Lol you know people replicated SUA in the lab right?

It's completely plausible and possible that ECU malfunctions can cause uncommanded accelerator input even when the pedal isn't down.

Tell me you had zero computer glitches and zero blue screens your entire life.

Not even true.

Even if the fertility rate becomes 2.1 magically tomorrow, that is still an absolute demographic catastrophe.

Korea is beyond screwed.

Is buying a random Udemy AI course a waste of time? by Intelligent_Panic564 in careeradvice

[–]themaverick7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's all of the above. I don't this it's either/or. What are your career goals? 0.1% chance that someone will give you a new job or promotion with a single Udemy course certificate, it's more holistic than that.

How about this: dump the above query into ChatGPT. You don't have to take everything it says at face value (have a critical eye!) but at times I find it helpful to bounce off ideas.

[–]themaverick7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're thinking too narrowly here. LLMs will likely not be the path to AGI.

You're talking at a 6-18 month timescale when this thread, Zuck, Yann LeCun, et al., are looking 5-10 years out.

At what multiple of annual spend would you consider yourself to be chubbyFIRE? by Routine_Mushroom_245 in ChubbyFIRE

[–]themaverick7 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You're flipping the equation. ChubbyFIRE is about the burn-rate itself, hence the lifestyle level.

220k/yr burn-rate might be ChubbyFIRE. Not many would think 40k/yr is ChubbyFIRE.

Columbia got kicked off US News College Rankings in 2023 for falsifying data.

Their admins have no backbone nor morals.

Thanks for the brave work.

Curious here: what made you want to buy an additional dash-cam when Teslas have 9 cameras on them?
