I do not understand this joke. Is it about “time is relative”?

Don’t judge other people by yourself.

You misspelled Unix.

That was never stated as official policy. Nor the actions aligned with it. You confuse Israel with Hamas, who both stated and acted upon it.

I kind of understand them, because if you listen Fox News, you will learn about Soviet style prosecution, about how judge manipulated court. “Expert” after “expert” say that it is political hunting, etc. It is easy to manipulate those with single source of news and views.

I understand exception of medical devices where manufacturers carry huge responsibility if something goes wrong. But consoles???

This is horrible article. The only number given related to LLM is 700,000 liters of water used, which is honestly minuscule in impact on environment. And then there are speculations of “what if water used in aria where there is no water”. It is on the level of “if cats had wings, why don’t they fly”.

Everything we do in modern would consumes energy. Air conditioners, public transport, watching TV, getting food, making elections… exactly the same article (without numbers and with lots of hand waving) could have written. “What if we start having elections in Sahara? Think about all the scorpions we disturb!”

The relative costs of computers, consoles and games themselves is significantly lower today than in the eighties.

I think 20% is too generous.

The outside is a space too.

That’s false. Only half are women and children wiki. Your 10:1 ratio is taken out of your behind, but even that ratio is typical urban warfare ratio. Just Google.

Yes, and with 14,000 militant killed, the civilian number is 35K - 14K = 21K. Civilian to militant casualties is 21:14, or smaller than 2:1. That’s all.

For total number of casualties I take Hamas number. For militant casualties, Hamas does not give any number, so, I have to use Israeli number as the most reliable. By the way, Israeli number for civilian casualties is also not so far from Hamas.

Honestly, shit happens during the war. Yes, the mistakes should be investigated, guilty punished etc., but it is a big picture which is important, not a few incidents that are easy to use for propaganda and internet points.

In my mind there are 3 questions that needs to be answered

1. is war justified?
2. what is civilian to military kill ratio (basically to see if civilians are killed without care)
3. what are the goals of the war, what are post war plans

For the first question, I do not know how anyone with straight face can say that the war is not justified when a neighbor attacks you and purposely and barbarously kills 1300 people and takes about 200 hostages.

For the second quested, it is urban warfare, and if anyone cares to check, the ratio of 10 to 1 (civilian to military) is quite typical. In this war, Israel achieves ratio of better than 2 to 1, which says to me that IDF is really careful not to kill civilians unnecessarily.

It is the question (3) where I have problem with right now. Mostly because it is right wing government in Israel and there is no clear out of war path suggested after Hamas is destroyed. But here we can wait and see. Israel is a democracy and I hope her people will make right decision.

Well what about US born only citizens? What is it about white Canadians, but US naturalized?

But then, how would they make all the money?

Or maybe he exited the tournament because he was about to die? Which one the cause, which one the effect? We can only see the correlation.

Counter arguments

1. technology develops exponentially, while humans are … static
2. even now single line of code LLM generates faster and cheaper
3. the replacement is not programmer->LLM but programmer -> (programmer +LLM). LLM is just a tool.

That’s exactly how a black hole behaves.

I am convinced now.
