Keeper of Time

🎵 If I could turn back time… 🎵

It might tell you to go a way that is unsafe, blocked, impassable, flooded, etc.

Both practically and theoretically, it might be impossible. It basically comes down to trusting trust. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJ7lOus1FzQ

To the victor goes the scholarship.

Then I suppose the question is reduced to how one should select the 5 people! :)

I would suggest getting an ortholinear keyboard. When I first switched to a Kinesis advantage, the FIRST thing I noticed was how many terrible habits I had of hitting a key with the wrong finger (even twisting my hand about, if you can believe that). Having keys in line with actual finger geometry cured that mess up real quick!

Perhaps more important is to have devices start or fall open… if the OEM has lost interest in it, let others support the device. Make ewaste valuable and avoidable.

I assume that is the intended purpose of the wago connector over the hot line.

I’m not talking about one-offs and the assessment noise floor, more like: “ChatGPT broke the Turing test” (as is claimed). It used to be something we tried to attain, and now we don’t even bother trying to make GPT seem human… we actually train them to say otherwise lest people forget. We figuratively pole-vaulted over the turing test and are now on the other side of it, as if it was a point on a timeline instead of an academic procedure.

The natural general hype is not new… I even see it in 1970’s scifi. It’s like once something pierced the long-thought-impossible turing test, decades of hype pressure suddenly and freely flowed.

There is also an unnatural hype (that with one breakthrough will come another) and that the next one might yield a technocratic singularity to the first-mover: money, market dominance, and control.

Which brings the tertiary effect (closer to your question)… companies are so quickly and blindly eating so many billions of dollars of first-mover costs that the corporate copium wants to believe there will be a return (or at least cost defrayal)… so you get a bunch of shitty AI products, and pressure towards them.

Are you saying that you DON’T walk that close to other pedestrians?

“…on your car insurance.” Gets me every time! :)

At up to 100% productivity…

In John Carpenter’s 1988 film They Live, Hoffman lenses are depicted as special sunglasses that allow the wearer to see hidden messages and the true nature of their environment. When the protagonist, Nada, puts on these glasses, he can perceive the concealed presence of aliens and view subliminal messages such as “OBEY” and “CONSUME,” which are otherwise invisible to the naked eye. The lenses serve as a symbolic tool for revealing the film’s critique of consumerism and social control.

I guess if it over-performs you could always return it as defective.

ELI5: “Up to 100” means “<=100”. So 0% still falls in that range. Could even be negative (counter-productive).

What gets me is the “this phone cant be trusted” message on boot. Implying OEM roms are trustworthy, but nothing i choose or create could possibly be.
