And I was talking about the so-called legality of the situation. So, pretty clearly not referring to the headline…

You seem to be under some misconception regarding why actually wires our laws. Hint: they’re called lobbyists to get people to ignore the rampant bribery.

Umm, okay.
You’re advice was still terrible. And now you’re justifying it by making unkind and equally unfounded assumptions about the OP?
Whatever, dude.
- Comment on What is the best approach to port an iOS app to Android? 2 weeks ago:
This is an absolutely terrible idea first of all debugging code that you’re completely unfamiliar with is not easier than writing your own. The code you end up with is also likely to end up being very insecure with vulnerabilities exposing both you and your users.
When people actually crunch the numbers, vibe coding does not save time. So there is nothing to offset the massive drawbacks to this approach.
- Comment on How bad is it really to listen to music with headphones? My mother told me if I keep doing that I'd go deaf... Is that fearmongering? 2 weeks ago:
Oh for sure! My theory is because of that, she’ll go overboard immediately on any little thing she doesn’t feel in control of, more or less.

Your reply made me wonder: perhaps this is about more than the headphones? I’m not saying this justified her statement, but perhaps his mother feels like she isn’t being heard?

No kidding, right? Besides, we’ve all encountered games (or movies/shows) that basically sucked cause the developers were roped into something they just weren’t passionate about.

The word fraud is almost always used in a legal context, but technically it’s just the noun describing the act, while the word defraud is the verb designating the act of committing fraud.
But, I like your explanation, cause it’s stone and concise!
- Comment on Anon buys a car 2 months ago:
Legally, no. Which of course is the most common way to interpret that word.
Did he defraud the dealership? Absolutely! And frankly, good for him. The market for buying new cars in our country is one of the more exploitative systems that our society has managed to create, and that’s saying something.

- Comment on Borderlands 4 Launches To Mostly Negative Steam Reviews Over Performance Issues And Crashing 2 months ago:
I couldn’t resist the rakk build for my FL4K - and that particular action skill was crazy for triggering anointments. Only ever maxed his level though. Got close with Zane (he stays slow, but gets pretty overpowered by the end - but only if you avoided the bugged out non-functional skills). Next highest level I got was on Amara. I loved Moze’s power armor, by that’s the char my girlfriend mained, so I never got mine leveled very far.

The gameplay was much improved; the writing was…not good.
But I played the hell out of 3 anyway, so…

I find it doubtful they’ll successfully enforce this in court. But you never know.
The fact that this patent was issued is further proof our “intellectual property” laws and such are fucking broken to all hell, in any case.

If you’re upper-income, earning over $100,000, things are good … What we see with middle- and lower-income consumers, it’s actually a different story.
When had this ever not been true? What a windbag.

Do LLMs in fact evolve?
And is it ever in “spontaneous” fashion? In other words, in order to evolve, do they require human intervention?
