ikr signing into my slrpnk.net account was like going to an old home I hadn’t been in for a while.

GOP do not fight Fascist

It’s worth remembering there was a “Never Trump” movement among Republicans, and it folded as soon as Trump won.

Downvoted for the Pearl Jam reference. weAreNotTheSame.jpg

(nah, jk, Pearl Jam’s all right…)

My last words will be: “Is this Loss?”

I totally forgot about it til I saw this here. There’s no 50501 event near me, luckily there’s an Indivisible activity I’m gonna try to get to.

Let me think for a second…

Elder Goths hold the secret to aging successfully.

Embrace that look and go juggalo!

You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside

Not applicable. I don’t think any of those people could be characterised as “beautiful on the outside.”

We’re also in the post-truth world, so it kinda doesn’t matter if it’s true or not…

When I was a kid and I was trying to get to sleep, I’d close my eyes and remember all the different bedroom layouts I’d lived in. Like in one place the wall was to the left and top and the door was down by the foot of the bed. In another place the wall was just to the top and the window was to the left and down. In another place the wall was just to the top and the door was to the top and left. etc.

I learned a really valuable lesson in first grade. My friend Daniele had a really nice belt-buckle, but he was wearing it upside-down. I was like: Daniele, why is your belt-buckle upside-down? And he was like: so when I look down, I can turn it up and look at it.

Daniele was a pretty wise kid.

When he asks to see their code, they send him a single file.

Sounds interesting. Glad those topics are still being investigated. So important to remember that even those neural methods labored for decades in the shadows before they finally found the answers they needed.

I personally agree. But if I pay for the cheapest option ahead of time, it hits different than a loved one deciding on the cheapest option for me, especially if they are grieving and a salesperson is offering them a range of options. Also, some people just want a big funeral for their own emotional reasons I dunno.

“discrete AI” (probably has a few other names)

• symbolic AI
• traditional AI
• GOFAI (good old fashioned) AI

Kinda sounds like you’re talking about Explainable AI too. Very interesting set of fields, but I’m pretty sure they’re all having funding problems too.

But wat if you’re indoors and have limited room for maneuver?

great (and brief) article.

there is “no point in claiming that the purpose of a system is to do what it constantly fails to do”

lel we have a lot to learn from those early systems theorists / cyberneticians.

The idea is that you figure all that stuff out for yourself beforehand, so your grieving family doesn’t have to make a lot of quick decisions.

This time god is drowning us letting us drown ourselves in trash.
