TIL stuffing isn’t normally vegetarian

Snow is simultaneously a particle and a wave. What you’re seeing is the destructive interference resulting from its wave-like behaviour.

I would say that the pain and follow-up soreness from working hard at the gym feels amazing in a non-sexual way.

What are these Manjaro controversies?

This isn’t without its own problems. If you fail to renew your domain and someone else picks it up, they now have access to all your accounts. At least with a popular provider like Gmail, they don’t allow emails to be reused, and if they ever discontinue email services and drop the gmail.com domain, everyone will know about it and know that password reset requests should not be sent to these emails.

People who don’t think questions on nostupidquestions should be criticized for being stupid.

We don’t know how rational or irrational this is. Kitchen fires do happen. If you don’t know how to prevent or handle them, then it’s a very rational fear to have.

Question: What is it about spiders that you think generates that ick factor in people?

The mess of webs they leave behind and how you constantly have to pay attention to every surface you put weight on lest you end up with a splotch of spider guts to clean up.

What do you typically use your mayo for? I’m curious because all the stuff you add to your mayo is stuff that I would normally have in whatever dish is using the mayo, so I’m wondering if it actually makes a difference to have it blended in the sauce versus separate.

A better comparison would be if the human in question was a random dude you pulled off the streets. If this was a cow that I grew up with and shared a bond with, then yeah, I’d obviously pick the cow over some dude I don’t know. If it’s a childhood friend versus a random cow I don’t know? Same thing but in reverse.

Could you process it further and package it up to sell as salt? Or is this not the same thing as table salt?

I’ve never found Bing chat to match up with the free ChatGPT. It often just refuses to answer my question while ChatGPT will at least take a guess and give me something to work with.

Quickly filtering out a subset of them to prioritize so that we get the most value possible out of the time that humans spend on it.

LLMs cannot:

• Tell fact from fiction
• Accurately recall data from its training set
• Count

LLMs can

• Translate
• Get the general vibe of a text (sentiment analysis)
• Generate plausible text

Semantics aside, they’re very different skills that require different setups to accomplish. Just because counting is an easier task than analysing text for humans, doesn’t mean it’s the same it’s the same for a LLM. You can’t use that as evidence for its inability to do the “harder” tasks.

Sounds to me like a 50% improvement over zero human eyes.

It certainly would be. Thankfully, there’s many more than zero human eyes involved in this.

Considering that it’s a language task, LLMs exist, and the cost, it’s a reasonable assumption. It’d be pretty silly to analyse a bag of words when you have tools you can use with minimal work with much better results. Even sillier to spend over $200 for something that can be run on a decade old machine in a few hours.

I’m surprised to hear German has a word for this, considering that stats I’ve previously seen show Germany as having the highest proportion of male sitting pee-ers.

They do not have sales data, so they use two different proxies: number of reviews, and number of active players.

I don’t see mention of how they get the number of active players. I’m assuming it’s through stats in Steam or something similar. If that’s the case, then their assumption of this number being biased towards being larger than the true number would be wrong. If you choose to both pirate and buy the game, chances are good that you’ll be playing the pirated version, and therefore would not get counted towards active players.

I would caution against using these numbers for any Calorie-in/out calculations. Even if they were 100% accurate, it still doesn’t take into account anything that happens outside of that machine.

Example: There’s something we call “non-exercise activity thermogenesis” (NEAT). This includes lots of things you do without thinking about it, like fidgeting, tapping your feet while sitting, or pacing around the room. In some people, NEAT can decrease significantly after exercise, which then negates much of the Calories burned.

Or maybe had to simultaneously work multiple full time jobs and a weekend job to make ends meet?
