This is true. They do not think, because they are next token predictors, not brains.
Having this in mind, you can still harness a few usable properties from them. Nothing like the kind of hype the techbros and VCs imagine, but a few moderately beneficial use-cases exist.

Yep, that’s leptin resistance for you. Obesity is really a hormonal condition, and this is why GLP-1 inhibitors are so effective - they actually treat the hormonal condition and allow the recipient to manage their food intake without having their body hormonally work against them.
A layman’s explanation of my best understanding of the subject:
Hunger is controlled by 2 hormones:
- Ghrelin, which causes hunger and is produced by the stomach
- Leptin, which suppresses hunger and is produced by fat cells
As fat cells accumulate, leptin levels also increase, but a person that has developed leptin resistance will not feel the appropriate amount of hunger suppression from the leptin, leading to chronic hunger unless large energy intake is sustained.

LLMs are fundamentally unsuitable for character counting on account of how they ‘see’ the world - as a sequence of tokens, which can split words in non-intuitive ways.
Regular programs already excel at counting characters in words, and LLMs can be used to generate such programs with ease.

Your brain is not rotten enough to comprehend the statement

To my best understanding:
Mog = outdo another person in aesthetics
Hence a mogbattle would be a battle of looks, in this case determined by popular vote facilitated through the Discord reaction system.

- Comment on Emma Watson banned from driving for speeding 3 weeks ago:
Speedometers are not allowed to display a lower speed than the vehicle is running at all under EU regulation - see eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=… § 5.3
Displaying a speed slightly higher than actual speed is common and an acceptable margin of safety, such that if you are driving at the speed that the speedometer shows, you are more or less guaranteed to not exceed the speed limit.
- Comment on Emma Watson banned from driving for speeding 3 weeks ago:
The amount you are allowed to drive over the speed limit is in fact 0mph (0 km/h for us Europeans).
Tolerance of violations of this is a sign of a deeply broken society

- Comment on Fart kontrol 5 weeks ago:
‘Fart’ does refer to speed occasionally, but the key here is that it’s always called ‘Hastighetskontroll’ in Swedish. Note the double ‘L’ in ‘kontroll’ and the compounding of ‘hastighet’ and ‘kontroll’.
- Comment on Fart kontrol 5 weeks ago:
This is either Norwegian or Danish.
It’s true that ‘fart’ means speed in Swedish, but in this context ‘hastighet’ would be used (~‘hastiness’).

- Comment on Anon likes trains 1 month ago:
Not to shit on your perfectly reasonable parade, but in Germany there is high speed rail through the whole . takes about 6 hours from top to bottom.
Maybe not a great example there, with that running something like 100 km/h average speed.
If you bump those numbers up to be competitive with actually high-performing HSR operators, that trip would take 2-3 hours, immediately killing any competitive edge that air travel would have on those segments - 2-3 hours will basically get you to the airport and through security, you’ll have arrived already if you were on a well-performing train by then.
HSR is the best alternative for any trip up to approximately 800 km, at which point air travel starts beating it out. This is for daytime travel only - trains could be competitive for far longer distances with overnight sleeper service. I’d not be against taking night HSRs going between any points in Europe basically.
Alas, this would require non-shit politicians, which definitely does not exist
