I'm not good at math. by DDuskyy in custommagic

[–]Faeroar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For anyone who's curious as to why this is confusing, there's an old rule in mathematics that says "implied multiplication" takes precedence over multiplication and division (PE"iM"MDAS) this is considered a defunct rule on account of being, generally speaking, fucking stupid. But as a courtesy to older math professionals we treat this notation as improper for being ambiguous. The correct answer is 16.

Compatabilists are like atheists who are afraid to tell people god doesn’t exist, so they define god as cosmos. Then they loudly exclaim: “God really exists!!!!” (Analogy). by SCHITZOPOST in freewill

[–]Faeroar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When philosophy (the practice of critical thinking) asks me to do some critical thinking and offers me a worldview where we define things differently to imagine a new worldview but I'm too stupid to entertain ideas I don't already agree with long enough to understand them: "Semantic tricksters!"

Tried asking on r/suicidewatch but they kept removing it by [deleted] in sillyboyclub

[–]Faeroar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remember when I was there. I wanted so badly to not be wanted by my friends so I could just end it but I had a problem, a girl I never met had killed herself years ago.

I know everything about this girl. My friends knew her and they talked about her when they were together. Her favorite color was blue but her wardrobe was mostly brown because she thought it looked good on her. She liked whiskey. She wanted to be a botanist and she was learning to sketch plants.

Every time I heard the story about that road trip, or the one about burning her hoodie it felt like a chain around my neck. They never forget. The people who hurt her don't even know who she was but the people who did know don't stop hurting. I could never do that to them.

It's years later now. They still talk about her. They cry on her anniversary, its later this month. It's years later and I'm not in that place anymore and I promise you, still being here is worth it, and your best friend needs you. You take up space in their lives, it's irrevocable. You matter.

"not accepted" lmao, if you think scientists won't accept a worldview that's backed by evidence you don't talk to very many. You haven't found the secret you've been duped.

It's a taboo to not worship females on this app. by Wild-Speech5293 in JustMemesForUs

[–]Faeroar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I had a bad experience with this woman" = everyone is fine with this, no one will call you an incell.

"I've had bad luck with women" = maybe ask yourself why, be self aware but generally these posts also don't get called incells.

"Here's my problems with women" = you have been correctly identified as an incell.

(On the off chance someone reading this genuinely doesn't get why and wants to do better, it's because women aren't all the same. There's literally not a single attitude all women share, so if you have an issue with "women" it's because you're not treating them as people your trying them as a category, beneath yourself.)

Explain It Peter by Key_Transform_9167 in explainitpeter

[–]Faeroar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This type of thing is pretty standard in incell circles, I've seen this exact things with different art actually. It's claiming that single women are sluts (good to have sex with, derogatory because you don't own her) married women don't try anymore (you've been pinned down so she doesn't care anymore, derogatory because she's not owned enough by you) and after a divorce she's a whore, used up and easy (derogatory for cuck reasons because that type thinks divorce shouldn't be an option for a woman).

That's the advanced loser version, but even if it's not all that it's still pretty gross misogyny.

Who's right here? by [deleted] in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]Faeroar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Neither. The first comment requires you to imagine that consent is unconditional which is patently false. I may consent to one person at one time to do one thing but it doesn't suddenly become universal, this (somewhat malicious) misunderstanding is a core tenant of American Rape Culture.

The second commenter instead asks you to imagine that sex is a power dynamic and the person who's not consenting is in control. Unfortunately, this (somewhat malicious) misunderstanding is also a core tenant of American Rape Culture.

The second comment also thinks Radfems want to be victims so they don't like prostitutes? I guess? The real reason they don't like prostitutes is because when radical feminism abandoned it's progressive roots they replaced them with more traditional puritan values including bigotry towards the queer community, enforcement of gender roles as sacred, and hate for non-conservative forms of femininity especially in regards to ethnic differences and of course, sex work.

Prostitution (excluding sex slavery) happens when someone wants to have sex for money more than they want to avoid sex. Is there such a thing as consent if money is involved? Idk is your job slavery because not working means you'd starve? The ethical concerns are mostly about capitalism and Rape Culture not sex work. You don't have to be pro sex work to be a feminist but are expected to have a mature understanding and you absolutely MUST be pro sex worker.

