Did you know that when a cell is copying its DNA the enzyme that unzips that DNA doesn’t just start in one place, but rather unzip multiple parts of the same strand at the same time? If that weren’t the case, unzipping the DNA would take too long, and the cell would die before it could be done.
Pretending that doing one thing is stopping us from doing other things is an incredibly idiotic way of thinking about the way progress is made.
All of this anti-space doomerism is really pissing me off.
If everyone were immortal, and no one needed to worry about resources, that would be awesome and pretending otherwise is the biggest cope.
Reality is that which continues to exist when you stop believing in it.
Idk, if someone’s trying to do a mass shooting, a little intervention could do some good.
And now they never will.
Yes; I misunderstood what the author meant. Ty for letting me know.
There is no fact about reality that can ever threaten facts about mathematics. Mathematic definitions exist independent of reality.
I’d argue that a prion is folded badly.
God is not good. God is in fact very bad, if we assume they exist.
Iirc trees aren’t a cladistic group; “tree” is a word that describes a phenotype. Bananas absolutely grow on trees because “a tree-like herb” is a tree.
Edit: adding salt to water does change the boiling point. The amount is simply not enough to be significant most of the time. Similarly, the coriolis effect does affect the movement of water in toilets, just not enough to be noticeable.
Edit2: multi-personality disorder isn’t a thing. Disassociative Identity Disorder (DID) is what’s being referenced.
Does the author think LLMs are Artificial General Intelligence? Because they’re definitely not.
AGI is, at minimum capable of taking input and giving output from any domain that a human can, which no generative neural network is currently capable of. For one thing, generative networks are incapable of reciting facts reliably, which immediately disqualifies them.
This is the way.
Hard disagree. As far as I’m aware, everything they’ve done so far is attention-grabbing and harmless. All the paintings were behind glass, and the stuff here is water soluble.
Anon is going to Hell.
“Topping” means taking an active role in sex, whereas “bottoming” is a passive role.
Good for her.
Does she regularly check emails?
Incase anyone reading hasn’t heard yet: the dude never had a license. He had a “suspended license” but getting that doesn’t actually mean you ever had a real license. He’s also renewed his ID every year. He’s just never gotten his license for no good reason.
That’s entirely fair.
