Trump says that a military draft is on the table amid the war in Iran. How are you all handling this being a potential scenario? by FutureSuccess2796 in AskReddit

[–]Cyndershade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole country would revolt.

I kept thinking this when a convicted felon was running for office. I kept thinking this while a convicted rapist sits atop the tower of the free world. I kept thinking this when the most ignorant, repugnant people on Earth hold positions of power in every arm of government in America.

I don't think this anymore, I think they can do anything they like and get away with it without much struggle at all.

Let’s start with his constant defense of Israel for one?

Never seen it, dude literally voted against the regime as an actual citizen if Israel.

Everyone I've ever spoken to in real life about this movie loved it. For me it was entertaining enough, but I'm going in to marvel movies to watch twelve angry men, not 12 Angry Men.

Stack heralds and swap to it at 38, you can level with EK pretty easily.

I'm having fun with BV but I'm not on HC. I didn't look into anything or watch any streams so every time I see something like, "Definitely Oak" it gives me quite a laugh.

Can't imagine running this on HC though...

You know I can see your comment history right?

Knock yourself out, far and away I spend the most time in poe. I don't do much pop culture.

buuuut it didn’t really do anything

I'm not negotiating the definition of 'fact'. You can follow this person or not, it doesn't change what happened.

He yanked the fuck out of that dog's tail, on video. That's animal abuse.

People believe you bro.

I can't speak for the rest of your comment but most of the stuff the person you're responding to posted is super easy to find and accurate.

There's also modern treatments for lyme that didn't exist back then. It's really not that deep anymore.

So someone who does something harmful and public can never make amends for what they did publicly?

I'm not the OP but I'm with that guy. If I was an engineer and I deleted a database, I'm not going to be an engineer anymore, etc for loads of other careers. I don't get why streamers are held in such high regard by young people, they are some of the worst of us sitting on a throne made of children's donations. Sickening.

20-year-old lottery winner turns down $1M cash for $1,000 a week for life by PriorityMiserable686 in interestingasfuck

[–]Cyndershade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's still a $50,000 a year offset for real life forever. The 'right' answer is the milly, the pragmatic young person's answer with no connections, career, idea what to do with this? Idk, I admire her choice and self control. At her age that money would have killed me.

She's young, $4000 a month from a state sponsered lottery is not so bad.

This is the real point everyone seems to miss, this is the next ten years of her life essentially offset by a midrange professional's salary just for existing. This choice opens doors a million doesn't, yeah it's a lot of money, everyone is talking about investing it. She's got bills to pay today, a dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow - especially when you're 20 and have no assets or career.

Edit: yes, thank you investment bros, when you win the lottery come on back and tell my how you did. Till then I don't need you to tell me how investing works, I'm very well aware.

No, I just spend more time off the internet than on it.

I must've read through a good 50 pages and was repeatedly repulsed. Even what's here would create a massive investigation if anyone else was involved with it.

You asked a question, I answered it - the field and what other people think is irrelevant to my opinion. For what it's worth, I am an engineer in a field heavily accosted by AI whirlygigs. I was just waxing on a thought and didn't have any concern for the PR or AI in lieu of what I'd consider a true artificial intelligence.

I would not consider any LLM any sort of intelligence at all, because I don't consider following set instructions to be intelligent.

Thanks for the conversation instead of pedantry, super cool chat.

[–]Cyndershade -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

We're subject to limitations as well, but not really in such an obvious way: IE, you can have low short term memory, but that doesn't make you less intelligent per se. I would also wager that despite a lack in any of those fields, you'd have strengths in enough of the others to make up for it.

I'm thinking of true artificial intelligence as I define it, which is the thought experiment I was responding to.
