Why would people from Poland cross the ocean just to take down some cameras in the US?

4·7 days agoI do not believe a permissive license has any notion of consent. You can’t stop someone from forking your code as long as they follow the rules of the license, like crediting you.
Does the LLM ever credit the original author when it spits out code?

Sorry, but I don’t really care about e-girls. I only care about i-ladies.
When a child does not want to learn, You just have to force them to learn. But when a child is curious and wants to learn? That makes things harder, because now you first have to root said curiosity out of them before you can start coercing them into learning.

7·12 days agoAbout a decade ago they discovered a lost tablet that adds 20 “new” lines to the Epic of Gilgamesh. Four millennia, and all they had to do was dust it off and translate it. Stone tablets turn out to be a very good medium for preserving culture.
Video games is also a cultural medium - video games are also pieces of culture. They should not be intentionally made to be lost to time.
the absolute best
Not the absolute best you can do in general - just the absolute best you can do with your right to vote.
The Two Party System means that either the Democrats’ candidate becomes the president or the Republicans’ candidate becomes the president - it’s effectively impossible for a third party candidate to win, and the presidential power of the elected candidate does not get diminished just because less people voted in total. This means that if one candidate is more evil than the other - then the less evil candidate winning is the best possible outcome (out of only two possible outcomes) of the elections.
This does not mean that you can’t do better in general. Just that whatever you do better is orthogonal to voting. If you are working on a mini black hole that you plan to unleash in Washington to erase the entire government thus eliminating all its evil, then on voting day you go and vote for the lesser evil and then go back to your garage and continue working on your singularity bomb. After voting. Because voting does impact - even if it can’t magically fix anything - and voting does not hinder your ability to influence in more impactful ways.
Obama deported a lot, and violated due process, but it’s still not as bad as Trump’s deportations because the deportees were released at the countries they were deported at - which sucks if said country is an active war zone, yes, but still not as bad as being sent to a prison like the one in El Salvador where not even SCOTUS can retrieve them.
Evil? Yes. As evil as Trump? no.









Okay, but that has nothing to do with the roller coaster.
