. Any alien race in this universe would be running a simulation of a universe with simpler physics.

Sharing asshole scrapers is totally hygienic, though, because it was stored in a jar of vinegar.

I'd worry a lot more about the FoH crowd than bots.

Right, but that kind of "AI" is mostly script-driven and not part of the recent revolution that we've seen in the last 8 months. This last generation of generative transformers are a totally different ballgame. My wife runs an AI/machine learning department in the health care space, so I have a...

That I could believe given the reaction to previous politically incorrect algorithms. But this guy's "gotcha" with ChatGPT confessing that people are generating the responses is just goofy. If anything, just look at the speed of response vs the world's fastest typist. And if it were humans, why...

This is bullshit; he's just created some inconsistencies in the response and misunderstanding how the tech works (or more likely intentionally misrepresenting it for clicks). GPT models can produce any number of factually incorrect statements. What they can't do is "lie", since they have no...

It's more time than I have these days. I'm working chronologically through my Steam backlog and I'm in 2017 and losing ground.

It doesn't even take visible rotation in a heel hook to snap an ACL. If it looks gnarly to an observer there is a 100% likely hood of significant damage.

Posting here because the Grappling thread is dead. This is what tapping was invented for, kids... This idiot's foot was rotated 270 degrees from his knee at various points in the match during the SIX MINUTES that Musumeci was cranking on the heel hook.

Anyone have experience with 529 plan rollovers? I had one for my son that I started funding in a state with an income tax deduction for contributions. I no longer live there, and for sanity I want to consolidate all my assets in a single portal and would like to roll that plan over into a new...

He's an ophthalmological surgeon; I'm sure he's fine. I asked what he did with the pieces and he said he gives them to friends/family because if he included the cost of his own time they'd be astronomically expensive even in the realm of high-end historical furniture. He's got hundreds of hours...
