- Comment on Most time travelers probably have investments in Apple and Micosoft 2 days ago:
Because it’s not illegal?
- Comment on agi graph slop, wtf does goverment collapse have to do with ai? 2 weeks ago:
How would this be any different from more people existing in the world? These AGIs still need to eat (err, consume electricity). Or are you assuming they’ll be superior intelligences and thus disruptive?
- Comment on do you think freewill truly exists? 2 weeks ago:
I know that free will doesn’t exist and I wouldn’t choose to have it any other way
- Comment on No looky for you! 2 weeks ago:
I’m not an engineer, I don’t know how it works. I can touch the transparent window without getting burned, so it appears the window is insulated.
Maybe it works like this? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulated_glazing

I hate when the dishwasher says it’s low on cyan gnomes, but I can see them right there
- Comment on No looky for you! 2 weeks ago:
My oven is super insulated, yet it still has a window
- Comment on IT’S THE FEDS! 2 weeks ago:
It still blows my mind that a plant is illegal. One with medicinal uses, no less. What will they think of next? Banning sunshine?

Also, her pants wouldn’t fade into nothingness but on second thought I think the artist did the right thing…
- Comment on My password is not accepted because it is too long 4 weeks ago:
I love when there are so many rules that my first few randomly-generated passwords are rejected.
- Comment on “This script is fantastic. Let’s get Julia Roberts to play Harriet Tubman.” 4 weeks ago:
Have you considered that
(a) documentaries do not need actors, and
(b) if they did, the last black man earth could star as himself?
- Comment on People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies 1 month ago:
I’m no AI proponent, but I’ll only believe that LLMs are causing this psychosis when I see a randomized controlled trial. Until then, it seems far more plausible that people experiencing delusions gravitate towards LLMs.
- Comment on Math is amazing! 1 month ago:
- Take your age
- Multiply by e^iπ^
- Add your age
- Divide by 10
- Take a card, any card
- Add the number of years you’ve been alive
- Hand me the card
- Is this your card?
- Comment on Feces is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. 1 month ago:
Man Bun™ was created when a regular rabbit ate a radioactive turd. Now he can anthropomorphize at will, leap tall buildings in a single sproing, be super jacked, and destroy his enemies with Mach-5 poops.
- Comment on Teachers warn AI is impacting students' critical thinking 2 months ago:
It’s illuminating to ask an LLM a question, and then say it was wrong. In my experience they will do a 180 every time.
- Comment on Studios are making money off of fake AI trailers on YouTube 2 months ago:
Not a lawyer, but I thought trademarks are distinct from copyright. Even if copyright went poof, it’s still possible to violate a trademark.
- Comment on Having a baby? Use this one weird trick! 3 months ago:
Is that true? Sounds kind of discriminatory.
- Comment on The science speaks for itself 3 months ago:
FWIW, I would never ask someone about an injury during a job interview. I’m just a stranger on the internet, though, so who knows.
- Comment on Understimulated 3 months ago:
The Orville was actually pretty good. This may be heresy, but it felt more like Star Trek to me than some of the nu-Trek shows coming out. And for the record I can’t stand Family Guy.
- Comment on PSN Is Still Down After 14 Hours And No One Knows Why 4 months ago:
Free your mind! There is another way. Video game servers should be open-source, and the games should permit you to choose a custom server. This way, games can survive the bankruptcy of their creators’ companies.
- Comment on spidey senses 4 months ago:
Well you see, that’s the hilarious part. You won’t have those spiders anymore, the astronaut will. Floating in his tin can. Far above the moon. Planet earth is blue and there’s nothing he can do.

False. Attack their groin. The groin is the weakest part of the body.

What an unmissable sign-off line
- Comment on We overpaid you and need you to pay back $.23 5 months ago:
Once upon a time, my landlord’s management company tried to shake me down for an additional day of rent. I pointed out that my rental agreement stated I would pay exactly $x every month, so they can pound sand. They, too, decided to “let it slide.” How magnanimous.
I swear they must have created a new spreadsheet with an off-by-one error somewhere and mailed out hundreds of bills instead of double checking.

I shudder to write this, but it’s more like a self-replicating knife dildo. Or a sawzall.
- Comment on master manipulators 5 months ago:
Nah, I assume it’s more like some unconscious dude shows up at your house with a weirdly sharp penis, he impregnates the house, and then the house explodes and a bunch of little dudes spill out.
- Comment on Improve your Wi-Fi with this one trick 5 months ago:
With less matter for the photons to interact with, I assume the WiFi’s SNR would be improved. If fewer data frames need to be retransmitted at the link layer (WiFi), I figure the apparent bitrate at the IP level might actually be improved!
Actually, I would not be shocked if WiFi itself adapts to conditions, e.g. by sending less data per frame with more error correction bits when SNR is already low.
(Not a networking expert, I am just bullshitting.)

I mean if you need two or three, that’s still way better than grabbing 20.
- Comment on Rust 6 months ago:
In practice, I tend to agree. It’s easier to avoid shooting yourself in the foot with C++, but it’s still just waiting for you to screw up.
I’m mainly getting at Undefined Behavior (UB), which both C and C++ have plenty of. This article from Raymond Chen has some excellent concrete examples: devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20140627-00/?p…
- Comment on Rust 6 months ago:
The C++ side gives you what you need to create your own seat belt: spools of razor wire and clippers to remove the sharp edges (but no gloves). If you cut yourself, it’s your own damn fault. Real developers have discipline.
