“Wow Johnson, no matter how much biased data we feed this thing it just keeps repeating biases from human society.”
Sample input from a systematically racist society (the entire world), get systematically racist output.
No shit. Fix society or “tune” your model, whatever that entails…
Obviously only one of these is feasible from a developer perspective.
Amelie’s, Charlotte, NC. Used to go there all the time at night. 24/7 bakery, lounge, student study area.
The original building was torn down, which is sad, but I’ll always have the memories.
Yes, similar to the web of trust, there exists a web of trust for people based on reputation. Journalistic integrity, openness, scrutiny; these are just a few of the things that go away when experts go away.
People who dedicate their lives to truth should be recognized as such, and those who lie should be recognized as well. Outsourcing your information gathering to “randoms” just means that you will be swayed by whoever can afford the best bot farm.
And if you think you are unswayable, you are the perfect target.
Follow those who express curiosity, welcome questioning, and conduct themselves in good faith. It’s an iterative process, you don’t have to resolve it in a day.
Nope, just relatively. Though how do you want to define consciousness could change my nope to a yes. It’s all about the definition.
All I can see when I read this comment is a plaque to blind confidence. Don’t take it the wrong way, I don’t mean it as a wholly a bad thing… maybe 90% bad, 10% admiration. Confidence is powerful, but it works best when paired with other traits.
…but back to the thread, unless you’re involved in this topic at an academic level, can you explain the reasoning behind the confidence you appear to have in your perspective?
Another one bites the dust.
I admit it, I once assumed Elon was a genius.
(events happen)
Okay, not a genius, but a good businessman.
(events happen)
Okay, a bad businessman, a good PR person.
(events happen)
Okay, a bad PR person, but not a Nazi.
(events happen)
Well fuck, he’s a Nazi supporting conspiracy theorist.
God damn, if I was that wrong about one person. I’m just gonna stop having opinions about famous people. It’s all smoke and mirrors.
If you’re going to do the “both sides” thing. Then directly compare via measurable elements.
120,000+ (Palestine) in retaliation for 1,200 (Israel).
67 years occupied (Palestine) vs 0 years occupied.
Countless homes bulldozed in 67 years vs occasional successful terrorist attacks.
Oh wait, I get why you do the vague thing now… because when you draw it out proportionally Israel looks like a demon.
The “both sides bad” thing doesn’t work anymore, it’s played out and most people see through it. Though I guess you didn’t, so maybe it has some merit.
I did not know that, thank you.
Keep in mind this is an undercount of Palestinian death.
I’ve heard counts well over 100,000.
Keep in mind that 67,000 of those deaths are women and children.
If that is their contribution to the world, Israel deserves no allies. Disarm them. Alienate them. Embargo them. Let them know what it’s like to go at it alone.
For similar series, I recommend Burnout and Flatout. See my comment in this thread for elaboration.
Career wise I think Burnout : Paradise City is the most fun of the games I mentioned because you have to go around the city finding hidden jumps, hunting cars roaming the city (when you catch them (by crashing them, of course) you get to drive them), and beating time trials that create unique opportunities to fly through the air and blast through traffic, ideally crashing your opponents into them… anyway, I love the genre, hope you find your game!
I adore this game series. If you are like me and would like another game in this genre, try “Flatout Ultimate Carnage Collectors Edition”, personally I find the crashing (as well as the racing) in FUCCE to be more satisfying than Wreckfest but both games are a must have for fans of the genre.
For the record many of the Flatout games are great. And for a more open world style game (you still can’t get out of your car) try Burnout : Paradise City, amazing soundtrack too.
Good idea, thank you for the tips on how to disable it. Nothing more annoying than someone offhandedly mentioning something I should do and providing no details or elaboration.
Okay, maybe that was harsh, but really, not even an app name or… literally anything?
As long as the jackass doesn’t sell, they’re solid.
I had a roommate who invested, when his stuff went down more than 5% he’d sell it, “Don’t wanna be too risky,” he’d say, unaware that he was breaking the cardinal rule of investing…
Then, “Omg it’s up again, I better buy high before it goes higher!” then repeat pattern A again.
