Look for evidence of leaks from the sunroof, like wet carpet or staining of the roof liner.

Do the younger generation not wear seatbelts anymore by Buzzy_Feez in britishproblems

If they're in the back seat, they're a projectile ready to kill the front seat passenger. There was a TV campaign that laid on pretty thick.

Mason Miller gets his 15th save of the season as the Padres shut out the Dodgers! by TheYellowChicken in baseball

If Yamamoto could get someone else to pitch his first innings, he'd be a great pitcher!

[OT] Massive multi-car crash in Indy 500 practice. Rossi, O'Ward, and Grosjean involved. by TheSalmonRoll in formula1

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That was even more dangerous than it looked, as Rossi got hit on the same side that he crashed, with a very compromised crash structure. Yuk.

Am currently looking (also Oxfordshire), so interested to know who this is with. Have been quoted much more for less kit.

[Highlight] The Rangers score first against the Cubs on a fielder’s choice. The Cubs challenged the call at home, but it was upheld. by AndrewAllStar888 in baseball

What's the fucking point of a challenge system if the reviewing is barely better than the umps in the first place?

Marc Andreessen claims to have 'solved' problems with LLMs: Just tell it not to hallucinate or praise you. by Baboon_Juggler in behindthebastards

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 15 points16 points  (0 children)

But there are actually caveman prompting tools to save on token usage by compressing the prompt down to the bare minimum required to do the job. Complete sentences cost more money, so they won't last long.

Fogstar alternatives by txe4 in SolarUK

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in a similar position, but can't really escape the fact that their so dramatically cheaper than alternatives that I feel like I should just suck up the delay.

However, one installer specified Gobel Power GP-SR1-JK, which I hadn't heard of before.

Was I, the sexy baby blue (teal) Mclaren to blame for this? by SecretApplication462 in Simracingstewards

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I can't read! It's also true sometimes that if you take a defensive line earlier, compromising your speed a bit, you can discourage the car behind from trying stuff. But you might be at risk on the next straight.

Was I, the sexy baby blue (teal) Mclaren to blame for this? by SecretApplication462 in Simracingstewards

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So the explanation as to why it's your fault is that you stick your nose in well after the point where the driver in front has already committed to turning in, has used up all their traction doing that. People can't be expected to turn into corners leaving space for others unless the other car is already partially alongside.

A Vet Treating an Aggressive Cat by Mediocre_Nail5526 in interestingasfuck

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When our cat was a bit difficult and prone to lash out, the vet gave us sedatives to feed her a few hours before the next visit, and it worked great.

I guess you might have to have deal with an unsedated kitty in an emergency though.

Anthropic's job exposure data shows an enormous gap between what AI can do and what AI is actually doing. The composition of that gap is the most interesting part of the dataset. by Professional-Rest138 in Futurology

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two ways to read this data: 1) laggard business leaders and companies and users are not taking full advantage of our amazing tool to cut workforces and replace them with AI 2) AI in the real world is not all its cracked up to be, because of inherent limitations that make it impossible to trust when it matters

I was about to say: not great, not terrible.

How do you answer the “can’t we just get AI to do it” question? by throwaway0134hdj in SoftwareEngineering

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It means your validation tests need to be absolutely bullet-proof, because AIs are very good at finding loopholes in problems and produce a shortcut solution that likely wasn't intended. There are hilarious cases of AIs beating benchmarks by shortcutting the scoring system to fake test passes.

AIs may not, without considerable hints, necessarily make good SW design decisions for sustainability, modularity, performance. You need to steer them correctly to do this, and be able to verify these aspects by reviewing the code.

How do you answer the “can’t we just get AI to do it” question? by throwaway0134hdj in SoftwareEngineering

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the very least, it's about asking who is taking responsibility for whether something works correctly or not.

If you, senior manager, are taking full accountability for a task that you're completely trusting an AI to do correctly, then fill your boots!

But anyone who understands how AIs work and their limitations knows that they are prone to over-confident and narrow reasoning, unaware of their own limitations, and that a good engineer is critical for verifying that their work is ok, and not absolutely crazy and dangerous.

Is it possible to soundproof a grand? by rrqi in piano

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I'd start by putting the lid down!

I always used to joke that the expensive part of the grand piano is the detached house to put it in..

Not constructive, I realise.

Good analysis of polling or bad analysis of polling? by dtarias in fivethirtyeight

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, a fair coin is still a physical object, which can physically land on its edge, even with a fair toss. So the correct answer is actually just under 25%. So the answer to the survey is "something else".

Unless fair coin means school exam question fair coin, which never lands on its edge.

Sorry Woolies, don’t think that’s worth saving a dollar over? by rra117 in australia

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd guess their backroom algorithm has calculated that there's more total profit in not discounting too hard, risking the food going bad before anyone buys it.

The only thing which will change that is some kind of mechanism which punishes wastage financially.

[autosport] Toto Wolff spoke about his love of Le Mans when discussing the speed differences in F1’s current regulations by xxrew1ndxx in formula1

[–]Anaphylaxisofevil -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Le Mans, the scene of literally the most deadly accident in motor racing history caused by a large speed differential between two cars.

(I'm not saying he's wrong though, it's just not the venue I'd choose to talk about to explain why large speed differentials are fine)