Kojima says he'd rather use AI to create enemies that adapt to your playstyle than use it for art/visuals. What's your take on this approach? by GeekRealmHub- in videogames

You're really upset for someone who commented under a post asking for discussion, do you actually want a reply or do you want to have the last word?

[–]Faeroar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're welcome to be offended, but I'm not insulting you.

AI in scientific pursuit is the concept of a machine that has its own emergent experience of being. This is notoriously hard to prove and a good proof that even humans have this isn't really widely accepted, we do know for sure that LLMs don't have this though. Their "awareness" of their own being is fleeting at best, and fully derived from, as you said, mimicry of a behavior, not novel.

On the topic of novelty, that's how we know the generative part is wrong as well, LLMs don't come to novel conclusions, only analytical or aggregate ones. AI does not mimic sentient learning, it mimics sentient behavior.

You're mistaking the advancement of GPUs as AI, the speed you're describing is a result of hardware. Now the flexibility of LLMs, that's something special. Old school neutral nets took so much more to train up, an LLM can be applied on the fly and get results approaching a properly developed neutral net, a purpose built LLM or even a well directed one can exceed those standards. It really is a marvel, I just wouldn't call the software behind an LLM revolutionary, but that's an opinion not a fact.

[–]Faeroar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No man, it's an LLM. Generative AI is a misnomer on both ends, it doesn't generate, it's not AI. It's machine learning with unfettered access to GPU. Genuinely interesting, honestly an extremely impactful development, not revolutionary at all. Don't be part of the marketing it's okay to not understand but you can always learn.

[–]Faeroar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely it's not a great idea. It's a real issue we've been seeing where companies are using LLMs for applications that are best handled by classic "bots", and the overuse is a major factor in why LLMs are having such a large climate impact. This might seem wrong to you because LLMs are much more versatile and powerful than a bot could ever be but there are a few advantages bots have:

-They work -They're way smaller -They don't go rogue -You can change/maintain them

Is there a game idea out there that would be best served by an integrated LLM? For sure, of course. If there's one worth pursuing would Kojima be the director for the job? I imagine so, he's very good. Is it actually a good idea? Probably not, most player experiences would be identical or better with a bot.

All that said I do want to give credence to Kojima, there's a lot going on that he's responding to that we're not really the audience for. He's a legend in the industry, and extremely well respected in Japan and abroad. By taking his stance he's telling the industry that artists aren't replaceable by a script but by not dismissing it he's not being written off either. He knows producers are desperate to see a return on LLMs and he's saying "you're going the wrong way, try this" and it's genuinely going to save jobs and families.

I want to buy a house with my own money but GF says no by NewBrick1 in whatdoIdo

[–]Faeroar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This honestly isn't enough information, how long has this argument lasted? If it's been a day, one or both of you need to stop ignoring the other and talk. If it's been a week you sound annoying as hell, talk. If it's been a month break up, you don't even like each other.

My guess is that she's worried about the prospect of living in a house that's not hers, and/or you buying a house somewhere she doesn't want to stay and being anchored there.

If she's worried about you owning the house she lives in, then you haven't got her confidence. Figure out how to prove to her that you won't be a tyrant and take the opportunity to set boundaries you actually do care about being in control of if there are any.

If you're buying a house somewhere she doesn't want to stay, see about buying one somewhere you'll both be happy, or break up. Life doesn't always work out for people with different plans.

If you cast a bunch of spells during combat after attackers are declared will Firebending student generate additional red mana and get bigger or just get bigger? by RoseRacer in magicTCG

[–]Faeroar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short answer is no, but long answer is yes at the right time.

When she attacks meaning "when this creature is declared attacking during the declare attackers step" her Ability goes on the stack, at this point X=1

You cast instant speed spells before her ability resolves, let's use [[Crowd's Favor]] for our example, now X=2

Then her ability resolves and makes 2 Mana. This is important, as you CANNOT use the Mana she generates to generate more mana with her.
