These aren't mission critical systems, they can lose their email

They are just predicting the next token. In human text it's more common to talk to other people than a computer, so they end up talking to the computers like they were people.

Because java is garbage-collected and doesn't have any of the problems of C++ exceptions, so checked exceptions just become a nuisance of having to try/catch everything.

Earth (and the solar system) is 4.3B years old, a bit more than a third of that, so it's not really that much time in comparison no?

> There's no point maintaining the illusion that we're soliciting feedback or discussion on the issues tracker when we are not. You could have just said this (maybe you did when li…

A human leg isn't designed to be repaired from the outside, it doesn't need replacement parts, it doesn't need external maintenance. It's designed around the maintenance and repair…

On one hand it's true, on the other people want stability in their jobs. You need a compromise between flexibility for the employer and stability for the employee, and one such com…

LLMs are not humans, nowhere near.

We don't know what LLMs encode because we don't know what the model weights represent. On the second point it depends how the models were made to reporduce text verbatim. If i copy…

It wouldn't amplify them, there's no energy gain. A gravitational lenses just bends the trajectory of the waves. If you do it right it may be possible to use that to focus the sign…

That... sounds like an unreasonable bias to me

To add to what other people said: we're talking about criminal trials, here "on average" isn't enough. Criminal procedure requires such a high standard of certainty(proving without…

If there were no patents most of them would just be kept as secrets, and you would, for the most part, get right back where you started(if not in a worse position)

No, they are questioning the parent comment's argument that patents are against the basis for modern technological development itself, which is obviously false if patents where pre…

Still doesn't add anything useful to the conversation

> I'm pretty sure the vote would be a firm "No" So... you're critizing having no elections by assuming the outcome of one based purely on personal intuition? I think you're making …

Starlink satellites naturally decay into unstable orbits after 5 years without boost-backs

I get your point with blockchain(altough i'd like a source for 2% of the entire human energy production going into it) but ads are useful actually, they make people know about what…

It'd be all fine and dandy if you didn't hop in a car after getting off your Airbus

Pilot's shouldn't be encouraged to walk out of the cockpit mid flight, also after 9/11 all cockpit doors are locked during flight

It's still a neural network, like your brain. It lacks plasticity and can't "learn" autonoumously but it's still one step closer in creating an artifical brain

Relativity is the least of your concerns when different planets have different length "hours"

It's not only insurance, rent and cost of living in general is (on average) higher in the US, partly because of the higher wages

Astronomers today measure the distance between Earth and the Moon by shining a laser beam towards it and measuring the time it takes to come back. Now, guess why the beam actually …
