Definition 2 is the closest to the way that relatively is used in most speech and it still uses “relation” in its definition. I don’t love the Cambridge one but it is better than the MW one.
Oh shit you weren’t just being an asshole throwing out definitions to prove a point, my bad for assuming the worst.
He [Gabe] is relatively [in comparison to other billionaires] down to earth.
Its not a high bar but he does pass it especially if you’re only comparing to the more well known billionaires.
Some people can and have interpreted me calling their source bad a personal call out. I’ve done that before, honestly it’s not a great thing to do but emotions exist.
What kind of garbage definition is that lmao. Not your fault I know you didn’t write the fucking dictionary but what the hell. Here is one that doesn’t use its own fucking root to define itself.
Do you know what the word relatively means?

6·5 days agoI think eve might be winding down honestly. New player experience is still fucking awful and the people that had time and money in the past to dedicate to eve seem to be moving on.
Not saying it’s going to die soon probably just a gradual slow down.

1·10 days agoWhat false positives do you think that an AI would alert for that a human wouldn’t also have to investigate just at a slightly later time because symptoms keep trending in a direction. A nuclear reactor is an incredibly consistent system if something is giving you a “false positive” there’s a solid chance something is still wrong.

62·12 days agoHot take I know. I’m not talking about LLMs obviously but AI could absolutely be implemented to reduce risk in a nuclear plant. Having a constant double check running for every decision could reduce the risk of a tired human pressing the wrong button and leading to a SCRAM at the very least.


When you inherently can’t understand what you are creating there is no sure way to control it.
