Would two gay men in guardianship refer to each other as their ‘husband’ (i.e. the word that a heterosexual couple would use), or is there a different word for it? Not trying to be argumentative just curious how closely guardianship is culturally associated with marriage.

Physically possibility is one thing. Materials and engineering constraints are another thing entirely.

Physically possible =/= Feasible.

MR MAMDANI NUKE THESE CARS IMMEDIATELY ‼️‼️

Whereabouts, geographically?

Exactly! This is what I always say. If a book introduces elves or tentacled aliens, then you basically know what you’re dealing with as they have an established cultural narrative. But FH’s worldbuilding is so fanrasitcally different to everything else, yet fits together so neatly, that it’s really compelling despite the weirdly paced plot.

Short youtube video explaining why tokenisation causes this bug. It’s an older video, so it talks about tokens as being whole-word rather than chunks of words, which is how most modern models work.

The other persons explanation doesn’t acknowledge that emergent reasoning does kind-of exist in LLMs. That’s why theyre able to say how many 5’s are in a large number, despite never seeing that problem before. They dont ‘just’ repeat things they’ve been trained on, though they often do.

Of course, if that problem did exist significantly in the training data, it would be more likely to get it right. But you could say the same about any number of things an LLM doesn’t know.

LLMs break words up into chunks of letters which commonly appear - suffixes like “-tion” and “-ism” are obvious examples. They then predict which chunk comes next based on the ones before, or whether the word will end.

This is very useful for generating sensible-looking text while at the same time correlating concepts associated with different words. However, it also means that the dont really “see” the letters that make up each word, just the chunks of letters, which are stored as mathematical vectors. This is why they struggle so much with analysing the makeup of words.

However, with numbers they generally store each digit individually, so they shouldnt have as much of a problem saying how many 5’s are in 1,589,005, for example.

I don’t think this particular genre of stupid will ever be fully fixed in LLMs to be honest, it’s fairly structural

Just tested with similar results, output was:

There are exactly 2 't’s in the word ‘colonialism’. C-o-l-o-n-i-a-l-i-s-m Would you like to check the spelling or character count of any other words? Let me know!

“Coloniatism” is my favourite

How does one accidentally type a π symbol in the middle of a word?

Huh, I never knew that. I always thought it was just some random internet obsession

They’re really just throwing stuff at the wall at this point

No - I prefer gnome. KDE has more “inbuilt” customisability in that you don’t necessarily have to mess about with extensions, but gnome has a large and well enough maintained extensions community that this doesn’t matter. I just thought it’d be more up your alley if you prefer cinnamon, which is also windows-like

Did you try the KDE plasma environment for fedora on desktop?

Large twitch chats definitely can be constructive and well moderated, and the mayors office definitely has the resources to do that. I’m cautiously optimistic

If you have recurring slight chest pain, it is by far most likely to be harmless, but you lose very little by getting it checked out, in contrast to potentially losing everything by not getting it checked out. Don’t worry, but don’t ignore it!

Yes. It loosely fits into the category of viral marketing, which usually tries to exploit positive emotions to spread brand awareness (eg. through memes), but in this case they’re achieving the same effect by harnessing people’s anger at the state of the world. It’s a little dark!

Hi this is a relatively new form of ‘ragebait’ ad which is designed to be shared on social media by people who hate it.

The vast majority of people think it’s disgusting, but it gets shared around enough that the CO’s which they’re actually marketing to will see it and be tempted.

Please don’t give it the attention it wants.
