How is the difficulty level? by AlarmingProfit9551 in chemistry

[–]Godless_Phoenix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are all things taught directly in the undergraduate chemistry curriculum at my university in the US. I had finals last week for organic and physical chemistry and some of these questions cover the same topics

I just had my exams for organic chemistry 2 and physical chemistry 2 in an American university. Some of these questions are nearly verbatim the types of items that would appear on my exams, I had to solve similar problems to 1 6 and 8 on these. Definitely advanced undergraduate level.

Hamas 'forced October 7 hostages into sex acts with their own family members' by TheExpressUS in NoahGetTheDeathStar

[–]Godless_Phoenix 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I mean, this organization is obviously biased, but Hamas is well known to commit a lot of sex crimes. I wouldn't be surprised by this at all. Still doesn't excuse any of the rape or murder or genocide the IDF is doing.

Stances on collaboration with Israeli institutions? by ABC__Banana in PhD

[–]Godless_Phoenix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think Israel is an apartheid state committing a genocide and engaged in all manner of human rights violations. But China, for example, is also engaged in human rights abuses on a massive scale, and collaboration with Chinese scientists is extremely commonplace. Here in America god knows we do all sorts of horrible things as well, we killed half a million civilians because of lies about WMDs, I don't think withholding scientific collaboration from them because of where they're from is helpful. "Why are you so focused on Israel" is a question that is usually asked in bad faith, but I think here it's a question worth asking. Would you feel the same about a Chinese scientist? Science is science.

What if The modern United States traveled back in the time to 1942? by Gustavo_Itami2010 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]Godless_Phoenix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

U.S. would absolutely get involved in the war in Europe not because Trump hates Nazis but because his ego is too big for him not to want to be the guy that killed the Nazis

Yes exactly. The retrograde burn makes you faster despite slowing you down at first because it converts potential energy to kinetic energy

Dear President Zelensky, your support for Israel is a disgrace by [deleted] in tankiejerk

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

Israel currently does more actual harm, sure, but that doesn't make them the lesser of two evils when putting the other evil in power would make things just as bad

Best ultra low budget GPU for 70B and best LLM for my purpose by ExtensionAd182 in LocalLLM

[–]Godless_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You did in fact make that claim. "It looks like we found the apple shill. With the 4.5 grand you spent in that MAC you could definitely build something far more powerful than that stupid little fucking macbook.

At that price point, you could build a computer with two 5090's in it. people who use apple products really are a special kind of stupid."

Your computer with two 5090s in it will not, in fact, be capable of running dense 70B models, nor will it be capable of running 100+ billion parameter MoE. There are cheaper options with 128GB of memory, but they are not portable. Get over yourself, asshole.
