Eight fingers with both hands vs four and a dedicated thumb for zero? The number of fingers isn’t the limiting factor anyway. Like I said, if you’re not typing exclusively numbers, the numrow is fine because it allows you to type numbers and letters without repositioning your hands.
- Comment on Programming socks? 1 day ago:
Num row is plenty efficient. It takes some practice but is probably more efficient for typing mixed strings of letters and numbers, which is more common than long strings of numbers. As for flying, I dunno, same way anyone flies. Throw yourself at the ground and miss.

You can use a paper filter after french press. I would personally just do a pourover at that point, but if you are unable to achieve a nice consistent medium-fine grind then you may get the best results with an immersion brew (James Hoffman’s french press technique) poured through a rinsed paper filter
- Comment on lightbulbs 1 week ago:
True, but I just mean that daylight has properties that not all LEDs do, which is why some LEDs may seem harsh even if they are the same color temperature as daylight. But a good LED with high CRI and no flicker is nice at various temps.
- Comment on lightbulbs 1 week ago:
Daylight is full-spectrum, not just cold. Flicker-free and high color rendering index. If you can get that in a bulb (bit more expensive than cheap LEDs) it’s quite nice indoors.
- Comment on It's totally normal for tools to say they're depressed, just tune it out 2 weeks ago:
I think it’s more likely that consciousness is special and LLMs aren’t conscious.
- Comment on It's totally normal for tools to say they're depressed, just tune it out 2 weeks ago:
If current LLMs are conscious then consciousness is a worthless and pathetic concept.

They don’t need to pardon him. Just put some more armed goons between him and whomever wants to serve justice. They’re already using military force against citizens.

This is supported by the patent documents for at least one type of milk jug, which I found thanks to Snopes:

- Comment on Indie Game Awards Disqualifies Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Due To Gen AI Usage 1 month ago:
A placeholder isn’t what they’re working on either. It’s a placeholder for something someone else is working on but hasn’t completed yet.
- Comment on Indie Game Awards Disqualifies Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Due To Gen AI Usage 1 month ago:
It was a placeholder texture that was always intended to be replaced by actual art made by a human. It was overlooked accidentally and promptly replaced. So no, it isn’t a very different thing. It was never supposed to be part of the game or even a significant part of its development.
- Comment on Indie Game Awards Disqualifies Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Due To Gen AI Usage 1 month ago:
A stance that is perfectly relatable in 2025, but not as much when Expedition 33 was in early development.
- Comment on Indie Game Awards Disqualifies Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Due To Gen AI Usage 1 month ago:
The only takeaway is that the Indie Game Awards’ rule is overly restrictive. Woops, one of your contracted artists used a GenAI model to generate a music playlist to set the mood while he was working on your game, you’re disqualified and the fact that you didn’t come forward with this information immediately makes you a liar. Obviously absurd. If they’re going to take a strong anti-AI stance, it should be more realistic. At some point, maybe even already, every single competitor should be disqualified but isn’t aware or forthcoming about it, so what’s the rule actually doing except rewarding dishonesty?
- Comment on Indie Game Awards Disqualifies Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Due To Gen AI Usage 1 month ago:
“the truth” being that a few generated placeholder textures were accidentally left in and promptly replaced? crazy

There are non-standard models of arithmetic. They follow the original first-order Peano axioms and any theorem about the naturals is true for them, but they have some wacky extra stuff in them like you mention.

- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 5 months ago:
If you mostly play Souls games, I have to lean towards E33 due to the real-time parry mechanic. Both games are amazing and you won’t regret playing either.
- Comment on number box o number box 5 months ago:
Which is really a roundabout way of saying a tensor is a multilinear relationship between arbitrary products of vectors and covectors. They’re inherently geometric objects that don’t depend on a choice of coordinate system. The box of numbers is just one way of looking at a tensor, like a matrix is to a linear transformation on a vector space

- Comment on Emma Watson banned from driving for speeding 6 months ago:
So I’m not advocating for speeding, and I think getting a ticket for going 38 in a 30 is reasonable enough, she should be more careful. But “the probability of death given a collision” is an astronomically low contributor to the risk to pedestrians compared to “the probability of a collision.” We all know getting hit by a car is extremely dangerous even at low speeds. The risk of hitting a pedestrian doesn’t go up much between 38mph and 30mph under normal conditions, so the risk to pedestrians doesn’t change much. It’s probably within typical margins considering the difference between drivers who may be older, have slower reaction times, have slept less that day, etc.
- Comment on Emma Watson banned from driving for speeding 6 months ago:
it’s not like you can accidentally go around 30% over the limit
When that 30% is 8mph, yes you can

In the context of differential forms, an integral expression isn’t complete without an integral symbol and a differential form to be integrated.
