  • What's the dumbest blockbuster movie you have seen that somehow received high praise?

    Jump

  • I think that Ready Player One was terribly ported from the book format to the movie. The book went so much more over the top than the movie did, the latter turning down on a lot of nerd aspects. Having said that, different formats need different ways for conveying the same idea. The main character would literally get a "+1 blazing sword" in the book. +1. As if it were an MMO or something.

    Having said that, Dune (book and movie) were terrible. The movie felt plagued with references to stuff I didn't get. Only recently did I read the book just to find it was as uninteresting as the movie.

    I'll never forget those opera singers singing right to my ears when a ship would land... Now that's a way to startle a person.

    On the bright side, reading the book has allowed me not see the second part of the movie.

  • How about getting more professors on board and making sure everyone can study?

  • Do you think people would be okay with 'Recall' if Apple did it?

  • It's closed source, so no way in hell

  • Fun mental exercise - remove the formalism behind agile methodologies out of software development. How is that any different from driving another human being mad?

    I have altered the specifications. Play I do not alter them any further.

  • Pornhub + math mode. For when post nut clarity hits and you know how to solve that proof.

  • Tim Cook is “not 100 percent” sure Apple can stop AI hallucinations

    Jump

  • AI interest has come and gone. Some decades ago, people would slap the AI label to expert systems. If we go further back, one would call AI to solving problems in blocks world. It's eventually going to fade away, just like all the previous waves did.

  • That's what it comes by not really understanding what you're doing. Most of the AI models I work with are the state of the art just because they happen to work.

    In my case, when I solve a PDE using finite difference schemes, there are precise mathematical conditions that guarantee you if the method is going to be stable or not. When I do the same using AI, I can't tell if my method is going to work or not unless I run it. Moreover, I've had it sometimes fail and sometimes succeed.

    It's just the way it is for now. Some clever people have to step in and sort things out, because our knowledge is not keeping up with technological resources.

  • Oooh, gotcha! I didn't understand many of the replies because I'm not well versed in economics, but I thought that it meant nationalized indeed.

  • Can you give ownership of it to someone else?

  • This doesn't seem right. Barry White wrote Love's Theme around 1965, and released it in 1973. It also reached number 1 on Billboard, so I guess that counts as (US) mainstream.

  • This week in KDE: Triple buffering and other sources of amazingness

  • It feels to me that it's looking to replace the Cut and Paste operations. This makes perfect sense for a tactile device, but I don't feel like Dolphin is tactile ready - other KDE apps like Index intend to cover that ground instead.

  • Dolphin now includes a feature to move the selected items into a new folder, all at once

    This one feels awkward

  • Your usual pal won't be running Blender, they're going to be stumbling their way through LibreOffice and a browser. Massive echo chamber right there.
