Getting ready for the elections?

I guess one difference is now you can ask an LLM, trained on an open core product, to generate a license-free version of it.

I am not sure if it kills open source, but it probably kills open core. You can just take a project like GitLab and ask an LLM, conveniently trained on the GitLab enterprise edition source code, to generate you a fresh copy of whatever features of EE you care about, but with the license laundered.

It works for coding or system architecture and things like that, as well. For you, when you start thinking, a narrative voice appears? Is it debating yourself?

I tend to think in images without an internal dialog running. If I think about an upcoming trip I will imagine a series of images related to the trip, possible places to go, or just generally the place. After a bit a potential conclusion appears fully formed in my mind. If I think about a work problem, I might imagine the document, a coworkers face, or something like that while ruminating on it. Basically it feels like the subconscious is handling the details and the conscious self overall directs it.

Occasionally there is some snippet of a sentence I imagine, but it’s almost always cut off prior to finishing the sentence. If I imagine writing something, though, I’ll speak it to myself in my head.

Funnily enough, I’m a pretty weak mental visualiser too. I don’t have aphantasia but metal images are very transparent and dark.

Oh to have had a delete account/comments option.

I don't believe companies can reliably tell expert and non-expert developers apart, to sort them so efficiently to play out like you say.

After having previously said "AI has a very deep understanding of how this code works. Please challenge me on this."

"Beats me. AI decided to do so and I didn't question it."

It will work better if you try it with something you know really well.

Next try it on something rare you're an expert in, and be amazed at the low quality.

Not even in that only 3% of the US population is Native American, and the rest are therefore descended from or are themselves immigrants?

It’s not an argument, it’s a value.

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

They need to show usage going up and to the right or the house of cards falls apart. So now you’re forced to use it.

What do you mean? If I really own something, it's my call.

Apart from that it could be taken to mean "little sperm or egg cell".

As best I can tell you can’t even properly monetise this or get VC funding. Seems like a waste of effort.

Where? I watched his videos and I never saw him say anything like what you’ve written.

These are things you know? Or this is what you imagine might have happened and what he might have been thinking? For me it makes quite a big difference on how seriously to take you, if you actually know him or not (not in a parasocial way).

I saw a video with people sort of yelling at each other and fast cuts and bright colors, which looked like brainrot videos. Was that the intended one?

I guess, I’m not particularly a fan of JAQing off regardless of if I have a distaste for the person in question.

It’s internet drama, surely counter (and counter-counter)-mobs are already forming. The fans do this regardless of the wishes of the influencer.

We don’t even know yet how he died, isn’t it a bit early to pin it on someone?

I tried watching, it’s something to do with brainrot content? I’m not really sure I get it. I’m not entirely sure I watched the intended video.

The video was just one example from the linked thread, which was why I linked to the thread not the video. I don't see the benefit of copying all that text here when it's already there, I'm sorry to have to say. You're certainly welcome to believe that there's a good excuse every time he's incomplete or wrong, although I personally don't. I think it's because it's first and foremost entertainment content.

You've misquoted by turning "Veritasium seems to be frequently wrong or at least incomplete" into "Veritasium seems to be frequently wrong" in order to lecture me that saying only that he's frequently wrong is overstating things, and that I should have said incomplete. Which I did - in the non-misquoted version. But of course, you don't need my participation to have debates with imaginary versions of people in your head so I'll leave you to it.

I'm not equating Richard Spencer with Nazis because of this. He's quite literally a white surpemacist and neo-nazi who wants to get rid of the Jews.

I don't think any free press is disruptive to world peace. Even if you get your wish and shut up any outlet you personally find dishonest you're not going to achieve world peace. At least not the kind I'd like to live in.

You're calling anyone who bothers to reply to you dumb and delusional. The plea for rational debate is a bit funny in this context.
