Oddly, the decibels go up the further from home an American is, so I'd need current position to do the math.

Isn't it supposed to be pronounced "YOUR-uh-nuss"? I get that people will prefer the childish pronunciation, but the one I listed is preferred by scientists, so it's not an issue there.

Yup, the average American certainly is 200kg. 😀

As an American, that's a normal small size of mayo. Most of our "regular" sizes are almost double that, this is about the size of those smaller squeeze bottles:

Nah, the ounce is a unit of weight and volume. 55 gallons = 7040 fl oz ~= 7040 oz ~= 440 lbs = 200kg.

Aren't American units great? Here's a nice converter for various things, including mayo, which is ~0.94 oz per fl oz. But generally speaking, a fluid ounce is roughly the same as a weight ounce, kind of like how a milliliter is roughly the same as a gram (exactly equal for water, while a fluid ounce isn't exactly equal to a weight ounce for water).

Do you have an alternate source that proves your point, or is your entire argument "because I said so"? Whether something avoids taxes or not has little to do with its credibility, you'll need stronger evidence than that.

And I don't know what you mean by "polls are not accurate." Yeah, they're unreliable for certain things (I.e. predicting election results) because people lie and change their minds, and elections are generally decided on a per-state basis, so just one or two "flipping" is enough to turn an election. They're more reliable for other things, like tracking sentiment across a longer period of time.

I certainly don't buy the "6 hours saved per week" statement here (that's self-reported and a small sample size), but I do buy that teachers are using AI more and more to assist w/ their work. Surveys can only tell you so much, and it's important to not read too much into them, but that doesn't mean they're worthless or misleading.

Sure, but the WAN show kinda sucks, it's basically Linus spewing some nonsense and Luke trying to keep him somewhat rational.

Or for linking an LTT video. I'm also not a fan, but I'm not going to downvote a relevant post just because I don't like the presenter.

Yup, that's correct. What about it?

? Media bias fact check says it's left-center w/ high factual accuracy. The poll itself is from Gallup, which is quite reputable, and The Walton Family Foundation, which is also reputable.

Are you thinking of something else?

Exactly. If anyone is going to be using AI at the forefront, it should be teachers, for two reasons:

• so they can teach students its proper use because it will come up
• education is closely tracked, so we can see the impact of teachers relying on AI in student outcomes

I think this is fantastic!

LLMs don't use that much energy once trained. We run some models on a Mac Mini at work, and that thing sips power. Since education materials don't change much, there's no reason to need an up-to-date model for most subjects.

Cool! My SO played it a bit, then got tired of it. Maybe I'll give it a spin!

¿Por que no los dos?

Eh, I think the overall size is about the same, but the number of people is reducing.

Yup, a gallon is about 3.75 times the size of a liter, or multiply by 4 and round down.

55 gallons is about the size of the average American, or something in the neighborhood of 200kg.

I heard the Rivian comes w/ an air compressor. Maybe consider using that to spray the mayo straight from the truck so you don't need the fork lift.

One glass? Do you want to get dehydrated?

That seems kind of expensive. The Costco 64oz variety is often on sale for <$10.
