It’s in development btw

Considering that it sank like 2000 years ago, would there be any detectable molecular traces left to figure out amphoras’ contents? Or would everything be destroyed by now?

Locking social norms at some predetermined stage is a great way to curb all progress. Like, slavery was a social norm at some point.

Texas charges prisoners for water? What the fuck, how is this even remotely legal?

I saw this article posted in another thread and it seems to explain a lot. Not sure how close it is to reality, but it looks like nostalgia is at least a partial reason for this change.

Yep. Fucking nostalgia.

You’re probably joking, but I’ll comment anyway. It won’t affect LLMs at all. ChatGPT just answers the question and discusses the paradox. LLM’s function is basically just to construct sentences, so there’s nothing really that can potentially infinitely loop. It doesn’t “think” about paradoxes.

So I’ve just tried it with chatGPT, and it replied normally. I asked it why it wasn’t bothered by Cyrillic letters, and it answered this:

I am designed to understand and generate text in multiple languages, including those that use the Cyrillic alphabet like Russian, Bulgarian, and others. So, Cyrillic letters don’t bother me. You can continue the conversation in either English or a language that uses the Cyrillic alphabet if you prefer.

So it really depends on the model, I guess. Don’t rely too much on this advice.

I know, right? It’s so weird. In every single instance of some bullshit happening it’s easy to brush it off as incompetence or an attempt at profit maximization, but overall it feels a lot like some kind of targeted disassembly of whatever made the internet great and facilitated open discussions.

Poor Apple users kinda don’t have to deal with this shit

Here, I assembled a comparison image. They’re pretty similar in normal light, but moissanite shines like a motherfucker :)

As someone who works in jewelry design, moissanite is far superior to diamond anyway.

• Very similar hardness (9.25+ vs 10), but lower value makes moissanite a bit less brittle, less prone to chipping and more durable overall
• Higher refractive index (2.65–2.69 vs 2.42), which gives moissanite more brilliance and sparkle compared to diamonds
• Lower Abbe number. It means that moissanite tends to disperse light into colors more than diamond, giving moissanite more fiery or rainbow colors
• Usually lab-produced, so much more ethical in general, and much higher clarity on average
• It’s waaay cheaper

So for anyone going for a diamond ring, I suggest trying moissanite instead. The only thing that diamond has going for it in this comparison is just decades-long PR. It’s not even a fun gem chemistry-wise, it’s just carbon. Moissanite, on the other hand, is SiC :)

I don’t see why it’s dystopian. Because some functionality is locked behind an account? That’s not really dystopian, more like petty-capitalistic.

Why do they do it?

Thanks! Also, here’s one if you’d like something similar to your current one for your community.

Sure. Also, subscribed :)
