We understand reasoning enough to know humans (and other animals with complex brains) reason in a way that LLMs cannot.

While our reasoning also works with pattern matching it incorporates immeasurably more signals than language - language is almost peripheric to it even in humans. And more importantly we experience things, everything we do acts as a small training round not just in language but on every aspect of the task we are performing, and gives us a miriad of patterns to match later.

Until AI can match a fragment of this we are not going to have an AGI. And for the experience aspect there’s no economic incentive under capitalism to achieve, if it happens it will come out of an underfunded university.

It still solves one end of the problem. The cable problem probably needs enforcement from law side.

It’s eastern Poland tilting the scales to the far-right, despite all the nationalistic talk they are still pretty russified.

Like all dating apps they have a strong incentive to promote superficial short-term connections over long term relationships so they have repeated customers. The worst thing that can happen to a dating app is their users finding a long term partner.

In other news, asking Nick Clegg before emptying out his home would kill the robbery industry.

That’s not inflation works. Inflation shouldn’t apply to everything at the same rate.

My first computer costed the equivalent to 1000 euros. Do you think the average desktop should cost 3000?

Who let them watch the Hunger Games?

Brand recognition. Which apparently is the only thing that matters these days.

There have been former Google employees saying they had solutions to deal with SEO, but they were vetoed by the ads side of business, since better results reduce “engagement”.

If the war on terror counts as a world war, then we are at least on world war 10.

Let’s pretend for a second that the TSA is not a circus meant to appease people that are not paying too much attention being performed by an organisation that’s effectively an employer of last resort.

The TSA will not even stop people from taking what they would need to make a Molotov cocktail with what they can buy in the airport shop. Their stated goal is not to reduce the risk of incidents to 0 is reducing it to reasonable level with the least disruption to the air travelers as possible - otherwise they would be trying to get people to fly naked and without luggage.

You are seriously misunderstanding TSA’s purpose.

And the issue with wireless communications in airplanes was never that it was a huge risk by itself, it was always that there’s a small chance that it could increase noise enough that some important communication might potentially be missed or misinterpreted. And there are lots of things that factor in the risk, like power, bands, and the amount of people not following the rules - it’s very different to have one person forgetting to shut off the cellular signal on the phone or to have 200 phones on full blast mode trying to reach the nearest antenna.

All airplanes I’ve been in the last decade explicitly allow Bluetooth - and it’s very easy for the staff to see the dozens of people wearing wireless head/earphones. For WiFi it’s usually tied to the existence of on-board Internet.

You half answered your question. Different band and very different levels of signal strength.

And there are airplanes that allow wifi, just not all of them yet.

This reminded me immediately of The Coffee Machine short story published last year. Reality manages to be stranger and weirder than fiction.

Not if they think they have enough of a cult following to pull an Apple.

And centralization solves this how? The other social networks are giving more checkmarks to grifters and scammers than they are giving them to honest people because, spoiler alert, con artists are very good at both building a following and paying bribes.

Because nothing helps a struggling economy like legalized nepotism.

It’s inevitable for ads supported social media.

They need to keep you “engaged” to show you more ads, and the most effective way to do it is to foster conflict.

You underestimate how much interface and algorithms impact how people interact with eachother.
