bioemerl,

Nah. Whoever you are you're probably average. Be honest and accept it. This superficial crap sets the standard that being ugly is so bad you should deny reality.

bioemerl,

It’s not factual reality, it’s people’s opinions

This is a massive cop out. You can reduce everything to blithe meaningless with this sort of thinking. Like, you can literally say that human shit tastes great.

If you've got no chin and a hunchback, you're going to have to go looking for the exceptions before you find anyone who likes the look. If you run around convincing yourself you're a 10 out of 10 you're just lying to yourself.

Everybody’s talking about Mistral, an upstart French challenger to OpenAI (arstechnica.com)

On Monday, Mistral AI announced a new AI language model called Mixtral 8x7B, a "mixture of experts" (MoE) model with open weights that reportedly truly matches OpenAI's GPT-3.5 in performance—an achievement that has been claimed by others in the past but is being taken seriously by AI heavyweights such as OpenAI's Andrej...

bioemerl,

Mixtral GPTQ can run on a 3090

Mistral 7b can run on most modern gpus

bioemerl,

Be warned, prompt processing is slow

bioemerl,

He’s just doing what the IMF has proposed for years and telling everyone it’s a revolution.

Because after a decade of socialist assholes, it is.

bioemerl,

They call themselves socialist.

They promote socialism.

They were praised as being fine examples of socialism and progress when things were going well

Get out of the cope copter.

bioemerl,

N Korea doesn't have real elections.

Argentina did actually seize the means of the means of production, (oil fields).

This is yet another case of passing the buck on socialist unsustainability.

bioemerl,

If humans are just brains why are we smarter than dogs who also have brains?

bioemerl,

Well fuck you too pal, I thought it was a good analogy.

bioemerl,

Hello yes I don't actually know what you look like because my VR glasses are converting everyone into the living image of Danny DeVito

bioemerl,

They are already doing that shit, back in 2013 it was done with something called bubbling.

I remember being in high school and I remember people sharing nude images of each other on those old ass snap a picture cell phones. Or a couple of my cousins going on facebook and rating all the women 1 to 10.

And before people were doing it was computers they were doing it with their imagination.

Same new shit same old story, it's all going to be fine.

bioemerl,

They aren't, player counts have plummeted

bioemerl,

I'm quite happy to see Bethesda fail after their choice to release fallout 76 and microtransaction and abuse psychological tricks to separate people from their money.

Crash and burn baby.

bioemerl,

This sounds like highway robbery. If the government wants patent rights for things they funded, they should include those terms in the grants and not do it after the fact.

bioemerl,

I'm neither coping nor seething. This looks like a bad policy to me and I'm describing exactly why with very little emotional investment.

Biden knows this. Pay attention to the press release.

"Ordered to consider..." Means this is a PR move.

bioemerl,

In that case fuck the pharma companies, exercise the shit out of that contract.

bioemerl,

It's all fun and games until the user has bit rot or some stupid thing is offset by one or a row doesn't exist somewhere and you have to correct for it

bioemerl,

AMD makes a few Mi999 cards that support pytorch with ROCM and are subject to the export ban.

bioemerl,

You can't "I don't see labor as a commodity" your way out of scarcity. That's just hilariously absurd.

Literally head in the sand sort of thinking.

bioemerl,

Let's imagine I had 100 rocks. For some reason I have to move them in order to feed everyone.

If I have one person I can move one rock a day.

With two people I can move two rocks.

And so on and so forth.

There is a labor demand - the need to move rocks.

And a labor supply - the number of people you have available to move rocks.

You can't mind game your way out of that. Call it a commodity or not, you still need X people to do Y tasks and the discrepancy between the tasks and the people you have to do them is a measure and very real thing.

Because I did

Arrogance that knows no bounds.

bioemerl,

How crucial is it to move these rocks? What’s the deadline? How many rocks need to be moved? Are there safety procedures in check, and will safety equipment be provided?

Yes. Let's introduce OSHA standards into a theoretical example where moving rocks feeds people.

All the while spinning a billion bullshit nonsense side points.

Labor has a supply.

Labor has a demand.

To dismiss that is to dismiss reality. Yes. The nature of labor can change and some sorts of work can be abandoned when there is a shortage. No. That doesn't invalidate scarcity and your "degrowth is good and okay" seems tor to just be a hilarious and twisted rationalization of how when your ideals cause the economy (and more importantly the general will being of people in the nation) to collapse that it's actually a good thing.
