Everytime the supreme Court does something batshit that allows Trump more power, I wonder if this is what Godel was worried about.

It’s a pyramid scheme, and your place in the pyramid/heaven is defined by how many souls you save.

People that convert the most people, or who’s converts go on to convert the most people go to heaven.

To be fair Berlin is 100x better than the rest of Germany.

The Anti-Defamation League notes that though the symbol is popular with white supremacists, imagery resembling the black sun features in many cultures, and that such imagery should always be analyzed in the context in which it appears, as it may not necessarily be intended to serve as a symbol of white supremacy or racism.

i just googled it. Apparently they’re just really into star wars, and didn’t realize about the Nazi symbol until it was too late.

Commercial versions of these systems exist in the UK.

The Gdpr makes these things harder to do, but not automatically illegal.

Surely you have noticed that there is a lot of criticism of the GDPR and EU tech regulation.

Yeah, and some of it is even true.

So a random person on Reddit claimed there’s about 800 million possible uk mobile numbers, some people have multiple numbers so ballpark 80 million active phone numbers. This gives around a 1:10 chance of picking an active number at random. If there’s actual patterns in the numbers this could be even more likely.

What’s interesting is this won’t have been a realistic sounding number.

Company lines typically start 0300 or 0800 but mobiles are 07… Something.

So if it was just hallucinating, it did so badly.

Also, I want it to go to people outside my org that I email back, not random spammers and salespeople.

For some reason, the only option is to use people in my addressbook which doesn’t auto populate and I never use.

You know open-source doesn’t mean publicly available. It means the person, or in this case the US government, that brought the software should have free access to the source code to edit and distribute it as they like.

So yes, the military should use something functional equivalent to open source to prevent vender lock in and to allow for external audits. They probably shouldn’t give it to Russia or make it freely available online though.

If LLMs just copied stack overflow they’d respond to every question with “Closed as duplicate. Question already answered.”

Quentin. Lennon. Benedict. Pletemony.

Let’s be honest here. Basically no one that’s English is actually proud of their country in a non-racist way.

We have two flags. The union jack which is xenophobia lite, and the English flag for full-fat racism.

The US is pretty similar in that they have their US flag for the xenophobia lite and then the Confederate flag for the deep fried racism.

The Confederate flag is worse in that ultimately the Confederate was only ever about racism and slavery, and no sports teams use it so when ever you see it, it’s always about racism.

They put that in vice city as a set of missions.

Ubuntu is deployed all over the place for data science.

I’m fairly sure this is because data scientists got used to running it on their personal machines and can’t be bothered to learn another distro.

If it’s only 300 calories, it’s probably a diet shake and packed full of fiber to make you feel full. You’re better off switching to normal milkshakes.

As you’re vegetarian, I would get really into dahl cooked with ghee. It’s incredibly tasty and has so many calories.

Because if a website doesn’t work in your browser, but it works in everyone else’s, no one will say “oh that website’s badly written”, instead they say “what a shitty browser”.

So you have a huge web standard you have to respect, and then all the websites with non standard code you have to make work anyway.

Accelerated Firefox timeline.

That used to have a picture of an actual Phoenix and then a red panda before it got streamlined.

If ladybird keep going at this rate, everyone will be trying to cancel them by the middle of next week

You’re in a car. There’s probably a charging port there. Sucks if you don’t have a phone, but it sucked before when you didn’t have change.

Parking has always been a privilege not a right, and if you’re not prepared you’re going to get a ticket.

I get that it’s annoying but if my phone broke and I suddenly had to pay for parking with coins, I don’t know what I’d do either. Everything is cashless now, where would I get coins from?

I mean if everything is ephemeral and the users are anonymous and don’t log in, the federation wouldn’t actually do anything.

Yeah but parking has always been bad.

You had to carry change. Meters were always out of order or would just eat your change without issuing a ticket, and the people checking never gave a shit and would give you a fine anyway.

My only complaint is the app, everyone should offer a website or an app, but if you’re going to park there a few times an app does make sense.
