Why can't anyone ever provide a good-faith argument for not including 3.5mm port?
It's never anything like
>eliminating the jack gave us a little bit more room inside the phone for X, Y, and Z
>one less port on the phone allows us to make the phone more dust and water resistant / water proof
no
it's always gaslighting and disingenuous bullshit
>actually 3.5mm audio quality is bad on mobile!
>everyone uses bluetooth anyway!
next they'll say that phones never had 3.5mm ports to begin with and that we're crazy for thinking otherwise

listening on wired while charging at the same time

but that is a valid point
and Apple's own USB-C to 3.5 adapter is unironically one of the best DACs out there, as strange as it sounds

https://www.apple.com/shop/product/mw2q3am/a/usb-c-to-35-mm-headphone-jack-adapter

people also aren't having to charge their phones quite as often now due to larger battery capacity and more efficient software, so it's pretty easy to use your phone all day and only ever have to charge it while you sleep

What do you think of this book's perspective on AI and LLMs

>>
>>107825500
LLMs are unlikely to produce recursively self-improving AI. But if somebody does write it, obviously everybody dies. When an AI is smarter than all humans combined then humans can only hold it back. Killing all the humans is the default option to most reliably accomplish any goal that doesn't explicitly preserve them. But a simple goal will be easier to specify, so that will be tried first. Or in the unlikely event somebody aims for a safer one, they'll almost certainly fuck it up. The AI will find some loophole that we're too dumb to notice and do something functionally equivalent to killing everybody instead.
>>107826394
Because you evolved to care about family. AI does not evolve and doesn't have family either.

Yudkowski is a retard who doesn't know anything about how statistical decision theory works.

Both GPT-2 and current state of the art are not recursively self-improving. It's like putting fissile material together. Until you reach criticality it just gets a little bit warmer and all the reasonable empiricists feel confident they're safe. Obviously nuclear explosions are impossible because we never observed a small one in testing.

That's like saying "There is no evidence that there could be a backdoor in this OS; it was just developed by thousands of programmers" It may be true, it may not be true, but your "it's just" adds nothing to the discussion

I mean I do use AI, but its usefulness is extremely limited. I only need its help with something if it's particularly tricky, but if it's something tricky then the odds of it lying to me are extremely high (because its training data doesn't contain enough information about the topic, most likely). This severely limits its usefulness because I have to double-check everything, so at most it's kind of like a search engine that's slightly more useful.

Thanks, I'm white trust me bro. Here's the sample of what I'm doing, someone might burn me for this:
static procedure machine_move_variable_to_register (machine_segment * segment, natural destination, natural source) {
if (destination > 7) {
machine_append (segment, 0x44);
}
machine_append (segment, 0x8b);
machine_append (segment, 0x05 + 0x08 * (destination & 7));
machine_append_memory (segment, source, machine_relative_address (segment));
conditional_print (segment->debug == true, "move r%i [%i]", destination, source);
}

Removed some blank lines not to waste screen space in the thread...

This might be a naive question but if I have a Player whom has some Player.think() running on each frame and I use that to check the pad and do movement and whatnot, if I want some action to create a Bullet or something do I need to implement a message queue of sorts which is common between the scene and its entities?
For example (excuse the psuedo-code);
(Player)
think() {
if(pad.isDown("spacebar") && this.bulletCooldown <= 0)
this.messages.push(new SpawnBulletMessage(...));
}

(Scene)
think() {
foreach (entity in this.entities)
entity.think();

foreach (msg in this.messages)
this.performMessage(msg);

Saturates to 255, I believe. This program uses the same shaders and textures as the rendering engine by the way, it's not high fidelity.

Here's what happens when the opacity (alpha) of the brush is minimized too much. Seems like float imprecision ruins the color values. Many of my textures have a grainy pattern because of this, which I kind of like because it reminds me of traditional painting. Maybe someone can explain better what is happening here.

I wholly accept that I'm a worthless loser, even work hard at attempting to better my condition. But it means nothing when the world can easily swallow you, churn you out, and spit out what remains like the nothing that you are. The only truth is, that the world is a ruthless competitive arena of winners and losers, on every level. There is no "shadow" to integrate, there is no "psyche" to face to, you are either naturally selected (quite literally) by the mechanisms of fate, or you are going to perish like all the other creatures and processes of life that didn't make it to the next step of evolution before you. Mysticism of the new age, or Jungian, or Christian, or Judaic, or Eastern variety is comforting, because wouldn't it be so nice if there really was something mysterious to life that we just didn't know about? However on the most obvious and visible plane we know these mysticisms reduce to nothing more than fantasies.

It's not IBM/Lenovo, but I picked up a Tex Shinobi. The box is like a faux laptop when opened, coupled the with KB. it's all very reminiscent of ThinkPads. It's pure soul honestly. Some of the older laptops had features and functionality that I've never seen any other manufacturer dare to produce. The splitting and folding KB's moreover. That some of the coolest tech I've ever seen. Some older mainframe aesthetic gets me, but nothing compared to some of the ThinkPad soul.

Hopefully, I'm not breaking the generals rules with this. I just wanted to share. Most people don't get it. If any group does, it would be ThinkPad aficionados.

What’s the proper way to measure your dict in bytes?

When you size up a dict, do you care more about how wide it is (number of entries) or how deep it goes (what each one holds)?

And when you need to unload the payload, do you dump it straight into a buffer, stream it somewhere else, or flush it to disk?

no, you shouldn't pass arbitrary python objects around like a retard. the standard practice is to serialize them in some way. then you get a string or a buffer of specific length out, but at runtime the size of the object can vary hugely.
