As a general rule, I don’t recommend using ChatGPT or any LLM to learn about what to do in life and death situations. Even if (by chance) you happen to get real and useful results, isn’t your life more valuable than the time it would take to find an actual answer from an expert?
“Yeah, bitch, Qui-Gon just kidnapped and used me because he couldn’t afford a ship part, and abandoned my mother with barely a second thought. You expect me not to dwell on this shit? You’re a bunch of monsters.”
…is how I always wished he responded.
I’ve been using my MX Master 3S for three years now, and while I love it, the right click recently got really wonky. It only registers the click like 6 out of 10 times, which is unacceptable for my job.
Doubt it’s still in warranty, but I plan to try to get them to replace it. I was thinking about trying the vertical MX Master instead, but I love the magnetic scroll wheel on the normal MX Master too much. I don’t think I can go back to a mouse with a “normal” scroll wheel.
I’m glad they reported on this, but the author needs to look into federal regulations for people who work on or hold federal contracts. There’s a ton of qualified language in there that makes it clear they didn’t do a ton of research. It’s actually much more black and white than they make it seem.
I’ve worked as a federal contractor, and before I could even start onboarding, they do an intensive background check and interview where they ask probing questions about substance use (among many other things) and then they check up on your answers with a number of third parties (acquaintances, colleagues etc). Nearly without exception, if you want a job in the civil service, any prior drug use is almost always automatically disqualifying. Telling the truth about it doesn’t win you any favors with investigators either, so the general recommendation is that if you’ve smoked weed in the past, you must consistently lie about it, or you won’t get a federal job (or contracting job).
And that’s just weed. This guy does and talks about doing hard drugs in public.
The fact that it doesn’t seem to be a problem for someone who has pocketed such absurd amounts of taxpayer money from federal contracts, to openly use schedule 1 drugs in public, is one of the best examples of the legal double standards the rich have come to expect. Anyone who isn’t a billionaire would be prosecuted and jailed for the behavior Musk brags about. And they’d obviously never be awarded a federal contract.
Drugs should be legal. But until they are, these double standards have got to go.
I stopped listening to a daily news podcast partly because the hosts did this live on the air. They’d ask ChatGPT for a statistic, then say “ChatGPT says it’s 37% of Americans” or whatever. They never fact-checked it, and based on how consistently wrong LLMs have been in my experience, it called into question everything else they said.
It’s a great way to instantly lose trust in another person’s abilities.
This seems great. I hope this will include Japanese live action content too, which to me is really underrated around the world.
I just wish production companies would start including English subtitles with all their dramas and movies. I know it’s often considered an unnecessary expense so it’s not included in the contract, but I’m an English-speaking American and I love Japanese media. I usually have to wait for some kind stranger to do their own custom subtitling before I can enjoy the content, often years after the initial release.
I’m slowly trying to learn Japanese, but I doubt I’ll ever be good enough to follow some of that hilariously fast-paced dialogue I love so much…
Right on, that’s my bad. I read too far between the lines.
My family still has pretty significant generational trauma from surviving the Holocaust, so the genocide going on in Palestine is quite black and white for us. It’s wrong, Israel’s behavior is monstrous and immoral, and it needs to stop. The Palestinians never deserved this. We talk about it constantly.
Your question kinda implies that we all must have family deployed in a war zone though (unless I misunderstood), and that’s not the case. I’m American. I do have some Israeli relatives who I won’t ever speak to again because they support the genocide, but they’ve all aged out of the army.
There was nothing racist about this comment. The West has provided billions of dollars of unconditional support to the racist, Islamophobic, child-killing, amoral, death-obsessed state of Israel. And I’m a Jew, in case you were considering tossing the antisemitism card.
If you need cold hard numbers, 82% of the Israeli public supports the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.
The West’s behavior can of course be accurately described as colonial, neocolonial, or imperialist. Choose whatever murderous exploitative term you want, but please wake up and see the world for what it is. The West has directly supported the murder of countless people.
I hate this shit.
If I had to guess though, it’s probably because whatever lowly congressional staffer that exported the document didn’t have the Acrobat Pro license, because that takes a whole separate procurement process. Or some other stupid shit like that.
I come back to this problem every year or so because I’m never satisfied with my music metadata. Years ago I had my musicbrainz picard settings dialed in really nicely, where I could drag folder over and it would spit out the right thing like 7 out of 10 times. It still required a lot of doubled checking and manual oversight though, so I was never satisfied.
I tried mediamonkey for a while, because it has decent metadata support and plugs into most of the expected APIs. But when all is said and done, all these tools use the same data sources, and none of them are exactly consistent with each other so matches aren’t as straightforward as they should be.
Lidar never quite did it for me, so I haven’t looked at my install in a couple years. But based on @[email protected]’s recommendation I’ll try a fresh install and see if get I better results this time. I’m always happy in the arr interfaces.
Yeah, I totally understand the potential creepiness factor with coworkers, but I just try to read the room, and as far as I know, I haven’t creeped anyone out. I find the heart emoji should be used sparingly regardless of gender. My (female) manager recently wished me well while I was sick, and a heart emoji was the perfect response.
Don’t limit yourself like that. I use hearts, peace signs, horns, spock hands, thumbs up, whatever I feel like. There’s no need to add gender to this stuff.
This may be splitting hairs, but this is being pushed on EPA scientists by the political appointees. This is why the politicization of these agencies is so critically dangerous. EPA scientists are incredibly talented and their recommendations are largely driven by good science. They know their shit. This is not that, this is political appointees forcing “interpretations” that the scientists themselves would undoubtedly take issue with.
I’m not making excuses, this is bad no matter how you slice it, but blame should be directed at the political appointees.
I recommend watching his recent congressional testimony, and then see if you still feel this way. You’re right, this is not the right job for him, but I strongly disagree that he has good intentions and is a good person. Everything I’ve seen on him convinces me otherwise.
You’re correct. The 90s has always been and will always be ten years ago.
I really like this. Evokes a tree and an atomic mushroom cloud. Was that the idea? Regardless, really lovely.
So now we can legally buy fully automatic machine guns, but not a lifesaving miracle of medical science, that we all paid for.
Republicans are a death cult, through and through.
Yup, and that’s just one of many things that make me confident in my impulse to never trust OpenAI or any company that is just so obviously a money-grabbing grift.
[OpenAI and Microsoft] came to agree in 2023 that AGI will be achieved once OpenAI has developed an AI system that can generate at least $100 billion in profits. Source.
What a ridiculous way of thinking.
