It’s funny cause I use AI in like the opposite way, I don’t dare let it change or add code unless it’s really simple and tedious, and even then I watch it like a hawk.

How I use AI is to teach me about repos and libraries with obscure, hard to understand, or even no documentation. I do ask for help when I hit a roadblock but rather than taking the code it gives me, I dissect it. I ask what each little weird thing does and why it’s there and the AI’s explanations give me enough to look up the right things and verify it’s legit. Then I’ll write my own version with the confidence that I know what each piece means.

Actually Deepseek’s having a resurgence because of their Engram module which is truly novel.

It’s not so much that Deepseek is a flash in the pan but more like they do some cool new thing and everyone copies their work while they recede back into their research.

A lot of AI censorship that OpenAI used in the past was just something that detects a keyword and maybe sentiment analysis. Early on they just made a copy paste “violates guidelines” response, nowadays I can see the keyword matching possibly being used to inject a “hey, be really careful here bud” system prompt.

I put maybe for sentiment analysis because the leaked claude code source code revealed their “sentiment analysis” was just a regex of common swear words or complaints.

So long as he doesn’t have a rapier we should be good.

I prefer to use the lossless format of PNG, pronounced as Ping.

Plus why would anyone use the expensive ram ssds and gpus to make a datacenter for videogames when they can hop onto the AI hype before it’s gone?

OH that makes sense, so I misread it.

No matter what wouldn’t this grow to infinite passengers? Is that supposed to be the point?

Because any even number is going to halve itself down to 1, which is odd an odd number, then double plus one will always make another odd number so it would grow to infinity.

Edit: Misread the problem, read replies for explanations

I’ve moved away from Classes in general unless it truly makes code more streamlined. The main language I was taught in highschool was Java and it’s just so liberating not needing to turn everything into an object.

But recently I’ve used a Class specifically for Inheritance. I’m making an extension to Pytorch and almost everything in Pytorch uses Tensors as a medium. I made a new kind of tensor that inherits the Tensor class to add specific restrictions on how it behaves. Because of this, this new tensor object can be used with any of the preexisting pytorch functions while also validating the results, reverting to a Tensor if it becomes invalid.

Even in this situation though, all my programming logic rests in it’s own static functions, and the class contains functions that call the static version. The only actual logic the inherited object handles is validating the data.

Because of this, I feel like inheritance is most useful when you’re inheriting someone else’s code to make it compatible with their library. I don’t think I’ll ever inherit my own objects because that’s how you end up with Java.

I’m not so worried about how tiny we are as much as I’m worried how small the max speed of mass is (speed of light). If space warping drives end up impossible then the vast majority of what you can see at any position in the universe is already unreachable for that observer. Viewing eternity through onesided glass.

A lot of what he says is too obvious, but this one actually got me to think. Like oh yeah, sand dampens force and vibrations, it’s what sandbags are typically meant for; and yeah, a giant worm probably would have to move like a desert snake to get anywhere in sand.

The annoying thing is conspiracy just means a multiple people orchestrating crimes together, conspiring with each other.

But the word conspiracy also means a fake conspiracy, which is a real “inflammable means flammable” type situation.

I’ve often heard that the delegitamizing of the idea of conspiracies is itself a conspiracy to get people to think conspiracies don’t happen, which I fully believe.

Don’t misrepresent the situation, Elmo is a muppet not a puppet!

Then I’d have to also tell you to never play a game or buy a product ending in 99 cents. Getting into the mind of the consumer is business 101 and is literally the difference between a game/product having any success or not.

And this has been proven, JCPenney tried to get rid of 99 cent pricing and led to losing 30% profits and bankruptcy. The people who want fair and square pricing won’t be there to actually buy it.

We lost the Cold War, it didn’t end when the USSR collapsed. The task was to destroy the other’s government without incurring nukes and Russia won overwhelmingly.

Though after the Ukraine war seems like China’s the only global winner in all this.

Guys I think the jokes supposed to be that our brains autocorrected it to say “23 mil” similar to the real number. But it actually says just 23 dollars which would be silly.

She’s a princess from what I know.

Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll check it out!

This is a good showcase on why, even if you win, gambling will still drain you. There’s plenty of stories of people who hit the jackpot immediately wasting it all hoping for a second jackpot.
