And the voices. “Billy…”
“You fucked the whole thing up.”
“Billy, your time is up.”
“Your time… is up.”
Low level programming C
Could be pretty much any computer
rust
Need a lot of memory (8-16 GB) if you are planning on dissecting any existing projects
Machine Learning programming with Python
Start with colab / huggingface and get a feel for what level of hardware you need for the stuff you’re doing before you start buying stuff
If you want just a general high quality system with upgradability etc, frame.work or System76 are supposed to be good high end providers.
Honestly this meme is way understating the sinisterness
This has been 100% my experience with my Brother printer
Everyone wants to belong
Everyone wants allies, close friends, brothers and sisters they can rely on and love and support
In the modern world we have pale imitations and crap. There is no village, there is only a dim landscape through which we shuffle, largely alone.
And so there is craving for some substitute, because the under structure is unfulfilled
Real bed pillow
Once you try it you will never go back to the horseshoe neck strain weak sauce
I mean, it’s clearly doing something which is impressive and useful. It’s just that the thing that it’s doing is not intelligence, and dressing it up convincingly imitate intelligence may not have been good for anyone involved in the whole operation.
Copilot and that whole model is a bunch of shit
Get Claude.ai, do the thing of pasting the code you want it to modify into the chat window, and it’ll spit back out some modified sections of code you can put back into the file. It is more time consuming, but it actually works.
For intense operations you can make a project, upload the main headers and documentation, and it’ll absorb them into its sphere of awareness and start being able to take account of them when it does the above in chats within that project.
It is not perfect (as no LLM assist is) but it saves a lot of time and is not beset with the growing incompetence and failure with which OpenAI seems to be afflicted more and more with every passing month
What are the lions even gonna do?
“Haha I will bite some of you! And then sit there doing that thing where I make a chewing motion with my tongue out and shake my head vigorously, because it isn’t working!”
Ants all the way man
May I offer you a fairly convincing explanation
BOB: Well, when you have TIME magazine do a cover story on Palestinian rights you see that the perception of the problem is changing.
Any fuckin day now
Almost.
Literally every other energy source (edit: aside from tidal and some others that people pointed out) is some form of modified and stored sunlight, in some way or another.
The interfaces are relatively modern too, with VGA and a PS/2 keyboard.
Yeah, you’re right. It looks like there’s a consensus now that the population in the Gulag was way lower than I thought. Fair play. There’s also a chart year by year, in the “history” section, which I missed.
If it was 2.4 million in 1953, out of total population of 179 million, that’s 1,340 in detention per 100k. The modern US is only 40% as bad as the literal Gulag at its peak. Fuckin hooray.
Yeah; that’s probably why there is such a lack of data. The period for which there are estimates vary by a factor of 20 between low and high estimates. 🙁
Ah, got it. I was talking about USSR, not modern Russia. Modern Russia is its own thing and its own brand of horror but not the same as OG Communist USSR which was more what I was trying to highlight.
Yeah. I’m taking the high side of the widely varying estimates of the Gulag population, which in the period of the 1940s range from 3.5 million to 17.6 million depending on who’s doing the estimating.
The Gulag at the peak housed about 7,500 (edit: 1,340) per 100k of the Soviet population.
(And yes, the US’s 531 is still also an atrocity.)
Where did you get 329? I actually couldn’t find any post-Kruschev numbers, but I know after privatization, Russia was pretty competitive with the US’s dystopian nightmare.
Edit: I was way wrong about the size of the Gulag
Ha, that is fair. I was just poking fun at dessalines’s habit of giving a free pass to any country that is openly mauling and torturing its citizens as long as they wear the right color hat. But yes, it is fully accurate that the US’s prison system is an authoritarian nightmare that preys on its minority population without rest or mercy. And, comparing the US against countries which don’t even make the claim of being “democratic” and finding it competitive with the worst of the open tyrannies is maybe fair.
Also, I just looked, and I don’t think these numbers are accurate. I think they’re straight-up ignoring some countries with millions of people, and I think the numbers are about 8 years out of date. The US incarceration rate has been falling back down to merely horrifying levels after the Stalinist peak it rose to after Reagan+Clinton teamed up to ruin the world.
List of Countries by Incarceration Rate
The majority of states in our land of wonderful freedoms are newly competitive with such beacons of hope as El Salvador, Rwanda, and Turkmenistan. The march of progress!
What about blending tutorials tho
