A lot of sites have weight. Twitter sheds users every day but the large user count makes it attractive to public figures and if you want to follow that public figure you need to have twitter.

Are they going to force Biden to run against his will or what is the plan here? If Biden dies, are Democrats not allowed to run at all because they aren’t allowed to replace him.

Always fun to read headlines that could be featured in the first 5 minutes of a disaster movie.

By not being a trained nurse. Being wrong is pretty easy, you just have to not know things.

My perception was that if you get something like a stroke, the initial damage is horrendous and that usually don’t heal. Any improvement is the brain offloading the lost functions to other parts of the brain. But once the damage is done and doctors and nurses stopped the source of the damage, I figured the brain would just remain where it was.

I would have liked some more info on how the brain injury is slowly killing her. My perception of what a brain injury could be is clearly wrong because I have been under the impression that the brain is pretty sturdy as long as the initial injury doesn’t kill you.

My general impression is that India are really good at scientific innovation and so on but only because the incredible inequality allows India to channel its resources so that it can be on par with other countries a fraction it’s size.

If they did the work required to lift the poor regions out of poverty, and sometimes just straight up feudalism, the country would become a proper superpower with far reaching cultural impact but right now India seem to slide further into Hindu nationalism so now it’s more of a worry for everyone else if India became another dictatorship like china.

Does that matter? Nobody can fire him or regulate his behaviour in any way. What does public opinion matter when you are a divine prophet of the law.

2 digits to the birth year.

They dont put 101 years old in their database they write in 1923.

When they made the booking program they had such limited memory for their computer that they just stored 23 and removed the 19.

The assumption was that the companies would continually update and redo their systems to fix this flaw as computers got more powerful.

Turns out that late stage capitalism is unable to make the small investments to keep up with infrastructure improvements so here we are with planes that fall apart and booking systems running on floppy disks.

They would say that at this stage. They are still working on getting the law overturned by courts and threat of shutdown mobilizes people against the law in a way that selling it wouldn’t.

When the time comes to shut down they will probably do some paper work fuckery that technically makes it an Irish company but doesn’t change the people in the company.

It is a video of an Australian citizen being stabbed to death and they are doing it because they dont want the video to encourage other psychos to do the same thing.

I just want to recontextualize it because free speech warriors have a tendency to disambiguate the thing they are talking about.

You are literally one of those guys. All your replies in this thread is you being that guy.

I described a behaviour and two qualities. I said that people with the behaviour often have these two qualities. I then said I dont respect people with that behaviour.

There are a lot if people that are stupid but still fun and interesting people. They have skills that I don’t have and perspectives that I don’t have. They have found ways to interact with the world that works with their shortcomings. I respect them.

Some stupid people decide to hide their stupidity by spending a lot of time arguing that they shouldn’t have to elaborate on their opinion and we should treat all opinions the same without scrutiny. They dont grow, they dont learn, they make their own shortcomings other peoples problem. I dont respect them.

I also dont respect people that start comments with a joker laugh.

People that spend energy on arguing their right to have opinions rather than defending the opinion are deeply uninteresting and often stupid people that I don’t not respect in any capacity.

But Russians are still able to compete under neutral flag, same as last year.

This lets them feel like victims but also take credit for any medals Russian athletes win. I honestly don’t understand why the Olympics insist on having Russians competing when they cheated systematically even before they started murdering Ukrainians.

I wish they would have made the thing an anthology. Each season with new kids and a different town with a different high concept conspiracy thing. They are actually making their world smaller by drilling down and explaining the upside down. It’s called stranger things plural, not that one strange thing.

Rogue is a type of person and going rogue has the same etymology. We have lots off expressions that ascribes living qualities to inert things and that is fine. It is a very human thing to do. But in the field of AI we need to be very firm in what AI is.

You should stop using humanizing terms for algorithms.

Humans go rouge, programs are broken. Stop using humanizing terms for algoritms.

Is that good? The article gives no context for the results.
