I’m almost positive that what actually happened is that the response the chef cut off included an instruction to mix the ingredients, but he cut it off before it could say that. I bet the LLM doesn’t get any feedback about whether or not the voice module got through the whole response, so it couldn’t account for him not having heard it. He probably could have gotten back on track by saying something like “I haven’t mixed the ingredients yet, let’s start over.”

The ingredients list it was going through before he cut it off probably mentioned the pear too, which would have been a good time for him to say “We don’t have a pear, is there a sauce we can make using only the ingredients visible here?” but he was afraid of going off script.

See my other comment reply: directly challenging the government’s monopoly on the use of force seems like one of the most political possible acts.

I don’t think we know for sure, but their slogans suggest that they’re leftists, so it seems worth at least a mention.

You don’t think stopping the current campaign of mass deportations, which seems like a likely motive, is a political goal?

Edit to be clear: politics is the struggle for control of the polity. Directly challenging the government’s monopoly on the use of force is, perhaps, the most political act of violence possible.

This one doesn’t count as political?

Alvarado ICE facility attack: 11 charged in ‘ambush’ on ICE officers, officials say

There is a section in this video where he talks about game elements he thinks are “bullshit” and I don’t know if I agree about any of them. But I will also admit that playing NetHack at an early age, where

You fall into a spiked pit! The spikes were poisoned! The poison was deadly! You have died. Do you want your possessions identified?

was a completely normal and expected way to lose a run, may have warped my sense of what counts as a fair game mechanic. ^_^;;

What’s unfair about getting booped into spikes? That’s a classic video game death!

They’re not saying they’re tricked that it’s real, they’re saying that after taking off the headset the real world also doesn’t feel real. The feeling of things being wrong persists after removing the headset.

I’m still on Pandora and honestly have no idea how they stack up. I just use it as a radio station on long drives.

I’m not saying they definitely weren’t cheating, but I have definitely hit some shots in my time that seemed impossible. If you fire enough rockets at corners that you think someone might come around, or in games with snipers that penetrate cover, take blind guesses through walls, you’re going to get lucky eventually.

Edit to add: just saying, the line is blurry indeed. But I think if I got kicked over it, I’d be a good sport about it! “Got kicked for cheating because I was too l33t” would be such a good story. I’m sure some people have had it happen.

“Actually St. Pete is right, your name is not on here.”

You think Bibi trusts Trump enough to tell him about an op like this beforehand? I think Trump’s relatively friendly relationship with Al Thani is exactly the reason he didn’t find out in time to warn Qatar. The plan was to kill Hamas’ negotiators and then present it as a fait accompli.

Ahhhh that makes sense.

I haven’t played this one but that seems like a weird thing to have happen. I seem to remember BJ being the kind of action hero who can kill three mechs before breakfast and still consider it a slow day.

Ah, but they don’t have an F1 car, they have a Dallara GP2/08, which was used in the GP2 series! An entirely different thing!

I, for one, welcome our new worm-like overlords.

Apart from the fact that your brain ages too and it’s 100% irreplaceable, the main issue with turning yourself into the human Ship of Theseus is that you’re going to be on immunosuppressant drugs forever.

I guess if you were a monster you could raise clones of yourself to adulthood and then murder them for their body parts. This doesn’t solve the problem of some parts not being reasonably replaceable, but it could protect you from some organ failures.

It’s true, I don’t get it.

This writer seems to be missing the point. The point was not what HitchBOT was. By creating HitchBOT, its makers invited the world to play pretend with them: to pretend (for entertainment purposes!) that HitchBOT was a whimsical hitchhiker in need of aid, and to collectively see how far the participants in this game could get it. Destroying HitchBOT selfishly ended the game for everyone else.

One time someone complimented my hair and I impulsively decided to use the old joke, “Thanks, I grew it myself!” and they didn’t laugh and the rest of the encounter was 10x more awkward than it needed to be. >_<
