@naught101
maybe i should explain a bit more what i meant. On the one hand there will be our capacity of distinguishing between what is and what is not the same. On the other hand there will be what is truly distinguishable, weather we can see it or not (or whether any sophisticated system/being could differentiate it or not). Still, a sentient being will ultimately have some responses that will be different from a non sentient being … in my opinion. - Comment on When "AI" content becomes indistinguishable from human-made content, is there, philosophically speaking, any meaningful differences between the two? 2 weeks ago:
the part of emotion’s phenomenas that we can’t feel (not a signal or signals) is of lesser interest to me.

i agree with your statement and because of this trap i chose not to really answer op’s question

there is nothing more or nothing magical in carbon atoms that makes them superior when it comes to relaying/processing/genarating signals.

“When”, but that could be 1,000 years from now or maybe only 10 … but then, when this truly happens, those system will have become sentient.
So, at that point, when that happens, then yes, there truly won’t be any difference. - Comment on Remember to check your kids candy 4 weeks ago:
if anyone, like I did, have the slightest doubt that this is not a prank, or a joke, consider we are here in “shitposting” community and this glowing thing looks like a plastic “glow stick” with liquid inside. This is quite different from the metallic container that would contain radioactive solid metallic Cobalt inside (not translucent and not liquid).

" … the tap was fitted with an aerator …"
With this i can see now how they get aerosol from tap water.
- Comment on Call Before You Dig 4 months ago:
Maybe i missed your point if you meant that aerosolization will occur readily simply when opening a faucet … ?
Otherwise - - documentation :
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LegionellaTemperature affects the survival of Legionella as follows : [3]
- Above 70 °C (158 °F) – Legionella dies almost instantly
- At 60 °C (140 °F) – 90% die in 2 minutes (Decimal reduction time (D) = 2 minutes)
i would not expect much aerosolization if heated slowly … and you did not provide any documentation.
- Comment on Call Before You Dig 4 months ago:
i don’t believe your statement but I would if you gave some references. Can you link some documents that explain why boiling doesn’t kill those bacteria ? … or should not be used to sterilize such water ? …any document about survival or whatever I don’t know.

in the context : this guy wants to go to a date and he needs water now. So, for a few hours the water is the in the tank is safe // if this guy has some brain - - and he looks like a very smart guy - - he will know how to handle this water. Otherwise, for stupid people : yes, your advice is good.
For myself, i know how to sterilize water - - i don’t know about you … if you are in an emergency … in an earthquake situation … in a desperate situation … you may choose to do something special in such situations … if you think you have some survival skills.

Just boil the water before using it. Consider it under boiling advisory.

cut the electric breaker to your hot water tank so you don’t burst and eating element if there is lower water level inside the tank.
Now you can use this tank as a water supply. You take water from the bottom tap of the water tank. Let the air come inside the tank by opening another top level hot water faucet anywhere inside the home. Be careful to (carefully) refill the water tank once municipal supply goes back on.

translation from the original :
On 2025 May 14, at 12:12 Beijing time, Guoxing Aerospace successfully launched 12 satellites for the Space Computing Constellation 021 mission using the Long March 2D carrier rocket at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. The satellites entered their predetermined orbit, marking the successful launch of the world’s first space computing constellation.The successful completion of the initial constellation launch mission will usher in a new era of “space computing” globally.

Arguably about 100 fold improvement over "diffusion models” like OpenAl’s SORA and Google’s VEO 2.
Such major improvements are to be expected in my opinion in the future of artificial intelligence. - Comment on What Will Remain for People to Do? The future of labor in a world with increasingly productive AI. 7 months ago:

- Comment on The Llama 4 herd: The beginning of a new era of natively multimodal AI innovation. 7 months ago:
When students progress in school, they are no longer interested in simple problems and need harder problems as challenges to stay motivated. They got something similar in the work :
quote :
To address this, we removed more than 50% of our data tagged as easy by using Llama models as a judge and did lightweight SFT on the remaining harder set. In the subsequent multimodal online RL stage, by carefully selecting harder prompts, we were able to achieve a step change in performance.
Eventually, we will ask a question one of those systems and they will consider us with disdain.
Also, for what i read in their work, elaborating such systems becomes more and more convoluted. Eventually, people working on these things, will lose the trail of what they did before. So, they will forget why they came to do something one specific way.
- Comment on OpenAI to build open AI model amid competition from Meta and DeepSeek 7 months ago:
OpenAI, which until now has been a fierce defender of closed, proprietary models (…)
it’s like when Google said : “don’t be evil” but what they meant was : “don’t you be fucking evil, leave that to us”
(…) competition in the open-source space from Chinese rival DeepSeek and
Meta**Alibaba.
