"It's me. The guy"

another annoying thing about AI discourse on here is how many anti-AI people still basically treat AI as synonymous with chatbot. like, regardless of which side you’re on, if you’re engaged enough to start discourse about it then you should be engaged enough to know that Ukraine and Russia are currently writing the next chapter of military tactics with AI-directed drones.

Anime fans in the English-speaking world talk a lot of shit about improbably powerful student councils for folks whose own media conventions include "what if a specific minor sports league operated as the de facto local government" as a recurring trope.

I love how the responses to this post are split about evenly between "I have literally never heard of that trope in my life" and "well, see, the difference is that the second one is actually realistic", and I bet I can guess which group is mostly American.

Prokopetz I'm American and would say that we have bizarre relationship with high school football. Student athletes in real life have a weird sort of clout. Is that what you mean? I'm still confused because your post describes a media trope whereby a "specific minor sports league" acts as the de facto local government, but I haven't seen anyone in the notes come up with an example. I don't think that even happens in King of the Hill

Since this has come up a number of times, I think it's time I finally made an explainer for the Monty Hall problem that I can link to in the future. Especially because there's been a bunch of answers that are almost correct, but if you try to apply the same reasoning to other problems, like the frog problem, they'll give you the wrong answer. See, normally if you go pick one of two doors, you got a 50/50 chance of winning. But the Monty Hall Problem is a statistical freak and its not normal. So you got a 25%, AT BEST, at beat it. Then you add the goat to the mix, your chances of winning drastic go down. See the 3 way at Let's Make a Deal, you got a 33 1/3 chance of winning, but I, I got a 66 and 2/3 chance of winning, because the goat KNOWS he can't beat me and he's not even gonna try! So, you take your 33 1/3 chance, minus my 25% chance and you got an 8 1/3 chance of winning at Let's Make a Deal. But then you take my 75% chance of winning, if we was to go one on one, and then add 66 2/3 per cents, I got 141 2/3 chance of winning at Let's Make a Deal. See, the numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you at Let's Make a Deal.

i love how children play with dolls like jpegs

pretty sure I did the chrome//flags thing a while ago, but also i switched to firefox, which is not without the occasional bullshit, but is vastly less bullshitty than chrome. This is why I treat genai "features" like the invasive blackberry bushes they are: cut, root, burn, and vigilantly watch for new shoots to uproot. I'm 54 years old and the world got by fine without genai for most of my lifetime.
