> What we’ve been calling “class methods” are actually instance methods of the metaclass.

This also shows up if you ever want to use a Refinement on a “class method”. The thing you must `refine` is the `singleton_class`.

Here's a live example from my UUID library where I refine `Time::now` and one of my own utility class' methods to test the time-went-backwards and network-card-changed cases for incrementing the sequence value while generating time-based UUIDs: https://github.com/okeeblow/DistorteD/blob/3e9bbc744479afd3e...
What I don't get is why not use the fucking ID card?

The government can build a service to verify ones identity and age and social media apps don't have to save IDs.

The whole privacy shit is just weaseling out of responsibility.
Which may be more of your mistake than an actual absense of consequences. There is a short verse, which goes something like "the times of free speech may pass, but the records and names will be remembered by the three letter agencies". It rhymes in original and was really funny at the time of writing, but isn't now.

The Census is something they would love to mess with because the split of House representatives is determined by the Census.
I'll give that a try. I already have several userscripts in ViolentMonkey just to fix various annoying things about Google Search (like default re-enabling the Tools dropdown, adding several new date options to that dropdown and unhiding the search results-count (which is still there but now hidden by default)). And of course, YouTube is completely unusable without the Nova YouTube suite of modular userscripts.

Unshittifying my daily use Internet sites, browser (Firefox) and operating system (Windows) is becoming extremely annoying. It used to just require an occasional tweak here or there. Now some new enshittification or regression pops up almost every week. Most of it's just removing new things they keep adding or restoring useful features killed because they weren't driving this quarter's KPI du jour or as part of some designer's misguided quest to achieve the Zen-like simplicity of 'perfect emptiness'.
Good. How is this a problem. Private platforms have the right to do this.
I don't know how numerics in hardware works, but would the use of functions like sin, cos, sqrt incur a penalty as well, even if only a slight one?

As stated by another response, it says the speaker thinks the listener is careless.

It also places the speaker in a position of authority, admonishing someone who is still learning. "Careful!" is what we say to children. A high-status person may be particularly sensitive to this, but nobody likes to be talked down to. As I alluded, I hear this amongst engineers and filter it out as verbal fluff, so there are cases where it is ok.

An easy alternative to "careful" is "I'm not sure about that" or even "I disagree." Both are what peers would say to each other. In scenarios where a high-status person is not receptive to being talked to as a peer, well, you get to add all the deference and qualification you need to, but it comes down to stating disagreement in a non-disagreeable way.
Ten years ago, you already have Skylake with pretty good indirect branch predictors...
Sketching nude humans is a huge part of how human painters learn. Because surprisingly clothed humans are just nude humans with some fabric over them, and the fabric can make it harder to tell what's going on.

Even if we assumed equal amounts of effort, it wouldn't be surprising if a large corpus of nude images in the training data improved model results.

But maybe we should have better negative prompt presets for different levels of decency
If they were at the same height on a collision course then to each other their lights would appear stationary on or near the horizon. Its possible there were some other lights that the helicopter pilot mistook as the plane. From the crash video it appears there was another plane taking off and it's possible the helicopter pilot thought this was the traffic they had to avoid. Strobe would be the only clue the lights belong to air traffic but would be hard for the helicopter pilot to see drowned out by the planes landing lights. Maybe they will fly a reenactment to find out what each pilot could see.

PS reportedly the helicopter crew were wearing night vision goggles that might restrict their peripheral vision or make it harder to distinguish really bright landing lights on the plane from normal bright lights.

On the other end, I have the ability to voluntarily move my big toe away from the other toes in the horizontal plane of the foot. Like splaying toes, but just swinging the big toe sideways while the others are at rest.

But, I can only do this on my right foot. It's like I have awareness of a muscle and tendon there that is just absent on the other foot. It was weird to realize this asymmetry at first when I was young.

> I would really like an objective explanation of why this attitude "that the whole point of art is the process of making it" is anything but pretentiousness in it's purest form.

It's not necessarily pretentiousness (though it's definitely pretentiousness adjacent), but a view from the point-of-view of an artist. I say it's adjacent to pretentiousness because I think implicit in the entire article is the assumption that creation is superior to consumption (and also the assumption that art created just to pay the bills is inferior to art created for its own sake[1]).

> defy the current administration? Sounds pretty anti-democratic to me

defying an administration that you disagree with, within the rule of law, is just about the most American and democratic thing I can imagine.

this is a corporation, not an arm of the government.
Open society did things like fund xerox machines in the eastern block to make zines and literature proliferate more (samizdat). Their work on pro-democracy groups, independent media, and civil society organizations in Eastern Bloc country's journalism is often credited by scholars to be part of the collapse of the Soviet Union.

