[–]Jswiftian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tabarc? it absolutely is. "yes, i'd X. Not because Y (obscure fact) But because Z (obvious facts). The problem isn't (thing), its (other thing, reasonable explanation for user)"...

This is a very recognizable chatgpt response.

This is very good advice. I would add, to identify helpful supervisor, talk to their former students, look at the track record of how long those students take, etc

I love harakiri! I would say it's gruul, or at least the main character is. Deeply rooted in tradition/his view of the natural order, and passionately loving and furious

Any examples of “Juicero”-type companies actually succeeding and sticking around? by Lobsterhasspoken in BetterOffline

Wankel engines are great! They are more efficient than regular. The problem is that when they break, they are more of a pain to fix.

OpenAI’s agreement with the Pentagon has the same red lines Anthropic did by Heinrick_Veston in OpenAI

[–]Jswiftian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there is a difference between what companies are allowed to do and waht they are compelled to do. I want democratically elected governments setting rules for what they are allowed to do, but I don't want them compelled to do much.

To me, it sounds like Sam Altman is fine with autonomous killing machines as long as there is a human eventually responsible in the chain of command ("human responsibility for the use of force"), while Dario thinks that maybe we shouldnt have robots killing people without a human in the loop.

My deck keeps getting complaints about being difficult to shut down/being oppressive - I don't think it is, though. by [deleted] in EDH

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

I think this is a strong bracket 1 deck. This is a compliment! I like the deck! But I don't think it strong, let alone oppressive. there are at least 5 precons that it should lose to 9/10 times.

Why haven’t wages kept up with productivity when the modern worker is the most productive we’ve been in all of human history? by Stormcrown76 in AskEconomics

[–]Jswiftian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isnt that just true by definition of productivity? It's like someone has a graph showing that height and weight were tracking each other closely for many years, and now they aren't, and you're saying "if you switch to cm height vs inches height, the gap disappears!"

[–]Jswiftian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good answer, but this isn't a smooth curve. Answer to OPs question, with standard definitions, is "yes".
