My school back in the day used its funds to teardown the old huge playset and replace it with an even bigger caged football/basketball field. Needless to say, we went out a lot less during lunch hours since.

In an ideal world it would be nice to be able to do that, but in our it's just misleading.

It broke my european mind when I was talking to an American about fuel prices. I spend like 90$ a month MAX, usually less on petrol. And then this mother fucker says 200-300$ A WEEK!!! BROTHER WHAT?!? And American fuel price are lower than here due to government subsidies, so like holy shit... How much more is that thing eating up??? He said that he only included his non work driving too...

I love how people are debating this as if it's not a well understood concept. Can't wait till we get headlines like "1/4 of people belive a bullet to the head might possibly be fatal in some cases".

And then came the mass layoffs.

I completely forgot the US still uses lie detectors... Jesus christ, what a backwards country.

He's just a dumb attention seeker. Of course he's gonna shit on the most over-engineered thing in existence. Tho the context of the shitty engineering his companies do makes this even funnier. What a loser.

Nah fam, I didn't know how much of a thing it was until I went to the states. Every time there's a subject to learn in school or some new policy, it must have an acronym, bonus points if it also features a flow chart guide for dummies.

Quite so. Same with the uniquely American obsession with acronyms. I swear to god, everything they touch gets one.

Assuming we can get AGI. So far there's been little proof we're any closer to getting an AI that can actually apply logic to problems that aren't popular enough to be spelled out a dozen times in the dataset it's trained on. Ya know, the whole perfect scores on well known and respected collage tests, but failing to solve slightly altered riddles for children? It being literally incapable of learning new concepts is a pretty major pitfall if you ask me.

I'm really sick and tired of this "we just gotta make a machine that can learn and then we can teach it anything" line. It's nothing new, people were saying this shit since fucking 1950 when Alan Turing wrote it in a paper. A machine looking at an unholy amount of text and evaluation based on a new prompt, what is the most likely word to follow, IS NOT LEARNING!!! I was sick of this dilema before LLMs were a thing, but now it's just mind numbing.

Just another cost of running business.

 

Honestly, it just feels like a matter of time before we're gonna see tractor sized vehicles around in cities and people are still gonna say they NEED them for groceries. Yet when I actually visited America and we went grocery shopping with a pickup the size of my room back home, I got the experience of having shopping bags on my lap in the passage seat for the first time ever. Like where else you gonna put it? The trunk? The back seats??? Oh you jokester! There's like legit no space inside these things.

Meat is expensive. (lemmy.world)

No but like seriously, why are vegan and vegetarian options always MORE expensive at restaurants. Whenever I cook my self, the meat is BY FAR the most expensive part of any meal. Meanwhile stuff like soy strips are DIRT CHEAP, not to mention they last basically forever!

The canteen I go to for lunch actually sells the meatless meals for 2/3 of the price, always a taunting reminder. Like hell yea, that's how ya convert me!
