I couldn’t care less about power consumption at this couple of hundred W range. The difference is probably a couple of dollars a month with home computer usage.

Exporting electricity takes a bunch of infrastructure.

Single payer is good but it doesn’t solve the problem of really sick old people running up the bill for everyone. I don’t even see what the way out is. Really old people that are subjectively classified as irrecoverable have to get private insurance on top of single payer maybe otherwise you get cut off. That subjective decision maker will get called a “death panel” though. Someone’s got to make some hard decisions somewhere.

I hate texting. So much fiddling with the fingers for something I could say in 30 seconds face to face/over the phone.

In SWE managers never really care about time off unless there’s a legitimate reason like a severely impacted team or taking time off at a crunch.

That just seems like adaptive cruise control. Comparing Tesla to this is apples and oranges.

Is this a nefarious use case?

Stable diffusion’s model still won’t do pornography, hate speech etc. right? I’ve only run it using DreamStudio.

I’m completely onboard with chatGPT’s “moralizing”. It may be an unpopular opinion but it’s a better experience and keeps the riff raff out.

Exactly, I’ve done OMAD continuously for two years now and it has worked well for me. The only thing you should be looking at is it’s hard to get all your vitamins and minerals from one meal a day so make sure you take a multivitamin.

This is too bad because I rarely want to eat in the mornings. I’ve always skipped breakfast because I can’t build an appetite until lunchtime. I truly enjoy the food during dinner however.

I guess monetizing chatGPT should be simple, I would pay a monthly subscription for it in a heartbeat. Are there any competitors at this point that can match its performance? How hard would it be to replicate?

Lose weight for the most part with tangible results over a relatively short time. This is in contrast to something like just skipping breakfast.

I’ve been doing OMAD for two years and I can’t remember the last time I’ve been constipated.

OMAD (one meal per day) genuinely works with the only caveat being that you need to make sure you’re getting all your nutritional requirements for the day. This means having a larger single meal and taking multivitamins for me. Also I avoid all processed foods, especially processed meat. I’ve been doing it for two years now.

As a Canadian, Canada needs way more people for how much habitable land we have.

Anecdotal tip. It’s next to impossible to drop from daily to weekly. It has to be way more infrequent- like biannual for you to not fall back into daily usage.

Really not all that bad as long as he’s allowed to bring food/alcohol from ports onboard. Does it have a kitchen? Or does he have to always buy overpriced cruise ship food. That seems like it would be the dealbreaker for me.

What’s the algorithm here? Can you whiteboard/pseudo code it haha?

Only until what you say is an explicit or implicit threat to my life.

Every human is trained on previous “hard work”. There’s no difference and your Luddite behavior is going to go… well the way of the Luddites.

This probably not the right place to post this but on a tangent- is nihilism intrinsically bad? It seems like the most logical thing, nothing has meaning and everything just is.

I don’t think that means anything though. Doom the game is not a Turing complete programming language. You could write doom in the underlying C and then have it run on a screen in game but that still wouldn’t be doom running doom.

In fact now I’ve confused myself, what would constitute doom running doom?

You can always find something to do. Read, travel, cook, socialize, build things etc. none of this has to be monetized so even if everything in the world is automated, the fun is in the process.

Wouldn’t having a propane burner on 24 hours a day be very expensive?

Also, does it really make that much of a difference? I feel like after a couple of hours with a fresh batch you could be right back where you started without really missing out on too much.

Don’t be silly. There’s no way to do a writing course without extensively writing about a prompt.

With chatGPT just plug it in and out pops your finished essay.

You have learnt nothing besides some minor comprehension skills.

Same with programming courses. It will answer all basic coding prompts. You cannot learn by just reading through a solved solution no matter how much you want to make the case for it.

Grudging upvote because you’re not wrong.

As long as I can, prob 12 unless school requires a laptop or something.

You protect them by not giving them a smart phone. My daughter is 2 and she hasn’t seen a screen yet.

Why aren’t the male chicks raised and used as food? Is it only chickens that we use for consumption?
