technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•streaming was a mistake... - YouTubeEnglish9·12 days agoI usually watch YouTube through a laptop that blocks ads.
The YouTube ads are still annoying on my phone, etc., but not nearly as bad as Spotify (unusable).
technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•[Deleted]English7·30 days agoInfinite money. Capital wants infinite money for their imaginary property in perpetuity. Otherwise they’ll get their state to put you in a cage.
I also do maths with a computer. I trust it, it is usually deterministic.
I wouldn’t trust it. While math is usually deterministic, language models are not. They’re just spitting out whatever text is statistically likely. But that’s not how math works. These programs are usually terrible at basic math like multiplication.

Fear of missing out is kicking in.
Missing out on what?
For me the more important implication of Godel is that mathematics itself is countable and thus measure zero. No matter how much we do, the infinite majority of the unknown will still be left to explore… And that’s just the math, not even talking about the dependent science (also measure zero). The unprovable stuff is just a tiny subset of this.
Godel is a mathematical result, not a scientific result. It only applies to science to the extent that it depends on mathematics.
we live in a simulation but it is so perfect that we’ll never be able to find evidence of it
This is not a mathematical statement and thus it’s irrelevant to Godel’s theorem.
Newtons flaming laser sword says that if something can’t be proven, it isn’t worth thinking about.
This is pseudo-science without mathematical or scientific basis.
Science as a body of models will never be able to prove/disprove every possible statement/hypothesis,
Yes, because science doesn’t “prove” anything. There is no “proof” in science. Just experiments, evidence, etc.
that does not mean it can’t prove/disprove every hypothesis/statement that actually matters.
Yes, it does mean that science can’t prove stuff because that’s not how science works.
It’s completely misleading to conflate mathematical proof with scientific evidence. Math/science education is truly terrible, especially in terms of epistemology. The system doesn’t actually want people to question or think.
Supposedly…
technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Using A.I. to DESTROY Minesweeper [16:38] | Code Bullet316·1 month agoSo 3 lines of code is enough “intelligence” for you? I can see how that definition might have been popular among grifters in like the 1930s.
technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Using A.I. to DESTROY Minesweeper [16:38] | Code Bullet220·1 month agoThis is a garbage, subjective, pseudo-scientific definition.
And even if I entertain this nonsense, what kind of fool thinks that a minesweeper solver is “intelligent”?
technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Using A.I. to DESTROY Minesweeper [16:38] | Code Bullet422·1 month agoWhat’s the old sense? A program? “AI” didn’t exist in the old days and it doesn’t exist now.
The logic here is like 3 lines of code maybe? The ubiquity of “AI” grifting has made language meaningless.
technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Linux@lemmy.ml•Why Vim Is More than Just an Editor – Vim Language, Motions, and Modes Explained6·2 months agoLearning vim seems like a right of passage or something.
Yes, I think every developer is dropped into vim at some point unexpectedly (eg. git)… “What is this? How do I close it!!!”
technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Fediverse@lemmy.ml•FediDB Onboarding 🚀 : "Introducing Welcome, a new fediverse onboarding experience powered by FediDB."2·2 months agoKinda bad/traumatizing that this led me to a gore server in the top recommendations.
Damn I came here in defense of Cypress Hill but wrong thread…
technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Science Memes@mander.xyz•Do you know the answer?English112·2 months agoIf you’re choosing the answer, then there is 100% chance of being correct. Since none of these answers is 100%, the chance is 0%.
technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Science Memes@mander.xyz•Pictures of Animals Getting CT Scans Against their Will: A ThreadEnglish215·2 months agoOk, now do animals being tortured and murdered against their will. Much much bigger photoset.
technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•certificate_of_quality.png204·2 months agoWorthless certificate since there’s no such thing as “AI”. I think the worst thing that anti-“AI” people can do is buy into these grifter tropes.
Also, I’m personally good with stackexchange/etc, but I’m not mad at people who want to get info from a chatbot as long as they use it well.
Holy stockholm syndrome. Nazi and transphobe have lost their meaning because we lives in a transphobic nazi society.
The whiteness of these people shows through in weird ways.
He is a great influence to a lot of people
lmao
We live in a fascist society. People will defend white supremacy by default.
And Brave at the top lmao.
This dude poopoopie has always been garbage.
