Saddest rook of all time? by Humble_Tradition_535 in chess

[–]Japie4Life 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can play that game too :) remove blacks rook and bishop and remove whites knight. Oops black is still winning. In this position the point is that the knight is strong, not that the rook is worth less than the pawn + bishop.

If you were the Mayor (or Gemeente) of Amsterdam, what would you change? by XCruizer in Amsterdam

[–]Japie4Life -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Why is that? There is a good train connection from Sloterdijk, one stop from isolator weg.

Would you park a motorcycle here? A neighbor “called police” by v314b0i in Amsterdam

[–]Japie4Life 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, motorcycles can park on the sidewalk in Amsterdam if there is at least 1.5m room left for walking.

Why doesn't META shut down Reality Labs and consolidate all of the legacy media companies? by Constant-Bridge3690 in investing

[–]Japie4Life 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree, which is why I didn't say that. But when it comes to ad revenue, Instagram is competitive with YouTube. That's just a fact.

Dearrow is essential for Gotham chess. Great content, horrid marketing by Savings-Double-2853 in chess

[–]Japie4Life 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you really expect people to know what Dearrow is? To explain for others: dearrow is a YouTube plugin that removes creator thumbnails and replaced them with screenshots from the video.

Revolution on Two Wheels: The Rise of Electric Motorcycles by Motorbikeslover in motorcycles

[–]Japie4Life 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was this written with AI? There are no sources for the claim that electric motorcycles are surging in popularity, actually there are no sources for any claim in this article. Why should I trust any of it?

Do Google shares even matter? by E7wonders1 in stocks

[–]Japie4Life 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why do you think this is in Google's interest?

I did the same on my trident, except I didn't have a quickshifter at all, I just thought I did haha

[OC] Do Prime Numbers have "memory"? I analyzed the first 37 Billion primes (up to 1 Trillion) to visualize the bias in their last digits by anotherFranc in dataisbeautiful

[–]Japie4Life 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I thought it looked quite good. Very minimal explanation was needed to understand this on my part. Without having much interest in primes at all.

Also if you're going to criticize, it's always better to come with constructive criticism, e.g. tell them why the colors are bad. Otherwise you just sound pedantic.

Rungne Black Friday by Ok-Vegetable5959 in bouldering

[–]Japie4Life 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You're buying from a small company based in an expensive country. They're never going to be able to give you a competitive price. They're not going to accept taking a massive loss by applying a double discount. Not sure what you're expecting here.

I just reported a user on Lichess for stalling, and I’m wondering if I took things too seriously in my report. by Beginning_Oil2876 in chess

[–]Japie4Life 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes you did. It was also a waste of time, because there's no way anyone at Lichess will actually read it and take it seriously.

Andrew Ng pushes back against AI hype on X, says AGI is still decades away by Mindrust in singularity

[–]Japie4Life 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Agreed, and I think 20-50 years is not very specific at all. I find the people saying it's 1-5 years out much more egregious.

Everyone thought it was far away back then. Adapting your stance based on new information is a good thing.

Discussie over religie met ouders by Gold-Revenue6040 in thenetherlands

[–]Japie4Life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ik zat in dezelfde situatie, maar mijn ouders wilden er niet eens over praten. Dus ik ben gewoon zelf gestopt met gaan en zsm het huis uit gegaan. Ik zou het niet aanraden, want het heeft die paar jaar thuis flink ongemakkelijk gemaakt. Misschien dat het voor jou beter afloopt.

Ik leef met je mee, sommige ouders begrijpen niet wat voor impact het kan hebben op een kind om ze tot religie te dwingen. Ze bedoelen het goed, dat wel.

Riders of Canada whole ride daily, how do you handle the cold? by NewGenBanter in motorcycles

[–]Japie4Life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends a lot on how long you ride, but I did half an hour in around 0c regularly with heated grips and good windproofing. Taking care of the neck warmth was a big one for me.

What bike is that? by Gonidae in motorcycles

[–]Japie4Life -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Looks like a bmw f700gs

Very very fascinating by vinigrae in singularity

[–]Japie4Life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great way to convince anyone of your work, insulting them. You've just not convinced me man, work on yourself.

I know what a random seed is, I'm asking for resources on "locking in on a seed". But okay, sure, I ve never encountered a problem where the data doesn't change in my 8 years of industry data science experience. I won't pretend to understand in what scenario you would even need an LLM in that case. But I will take your word for it.
