Or you can just admit you dont have any data to quantify your assertion that AI advancement is exponential growth.

Ah, that's a fair argument. LLMs growing exponentially is just an assertion being made and we're supposed to believe that then the steep growth must be just around the corner.

But all over this post you've got heavily downvoted comments that sound like you are misunderstanding exponential functions rather than doubting that they're the right model for this.

We might be on the steep part of an S function right now.

Fuck. Is anyone in Europe working on a vaccine? Once the 'muricans have incubated the mammalian version of this virus, we're going to need it. What's BioNTech doing? Its mostly their tech anyway.

Portugal

Is this the obvious counter example we've been waiting for to finally disprove Betteridge's law of headlines?

Great. Now I've got that stuck in my head.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I saw her in a place called San Martino.

People have advanced from not reading the article to not reading the excerpt in the post. Quite impressive really.

Say 50.1% of the population vote to leave so it's on, then some people change their minds or some people die while others turn 18, then it's 49.9% who want independence so it's off.

Thats exactly how it went with Brexit, except that they still went through with it.

😶 I lived for a few months just down the road from there a Piazza Lima. Somehow managed to miss the monument. Perhaps because after a while you start ignoring what looks like yet another WW1 monument.

Do you remember the name of this town. Poking at Google maps I find one in Malesco North of Lago Maggiore?

No one is saying neoliberalism is as far right as fascism.

GP comment said exactly that though. Although they did throw in an "about".

Poland actually got rid of their right wing government in the last election in 2023 and are hopefully dumping the president who's been blocking reform. It can be done.

Perhaps help pass voting reform and then split apart once the system allows that without obliterating the party.

Amazon can eat the tariff costs

There is no way they can eat a 135% (or whatever the lunacy dial is at) price increase. Nobody can and those items just won't get sold now.

You think it's somehow fair that he gets 2/3 of a neighbouring country?

I agree there is a simple and more concise way of answering, but I saw it as a teaching moment to go a bit more in depth.

Yeah, I think what you'll really get with a wall of text like this is that people don't read it and you missed the chance to influence them at all. Case in point: I didn't read your response. Just skimmed it for the above paragraph.

If you feel the need to write a lecture, at least answer the why question first. Otherwise people really don't care about the mechanics of the damned thing.

You're answering the wrong question. That's a "how" answer, not a "why" answer. Surely there is a simple one-paragraph explanation of why FPTP is terrible

On a side note, Ranked Choice specifically is only slightly better than FPTP compared to say Ranked Robin, STAR, or Score voting.

Whatever you do, please don't split the alternative voting vote and let FPTP win with 40%.

In fact you'll find that the work sets you free.

Do you also expect the cost of titling and taxes be included in the advertised price?

As a European, yes. Absolutely fucking yes. I drove a Model 3 away (a while ago obviously) with all papers in order paying exactly the listed price.