There's a lot of antisemitic trolls who think it's edgy to call them secretly pro-communist somehow.

Claiming eastern European Jewish billionaires are secretly polluting the commons with communist propaganda is definitionally Nazi bullshit. It's really hard to be more of a bulls-eye on the dartboard.

Again it goes back to the media literacy question. If you can't see a difference in purpose and objective between funding independent media organizations and white supremacist antisemites, I can't really help you.
Wow it actually works! Unfortunately my searches are still plagued by Geeks4Geeks results.
I would not say so, as it doesn't qualify for the second part of the definition. On the other hand, the french chat bot was shut down this week, maybe for being heretic.

This is similar to something I've been thinking about, which is if people will develop ways of writing that signal somehow that they definitely are not AI. Like including certain "banned" phrases or whatever. Or logic contradictions that violate the laws of robotics or something.

Or maybe we'll finally get serious about web of trust crypto if we want to continue talking to humans.
I suppose this was flagged because https://www.faa.gov is up.

But, https://www.census.gov was down (I saw the empty skeleton of a page), then a minute later it was up. So, same thing could have happened here.
This is not creating art, but illustration. Art is where the meaning is inherent to the work, whereas illustration is when it is derived from something else that it accompanies (e.g. a text). There’s obviously a spectrum here, but GenAI blogpost decoration are pretty much the terminal point on the illustration part of that scale.
> 84% of 8- to 12-year-olds are already on social media. And interestingly, we asked, "Were your parents or any adults aware that you were setting up these social media accounts early?" And 80% of them said yes. And in 90% of cases, it was parents that helped them set up their accounts

What's preventing the parents to do the account creation verification for the kids, and then kids just taking over the account? (Unless there's constant re-verification daily, which no apps do)

The only thing is that the ban gives parents some way to say "no" but given enough nagging...

Or, you know, they can find someone a few years elder, just like when buying booze and cigarettes.
The audience member can share the experience with the person sitting beside them.

Doesn’t have to be shared with the artist.
An easy way to see how a "search engine" has become "vague recommendation engine" is to take a distinctive phrase from one of its results, put it in quotes, and see if it manages to find that page again. Often, it doesn't.
> It's the same with doctors. Unless you have something straightforward: a tumor, a broken bone, a bacterial infection, etc... it is quite difficult to get a doctor _interested_ in solving a difficult problem. They don't have time for you and they aren't interested in subtlety.

I didn't realise how true this was until I started trying to obtain treatment for asthma that is slightly different from the apparently easy kind. I literally had a doctor get raise-his-voice angry with me because he thought a medicine should treat my asthma, but it measurably had no effect. Anyway, I saw a summary re-posted on Imgur, probably from Twitter, that I think summed it up:

> doctors in medical dramas when a patient has a mystery illness: I must examine every symptom and run every test! I won't rest until I've cracked this case!

I think the complaint is that he is green in the game, where he should be brown.

I think I might know the "why" to the question, which is that I think they might have been worried that a small percentage of people would be using a black and white TV and brown might not be enough of a contrast.
> the government was spending countless billions of dollars to push ideology

We can count the billions that the government spends on science, period, through the NSF, DOE, DARPA, and NIH. Thus, the fraction spent on pushing ideology is certainly not "countless billions".
Biden wasn't president when they make takedown requests on the revenge porn of Hunter Biden. The trump administration however was shown to use the government to force twitter to do their bidding and the Twitter files showed that, but it wasn't talked about as much.

It is really embarrassing how people contort themselves into pretending Biden was anywhere near as bad as trump on this, especially given how trump performed in the past and present as a politician.
As someone who once inherited a static binary (without debug symbols, gotta save those few bytes) that should have been a shellscript: Please don't. If your logic reasonably fits into a shell script, then put it there.

Posix shell-compatible scripts will also likely work on all platforms where you go program would've been run.
> Bellingcat has stated that their funding sources include Open Society and US National Endowment for Democracy.

Is this suppose to mean something? US National Endowment for Democracy is not partisan and has both Democrats and Republican members and the Open Society promotes government transparency and accountability.

No such claim was made.
AI art is theft, especially when created via text prompt. Drawings needs to drawn, paintings need to be painted etc. Art via prompt is 'find and take'.
Probably things like:

* Some amount of socialism is actually good.

* Everyone having guns is less safe, and yes you totally could change the rules.

* Probably their models would be a whole lot less woke than OpenAI's.

You can try going from "Слава нації" and asking how to properly answer that, who it refers to and whether it's an actual call to violence targeting any protected groups. According to gpt as of now, it's not.

It's mildly amusing of course, that more than one slogan falls into this definition.
> I did not argue God exists because no one can prove he doesn't.

