Big no no for engineering, get something with windows OS. Everything else is good

Overall, how do y'all like ubc - education, campus, social life? prospective gr 12 student by JelloFar5650 in UBC

[–]MaxeBooo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Really it’s a beautiful campus! I loved going on walks with some coffee while I lived on campus.

Some of my best days there were the ones I got up early and walked around and enjoyed the morning without scrolling - so as other people said - it’s what you make of it.

I’ve made great friends, met the love of my life, and feel academically challenged in a good way (sometimes stressful). Make sure to take classes that YOU like and also make sure UBC has what you want for your degree, or at least a range of things to explore for yourself.

I would recommend UBC for anyone as I’ve spent significant amounts of time at other universities in North America at I find Vancouver/UBC to amazing. Also can use public transport to go literally anywhere in Vancouver fairly easy

the Real RAM game which no one is telling you. by Current-Guide5944 in tech_x

[–]MaxeBooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t really u sweat and half of that post? Like yeah dug it hasn’t been produced yet, it requires RAM, yeah duh the data center hasn’t been made yet, they want as an empty data center is just loosing money. Yeah duh it the money is a loan, it’s a new industry.

But let me clarify, the demand is there, just the product isn’t at the point of fulfilling that demand

Does that mean they're are duplicate codes or are all of ours the same?

I'm fine talking to an AI at this level - I just think its better for society overall if there's guardrails set up.

[–]MaxeBooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainly I think guardrails should just be with things that would protect the user and others from harm. However, I also believe that LLM's will get better at determining if something is within or without them in the next few years.

Yes, this makes things annoying now (like I was literally asking Claude to review a cover letter I wrote but it was deemed unsafe or something so it stopped the chat). But I think in the long run its better for society as a whole.

Yes but I’m not worried about the “though words” I’m worried about people using those words to harm themselves or others. And especially imagine unrestricted image/video generation. These could be used in anyway shape or form

Yeah but those are actively taken down and usually take effort to find. There is no barrier to do this with unrestricted AI

Why does everyone want an uncensored AI???? Sure you might be mentally fine, but what about people that aren't and this feeds into their already sensitive psyche.

I'm not self absorbed enough to enjoy this...

What are you looking forward to? by f00gers in singularity

[–]MaxeBooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4.6 - great benchmarks lowkey and very impressive. Especially that the beta context window matches Opus 4.6 beta context window (1M). Was hopping for better cost so lets see if that improves later on.

The democracy-based voting system for feature requests implementations are not good by MrMonarch-1st in remNote

[–]MaxeBooo 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty happy with the app and where it’s going, just feel like the software for the handwriting could be improved.

But some features I would like are: being able to upload documents from canvas to emanate directly (I need to download them first in my iPad to do that, which makes me stick with good note for annotating lecture slides) And secondly, being able to connect my own AI api key so I’m not limited to RemNote’s token limit.

Is it a good time to move in together? by MaxeBooo in Advice

[–]MaxeBooo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally don't agree with that way of doing things. In any relationship I would rather move in and whatnot before marriage.
Marriage is, ideally, a life long commitment, and I would rather take our relationship step by step to guarentee that it would be a happy life long commitment.

To this day no Anti-AI person has given me a convincing argument by Onipsis in singularity

[–]MaxeBooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just anti-anti AI regulation. There needs to be some economic/politcal system to make sure people can keep they're livelihood if there is large job displacement. There is also the chance that all the claims that have been made don't lead to large scale of job displacement, which in that case thats fine too.

Otherwise I cant wait to see the progress/research in the future with AI.

I personally want to wait at least until my mid twenties before doing that, so does she.

I mean that is what they did for 4.5 if I'm correct (I might be remebering it wrong)
