  • Releasing hostages was NOT something Israel said would end the conflict. They pulled that little line out of their agreed deal. Temporary ceasefire if they release all hostages…so…long enough to look pretty for the camera and then start it all over again.

    You’ve said before that the only actions taken in the last 70 years in that region were from Palestinians attacking Israel, ignoring every single event that Israel took the lion’s share in. Are you being willfully ignorant as to avoid finding out details you don’t like?

    Not a single person in this thread is praising Hamas, no one is advocating for the death of civilians, or celebrating it. But they are calling out dehumanizing behavior, like personally signing (with a cute message no less) bombs that may or may not be dropped on civilians. Historically speaking, like, within the last week even, we can assume some of those bombs were dropped on designated safe zones.


  • I just started diving into the space from a localized point yesterday. And I can say that there are definitely problems with garbage spewing, but some of these models are getting really really good at really specific things.

    A biomedical model I saw seemed lauded for it’s consistency in pulling relevant data from medical notes for the sake of patient care instructions, important risk factors, fall risk level etc.

    So although I agree they’re still giving well phrased garbage for big general cases (and GPT4 seems to be much more ‘savvy’), the specific use cases are getting much better and I’m stoked to see how that continues.













  • That’s not brainteasers or evil, there’s a fucking wall of text of nuance in front of you, you should read it. He’s not saying it’s good, or that it’s right, he’s saying it’s smart to leave.

    If you want to live, with the best chances, leaving makes sense.

    If you want your children to grow up somewhere where they don’t fear for their lives, leaving makes sense.

    If you don’t want to be subject to the attacks of a hostile nation that is basically mandated to be directly next to you, leaving makes sense.

    It’s terrible, I would hate to have to leave my home and the place of my community due to violence. But I am not so attached to any piece of land that it is worth more than my life or the life of my family. If people choose not to leave, I understand the reasoning, but I still believe it a safer and smarter option to leave.






  • The Megaman series feels difficult to me too, the Megaman X series feels difficult but it’s got a soft spot due to when I was growing up. I highly recommend the Legacy Collection for megamanX, it gives some features the originals were lacking that were infuriating (like remembering passwords in order to ‘save’).

    20xx and 30xx are ‘spiritual successors’ to the Megaman X series, but it’s a rogue-like, meaning portions of it are randomly generated and when you die you do start over and the power ups you get are not set in stone in terms of order or whether you’ll see them at all. So if you liked Megaman X but wanted something that’s got an ‘active’ community and even co-op, it’s definitely worth a look.
