The actual answer is that in western culture, it’s generally taken as a given that stealing is wrong. It’s in the 10 commandments.

“Hoarding” doesn’t hold the same position in western mythos.

Applying pressure to an assumed moral certainty (thou shalt not steal) is fundamentally interesting. Applying pressure to a position where people don’t hold culturally ethical baggage (hoarding) is much less so.

Nailed it

So… indistinguishable from the statistical mean of human generated comments.

I got a LITTLE bit further than you.

Boils down to “make the ‘close enough’ number have some real meaning in your domain instead of just picking an arbitrarily small one”

… at least to my read. Again, like you, didn’t finish.

You don’t hire a company man to be CEO for the same reason you send out-of-state national guard to put down a protest.

This is actually the type of questions on the dementia tests (that he keeps calling “intelligence tests”) that he keeps saying that he’s “acing”

They should do a limited trial. Maybe just start with factorio?

Oh, ok yah. It might not be vim. It could literally be anything. I just thought I’d missed something

It’s a rare but not unheard of scenario for a US citizen to serve as a foreign head of state. A brief read makes it sound like a thorny issue. The US could theoretically attempt to strip his citizenship. Sounds like there was a Supreme Court decision in 1980 that would make that difficult… but there is a new Supreme Court.

I’d argue this has incredible artistic value. And I think that was the point.

Why?

I think people are willing to do some pretty shitty things to ensure thier families are hedged against the system in the system in which we live.

I think the number of people willing to do this drops dramatically if the material conditions of existence changed.

There are like 100 people on this planet who MAKE the world shitty. The rest of us are just thrust into a position to be shitty to provide meaningful security to the people we love.

OPs question is just any audio that strikes the listener as being a “real” sound. Doesn’t have to be long. Doesn’t have to be a song.

Because it just has to be “a” “real sound” i think there is an inherent measure of subjectivity. I might think a sound sounds like something you might not.

I think I’d approach this differently. I’d just pick a short time frame (maybe 0.5s) and generate 64kbs (PCM bitrate) worth of noise.

What percentage of those should have waveforms with any shape whatsoever within the domain of human perception. (What percent of random noise has the possibility of representation of a limited physical system interacting with the atmosphere in a way the human ear could perceive it)

Then, of that, subjectivity what percentage of those sounds “sound like a thing”.

The minimal sequence of bits required to produce a sound of a voice recognizably saying something is many many many many orders of magnitude greater than a phone number.

The original image was propaganda political persuasive media. This image is also propaganda political persuasive media.

As gross as AI slop is, as much as I don’t want it to exist at all, if I want to exist in reality I have to accept that it does.

A significant reason for MAGAs ascension and persistence is they’re better at propaganda political persuasive media. For MAGA-resisting groups to refuse to employ effective and efficient propaganda political persuasive media tooling on principle is just an extension of how we got here in the first place.

In the same way an armed populace is more difficult to oppress, a cultural war is easier when you’re not imposing self-inflicted munitions restrictions on yourself while your opponents use those same munitions to significant effect.

You can count me in like that but I insist a full measure of Mars, Bringer of War.

Well, five is right out.

I suspect that atmosphere composition makes different options more or less viable.

The difficulty/cost getting to orbit probably also would influence where a space elevator lands in terms of developmental priority.

They’ve secured a supermajority, if my read of the results is right. So, the latitude for serious changes is pretty wide.

Trick here is you need to volunteer something spicy first to lay the foundation that it’s safe to be spicy.

If you come out of the gate with spicy questions without calibrating what spicy is, expect plain answers regardless of the quality of the questions.

Relatively low hanging fruit is to get them to weigh in on a disagreement with two spicy sides… if it’s framed as being between you and someone you respect already, and you volunteer your own spicy take, that provides the safety for the other person to get involved