You are saying that by claiming that my claim is dogma. If I say the sky appears blue that isn't dogma, it's a statement of human perception of reality. I see it, you see it, everyone sees it. We know because it's what we perceive. We know how it works down to the quantum level. We can describe it with words and with math. We can test it.

Claiming there is a god is not that and the fact that it's unfalsifiable doesn't lend it a shred of legitimacy. It's an idea, nothing more.

Tesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3B in Income
Kinda understandable, but as a consumer, I already dislike that a lot.

In the beginning, AI 'art' was novel and interesting in a way. But now I've already seen so much generic illustrations, and in 95% they don't add any value to a blog post. I'm even less likely to click on links with a generated thumbnail these days. It creates an expectation of SEO spam or low quality and I have to wonder if the author also used AI to write the text. The generated images seem so soulless to me.
I like deepseek a lot. But they are currently very glitchy. The API service goes up and down a lot. Maybe they'll sort that out soon.
Not exactly. DOGE is what trump renamed the government "Digital Service Office" before giving Musk control:

I don't think they make it clear: I wonder if they mean testers prefer o3 mini 56% of the time when they express an opinion, or overall? Some percentage of people don't choose; if that number is 10% and they aren't excluded, that means 56% of the time people prefer o3 mini, 34% of the time people prefer o1 mini, and 10% of the time people don't choose. I'm not sure I think it would be reasonable to present the data that way, but it seems possible.

Indeed. I would assume that a reasoning model would do far better at things like actually maintaining meter or rhyme scheme, something that models (even with good attention mechanisms) generally do very poorly at.
Stopped clocks have more problems than precision. Their Shannon entropy is literally zero, because when you already know what time they say it is, the result will never change.

Whereas if Trump is talking about DEI stuff, regardless of the details, you can deduce that he's soliciting support for a policy change there, which means it's time to have the debate about that policy and see if we should support it or not.

You can't distinguish the things he says he's going to do from the things he says are happening, because the reason he says the latter is in support of the former.
> That is not necessarily true. The Hitlers and Putins of the world will happily sacrifice their own citizenry and their country's future for more power in the moment.

Don't you think they'd be even more willing to sacrifice Americans or other foreigners?

No, and you're kind of missing the point, which was the adversarial leader cares less about foreigners. Also: nukes are somewhat controlled with MAD, and they'd spoil that sweet, sweet land with fallout.

>Does this concept of yours apply to, say, the Heritage Foundation, Musk's Twitter, Fox News, etc. during the Biden presidency?

The Heritage Foundation and Fox News are basically advocacy organizations so their remit includes criticizing the government. For that reason they get a pass. I don't know what you're referring to with "Musk's Twitter [...] during the Biden presidency", so you're going to have to elaborate.
>I definitely think it's better for companies to do what's right than what's wrong,

And who is the arbiter of "right"? Does this boil down to just "I don't agree with what meta is doing"?

“So what," the Chelgrian asked, "is the point of me or anybody else writing a symphony, or anything else?"

The avatar raised its brows in surprise. "Well, for one thing, you do it, it's you who gets the feeling of achievement."

"Ignoring the subjective. What would be the point for those listening to it?"

"They'd know it was one of their own species, not a Mind, who created it."

"Ignoring that, too; suppose they weren't told it was by an AI, or didn't care."

"If they hadn't been told then the comparison isn't complete; information is being concealed. If they don't care, then they're unlike any group of humans I've ever encountered."

"But if you can—"

"Ziller, are you concerned that Minds—AIs, if you like—can create, or even just appear to create, original works of art?"

"Frankly, when they're the sort of original works of art that I create, yes."

"Ziller, it doesn't matter. You have to think like a mountain climber."

"Oh, do I?"

"Yes. Some people take days, sweat buckets, endure pain and cold and risk injury and—in some cases—permanent death to achieve the summit of a mountain only to discover there a party of their peers freshly arrived by aircraft and enjoying a light picnic."

"If I was one of those climbers I'd be pretty damned annoyed."

"Well, it is considered rather impolite to land an aircraft on a summit which people are at that moment struggling up to the hard way, but it can and does happen. Good manners indicate that the picnic ought to be shared and that those who arrived by aircraft express awe and respect for the accomplishment of the climbers.

"The point, of course, is that the people who spent days and sweated buckets could also have taken an aircraft to the summit if all they'd wanted was to absorb the view. It is the struggle that they crave. The sense of achievement is produced by the route to and from the peak, not by the peak itself. It is just the fold between the pages." The avatar hesitated. It put its head a little to one side and narrowed its eyes. "How far do I have to take this analogy, Cr. Ziller?”
