I imagine if this ever becomes a problem, they can just set th and the thorn to the same token in the LLM and it will then make no difference at all which is which.

If this ever becomes a problem in training the solution is extremely easy.

You not working?

AWS down

Oh ok, don’t worry

Carp for best results, may be substituted with salmon or tuna but do not expect the same quality.

I am convinced editors got the joke and now shuffle reviewers around just so that the worst one is reviewer 2.

Anything that involves statistical mechanics is just black magic. There should be a Nobel prize just for people who are able to wrap their mind around it.

Me: oh it’s a reaction scheme, so they start with this and end up with this. I’ll assume everything in the middle is correct and they get what I asked them.

Also you harvest them every two weeks. Want to sell them already? Just stick them under a plastic carp for a couple of days and they’ll be ripe and yellow.

The bad part is loading trucks of bananas is hard work, those things are heavy.

People are working on that already. Did not work until now as far as I know.

This is a problem that has been known for a while.

Yes, the keyring is a pain, also because I like to manually check all the keys. But then what often happens is that lots of configuration options have changed and you have to go through bunch of software to find out which exact package is now misconfigured and makes your system not work as it should.

Unless it’s for salad, I just run them under some water. Same for potatoes.

Time is too short for peeling vegetables.

Fair enough, prioritise people who actually work and do things. They deserve housing before anyone else.

Then also people who do not work and make money off of others people’s work may have a house.

Would not advise Debian to a new user. Old packages and difficulties installing non free software may frustrate people.

I did use Debian as my daily driver and I have it in a few servers, it is a very good system. But to the common user stability is not the priority which should prevail over everything else.

Rented a flat from a family for 3 years. The flat had not been renewed in over 60 years, but I was alright with that. The flat had several problems, they never wanted to fix.

One day the electrical system starts going out over and over again, fuses would burn every few days. I had to tell them that in case of fire they’d be responsible for everything I had in the house before they agreed they should fix the electric system.

Since they were going to fix the electric system, they decided to do a bit more work and change the floor and a few things more. They wanted to increase the rent 50% to account for these improvements; even though that is illegal I accepted, since they were in fact improving the flat.

I had to move out for two months while the works were going on. One week before the end of the works, the flat was really not done yet. I asked several times whether it would be ready, because I’d need to find and accomodation in the meanwhile. I asked for a discount of half a month so that I could cover expenses and because nobody knew when they would actually complete the works.

The day before I was supposed to get back into the flat, they decided that I was posing way too many conditions and kicked me out. They decided to keep the safety deposit because a plastic floor old over 60 years had started cracking. 8 months later, they still have some boxes of stuff which is mine but never have time to meet me to give it back to me.

Time has passed and I still have to go to a lawyer, because I the meanwhile I had a bunch of trouble to solve. I’m sure I can win a trial against them, but even if I do win the trial I’ll have gone through a bunch of trouble just to get my safety deposit back. I’ll be doing it just because they need to fuck off, but still…

Now, most people renting places were I live are exactly like this. It is not big corporations, it people who got one or maybe a few flats on rent.

Professors started writing books for the students to study. Will students get smarter or stop thinking?

Oh, that is great pricing then compared to what I’m seeing now. However, in here 4 years ago car prices were much lower, even during COVID.

I’ll explain a few things which may not be obvious. When I say lowest price available I mean you’re buying a car which is over 20 years old directly from the owner. The most likely reason the owner is selling it is that it needs some repairs, and he decided he does not want to bother and is getting a new one. Repairs will likely be 1,000€ upfront, you may be lucky and spend a little less; but that is unlikely.

Someone may consider that it may be worth spending a bit more in order to get a more reliable car with a longer life.

Car prices went up very much: my mother bought a car for 500€ 8 years ago and is now considering selling it for 3,000€.

I don’t know whether this is the same in the US, it may very well be that people just want new shiny cars. In here, I know many people who have been working for over 20 years who wish to change car but are now screwed because it is not feasible with their finances.

In my experience, used cars always need immediate repairs to get them running. That is what I’d expect from a car I’d pay 2,000€ now. I’d assume an immediate payment of another 2,000€ in repairs to get it running. Probably you can run it immediately, but with several problems which will quickly deteriorate its life span if you don’t do that.

It would be different if you were to buy a refurbished car, but those are more expensive.

The difference in price anyway accounts for the high difference in prices between my country and most parts of the US. I live in a cheap European country, the US is way more expensive. I do not know car prices in the US, but if price difference with other things I do know of stands, I would not be surprised for a 50%-100% increase in prices compared to the ones I know.

Even in Europe it is quite difficult to find a new car for less than 20,000€. If you need a car because you just found a job which is far and you need to ride to get there, taking a loan is your only option.

I guess you can buy a used car, but likely you can not apply to a loan for that and definitely the loan will not cover the necessary repairs to get it to a working state.

That’s the cheapest available used car in a cheap European country. I’m sure that gets to much higher prices in the US.

The .main point is that prices for used cars more than quadrupled in just a few years.

Somehow they believe this will increase their user base…

Textbooks on any subject are easily retrievable for free. You could previously go to a library, but the internet makes it much easier to retrieve that kind of information.
