Maybe add some lead supplements to your diet first to build up tolerance.

Perhaps it will. And perhaps countless animals are already better than us at appreciating a good sunset, yet we do not seem to value them much.

> Apps are not infected with NetNut. This is just Google abusing their monopoly position to hurt its competitors.

If apps ship with stealth backdoors to sell access to the user's internal residential network, that's malware. I doubt any users want app providers to sell access to their private file server and anything else on their local network.

It doesn't seem like monopoly abuse to exclude such malware from application stores, just like key loggers or apps intercepting other apps network traffic without the user being aware of it (say the banking app's network traffic and password entry).

I've never seen a 1 lb bag of sugar. Sugar bags weigh more than 1 lb.

I have seen a 1 lb box of sugar.

Sorry, but most of us need to work to eat. This idea that our "value" is has nothing to do with the economy is an idea rooted in deep privilege, in the ability to say -- if I don't like my job, if I'm not employable, I can just retire, and the only problem will be figuring out how to live life afterwards.

Most colors in synthetic pigments are from conjugated double bonds that don't need relativistic effects to explain: no heavy atoms here!

This is a cached version from a Zhihu answer from China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation that was deleted a few minutes ago, so that's why I'm linking the cached version. Right click -> Translate to English on Chrome should work.

·3 นาทีที่ผ่านมา·The Four-Color Problem and Its Philosophical Significance (1979) [pdf]
At the time, this was a debate around our family dining table with an old school mathematician who graduated in the 1940s who grew into the computing era and founded a school of computer science, and three offspring (myself included) studying maths and computer science arguing the case either side.

Pre pdf, printouts of the paper were on continuous paper and my memory is a lot of the exemplar map examples were included in the draft as an appendix, begging the question if anyone was seriously arguing they'd find errors by looking at them.

"What does a mathemantical proof mean when a machine writes it and a machine verifies it" was a reductive but unanswerable position.

It's not. The EU for us Europeans is a vague institution, very far from our everyday lives.

Living anywhere near a quarry is no joke. There will be a lot more heavy trucks on the road, with drivers who care very little about covering and securing their loads and even less about your windshield.

> the very architects of AI are the people whose jobs are most easily automated by AI

Think very hard about what this implies for the future pace of AI R&D

That seems absolutely crazy to do. One could argue that the marginal cost to work for using a work laptop is zero and the work is still yours (still beyond the risk I’m willing to take). Using a company’s AI account is literally using the company’s resources for a personal project. There is no plausible case where they don’t own it.

The mistake was thinking the majority was smart.

There’s a lot of Elon haters here;

Anything related to Elon will always have the dumbest comment section.

You know it’s dumb when they say things like “it’s not needed. We already have this. i don’t see the point in this new tech” .

Well... yes, it would. In theory, efficiency gains are deflationary. Huge efficiency gains are hugely deflationary.

If we're producing 10x as much, why not print 10x as much money? The goods and services each dollar could buy would remain similar.

It is a great analogy even for someone from Europe.

In (4), though, I do not get the French exception. There are many countries in Europe with a president and a prime minister

Do you mean the caste system in Hindu society?

Yes, but real writing is also unbounded in complexity. Unicode can't do everything or it would just be a general purpose vector graphics language. Traditionally, writing systems had to adapt to the limitations of the technology (eg. runes with only straight lines for carving) or not using cursive for printing, but now computers can do so much, we just let everything go and try to recapture every arbitrary detail of the past we can squeeze in and people pay for that with human labor maintaining such a mountain of low-value capabilities.

Legal only in the sense that the requirement hasn't changed since the Romans invented the concept of time.

If you really want to think about it, were it not for them, we wouldn't have many of the things we have today.

Philip K. Dick was correct, the Roman Empire never truely fell.

I don't think rurp was saying there is no market, just that there was no obvious realistic TAM worth 1.6 trillion (going by the amount given by the S-1). How many people living remotely in an area with no fibre do you really expect there to be?

And they can get you for theft, etc, if you do. Sometimes the social and legal controls are far more effective.

I agree that AI writing is bloody awful, and that it's bad at creativity more generally, but are there actual objective measures of this?