Moral of the story, if you actually believe in a stock, unrealized losses are not something to react to. Or do, and become a warning tale told to others, ha. Them -5% hits add up QUICK.
Tbh after being rejected for card the first day or two in Yokohama, I just stopped asking and assumed cash. So tbh it sounds like I could have used a card more, but I enjoyed handling the cool-looking money so it was a win-win 😁
2023, Yokohama, Tokyo, Kyoto, Hiroshima, Osaka, Yokosuka then back to Yokohama. In three weeks I saw one toilet with no bidet. And all of the bidets were nicer than my $300 one at home… was awesome.
Sorry for the change in topic to bidet. Every week or so I’d withdraw like $300-$500 in yen and just survive off that til I was below $100 then I’d hit an atm again. Money went far because of a favorable exchange rate… and alcohol and food are extremely cheap in Japan even without those factors.
In Hiroshima, we went into a bar with 8 seats (common for bars and restaurants to only be able to host 1-2 groups, it was neat), anyway four of us drank 4-6 drinks, beers, mixed drinks, etc… I swear the barman must have given us a deal, when the check came we asked them to double check it because we thought it was wrong… about $50 for ~20-25 drinks. Insane. That was the case in most every city but Hiroshima was the cheapest bar tab I ever saw relative to the amt we consumed.
For the record, the Japanese drink like the Irish stereotype, they go HARD.
Yep I was gonna say… and Japan. 95% of places I went were cash only, I think I only used my debit card once during a trip of weeks.
However if you put it on the outside of the bucket nothing changes at all and this comment is a pointless thief of your time and attention. Sorry.
We’ve all done it, I’m sorry if my joke wasn’t apparent as well. Text is dumb.
(Any person hesitant to work with the police)
The internet “She was clearly insane.”
Every time someone says she’s acting weird I just can’t help but wonder if they live in a place with zero black people. Everything about her behavior made sense. It’s late at night, she’s disoriented, she was recovering from surgery and likely on medication, she lives in a world where people who look like her are executed daily.
A person 15 inches taller than her and 3x her weight is being a massive cunt, interrogating her about her home and car and showing no interest in making her feel safe… Hmmm, why did she hesitate? sHe MUsT bE cRazY.
Next time you are incapacitated, sick, injured, imagine the police coming by. “This man is clearly on drugs in their own house, better interrogate them.” Oh, a commercial is coming on, better mute it so I can hear the… “Gun gun gun!!”, …“What?” you think to yourself, “Who has a gun?” Suddenly you can’t hear and your chest is wet, an officer is standing over you, you’ve been shot, “I was just trying to…” You’re dead. Shouldn’t have been born black.
IF YOU CAN’T BE OUT OF IT IN YOUR OWN FUCKING HOUSE WHERE CAN YOU? OH NO THEY DIDN’T BEHAVE PERFECTLY IN LINE WITH SOCIAL BEHAVIOR IN THEIR OWN HOME LATE ATE NIGHT WHEN EVERYONE IS TIRED, GUESS THEY NEEDED TO DIE.
May Sean Grayson’s asshole rot from the inside out as he lies on a cold prison bed thinking of the children he’ll never raise and his former fiancee fucking someone else while he’s in the ground. Better yet, I hope he beats cancer and lives to old age in a cement box where he watches his children grow up through paneled glass.
May he replay her last, “I’m sorry” before he put a bullet through her face for the rest of his miserable existence and thinking of the life he could have had if he wasn’t a piece of human trash.
True, and it upsets me because we can’t even get a baseline agreement from the masses to correct systemic inequality.
…yet, simultaneously we’re investing academic effort into correcting symptoms spawned by the problem (that many believe doesn’t exist).
To put this another way. Imagine you’re a car mechanic, someone brings you a 1980s vehicle, you diagnose that it is low on oil, and in response the customer says, “Oil isn’t real.” That’s an impasse, conversation not found, user too dumb to continue.
I suppose to wrap up my whole message in one closing statement : people who deny systematic inequality are braindead and for whatever reason, they were on my mind while reading this article.
I’ll be curious what they find out about removing these biases, how do we even define a racist-less model? We have nothing to compare it to… another tangent, nope, I’m done. Zz.
