This makes me feel SO much better about forgetting people’s name and pronouns.

And in Xena: warrior princess, a wizard did it.

I’ve got a chemistry degree and I do reenactment and how average people lived throughout history is a big hobby of mine.

Media hurts me so much.

Nah, it can also do a ton of anything denser than water, or anything that can be compressed to be denser than water.

I’m on the “make stupid hurt” train.

They also have the second least reliable military in NATO.

They should immediately change them back. Fuck Turkey. It’s not like you can get kicked out, which is why Turkey is still in.

Well that, and they’re the only way into the black sea

“an unfortunate and voluntary relocation”, according to Turkey.

But everyone else can summarize in a single word, it starts with a G

Well, there’s the human rights violations, the denial of the genocide they committed, the complete tyrant that’s ruining their country…

I wouldn’t mind a little rebalancing though. There were quite a few builds that were basically ultra-hard-mode to finish the game with. If you played suboptimal, you got soft locked pretty quickly.

I feel like the amount of bigots in a game that requires knowing lots of words is below the population average.

But not THAT far.

I was one of those idiots who paid for the kickstarter, got some free ships, played the “game”… and then made quite a bit of money selling those ships and never looking at the game ever again.

And let me just add, Musk ordered the LIDAR removed against the engineers better judgement.

without people scoffing like it can only copy-paste whole things that already exist?

I’m actually scoffing it’s not even capable of doing that very well.

It’s a pretty simple question though, it just requires sanitized training data. Don’t include Pacman code, and then ask it for that.

… 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

It was probably benzene. Benzene is an amazing cleaning agent, if not for the fact that’s it’s both super volatile and super carcinogenic.

I’m a chemist by training. During my master’s degree I had an old professor who helped write several national safety regulations, fighting for several rules back in the 80’s when “workplace safety” meant “don’t leap out the window unless there’s a fire”. But he’d also clean lab tables (after hours) with benzene from a giant brown stoppered bottle he kept in his desk drawer, and he had the habit of turning his head sideways when working with volatiles, because you didn’t want any flammable gasses to contact the pipe you were always smoking while in the lab.

He joked that no amount of benzene was going to outcompete nonstop smoking from age 13, and he only quit when it was banned in the lab. He was the person who always told us that chemists died 10 years younger than everyone else, but not to worry, that was mostly because of his generation was skewing the stats, and we’d be fine.

He also died two years into retirement, from cancer of the everything.

I haven’t read it, since it’s MLP, and also since it’s apparently 2000 pages, so I can’t tell you. But I do want to know

Even the wiki is semi-cursed

Woah woah woah, sonichu is a totally Original Character (do not steal), that has nothing to do with either of those!

Measles is something like 4 to 5 times more infectious than covid. So yeah, there really isn’t much more to do
