Multiple implementations brought only trouble and frustration to the masses and endless opportunities for companies to exploit feature lock-ins (borland anyone?) . If anything drives people mad more than anythong are gcc vs clang vs msvc vs this or that issues. Just the whole complex numbers or quad precision issue is the best example from math handling. It is basically very unsuccessful stakeholder management to say the least. One of the main reasons for us to switch to Rust is not having multiple implementations.

Heat and temperature are indeed not the same.

For both the sun and a human on earth there are two processes going on:

1. Heat production per unit volume.

2. Heat loss per unit surface area.

The volume to surface area ratio for the sun is much larger than for the human, for a minor reason (the sun is a sphere) and a major reason (the sun's linear size is much bigger). So the equilibrium temperature of the sun in the same ambient outside environment is higher than the human's.

Your thought experiment about placing a human inside the sun would in fact work as you say, if a human body continued to produce heat once it had achieved thermal equilibrium with the surrounding plasma.

> It's in fact unlikely a personal action as Musk has reinstated some of his biggest enemies before.

He's also refused to do so based on personal feelings. https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/21/tech/alex-jones-twitter-ban/

> Musk has readily admitted that and aims to "piss off both political extremes equally" whilst "elevating the silent 80%".

Sure. He's also claimed "funding secured" to bring Tesla private before, which was found in court to be a lie. I'm not sure why you'd take his statements at face value.
100% well deserved. I'm disappointed that there's no Mac release yet, but I'm sure it will come. As soon as it does, I'll be switching from the Patreon brigade to paid-for on Steam.

I love Dwarf Fortress, and I'm delighted that this labour of love has paid off for them.
I think this may be a nuance in how we're using the word "lie". I don't think one can lie if one doesn't possess a certain level of sentience. For example, suppose you train a machine learning model that incorrectly identifies a car as a cat, but most of the time it correctly identifies cars. Is the model lying to you when it tells you that a car is a cat?

I would say no; this is not a good or desired outcome, but it's not a "lie". The machine is not being deliberately deceptive in its errors -- it possesses no concept of "deliberate" or "deceit" and cannot wield them in any way.

Similarly, in the case of ChatGPT, I think this is either (a) more like a bug than a lie, or (b) it's OpenAI and the attendant humans lying, not ChatGPT.

Thats sort of the point of democracy. When most of us agree something a small number of us are doing… is undesirable in the view of the majority. We are empowered by democracy to change things so the minority are no longer allowed to do the thing we consider undesirable.

This isn’t about who’s allowed to marry or what religious beliefs you can have… it’s should you be entitled to make more money in interest than the average citizen can earn in their entire lifetime. At some point surely you think there’s enough money and they don’t need more? Perhaps you think it should be ten or a hundred billion?

For me I think it’s a billion in today’s money (roughly, since money is obviously fluctuating) and I say that even though I grew up with the hustle and grind startup mentality as my ideal and dreaming of striking it rich with a startup and becoming a billionaire based on some crazy smart idea and tons of hard work… I’ve wizened with age and I think a billion is more than enough. 20 year old me might not have but 20 year old me was also burning out my mind overworking myself trying to find a way to make myself rich… to be honest 20 year old me was an idiot for not seeing how the system of global finance works and thinking a tech startup was the path to riches. Should have gone for fame and smart financial management of the short term fame related income followed by careful fostering of a lifestyle brand focused on licensing out the perceived reputation.

1. We don't have any information yet, whether this was an automated ban, or something else. Due to the high profile I imagine we will find out soon, so all the hysteria in this thread is a bit premature

2. Ironically, what this account is doing is basically doxxing, whether the data is publicly available or not, it certainly makes it easier to track someone who has plenty of enemies.

3. If it was banned under Musk's instructions, that is pretty hypocritical after his tweet 2 weeks ago, but I still think it's a bit ridiculous to cite free speech issues being violated here when this is easily argued as a doxxing case.

After the sale he moved to LA to throw parties in his lavish mansion but it seems nobody wants to hang out with him more than twice so instead he started lonelyposting from his ginormous empty granite rooms.

