@MartiansGame is this real time ray tracing?

@flowersslop Have you ever read a book and cried?
Qualia can be experienced on both ends of information projected onto and transmitted via semantic plane.

@emollick Damn bro, spoiler alert. I’m only on -0.660924. This literally just came out.

@yacineMTB Last week Sol was the best bang for the buck, by far.
Then massive intelligence degradation starting earlier this week.
Very unfortunate pattern to see repeating. Anthropic too.
Like discovering your favorite food secretly swapped from butter to hydrogenated vegetable oil.

@Andercot A billion years _behind_ us.

Only a few hundred beyond, if that.

@wokerenaissance @var_epsilon Yes, it's always a dance!
Which model are you using? I haven't seen much of that myself, but definitely hear about lazy LLMs a lot.

@XanderGalbraith It helps if you think of it as “afore” and “bafter”

@James32980438 My comment was about the mob who can’t distinguish gasoline from other calorically dense beverages.

I agree with your original point. This will be one of those “how could people really believe this for so long?” things in the near future.

@kitten_beloved Even I experienced “ha, ya got me!”
But the “ha” was too meta. It was a “ha” at the universe, a “ha” at cynicism gaining a bit more ground, a “ha” at my own naïveté.
I respect the troll. Just trying to explain why this one felt off. You want a more directed earned “ha”.

@kitten_beloved Fascinating if true, but I’m having a hard time believing this. Have link to paper or example of how these signals are encoded?

To the Americans:

I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.

And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:

You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.

This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.

Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.

This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.

But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.

This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.

And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:

Thank God for the United States.

Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.

Long may your admirable country dominate the world.

Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.

May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.

Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.

Thank God for the USA.

Happy 250th.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson

How is Windows this fucking shit, like honestly, how in the fuck does a trillion dollar company ship something this goddamn ass?

I use one, a singular software app, that doesn't even make my macbook FLINCH, but completely destroys my 16GB, i5 8th gen win computer......

We're talking about an app that uses 0.6% cpu on my mac, an app that is not even optimised for silicon, but the same goddamn app uses at least 80% of my cpu on the windows laptop.... godforbid I touch anything, instantly shoots up to 99% and just freezes.

HOW IS IT SOOO ASS, HOW IS A TRILLION DOLLAR COMPANY SHIPPING SUCH ASSSS THAT KEEPS GETTING WORSE, YEAR AFTER YEAR.... it's almost incredible honestly
