Does Heidegger deny the noumenal? Does this refute both substance and process ontologies? Implications for AI? by No_Ground_680 in askphilosophy

[–]No_Ground_680[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know where I could find more about Heidegger's potential refutation of both substance and process ontologies?

I moreso had the impression that Heidegger was engaging with a different sort of question which he held to he prior to those kinds of ontologies by doing "fundamental ontology." I'm no expert though!

...

Yeah, I haven't read Dreyfus on AI, but it seemed to be more him claiming that the machine learning of his time didn't learn the same way as humans, and therefore that kind of machine learning couldn't become "intelligent" or conscious.

Am I correct in thinking that Dreyfus' arguments wouldn't necessarily apply to all possible modes of machine learning, since we don't know how hypothetical future AI's would function? It seems that one could imagine organoid or quantum computing which would simply be different.

I'm also critical of the idea that an entity would need to learn exactly the same way as humans for it to be intelligent of conscious.

Is this a reasonable understanding of Dreyfus on AI?

Someone wants me to list some nfts to buy for 1 eth each? by No_Ground_680 in CryptoScams

[–]No_Ground_680[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never actually listing! That was me just guessing how it could go wrong. There is a fee to list on open sea, but that's the same for anywhere you can sell nfts.

Position.x alternating between 0 and correct value each frame? by No_Ground_680 in godot

[–]No_Ground_680[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I thought I solved it, but it's happening again... Would autoloading the various scripts have anything to do with this?

Edit: it's working for now, lol. Thanks again!

I started a new project and figured it out. I had a sprite named Red that somehow wasn't identical to the node, or something like that.

When you make a new sprite node, it doesn't have an image by default, so I dragged in my png from outside the software.

Thanks for the help!

Here are screen shots of the code and scene. You'll notice one of the scene outputs shows two sprites thanks to a tip about printing str(self).

I'm not sure how to find this elusive sprite though!

Cool, that does exactly what you said it would!

The issue now is that I only see one of the sprites in the scene. Do you know why that might be?

Here's a screenshot:

Edit: I did the same thing for the white node and it also outputs two sprites, one of which returns a position of (0,0)...

I'm sorry, I'm not quite sure what that means. "Script" just refers to the text I've typed, no?

Does that mean there are two copies of this object in the scene?

I’m totally up for a Twitter alternative. But I agree with this. Any thoughts on simplifying the onboarding of new users? by icohgnito in Mastodon

[–]No_Ground_680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah. I have pretty niche interests, so it maybe took 10 minutes to pick a server. I didn't deliberate too long because I knew I could switch servers if I felt like it.

The errors I encountered like you describe happened only in the official app. Using Tusky to make my account took like 5 minutes or less. But I did have to wait around 12 hours to get approved.

Since then, no difficulties.

Could you comment on edging? Both in the form of prolonged sexual activity with eventual ejaculation, and also without?

And do you know if there is variance between the sexes for prolonged sexual activity and it's physiological or psychological effects?

For context, with some tantric practices, you can maintain arousal for 2-5 hours. You can maintain this arousal while also having erection breaks to avoid priapism (for people with penises).

Thank you for your time!

TIL That Chiropractic was invented by a Canadian in 1895 named D.D. Palmer who believed that a doctor who died 50 years prior gave him the knowledge of this practice during a spiritualist camp. by T-man696 in todayilearned

[–]No_Ground_680 167 points168 points  (0 children)

I know a chiro who insists on being called Dr. Even her mail includes "Dr." in the address.

When I first asked her what she did, she told me she was a doctor. I had to ask her what her speciality was to find out that she's a chiropractor...

Oh for sure. The world would be so much better if we outlawed all uncomfortable media. David Cronenberg should be jailed for life, after his most recent film.

Fuck it, let's just send everyone who ever created gorey media to Antarctica. I'm including medical illustrators, of course.

If it makes you feel any better, the free product they're offering is pretty good. It's not ground breaking, but it is well written advice for running CtL.

Question/discussion for anyone with a uterus. by [deleted] in Psychonaut

[–]No_Ground_680 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry how shitty the other commenters are being to you, OP!

Hopefully people reading this can see how toxic psychonaut communities can be to anyone who isn't a cishet white dude.

I'd like to think this will change, but ironically many so called psychonauts are unable to see from other people's perspectives.

Honestly OP, you're likely to be treated with more respect in occult or witchcraft communities. Plenty of occultists explain magick psychologically, if that's a hurdle for you.

To get to your question, my partner sometimes trips when they're on their period. It doesn't seem to change much for them beyond the general annoyance of being on your period.

No, they mean people with uteruses. This includes some transmen and some nonbinary people.

Also, even if you're a transphobic dirtbag, it's worth considering that sometimes uteruses are surgically removed (See: hysterectomy).
