A rough estimate tells me that’s their equivalent of us fucking for 40 days straight.
- Comment on Is anyone else apprehensive to down voting even if you're being down voted? 3 days ago:
I’m indifferent, really. You can make the most benign post possible and someone will downvote you for it, so you’ll get used to it.
And just to prove my point, I downvoted your question for absolutely no reason. Idc how you vote in return, if at all.
Have a nice day ❤️
- Comment on I am someone who works out daily and sweats a lot. Just doing laundry doesn't seem to adequately clean the underarms of my shirts. What are some ways to clean these areas of my clothing better? 5 days ago:
Citric acid is dirt cheap and does wonders for some cleaning jobs. Many recommend vinegar for these things, but citric acid doesn’t leave a smell and works for a lot of the same things. I guess anything acidic would do.

- Comment on What's the difference between socialism and communism? Is there one? Or are the terms interchangeable? 6 days ago:
One is a socioeconomic philosophy, while the other is a political structure. One might involve the other, but that’s not necessarily always the case.
- Comment on How come all the crap like satellites that we put into space...it never hits a rocket or the ISS? 1 week ago:
Different orbits. For two things to collide in space, orbital height (altitude) has to intersect. And the orbital parameters of anything up there is tightly controlled/regulated.
Plus, the thing about space is just that: There’s an awful lot of it. Even if two objects’ orbits do intersect, the timing has to match as well. Two objects can be on the same orbit, but out of phase with each other.
And since this is three dimensional space over a globe, the higher you go, the more room there is.
- Comment on Has anyone ever actually had their vehicle tabs stolen? 1 week ago:
I guess it could be theoretically possible. I remember the ones here in Norway being a PITA to take off, so it was usually easiest to place the new one over the old one.

Uhm… what are “vehicle tabs” ?

- Comment on Is there any good thing for using AI for the middle class and poor? Instead of just the oligarchs ripping off the middle class and poor? 1 week ago:
Again with the assumptions. I do verify the results, as previously stated, and it’s on point most of the time.
Anyway, LLMs are tools like any other invented since sharp rocks, and you seem to be conflating useful applications of said tools for slopgen. Sometimes a fancy autocomplete might actually be what is best for one particular task, even if you’re opposed to its use. And yes, you obviously do gaf, as you keep trying to argue how I should or shouldn’t do things.
- Comment on Is there any good thing for using AI for the middle class and poor? Instead of just the oligarchs ripping off the middle class and poor? 1 week ago:
Wrong again. You seem to be the one making the assumptions here, as you keep ascribing methods to me.
But since you absolutely have to know, when the log file is megabytes in size, I don’t read it line by line, as I have better things to do with my time. But an LLM can help narrow down which line to look at more closely and parse away the noise.
- Comment on Is there any good thing for using AI for the middle class and poor? Instead of just the oligarchs ripping off the middle class and poor? 1 week ago:
Wrong on both accounts. As with any other source of information, its correctness needs to be validated.
- Comment on Is there any good thing for using AI for the middle class and poor? Instead of just the oligarchs ripping off the middle class and poor? 1 week ago:
I have two practical use cases where I haven’t found a better alternative that LLMs:
- I can paste a huge log file and have it summarize where it went wrong (and often how to fix it)
- It can give me a simple introduction to any topic and provide practical examples.

I’m forcing my kids to learn it. Both digital and analog clocks have use cases, but the truth is that analog clocks are simply faster to parse.

There was 9ne episode of Knowledge Fight where they hilighted one single prediction that was 100% accurate, but it was all in a sea of his usual BS that is way off.

Short answer: Nothing
Long answer: It is part of a command that deletes everything. The only thing missing is the argument specifying what to delete. Examples:
rm -rf * rm rf /some/directory
It’s somewhat (in)famous because it’ll do so without asking for confirmation. The only exception is
rm -rf /on a modern distro which will complain that you’re attempting to delete EVERYTHING on the system. In the olden days it’d just do it, but these days it tells you to add–no-preserve-rootas well if you really wish to do so. - Comment on I'm gonna ask the simplest complex question ever.

- Comment on How tf do people who work 8-5 M-F get any life done? 4 weeks ago:
I haven’t got a fucking clue. I always hated normal jobs, but I do enjoy having both food and shelter (how decadent of me, I know), so I did what I could to scrape by. And what I “could” usually translated to “could find”.
Then my proper career started in 2008, and it was an offshore rotation. Give weeks offshore in various corners of the world, followed by five weeks at home. It paid well, and I got to see the world.
Then came 2011: The company wasn’t doing too well, and I had contracted a family. I wanted to spend more time at home, and while I wasn’t completely prepared to change careers just yet, I was mentally toying with the idea.
In spring 2012 I decided it was time to find a “normal” job, so I could spend more time with my family. M through F, 0800-1600, mostly at a technical workshop, sometimes at clients’ places, and once in a blue moon at an office.
It. Was. Miserable. But having a normal job was what I was supposed to do, right? Well, the money wasn’t bad per se, but it was nowhere near what I used to earn. Plus, when I got home from work I was so exhausted I rarely had energy left over. The family life I was aiming for was severely limited by my stamina.
In 2019 I concluded that nor.al jobs are for normal people, so I reached out to some old colleagues of mine, and suddenly I found myself in a job interview. Got back offshore, and never regretted my change of heart.
It’s worth noting that I don’t really go offshore any.ore, as I have since ended up in a supporting role, where 90% of my job is done via email or VPN, from home, saving up energy for when my kids (now plural) get home.

If I’d seen your username, given no context, you would’ve been vaguely familiar.
But since I track votes I give to users, I can add that you’re at +35, so you must’ve done something right.
- Comment on In Theory if celebs remember all their training for different films. Then would it be to say if you picked a fight with Keanu could he wipe the floor with you since he is both Neo and John Wick? 4 weeks ago:
Keanu could probably kick my ass without drawing on the training from those two characters. But if I was maybe 10 years younger I might stand a chance.
If he added John Wick, no. I would need to be even younger than that, and even then my chances would be slim at best.
And if he were to add Neo, well, that depends whether he truly believes, or not.

- Comment on I'm 600 elo on chess dot com, what should I do to improve now? 5 weeks ago:
600-700 is around when the basic beginner traps stop working. Fried liver attack, etc.
Reading theory is helpful, but I’d say that’s more important at 1000+ ELO. For now, I’d say learning the basics of evaluating any position (king safety, long diagonals, weak squares, etc). Also, knowing many openers is good and all, but I suggest picking one and get really good at that. “I fear not the man who has practiced a million openers once” -Bruce Dickinson, or something.
My personal choice for openers are Kings Indian attack (as white) or Pirc Defense (as black). These are very similar, so if you know those two well, it doesn’t really matter what color you start as - they tend to end up with similar mid-games.
Also, around 700 it becomes important to spot which tactics are available to you in various positions. The puzzles at chess.com are really helpful for learning this.
As for the lichess argument, yes, it’s good. But I find that the analysis engine on chess.com is slightly better. And on that note, if you have a subscription, analyze your games afterwards, as it helps you understand what went wrong or right (yes, don’t just analyze your victories). Also, keep in mind that chess.com and lichess have different ways of calculating ELOs.
