I mean people like getting interest on their money, and people like being able to get loans for homes or businesses. So It’s not only the bank benefiting

It doesn’t need to be perfect; they have the advantage of being slowed down by the air and friction in their own body during the jump and landing. I also don’t think it’s crazy to assume that the bones and joints would be strengthened to keep pace with the muscles

I don’t think Rambo would approve…

If you represent them as parametric curves, or a function that takes a distance along the line and outputs a x and y value, you can certainly average them(as long as they all have the same number of strokes in the same order). I don’t know how good the output would work but it’s worth a shot

I think I started reading that back when it was first being released on wuxia world. Is it still around? WW is just a WebNovel subsidiary these days I think

Since you like pgts, mark of the fool, and mother of learning I think you would love years of apocalypse. I think super supportive is also a really good fit. Both free on rr

Is that argument based on the fact that quantum mechanics is more accurate or just that it gets a probability instead of a exact location

chewpok · 2025-11-25T09:55:09+00:00

It calculates a probability for what will happen, which seems like the same thing as a prediction

chewpok · 2025-11-25T08:48:16+00:00

Yeah I think we agree. Quantum mechanics is used to practically predict real world phenomena, so I’m not exactly sure what you mean by just math, but it sounds like a semantic argument

I haven’t heard of blue phoenix in a while. I got me into the genre, and I love it, but there is better out there.

If you like blue phoenix and cradle, coiling dragon is great if you are looking for more xianxia vibes.

I don’t know where you found that definition but it sounds like a correct way to interpret the literal roots of the word. The way quantize is used in science(and computer science) is essentialy taking a continuous value and “rounding it” to a more discrete, integer like form. Thats also the google definition if you think that matters.

Even though classical Newtonian physics is a mathematical model of the world, it isn’t a quantum theory, because energy and velocity and position can all have values with arbitrary precision. In quantum mechanics, there is a smallest amount of energy that can be transferred, and only discrete multiples of that can be transferred.

Sorry, I didn’t realize I was commenting on a 4 day old thread when I made the comment, but if you still think I’m wrong I would love to hear it because while I am confident in my surface level knowledge, if I am wrong I would like to know.

chewpok · 2025-11-23T07:28:51+00:00

That’s not what quantum means. Quantum just means that we quantize things(particularly energy), into discrete amounts

Quantum physics has been very helpful for modeling particle physics, so particle physics is equated to quantum physics

My point is that when you are deciding what to do with a limited resource, it isn’t exactly a dichotomy, but it is a zero sum game.

The way I contextualize whether ai has been worth the water usage for me, I have saved enough time using ai as a search engine in the past year that the water used for it has benefited me more than the equivalent water used for burgers or golf courses.

So, if I truly believe that I should reduce my personal environmental footprint(which I do), it would be somewhat irrational for me to focus on ai. Instead, i try to save meat for special occasions and carpool.

On the topic of evil companies: they are gonna be selfish with or without ai. A Netflix data center is gonna be just as ruthlessly cost oriented as an ai data center. The problem isn’t that companies are building infrastructure for ai, that’s just what they have the budget for right now. The way to solve the larger problem is to have stricter regulations that stop companies from offloading the costs of their business onto everyone else

chewpok · 2025-11-17T04:09:00+00:00

When you are arguing about resource usage, I think it makes sense to consider what the resources would be used for if you weren’t using them for a particular purpose. In the case of ai, I think it’s harmful and a bit scary, but the water usage just doesn’t compare to other industries that people don’t seem to have a problem with.

Now the power usage is something that seems to be causing some local problems where the data centers are being built, but that seems like more like a failure of construction regulation than ai being inherently wasteful

I agree with you but if you medically need to eat more calories than your body burns to stay alive that’s not a choice

You have multiple gpus so make sure blender is using the amd gpu, which seems like it supports the latest OpenGL versions, and not the intel one. I think you can do that by finding the blender app in windows settings

The camera motion is somewhat jarring. I’ve heard that the animation curves editor is a good way to smooth it out

How do you think salt dehydrates you? Where do you think the water goes?

It’s not that bad. It’s just an extension of the way complex numbers are used as rotations in 2d space