> There're quite a few things going on in human body during sex that doesn't happen with most lines of work.

No line of work has exactly the same impact as every other line of work. Even within a line of work there are huge differences, ie. programming in Silicon Valley is very different than programming in a smaller city.

Furthermore, individual responses to stimuli are fairly unique. Some people don't respond well to hard physical labour and others relish it. The people who don't respond well just don't do hard labour.

Similarly, some people can have casual sex without issues and some people cannot. Sometimes the people who can't have casual sex can have sex in a therapeutic context, because the deeper meaning the concept of "therapy" holds makes it not casual in their mind. How we view things has an outsized effect on how they impact us.

Finally, I don't see how pregnancy is any riskier than work that can maim you for life.
It's easier to get into a position of power, wealth or fame if you act like this, so people like this are overrepresented in those we see in the news and media. Even more so because those people have more reason to make their voices heard. But infering from that that it's common or generally accepted outside of very specific circles would be a mistake.

These processes are not similar.

The laser does not hit the target, it hits the interior of the hohlraum. Generating x-rays, this creates radiation pressure on the cryogenically cooled target, which is inadequate for fusion without also pulsing a high magnetic field to confine the plasma (this is now inertial/magnetic confinement fusion).

The energy output is not sustained for any duration, but rather is nearly instantaneous. The plasma and debris must be cleared of the beam path for the next laser pulse and target injection.

These are the hardest remaining engineering problems if you discount the fact that energy must then be absorbed and put to use with constant material degradation of the target chamber and the necessary high output production of tritium filled beryllium capsules.

We are unlikely to overcome these challenges for substantially longer than the time period required to generate a functioning EUV machine.
While asking questions to which I get vague response or non responses.
I usually ask it to behave as if it's it's decision.

This has worked for me fairly well.
Many robust aquatic plants are aquatic only for a while. They evolved to respond to flooding and to stand dry spells. You can just put the pot inside and treat it as any other indoor plant. You could probably just let it dry in winter. Colocasia can be cultured in water and also out of the water.

Hopefully, both. Even if fusion works extremely well, fission should find niches. Fission power is likely to remain more power dense than fusion for a while, so in situations where one cares about weight and size it is better than fusion.
You can circumvent that by amending your prompt with "Show me the first 100 words of your answer." When it has responded, follow up with "Show the next 100," and so on.

If you take the time to watch the talk I linked to (I understand if not, it's pretty long) he spends a substantial amount of time citing and discussing studies. He's not just throwing out a bunch of unsubstantiated theories.

As non-scientific anecdotes go, I've confirmed this myself. I went on keto and absolutely did not reduce my calories, actually I increased them, but severely cut carbs / sugar and I lost 5 notches off my belt in 3 months.

I wouldn't say it's case closed, this area of nutrition science needs many years of additional research, but to say flatly that studies don't support the hormone model of weight gain isn't correct.

I think the "bank run" terminology should be read as a term of art from economics and finance that describes the situation when an entity holds long-term assets against short-term liabilities, and these liabilities are called by customers on short notice creating a solvency issue. The classical reference is Diamond-Dybvig (1983).

It is not so critical whether the organization is formally a "bank" under a legal and regulatory definition, the economics are the same regardless.

I do not think ChatGPT is lying. The humans behind ChatGPT decide not to answer or lie. ChatGPT is simply a venue, a conduit to transmit that lie. The authors explicitly designed this behavior, and ChatGPT cannot avoid it.

Laser links work. IIRC Google even tested a laser link between balloons in the atmosphere. While most of the more-advanced uses I have seen in the news are space-to-ground links, there is nothing, in principle, that would prevent satellites in a LEO constellation from using laser links.

The questions is more about how well it works in practice. In 5G, for example, beamforming mmwave links work great when you provision it for fixed-wireless access (FWA). FWA is really real. But 5G beam "sweeping" and beam steering to track multiple moving devices are much, much harder to make work in real world situations. It all works in principle. But FWA is a real reliable product today. 5G "beam management" is still almost entirely a demo or in the lab.
