all programming is abstractions of hello world change my mind
I always wondered if I’d like to write for video games (I write sketch, character, musical comedy) but honestly there’s probably very little fun in it, as you’re writing 95% one-sided conversations that are variations on “go to place, bring hack item”
You mean to finish
and the people who know exactly how to waste time in an office.
why do we hate the us government
uhhhh where do you wanna start. I mean pick a year between 1776 and now. Pick a month, probably.
they said that about suffrage and women’s suffrage too.
I feel like I’m starting to see way more sympathetic comments than I did a year ago.
Self-proclaimed MRA, actually just a pick up artist red pill buffoon who lived in his mothers basement and frequently complained feminists made him wipe his ass after shitting unlike nature intended.
Not joking.
not at home but I believe there’s a few that run in docker.
So basically the bit in Succession when Mattsson tells Tom he wants to fuck his wife and is looking for “a pain sponge”
the best answer I can find is that the Olympic committee protested that it would affect whether the Olympics would accept attendance in that city if they allowed it, maybe someone can do a deeper dive.
Of why it’s coming back - a) Trump repopularized execution, b) Pfizer caved to public pressure to stop producing lethal injection drugs and c) electric chairs aren’t humane and suffer the same issue as firing squad that executioners suffer PTSD, it’s not very humane - being painful, long and often taking multiple attempts until the victim has a heart attack, which they of course experience and then die.
It seems like the answer I can get is that nobody really likes killing people, those that do suffer PTSD, and the messier the method the more unpopular it is.
Probably, with a bit of reflection, many people don’t actually like the death penalty when it comes to being present at it.
Due to blood being produced I believe that’s disqualified. Otherwise a .22 caliber bullet followed instantly by a .22 hollow point to both the brain and the heart simultaneously would be the fastest and most humane experience for the victim.
However, very few people want to build and operate such a contraption.
not to mention like fucking Nestlé, Montsano, Blackrock, Northrop Grunman
The war on drugs is a euphemism. Ending It doesn’t mean stop drug legislation, it means stop putting parents in jail for 10 years and putting their kids in care because they smoked weed and the kid accidentally told a cop when the cop visited their school and told them if they didn’t rat out their parents something worse would happen.
it’s also like 2 hours compared to 2 minutes.
People wanting to kill themselves probably take care to do it.
Anesthesiologists won’t do it. That’s why they had so much trouble executing the guy in the first place: its not a doctor doing it, just a prison guard.
I think the issue was making it usable / marketable without technical knowledge.
A better path would have been to keep it as a technical ML tool where the LLM is only used to interpret unstructured data.
Consider this: I pick up a tennis racket and a tennis ball, so does my wife, we go to a tennis court, I hit the ball to her gently, she hits it back: Are we playing tennis or not?
If we are not, what are we doing?
And yet it’s nowhere near the level of Serena Williams, or even the local semi Pro tournament, or probably even the local tennis club.
why does it have it be good, or more accurately for this conversation- why do you have to like it for it even to exist and have a name?
I dont particularly care for The Wiggles, or for Machine Gun Kelly, but both of them produce music. Just because I don’t like it, or think it’s not good doesn’t mean it’s not music. Even a child slowly, shakily playing a basic C major scale and getting it wrong is still “music.” Its not Mozart but it still exists.
There is no “point” or “value” you can attach to tennis, music or sculpture - or other forms and media of art, entertainment, sport, science etc that means it suddenly becomes that. Art you don’t like is still art.
Against blatant racism.
