Really wish there was the complete data set rather than just looking at the immediate run up to the dot Com burst, and then from that peak to the trough of the aftermath of the 08 crash.

My idiot cat loves vacuums. Dives in front if them like they're security taking a bullet for some VIP.

She wants to get vacuumed. Makes hair management pretty easy since she'll enthusiastically let us vacuum the source.

IPoAC is my personal favorite

That is roughly the premise of Beavis and Butthead

People run whisper on HA, and there already exist intention mapping packages. They've been around for probably a decade already. Pretty hit or miss... mostly because there isn't a ton of flexibility in the structure of the commands you issue it.

If someone wanted to use an online LLM to attempt to translate a complex whisper transcription into something an existing intention mapped would handle well, that's closer to a day's worth of goofing around rather than a year. I actually refuse to believe it hasn't already been done.

And if you're using an online llm to do that translation, I don't see why that can't be behind a paywall either.

Honestly for this task, I imagine offline models would be sufficient.

I dunno. Timeliness seems reasonable.

AGI in 18 months. Start a timer in 12. I think a clock is roughly 66% of the complexity of AGI. Math checks out.

Imagine having to, because the most self-righteous, selfish people that possibly exist, opted to take "absolutr worst" over "bad"... and are still justifying it. Still lording thier moral superiority over the rest of us. Still incapable of grasping that thier self satisfaction came at a tangible cost to humans lives.

A big part of maturity, perhaps all of it, is recognizing that sometimes, you do need to degrade yourselves for others. Maybe not even to make things good for them, even just less bad.

Does it make me feel good to boil this down to an analogy like I'm talking to a 2 year old? No. It's degrading to say. I expect it's degrading to hear. But some people still don't get it.

The original person I responded to was describing the paradox as a social contract, and I was saying I don't think it really makes sense conceptually as a social contract for reasons. What I'm hearing you say is that it it prescribes nothing, so I would infer that to mean that is isn't really an agreement either, so not really a social contract either.

I still get the feeling that we're roughly at the same place but took different paths to get there

For the record, what makes it smell like propaganda is that I actually do think you're very aware of the pros and cons, and that you keep leading with the currency argument when it's by far the weakest argument. It's the most emotionally persuasive argument,however, because it's suggesting Canadians part with a tangible everyday item. People were flustered losing the penny. It pulls emotional levers that simply are not pulled by things like budget deficits and Dutch elm disease. It pulls emotional levels that need not be pulled or even approached because the point is settled already by Article 49. I think you absolutely know all of this, and that is my point.

With precedent of an opt-out clause.

There are plenty of reasons to join or not join a union of any kind.

"But Canada would be forced onto the Euro" to me reads as straight propaganda because it acts directly as an identity wedge. This is even before it not being strictly true.

If you're concerned about Canada joining the EU, you can merely state that article 49 restricts membership to European states, and it has already been tested by Morocco.

 
 

Our city leaves free dirt out at the fire station for people to spread on their sidewalks in the winter. I grabbed some for the back ally which is very icy.

I probably only grabbed 30 lbs or so, but I was still very diligent to lift it properly. Last thing I need over the holidays is to have a sore back.

 

I know that the CTrain reminders to not forget your newspapers when leaving the train have been overwhelmingly successful because I haven't seen a newspaper on the train even one time in the last 10 years.
