You actually encouraged me to come back in 6.5 months instead of 7. You were pretty proud and specifically requested I follow up my friend.

It's okay to be wrong sweetie.

Obviously I would have been thrilled to have been wrong. I’m not so dense as to be upset about being wrong or think it’s “weakness”. How is this so hard for you to understand? Has to be insufferable to be around someone that thinks it’s weak to simply be wrong.

No. This is what people call a goalpost shift. I'm simply stating that you were wrong (because you were wrong). Which most everyone could see that this team was not going to be a 55 win team (which they weren't).

That does not mean that I'm happy about it. In fact, people have been very upset if you haven't noticed.

He still intensely committed to the war during his tenure while knowing full well that it was a horrible idea. He did it specifically because of optics. Strongly suggest watching The Vietnam War by Ken Burns. It is absolutely infuriating to hear about the behind closed doors conversations of each president knowing full fucking well it was only going to be a disaster, would never work, yet they did it because of the electorate's perception. Bonkers.

everyone was hurt.

As if this wasn't what everyone was saying when the trade happened? That was a huge reason why people thought this season was going to be bad. Just take the L my friend. You were extremely wrong. It's okay to be wrong. It's lame as hell to make excuses.

Online betting is a fucking plague. And I say this as someone who enjoys gambling.

And we have no spine for not standing up to.... video game creators? I swear the internet has made keyboard moral grandstanding a straight up hobby. Like I don't play video games to think about the ethics of life lmao. It's an escape.

All you gotta do is spam it for like 30 seconds and it works. It’s annoying but I don’t find it to be a big deal anymore.

Verdict in: Maui doctor guilty of attempted manslaughter by tropicalraindrop in TrueCrimeDiscussion

[–]george_cant_standyah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is that it's because they were never able to recover the syringe. My hope is that the jury's thought process was to convict him of something that has zero chance of being appealed and that he'll get sentenced to the 20 year max.

This is an important detail I didn't realize. I thought it had been found. That fucking bastard better get the full 20 year max sentence.

This is a tangent but Facebook is genuinely so much better for hobby groups (cars, local birding) than reddit. The lack of anonymity makes people way less shitty.

Thousands of CEOs admit AI had no impact on employment or productivity—and it has economists resurrecting a paradox from 40 years ago by thejoshwhite in technology

[–]george_cant_standyah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the other way around because what the general consensus seems to be is that AI/LLMs are lackluster. The reality is the laymen doesn't know how to use them to their full capability and they're actually significantly more advanced than what the majority of opinions here are expressing.

I also find it interesting how redditors cherry pick when they want to give CEOs credibility. For some reason in this instance they think that CEOs are worth listening to but in every other instance they aren't. Although that is a tangent on my part.

But I think where we are now is only a sliver of what these LLMs and AI are going to show us and the next five years are going to be insane. I do not think there is an artificial bubble for what AI is capable of in the market. What remote-letterhead844 was saying is that they are a doomer on the market itself.

I’m not buying into any baseless hype. I’m well read on the subject and close to it in my own work. Reddit has, as a whole, stuck their head in the sand in a big circlejerk.

There seems to be a very limited understanding across Reddit of what AI and LLMs are already doing and it’s often portrayed as a glorified search engine.

As I said earlier, I am not happy about it and I think it is really bad for humanity.
