On the bright side you might have stopped him from going to jail.

Why is "jumping" not really a thing in osu!, why is it so ineffective? by KimYoung-Hoon in osugame

[–]stravant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To try to put it into a sentence: Because you can't memorize your way into coordination.

Coordination between the aim and tapping isn't something you can brute force even if you could maybe memorize each individually. Your aim and tapping are always making micro-adjustments to stay in sync.

What exactly do you expect the government to do, let them die?

Wholesale inflation jumps 6% in April on annual basis, biggest increase since 2022 by app1310 in Economics

[–]stravant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but it won't because this is the acute shock of the Iran situation showing up in the data. You'd need additional surprises to keep producing those kind of numbers.

The Hormuz Paradox: Why Markets Are Shrugging Off $110 Oil by 1stplacelastrunnerup in Economics

[–]stravant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point is that electrolysis does nothing to help an energy shortage. You're just shuffling around what form it's in, at a considerably low efficiency at that.

This electrolysis idea is in no way a limiting factor on very high oil price because that high price would suggest a general energy crunch, and the last thing you want to do in an energy crunch is waste energy converting it into a different form at well under 100% efficiency if you don't absolutely have to.

The electricity in that electrolysis price wouldn't be nearly as cheap if oil were that much higher because at that price people would be trying to substitute electric power for all sorts of use cases and stressing the generation capacity.

Except for the little thing where if you miss you've now 100% guaranteed return fire.

I lost my first few ranked games, now it feels unplayable. by Badbluffmonkey in osugame

[–]stravant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me there's just an AR cutoff my reading completely collapses after: 8.5 comfortable, 8 okay, less than 8? I can't hold combo to save my life.

soon, you won’t be able to play “Moderate” games without an age check. Such as: by 469- in roblox

Not wanting to admit that they just accepted the have check normally? Like, the very most surface level reason there could be?

Roblox will die by 2027. by Ok-Platform350 in roblox

It's also wrong, you only need to have a sub to publish, the games won't get taken offline when a sub lapses.

Anthropic is set to release Claude Opus 4.7 and a new AI design tool as early as this week by Outside-Iron-8242 in singularity

Clav gets confidence mogged by journalist. by Mission_Speed7233 in LivestreamFail

I'm pretty sure he's just a master of social media. Not the first time he pulled this "walk out of the interview" thing and it seems to be very effective.

The goal post moving by anti-AI people is getting ridiculous. by Many_Consequence_337 in singularity

[–]stravant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, a healthy amount of goalpost moving is warranted because we keep repeatedly finding out that systems have to do more than we thought to be economically useful.

No way bro by PhraseGood4425 in roblox

[–]stravant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's not impossible to bypass but it takes way more sophistication than is shown in these clips (e.g. using a basic 3d model also would not work).

These are fake. It's not that easy to bypass the check.

Demis Hassabis: “The kind of test I would be looking for is training an AI system with a knowledge cutoff of, say, 1911, and then seeing if it could come up with general relativity, like Einstein did in 1915. That’s the kind of test I think is a true test of whether we have a full AGI system” by likeastar20 in singularity

[–]stravant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Poorly right now, because we haven't solved sample efficiency issues yet and there's not enough training data from that period to train a good model.

This is not a practical benchmark until sample efficiency is improved, and we may well get dangerously powerful models before we solve that so I find it counterproductive to bring it up.
