I think that's a fair way of putting alignment. The concern is that we might make an AI that's capable of outsmarting us before we're good at making it care about doing what we want instead of some other goal that disregards what we really care about like our safety.
The sexual revolution does not rest entirely on Kinsey, nor was it "engineered".
> The question is, is it portable to the systems you want to support?

"Want" isn't always the whole equation. Sysadmins are often called to support ancient OSes, in particular in environments which keep systems in operation long after their "best before" dates (e.g. internal IT in banking systems).

There's literally no disadvantage, beyond aesthetics, to _not_ using the x-hack. For many of us older folks, using it is built into our muscle memory.

I guess what parent is saying is that 'unrestrained' means you can add any word after the "with a ________", since it's unrestrained.
I have to disagree, though. Haven't we, as a society, been restricting (rightfully so in my opinion) more and more those sexual passions which we deem to be very harmful to the ones being sexualized?
Nobody here talks about the n-word, but things like "master branch" or "sanity check". And the main problem is that organizations trying to ban those terms never even ask people with disabilities, different cultural origins etc for their opinion or permission. What gives them the right to decide what is hurtful for other people than themselves?

Also it doesn't prevent problems like racism, it just hides them behind fake politeness.
The only time I ever actually saw lights dim because of something I did was an old laserjet warming up in mejico.
I did exactly this. After one too many bad experiences with HP, I said as soon as this printer dies, I'm getting a Brother. Then I gave up waiting, and switched as soon as the cartridge ran out, and I am so happy I did.

I now recommend friends and family to avoid HP like the plague, including laptops (which I've also had bad experiences with). Such a shame, their stuff used to be great.
Wine works well, especially with added fruit peels, but I drink alcohol rarely and most of the wine would spoil. I've seen small bottles of wine in Sweden but not where I live - just these 700-750ml ones. I also drink organic with no added sulfites and these appear to spoil quicker even in the fridge.

Gnats and aphids' larvae and eggs appear to be a delicacy for bees. Whenever I put plant pots on a sunny balcony during early spring daytime, I have dozens of bees tinkering in the soil. They also very efficiently clean up the soil and help aerate the roots[1]. Bees are the awesomest living species I know!

The problems like "inequality" did not happen because we had equality. They arose because we had discrimination. Many of the same people who rail against guidelines that encourage more neutral language also don't agree that "the only cure to the past discrimination is present discrimination".

It does not sound crazy to me.

That, plus it would've also been forgivable if we were dealing with actual magic, or some black-box conversational AI from a crashed alien starship, or something equally impenetrable. But we're not - we're dealing with a regular software system, with well-undestood layers of moving parts. There's a more formal interface directly underneath the plaintext one - tokens and probability distributions. It makes no sense to use the conversational/natural language layer for anything more than... just having a conversation.

My dad keeps a windows XP VM around simply to scan from an old printer.
I thought the same thing, but if we're talking about building our own smart home, I assume the solution for that would be relatively simple?

For instance, add a pressure sensor under the bathmat (or seat) in front of the toilet so that the turn-off timer doesn't run while it senses pressure. Alternatively, maybe infrared heat sensor or CO2 sensor to detect presence of living mammals in the room. But both of these approaches can be messed up by your cat/dog spending all day/night laying on the bathroom mat keeping the lights on.

The cool thing about building your own smart home is you can design system to do anything on any kind of assumption. The bad part is you're turning your home into an test of your engineering design prowess, and most part-time novices aren't going to be super happy with how they score... especially if their score ends up being an input to their home valuation.
That's the short term view, assuming it's even true. What about in 10 years where the git tutorials all say "main"?

Between this and cyanobacteria causing a catastrophic (for them) oxygenation event some billion of years ago, many species seem to have causes mass extinctions, with us being the last (and quickest) in this chain.

Perhaps they aren't qualified to do anything that needs to be done whatsoever. Maybe they and their degrees are completely superfluous and unnecessary. Historically, the way to employ such educated sons was to either make them priests or send them to die in wars or to the colonies to get drunk and slaughter indigenous people; when all three of those strategies failed, societies with too many of them usually collapsed under stupid and poorly planned revolutions run by young rich idiots.

It could be that February is the shortest month, while January has 31 days. That’s two extra days.

My napkin math says that’s roughly the expected drop for having two fewer days in a month.

88*(28/31) is roughly 79.5. A little over 90% of users as the previous month, with around 90% of the days.

That’s lazily assuming all days are created equal.

It isn’t a simple 10% drop.
For as long as I can remember, HP has hated their customers, and I'm nearly middle-aged. It's been a loooong time since HP has been great (but it was true at one point, just not in the last 25-30 years).

a. Vegetables > fruit, and I eat a lot of vegetables, to substitute for the carbs. For example, I usually eat broccoli instead of potatoes.

b. Many fruits are 'keto friendly', like blueberries, strawberries, actually mostly berries :), but also something like water melon, in moderation.

c. A lot of modern fruit is engineered to be high in sugar and water and low in nutrients, so they might not even be so healthy as you think.

d. I can actually eat sweet fruit (although I don't often want to). I was talking more about sugar-crammed stuff like cake and soft drinks.
I would agree, but as DoreenMichele pointed out, they were treated the same in ancient Greece. And it's not like the Greeks had extremely sophisticated climate models able to predict the harvest seasons in advance. As far as I know, even today these sorts of models are hit-and-miss. I think we should call it astrology in English in this circumstance.

Good luck trying to reuse your work in 10 years.

Or export it to a non-autodesk ecosystem today, for that matter.

