  • but wouldn’t that imply an interchangeability that doesn’t quite reflect skill, and even moreso institutional such?

    Sort of, yes. There’s definitely a difference between how an experienced hotel cleaner makes beds and how I make beds, but I can start cleaning hotelrooms tomorrow, without needing other qualifications. And you could also start tomorrow. And so could basically every other able-bodied adult, and we’d all do roughly the same job (though not as well as the person who’s done it for 10 years).

    But neither of us can start tomorrow as a plumber, because it requires pre-existing training. That’s not an unskilled job.



  • We got married for legal reasons. It’s much easier to get married than to get power of attorney, wills, and all that legal stuff done separately, so one day while sitting on the sofa looking at that stuff, I just said “hmm, you know, getting married is much easier”. And that was our proposal.

    We got married with just our close relatives there, because my mom would kill me if I didn’t invite her, and his grandma would help out.

    We DID have a big 10 year anniversary, because we wanted an excuse for a party, but it wasn’t wedding-like at all.










  • I am pro supying Ukraine with weapons, I am pro having a European defense pact, I just don’t think USA is doing it for democracy but for own imperialistic reasons.

    There’s a huge difference between realizing that every bullet the US ships to Ukraine helps weaken a major geopolitical opponent at several thousand times the efficiency of any other method, and claiming that doing so is “escalating the situation”.

    The situation is one (nuclear) step removed from maximum escalation, and it’s been like that since the first Russian stepped into Crimea, and the blame lies entirely with Russia.

    The claim that “outside parties are making the war worse” is quite literally propaganda by the party committing the genocide. Sure, every country helping Ukraine benefits from the aid they send, but that doesn’t mean it’s escalating, except in the sense that the war would be over if Russia had won.

    Every country is wrapping their contribution to the downfall of a geopolitical opponent in a nice gift wrap of ethical behaviour, and the fact that Russia sucks doesn’t mean the US doesn’t suck. But the only party escalating is Russia, and it can only ever be Russia.







  • … damn, these results are shockingly good, for a robot being given several English sentences. For zero human effort being put in - these models reproduced all the basic functionality of the game in question?

    Obviously not. The models were trained online, and that includes the code to hundreds of pacman clones on GitHub, all accompanies by the info in the prompt used.

    Considering they had perfect training data, the output is shockingly bad
