  • They are basically cops. And the analogy holds on many level including that yes, some can genuinely be on your side and try to help you or fix the system from the inside, in a way, but it’s pretty much “luck based”, you have no foolproof way to tell one from the other.

    The wise strategy is to be your own HR, study the contracts and the laws. If you go in blind trusting HR you can be lucky and have a good happy professiona life or get fucked.

    Knowing also helps dramatically in undestanding where HR can realistically help, where it can harm and where it is going beyond expectations and is on your side.

    Don’t expect them to put you above their own survival though…

    I’ve never experienced it but the somewhat obvious trick is that it turns into a race to the bottom, where if you want to outperform your peers (or even meet the expectations of the company), the number of days off you freely decided to take turns into a KPI.

    So, people take even less days off when they are made free to take any amount.

    It’s why in Italy, for example, you can not refuse to go to holiday.



  • Notwithstanding that running an LLM is still more expensive than a search engine, in any reasoning around running an LLM you must include the training and, most of all, the incentive as a consumer you are giving to further training.

    It’s like arguing that cooking a steak has negligible environmental impact. The point is the whole industry meant to provide you the steak in the first place.

  • The speed of sound is commonly used as “the speed of sound in the atmosphere”, so something around 1200 Km/h.

    Either way if a creature like that existed, you’d have to question what we are looking at, it’s either NOT a galaxy in space, maybe a bunch of luminescent pollens or insects, or, if we are indeed in space, this would be definitive proof that there’s some intelligent creator out there and the laws of the universe are clearly arbitrary.

    It would still be unclear why such a specific silly event would take place, so I guess we’d have to give much more credit to the simulation theory.

    So I guess it’d close its mouth faster than the speed of light.


  • Yea basically the album transitions from a cringe Slim Shavy vs Eminem bunch of stuff into a Slim Shady being killed turning it into more of a solo “classic” Eminem.

    It’s littered with reference and remix of his older lyrics and tracks, which is nice in a maybe too nostalgic kind of way, but as and old millennial, I still think playing the offensive Slim Shady character and putting it next to a “reformed” Emined that yells “OMG you can’t say that nooooo!” is, at best, dumb as fuck and smells of “Marshall you don’t really get the point do you?”.

    But to be fair none of what he was saying back in the 2000s was any more acceptable. You listened to it without possibly agreeing to it.
