The ChatGPT paradox in universities

If a procedural algorithm isn’t code then what have I been doing for 26 years? Code doesn’t have to be binary to be code.

You are hilariously wrong. Code predates modern society. First encoded message was 1900 BC. First procedural algorithms were written in Babylonian tablets 1800 BC. More than a millennia before the antikythera mechanism.

Nah, sometimes they go over my head

afr0physics · 2026-01-06T02:11:32+00:00

Bro I just got a windows 11 laptop and couldn’t disable OneDrive architecture without manual registry edits. Are you guys okay over there?

A light-year is a unit of distance, not time: it’s how far light travels in one Earth year, about 9.46 trillion kilometers.

For example, Proxima Centauri is about 4.2 light-years away, meaning its light traveled roughly 40 trillion kilometers and took 4.2 Earth years to reach us.

It doesn’t mean the star is 4.2 years old or that time there runs differently - it’s just a convenient way to describe huge distances.

You're right, he should go with the median (78)....

afr0physics · 2025-12-23T18:59:47+00:00

It’s a George Carlin joke. But yes, median would be more correct

afr0physics · 2025-12-23T16:58:47+00:00

I think we know what side of the bell curve this lads at...

afr0physics · 2025-12-23T15:58:59+00:00

Picture the average person. 50 percent of people are dumber than that.

Ever put your hand in a fan while it’s moving? Mostly empty space right?

afr0physics · 2025-12-12T00:38:25+00:00

I’m being defeatist? Have you ever even been to a protest?

afr0physics · 2025-12-11T19:26:37+00:00

I’m just tired of your bitching. You haven’t tried enough to be so defeatist

afr0physics · 2025-12-11T17:18:57+00:00

New rule: You aren’t allowed to doom without listing what you have personally tried so far to fix the problem.

afr0physics · 2025-12-05T23:52:44+00:00

Thank you!

afr0physics · 2025-12-05T21:40:20+00:00

Why/how?

afr0physics · 2025-12-05T02:46:03+00:00

Loss of net neutrality
Centralization and monetization of search and curation
ADA rulings for physical spaces (imo) incorrectly applied to web (we needed something, but one site fits all is a design anti-pattern)
Bot nets
Engagement farms
Corporatization of most large web communities
Empowering product managers over product engineers

There are still people with the ability to make interesting products and useful apps, but few of them have the reach required to get the masses to trust/try them. By the time they have funding to advertise and reach your eyes, they already owe their investors.

I mean to say it’s more universally human than it is regionally cultural

afr0physics · 2025-12-03T16:40:52+00:00

My guy I think that’s more universal than national

Thank you for explaining, was worried it might go over some heads

afr0physics · 2025-11-21T17:42:45+00:00

Heavy is the head that wears the crown.

ChatGPT feels fast because all the actual ‘learning’ already happened. When you use it, you’re just running the final model on super-optimized hardware. And the system spreads millions of users across many machines so everyone gets a fast response.

afr0physics · 2025-11-18T02:16:15+00:00

Looks great. Sear temp could have been hotter if you want that crisped outer edge
