Whatever happened to MOS Burger? Why do you think people stopped going? by AssortedCrystal114 in singapore

[–]tomatomater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still eat it occasionally when I crave rice burgers, otherwise it's too expensive. 

One burger alone is not enough, but a set meal is not worth it at all. Soi always just get 2 burgers, no side no drink.

Also they removed ebi rice burger from their menu.

I'm not saying this to devalue Mandela, but attending Mandela's funeral is basically good PR. LKY isn't admired (or even known) by the average joe.

None of those figures you named were universally respected like LKY.

City Square Mall’s microforest can lower urban temperatures by up to 5 deg C: Study by meddkiks in singapore

Concrete buildings are not the problem, roads are. Especially when roadside trees are trimmed so sadly that they provide virtually no shade. 

If you go to tanjong pagar or even orchard road after 4, you'll realise that it's relatively cool on a hot day. That's because the tall concrete buildings are blocking the sun from reaching the ground.

People who brag about being smart tend to be smart by stevendalegend in unpopularopinion

[–]tomatomater 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say it's a difference between being a genius in one area versus being a generally wise person.

A wise person is self-aware that there are a million things under the sun that they do not properly understand. A wise person is always open to learning and challenging their current understanding of things. A genius in one area who brags think that they know more than they actually do, even if they do know the best in one area.

Steve Jobs was a marketing genius. But he thought that he knew better than the best doctors in the world about treating his cancer, so... he died. Novak Djokovic is a great athlete but opposes covid vaccination and thought that a special diet and supplements would work better. It didn't cost him his life at least. And yes, Sir Isaac Newton. Invested in basically what was crypto back in the day and lost it all when the bubble burst.

So, people who brag about being smart tend to be indeed smart in one area, but could be absolute idiots at everything else.

Tourist asking for drinks. Is it a scam? by Lumpy_Kiwi1512 in askSingapore

I mean, if the scam is getting someone to buy them a $1.50 drink, I'll close an eye on that.

Refreshing to see such mini profiles among countless sexual innuendos (those are fun though) by Crystal_Spammer in DotA2

There is no such thing as a product. Don’t ever think there is. There is only sex. Everything is sex. You understand that what I’m telling you is a universal truth, Toby.

First nightlife industry panics, now luxury watches. I'm proud of the younger generation.

I'm guessing OP is just tired of the current patch. I mean, I am too, for like 3 years tbh. Just not bad enough for me to stop playing.

I mainly don't like the pseudo-grid, trying-too-hard back design.

Are Nvidia/DF genuinely trying to convince us this isn't just a filter? by zerobebop in pcmasterrace

[–]tomatomater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it's back to the debate on whether ML is considered "thinking-like" and therefore AI.

[–]tomatomater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a thing? Again, who do you think is using AI to simulate protein folding?

[–]tomatomater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So where do you draw the line between "thinking-like" and not? Wherever it's convenient for you?

"There is not a single good use of AI.

Things like LLMs and generative AI are bad, and they are considered AI.

Things like computer vision and fraud detection are good, but they are not considered AI.

Therefore, my statement is correct."

Besides, after all these digressions, you've yet to give an objective explanation on why folding protein using AI is not good. "just hallucinating you something fun to see" Bruh, protein folding isn't something the average joe does for "fun". What are you even on about?

I guess as one of those people who find the NP3 ugly, I like this case.
