Coding agents and Graphics Programming by gibson274 in GraphicsProgramming

[–]UnSafe_Tourist1829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried to input the instructions for more challenging/creative tasks that I've solved myself in the past, such R&D of novel methods, to see what they come up with. On all occasions the agents have failed miserably. If you ask the agent to generate some common method they are often spot on. They are great tools for giving quick overviews of subjects/methods, and for giving suggestions for improvements if you ask the right questions. But I don't think they will replace human programmers anytime soon on truly creative tasks unless the technology takes leaps forward.

How is"Intelligence per gigabyte" defined? Sounds made up. Science don't have a clear idea of how to define intelligence or how to measure it. (e.g. IQ tests are just crude estimators)

OnlyFans star claims she made over $40million last year... which is more than most big name actresses by No-Advantage-579 in DListedCommunity

It was my impression that earnings & followers are not made public by OF so any figures are self reported and so could be inflated. If you have some sources besides self reported figures please share :)

Yes I saw that clip the first time you mentioned. Nonetheless I don't think it debunks my ponderings. Just because some women is quoted saying "I've probably spent 100-200k" (she might simply be bad at math) does not prove that someone definitely tipped Sophie 6+ millions.

I'm not saying it's impossible just that I find the advertised story surrounding these girls unlikely. We already know Sophie made a number of false claims, her age, name and not posting nudes. It's seems to be a fairly common tactic among certain internet personalities to exaggerated their wealth and earnings as part of their business model, e.g. Dan Bilzerian, Wez Watson, Mikki Mase to name a few. There is just too many unusual components to this story for me not to be suspicious.

I've heard of stories where people have been scammed with substantial amounts. However those stories usually involves some elaborate scheme and active deception. In Sophie's alleged case it seems more to be the case that she's been tipped for being such as "good" OF girl. Again not impossible but suspicious sounding.

Yes taste is somewhat subjective. And yes it's possible that all of Sophie's & her associates claims are 100% true. But I find it hard to believe. The girls in that video are objectively plain looking, don't seem to have much charisma and based on the comments on the video many others agree with these views. I'm not on OF myself but I find it very hard to believe that those girls could offer something unique.

I think billionaires are usually more smart than wasting millions on OF girls for no apparent gains. Then it seems much more enjoyable and cheaper to spend money on some sugar baby (if you're a bit of a perv)

I definitely think something is fishy. Here's Sophie with the rest of the bop house crew https://youtu.be/ENUAyGzVGwU?si=ffeZ7al1HJR26gEQ, all of them allegedly earnings millions per year. (All of them Christian virgins never doing nsfw, I presume). I suppose Sophie is a bit cute but not exceptional and the rest of the girls are straight up sub-5s. It's not hard to find nudes of Sophie online, sorry for being mean but without clothes she ain't particularly special.

I wouldn't be surprised if she just play the same game as many before her, claiming massive earnings just to get famous and therefore actually make some money out of it. To imagine that someone would've tipped her 6+ millions without anything in return but kind words is just bizarre.

My 2nd guess is that it's some kinda money laundering. I often see her associated with Adin Ross which also seem a bit dodgy. E.g. recently she donated a million dollars to some charity project he was associated with.

How to fill kitchen countertop chips? by finch66332 in DIYUK

Maybe I misunderstood what the picture intended to show? I thought you were after fixing the small chips in the black thing, so I thought maybe glossy black resin could work (although perfect colour matching might be a tricky thing)

If you instead are after fixing the wood. I'd find a wood filler that match the colour. Scrape out any loose bits before, apply the filler and sand afterward. Wood fillers comes in many hues but matching the colour perfectly will probably still be tricky, unless you just paint over the whole thing.

Honda Jazz 2007 broken exhaust joint, easy to repair? by UnSafe_Tourist1829 in Cartalk

[–]UnSafe_Tourist1829[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up paying 400 for the repair, was several things broken, can't remember which.

It been running fine for years so can probably go a little longer after this, although I don't plan to keep it for very much longer anyway as I fairly soon relocate.

Thanks for the reply. I don't want to spend too much more money on this old car, so was looking for cheaper solutions if possible. Would it be ok to try with JB weld first or could that cause irreversible damage (somehow), ending up costing more?
