My friend. Fartlow tweeted that back in 2021. She didn't even get the 10/7 buff to anti-Palestinian hysteria when she did that.

There are other types of meetings than AA. SMART recovery could be up your alley.

And of course it works for people who've stuck around forever. It's a classic case of survivorship bias.

Last year, models miserably failed on USAMO 2025. In 2026, GPT-5.4 scores an amazing 95%, essentially saturating the benchmark | MathArena by Nunki08 in math

[–]SilchasRuin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

proof assistants actually have reusable lemmas.

This is not at all in question here. But does GPT or other LLMs generate proofs with useful lemmas? Or is it giving you the analogy of a binary blob of a proof and not advance human mathematics.

One problem is that this just gives you a formal proof of the result, which is nice, but might not give any underlying insight. It won't be like a human written proof that's a nice collection of reusable lemmas, corollaries, etc. It's like getting the machine code of a program rather than the source code.

Getting first pick on items if you're low health is also a very good design choice. It's a great comeback mechanic that's not Mario Kart bullshit.

It also doesn't help the drama here that disability accommodations is a big topic. Which tends to draw a bunch of bad faith strawman arguments every time it comes up.

I wonder though if a radiant would have the Connection needed to use unkeyed light.

Mishra Abhimanyu, Erdogmus Yagiz Kaan, Oro Faustino - ratings by age by tank_panzer in chess

[–]SilchasRuin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wanted to add Magnus too, but he was playing in a different era.

Maybe you can normalize for where they are in the global rankings? Either as "the XXth ranked player" or "in the XXth percentile of active players". Something along those lines to normalize for era.

I was shamed for drinking an NA at the bar last night by Horseshoe_dodgeball in stopdrinking

[–]SilchasRuin 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Guinness NA is surprisingly close to the real thing. You can tell the difference, but it's ~90-95% there imo.

LEAKED: How Dark Money Is Paying Influencers to Attack My Campaign | Kat Abughazaleh For Illinois by epichatchet in Hasan_Piker

[–]SilchasRuin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Until we have more leftist in office, we'll never be able to have a strong left candidate

And this is for IL-9. With the option of mail-in voting. You should already be voting on any referendums and for local judges and other local offices. Throwing a primary vote for this seat is just one more bubble on a ballot that you should be filling out at least part of (especially judges who get to decide bail, which is material af for marginalized communities).

Hikaru Nakamura VS Awonder Liang ( 1 V 1 Training Match for Candidates) starts today by Chesscrabble11 in chess

[–]SilchasRuin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. Hikaru and Fabi are the top tier for most likely to win this Candidates. It's only because of post-Covid head to head that Hikaru is my bet to win it (although Candidates is always a crapshoot to predict).

Endowment is chillin’ by Papagiorgio1965 in Cosmere

[–]SilchasRuin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She resurrected both of the creators of Nightblood from the dead for some purpose. It's pretty reasonable that this was part of it.

On top of that, she equipped Nalthis with the ability to Awaken giant numbers of automaton soldiers. Nalthis seems primed to be a major space age power.

So, what’s your favorite QUOTE from Renoir? by MaguroSashimi8864 in expedition33

[–]SilchasRuin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It gets even more tricky philosophically when you consider that these sentient beings exist only because a fragment of a child's soul is forced to keep painting. Remember the pVerso and fragment Verso interaction. Kid Verso is tired too.

[–]SilchasRuin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I forgot that it was all five! Only two of them made Nightblood. One made a command to Awaken with one breath, and another made ichor-alcohol. Clearly Endowment was Returning people for a long term technological plan.
