no. not people. just crypto-bros who want to sell you their latest AI-bullshit. -
depends completely on the specific conditions.
"immortality as long as i want (and no longer), combined with eternal youth and health" - yes.
everything else: no. -
@jestdotty "predictive power"?
so - your definition of consciousness is "pattern recognition"?
i'd argue that this is a subtype of intelligence, but not at all consciousness. -
@jestdotty
> it's actually not that hard to figure out
but how do you know your solution to the question is _correct_? after all, since the advent of mankind itself, people have been asking that question, and answering it, and there has not yet been any consensus on what the true answer is. -
glass panels, so the animals just smash into it and break their necks?
-
and now tell me how often you use NaN or +/-inf in real life?
and in how many cases you could, for all intents and purposes, just use NULL and float.min/float.max?
it is an oversight in the specification, i agree. but personally, i find it less significant (by far) than, for example, a lack of comments, and no trailing commas being allowed. or the fact that duplicate keys are allowed. -
@jestdotty i don't have any, though. your sad little "uno reverse" doesn't work here.
-
so what you're saying is you're too soft to take a cold shower?
-
plot twist: with all crypto-pros having gone bankrupt after the big blockchain bubble bust, ine BTC has now a buying power equivalent to half a grain of moldy rice.
IPv4 has long been phased out, and even the IPv6-addresses are beginning to become scarce because nowadays, every single irrelevant little thing "needs" to be "smart" - so we're at the point where even something like a cooking spoon has at least half a dozen independent IoT-capable sensors embedded. -
the question is moot.
because if such a mind-boggling scifi superweapon would exist, "they" would already use it to make you do whatever they want. for example by making you feel really, really good about the technology. or by making you feel really, really dead for not liking the technology. -
@jestdotty no, not at all, in any way. and i didn't write anything that could reasonably lead to that conclusion.
seriously, you need to get that brain damage checked by a professional, you're hallucinating like an LLM with the heat turned to max.
status is an emergent property of any society, based on the collective subjective perception of a person.
and still, the imitation is just a _result_ of that status, not the status itself. -
you shit so much because you are so full of shit.
also: yeah, obviosly. what comes in must go out. what part of this was the big surprise to you?
also: get a diaper, and a therapist. -
that's why every developer is taught to comment their code. and why a handful of _good_ developers sometimes actually do so.
-
at least it's just the infrastructure, and not huge parts of the code base, because you used abstraction everywhere you integrated with the cloud services, to achieve decoupling, right? .....right?
-
@sidthepajfuk i saw a guy with a shitty nonexistant avatar like yours, and he looked like something b2plane would excessively rant about. also: yeah, sure about you.
-
@jestdotty so, if it's imitation and nothing else, that'd kinda imply that every poor little serf in the middle ages would run around with a yellow-painted wooden crown, to try and imitate the king (slightly exaggerated).
not everything that symbolises status is being imitated, and not everybody is trying to imitate people of higher status.
if, as you claim, status WAS imitation, the previous statement would not be true. but status clearly is a CAUSE for imitation. a cause so obvious, even simpletons can see the connection, even without realising that the underlying causality does not dictate equality of the two concepts. -
@jestdotty the bike shed fallacy is a completely different thing.
-
* buy those: https://etsy.com/de/listing/...
* show them to people
* make a point of not handing over any coin -
hot take: what does that say about their decision to hire you?
-
wow. that is... impressive, in a way.
-
some do. not all.
also: that's your opinion. i mostly share it, but it's still just an opinion. -
is it a big enterprise?
enterprise structures are built resilient, so they can still somewhat function even if every single position is filled with the person most unqualified for that position. which, inevitably, will happen sooner or later.
the smaller and less enterprisy a company is, the higher the chance of it collapsing due to "peter principle"-saturation, the sooner it will make room for the next company, not yet filled with incompetence.
the bigger the company, the slower its death. -
@jestdotty you're confusing cause and effect. status is how people are _perceived_ in a (hierarchical) society. imitation is one result of that perception.
-
@int32 then tell the people they're producing shitty code.
-
of course not!
...it's an interior decoration style. -
@Tounai no such thing as frontend code quality, anyway ;)
-
go spam somewhere else. the edge of a cliff during an earthquake, for example.
-
well, if you call it "margin-20", then you're just stupid. that's like replacing the number 20 in programming with a `const num20 = 20`.
give it a _meaningful_ name. like "margin-medium".
inline-css is bad for two reasons: one: it forces you to use magic numbers, instead of giving you the option of not being stupid. and two: when you want to change the value, you need to change it in every location, instead of just the definition. -
no. go spam somewhere else. the inside of a garbage press, for example.
-
then don't use it and be done with it.
