It is far off. It's like saying you have the entire knowledge of all physics because you skimmed a textbook once.

Interpretation is also a problem that can be solved, current models do understand quite a lot of nuance, subtext and implicit context.

But you're moving the goal post here. We started at "don't get better, at a plateau" and now you're aiming for perfection.

That is literally a complete misinterpretation of how models work.

You don't "have the Internet as a model", you train a model using large amounts of data. That does not mean, that this model contains any of the actual data. State of the at models are somewhere in the billions of parameters. If you have, say, 50b parameters, each being a 64bit/8 byte double (which is way, way too much accuracy) you get something like 400gb of data. That's a lot, but the Internet slightly larger than that.

That's maybe because we've reached the limits of what the current architecture of models can achieve on the current architecture of GPUs.

To create significantly better models without having a fundamentally new approach, you have to increase the model size. And if all accelerators accessible to you only offer, say, 24gb, you can't grow infinitely. At least not within a reasonable timeframe.

I still need a cable modem. And as far as I know, none of the ones that can be used with my provider support any other OS.

I thought that was obvious enough.

Freedom of (my, and only my) speech.

Jellyfin on a NAS plus a cheap little box attached to the TV should be fine.

An old RPi3 could be enough. Only complications might be transcoding. If the player can't handle the format, you might need to transcode, which could be taxing on the NAS.

As long as Ghana isn't full, we Westerners can keep consuming waste happily.

I mean, what is the value of a Ghanaian child compared to having to use a phone for 10 years with a third battery replacement?

Or, I keep using my Fritzbox, which is a single device and does everything I want.

As far as I know, there is no cable modem/router integrated device.

Apparently I look a lot like a certain, well known actor. So much so, that several people independently of each other told me that.

What's the deal with / as tmpfs about? I'm so trying to understand nixos.

Then you're still looking at a mess of devices and a relatively power hungry system plus you still have your ISPs modem

I need my Internet for work, so I just replaced my ISPs modem with a FritzBox, which is not ideal, but serves me well, gets updates for quite a while and works pretty much always.

They often enough blame these problems on the state. Like we aren't capitalisming hard enough and if only the last remnants of regulation will fall, the shining light of free market economy will make everyone happier.

I mean, it's at the very edge of what science can do and realistically there's not that much else you could do except test on relatively highly developed animals. You'd kind of expect that to happen, but I don't see a viable alternative.

Teaching complete "clean slates" is a great way to re-evaluate your understanding.

I've had to teach a few apprentices and while they were perfectly reasonable and bright people, they had absolutely no idea, how computers worked internally. It's really hard to put yourself in the shoes of such persons if it's been too long since you were at this point of ignorance.

But it's not good publicity, just like the soup throwing is not food publicity.

Everyone already knows about both problems and everyone who wants to have an opinion already has one. But those who are on the fence about it, will be alienated by this.

Such an action might have been a reasonable publicity stunt in the 20s, but definitely not today.

The equivalent would be to enslave white children to show them what slavery is.

Seriously, why do you think it's okay to discriminate against people as retaliation? How do you think that helps anyone? Do you really think, a misogynist will stand in front of this art gallery and reflect whether women might actually be real humans after all? What's happening is, that a bunch of selfrighteous pseudo-intellectuals will jerk each other off on how progressive and artsy they are, and a bunch of actual misogynists have even more fuel for their crowd to stoke their hate. Wow. What a win for everyone involved. Alienation of former allies and even more hate. A true victory.

And the fact that there's almost never a clear answer anyway. There are very few instances where blanket statements are true.

Also, how often do you have the scientific or journalistic background to prove your point?

Maybe his idea of a town square is more like a place for Nuremberg rally events.

If you'd be ISIS, you'd probably blow yourself up in your workshop, since judging from your comments, you don't understand reality as much as you think you do. Which ironically is kind of a requirement for joining a religious terrorist group.
