  • Any other newspaper should know better. The Washington Times doesn't want to know better, because "I didn't know" is a very convenient excuse when you publish Nazi shit every day.

  • Permanently Deleted

    Jump
  • Google Lens already did that though, all you need is decent OCR and an image classification model (which is a precursor to the current "AI" hype, but actually useful).

  • Time to read Neuromancer again. It's such a perfect cyberpunk novel, it's weird that it didn't get a movie adaptation with terrible CGI in the 90s.

  • Imagine being in 2018+7 and after finally abandoning the sewer of the internet and moving to barely-an-improvement Bluesky, you take a screenshot of your Bluesky post, open the bane of civilization, the killer of democracy, the Guantanamo Bay of the digital world, motherfucking Facebook and pretend like you're an upstanding, principled citizen.

    Oh, but actually his post is the lowest of the low, making potshots at the sheep instead of addressing the policy itself. Declaring English the official language is the virtue-signaling of the right. Nobody cares about the actual goal, implementation or effects of such a declaration; the politicians and their voters and Steve here only care about the optics.

  • I just reply to things that show up my feed honestly and pretty randomly

    No one asked you to and in fact temp banned you for it, so try to read the room next time

  • Why the hell would you go on a book community, open a discussion post that is clearly asking for personal opinions and go "I dunno lol go ask chatgpt". I would've banned you too tbqh.

  • Yeah, I'm just memeing. The first thought in my head when I read her name was "...and Zendaya?? Oh-ho damn..."

  • "I am based and I have good taste"

  • The babies were introduced as a plot device in Shrek the Third in 2007 and no one really cared about them. They returned in Shrek Forever After, this time as characters instead of stakes, but not many people were interested to see another Shrek movie after Shrek the Third. Forever After was kinda decent though, from what I remember. Compared to 3 at least.

  • You can find Friendship is Witchcraft on Youtube, it's some of the best the fandom ever made. (Also, the show itself is pretty good, would recommend.)

  • Zendaya is a former Disney Channel star who is best known for voicing Shrek's daughter Felicia in the recently released teaser for Shrek 5.

  • The total area of Greenland is 2.1 million km², but where other countries have usable land and maybe some lakes, Greenland has 1.7 million km² of ice. There's some land under there, but much less than you might think:

    The US has 9.1 million km² of actual land, so if we're counting the ice, a quarter is about right.

  • If that was the red-green distribution, no one would be arguing whether it was a greenish-red or a reddish-green, because we all know about yellow. OP's color is teal.

  • I did two runs, the first ended at 177 (three more greens than 76%of respondents), the second at 174 (the exact median). I think the methodology is flawed, there's a little randomness at the threshold so you need to gather more data to be certain of a person's perception. You'll see that the same hue can seem bluer when it follows a strong green, or greener when it follows a weak green.

    Edit: did a third run, this time staring at a white wall for 5 seconds between each color and responding as quickly as possible. Got 170, way over in the green. A lot of it looked like a pale blue sky.

  • If Pong is an RPG, then tennis is an RPG. When I use reflexes to move the paddles, I'm not playing the role of a tennis player, I am playing tennis (some form of it at least).

  • You can do either, but you usually do neither. The best way is to throw a new exception for your situation and add the caught exception as an inner exception. Because rethrowing resets the stack trace, removing the context from an exception message that is often pretty vague, and "bouncing" with throw; doesn't tell the next exception handler that you already handled (part of) the exception.

  • This is probably because of a lack of training data, where it is referencing only one example and that example just had a mistake in it.

    The one example could be flawless, but the output of an LLM is influenced by all of its input. 99.999% of that input is irrelevant to your situation, so of course it's going to degenerate the output.

    What you (and everyone else) needs is a good search engine to find the needle in the haystack of human knowledge, you don't need that haystack ground down to dust to give you a needle-shaped piece of crap with slightly more iron than average.

  • After almost 2 years, Roshan's pit is back where it belongs. I think the pit switch is a good solution to the Pit Problem, but sticking those pits all the way in the corners made it really difficult to contest a Roshan attempt. You needed to commit pretty hard just to get there and then the terrain was pretty difficult to get a good Blink angle on too. Now we have it back in the middle of the map and it will be fun to see the dynamic plays around there. And I hope to see Roshan barreling through a team fight in the mid lane during TI 2025.

  • There's something weird about the naming scheme here.

    1. Article about X0 (Air Bud)
    2. List of articles about X1 (Dogs playing basketball)
    3. Lists of articles about X2 (Dogs playing sports)
    4. List of lists of lists

    Level 3 should have been "List of lists of articles". And if 4 had been fully specified as "List of lists of lists of articles about X3", it wouldn't contain itself.