Autodesk designs its software to maximize customer lock-in.

The whole notion that you own your work and should be able to do what you want with it, especially work on it further in an non-autodesk environment is strictly against their corporate religion.

The article says that tree roots released massive nutrients into the oceans during the period of decay causing algae bloom depleting the Oxygen and triggering the extinction. Why just the roots and not the entire trees? Wouldn't the entire tree be decayed and end up in the ocean?
By way of OpenAI, Microsoft is attempting the biggest triple-E bait-and-switch in its history—this time not against open-source developers but anyone who was silly enough to share creative work in the open.

Worst of all, the majority here seems to be hailing them for this.

My take as to what exactly has gone wrong here is that it’s loss of attribution. I think this is quite intentional: given relevant metadata, the network could obviously be instrumented to reflect and credit the artists whose works contributed to the final derivative in excess of some threshold. However, Microsoft would rather the public thought it is impossible—since otherwise they’d be on the hook to pay those artists-turned-unwilling-ghost-content-creators on whose work they are now capitalizing.
irony: The groupthink in this thread is that words like master/slave don't matter, but everyone expressing that opinion feels like a victimized free thinker.

Tax apply to income generating people by design. You pay very little tax in France if you're poor (as a percentage of income). Macron reduced tax on what is comparable: corporate tax, flat tax on certain income such as dividend. Now, did he go overboard? I will let you judge: https://tradingeconomics.com/country-list/corporate-tax-rate with https://tradingeconomics.com/country-list/social-security-ra...

France has been very generous during COVID, has been very generous during the Energy Crisis with the `bouclier tarifaire` that has helped most the poorest. We really have to put that in a world context where most does not get anything during time like this. Can we really say that France is boiling alive its people?

Perhaps this is like talking about KitKats at a Chocolatiers meeting, but when it comes to "Medium Format" I do love the Fujifilm GFX100S. I know, I know, its digital, and its expensive ($6000) but I had a chance to use a rental, and, for an amateur photographer, it was quite nice (and convenient). Blasphemous to say so perhaps, but I also enjoyed its "film" emulation modes (which is something like filters in Instagram but a little more refined and realtime).

As someone with a job and a family, I just couldn't find the time, budget, and space to do proper film photography. Digital has been much more forgiving for the kinds of documentary style family photography that I do.

Gitch Tokens in GPT (SolidGoldMagikarp)
Of all of the corporate departments I perceive qualified to write “lists,” IT is perhaps rock bottom.

It seems to consistently result in visible productions of over reactions that are disconnected from reality.

For example deaf and blind people that I know of prefer to be called deaf or blind.

Brown bagging in my life time has always referred to making one’s own lunch and taking it to work or school in a paper brown bag.

Black box refers to an electrical literal black box which one is unable to see its implementation details without opening it.

The thinking of individuals who produce these works seems to seep into everything they perceive, and so ironically they shouldn’t be producing these lists.

Red, in my experience in most people’s minds, does not refer to Indians predominantly.

BIPOC seems to elevate “capital B” black people and “indigenous” people over others. This seems to be the current initialism in-vogue but I find it inappropriate.

I would err on creating too short of a list over an ever expanding one.

But I digress. That’s not the point of the article. Ideally we don’t have these at all. Not because of administrative bloat being something to avoid but because hopefully you learn how to speak to people with nuance as a result of living life and talking to people with different backgrounds and working continually on your own simple ethical decisions.

As a final comment, much of the social discussions we have in the states are really limited to US centric social perspectives.

People don’t talk like this in many other countries. There’s some irony in being so concerned about how one communicates with other communities that one doesn’t see how myopic this is on an international scale. It’s so American.

Everybody eats wrong until diabetes, treatment resistant epilepsy, mental disease(bipolar, schizophrenia), some type of insulin resistance, overweight, etc (only these come at the top of my head) punches you in the mouth.

Then you have to eat correct. Which is low carb, high fat, low-to-medium protein.

And that is keto diet.

Lowering carb intake improves your health. While fruits "feel" good, it's mostly just sweets/carbs/fructose.

It Turns Out Money Does Buy Happiness
For me personally it's offensive because master and slave don't, never did, and never will, specifically refer to a single culture's experience - and that the idiocy of identifying the technical use of those terms with racism could itself only come from a racist mind.

[edit] while you downvote this, consider that my grandparents family were literal slave workers prior to being shot, and no, I don't think we should BAN THE TERM. Only insufferable racist snobs think that calling a computer a "master" or a "slave" makes normal people think of HUMAN SLAVES AND MASTERS. And even if they do think of human slaves and masters, then hopefully no normal person would think of some racist thing after that. And if they did, then that is a racist problem, not the words. Do you understand? Do you understand that my grandparents didn't survive to live in a world where words are banned because some idiot draws a connotation from them and assumes that other people will as well, or just to exercise power over other individuals? Like, fuck you!

100%. Allulose is the closest thing to sugar. It's also the only one that works well in simple syrup because it doesn't crystalize in storage and keeps the taste consistent for cocktails.

Otherwise, the reproduction of a protected work without the authorization of its author constitutes, according to the provisions of the article L122-4 of the Code of the intellectual property an act of counterfeit.

The central point of the article seems dubious to me. I think it's more likely that administrators are simply in charge of implementing forbidden word lists. This is of course their job. However the central political impetus for doing so is likely elsewhere. (E.G. faculty leadership or something).

I also personally struggle to see the harm caused by such lists.
I'm glad they figured it out since it was impossible to tell any other way.
