If we were living in the 1930s they’d be the same people complaining we’re being unfair to Hitler and we need to hear his perspective too.

Hell, he used the same political strategy as modern day fascist politicians: simply lying. “I’m gonna make everything better! How? Don’t worry about that, just trust me and also let me reassert Germany’s national pride!” I’m reminded of Trump’s ACA “plan” (that he doesn’t have one).

And we just let them say that, unchallenged! Maybe someone asks how they’ll do it, but viewers just hear a strong man telling a story of future prosperity and ignore any small details a journalist might counter with. In the name of “balance”, we let them spread their info hazards and pretend silly things like facts will let people come to the right conclusion.

I believe the old technique was gradient ascent starting with a random image and optimizing for the classifier’s dogginess score, but now we train image denoisers then give them pure noise and tell them it’s a noisy image of a dog. Basically, we lie to models to make them make stuff for us, and we’ve gotten better at what lying scheme we use.

How is that delusional? Blocking out stressors is perfectly reasonable. Yeah you miss out on some relevant news, but lower stress might be worth it.

And then the compiler updates to get better at spotting optimization opportunities and it blows up again

I’m at a loss

I already knew that party sucked, and our options in the election sucked. I’ve seen them move farther right to appeal to the mythical moderate rather than actually become something anyone would like to vote for. That does not change anything I said in the last reply.

My vote is not an endorsement, nor a signal that I trust them, it is merely one lever which I use tactically. Harris was the tactical vote.

I think you’re confusing “Vote Harris” with “Vote Harris and do nothing else”. Obviously voting for a slightly lesser genocider isn’t sufficient, but she seems more open to changing than Trump which is worth something.

The Democratic party can occasionally be strong-armed into doing something less horrible, the Republican party would probably do the bad thing harder to spite you. I prefer the more malleable candidates for achieving my goals. That being said, there’s no use yelling at people for not voting Harris, because what’s done is done, and there’s no lesson yelling will teach.

Well, I mostly solved the depression with estrogen, and coincidentally I’m seeing a therapist tomorrow for what I think to be CPTSD and some other symptoms I don’t know much about. I’m suddenly collecting an avalanche of diagnoses it would seem.

Even my 1 feels a bit cheated, since I’m assuming the intent of that question was someone in my family other than me has depression. I guess you can say it correctly predicted me having high risk, but it’s obvious from the kinds of questions asked that that’s mostly accidental, and that my struggles weren’t really considered.

Just did, didn’t cover anything relating to my issues. I scored a 1, and that’s only because “Was a household member depressed or mentally ill” fits me.

I’m glad I’ve never taken it before because I definitely would’ve interpreted it as a sign that I didn’t really experience anything bad and that I’m just so bad at everything I can’t function in even a normal environment. At least now I can stand up for myself and say that’s not true. Still sucks to feel unseen by a test whose name claims to be general.

I sometimes wonder how much my childhood shortened my lifespan. I think work wouldn’t top that stress I had.

Let’s say a goal is a description of properties of a world state you would like to achieve. A goal can then encompass many possible world states, where unconstrained variables can be anything.

So if you want A, that does not necessarily have bearing on B. So people might say that the ends (reaching A) don’t justify the means (causing B). However, I’d say they underspecified their goal. Usually, people’s goals are goal + all of ethics.

Well they’re no friends of mine. At least we can go where we want to and leave your friends behind.

Spyro-nolactone

Well the universe is 3+1 dimensional, and a Pringle is 2 dimensional, so yeah that would be bizarre.

As long as they’re lenient on syntax and spelling mistakes the writing isn’t so bad, the worst part is not being able to test it at all.
