I don’t agree with it, but the reason this religious argument (and most challenges of religion) falls flat, is because, to the true believer, their God is infallible, and so the idea of God making a mistake like that is on direct conflict with their core beliefs.

That’s what, five people?

It’s a lot different when it’s thousands and thousands

For sale, but not to own and you can buy it off roster as well.

Even the strictest state is less strict than most countries.

The nature of 3d printing means that printed parts can be prone to layer separation which means that your flared base may become separated after a fierce session.

Just a warning that 3d printed toys can be very dangerous to anyone thinking of using one, as tempting as it may be.

Debt is a concept not a physical thing, there isn’t anything intrinsic about it that must make it transfer to others.

If I’m ok with forgiving $5 they my friend owes me for lunch, that doesn’t make the debt mysteriously transfer to a 3rd party.

You can just generate a PDF on demand. There isn’t much permanent about them at all.

I actually don’t think this is the case, since it’s just emulating actual behavior. In this case, real humans are talking like that, so if the AI adopts that in its training data, it’s not nonsensical.

It’s not really different from new slang getting passed in as training data and the AI using it.

How? The us citizens have no consistent and reliable way to do so.

A birth certificate does not guarantee citizenship as it could have been renounced, social security numbers are granted to temporary workers and immigrants, and passports are not mandatory or encouraged by government.

If you are a natural born citizen who was stopped by law enforcement walking down the street today how would you prove you are a citizen right then and there?

How would you be able to actually prove you are a citizen without discovery of government records in a court of law?

When applying for a passport in the US, you must provide a birth certificate that meets many qualifications, that brith certificate is then cross referenced and verified. If you don’t have it you have to do a lengthy file request process, a cross referenced birth certificate is the only way you can prove you are a natural born citizen, and that can’t be accomplished on the side of the street.

But they do have a pr department. The holy see is a political organization. They are an internationally recognized government with diplomatic relationships. While not a member state of the UN they are permanent observers and influence decision making on a worldwide scale, and it’s not a secret that the church, which is run by the same person as the holy see (the Pope) has had its fair share of controversy.

I don’t think it’s a stretch to think the holy see spends time and effort in order to make their appearance, and the appearance of the church, look better.

I think you think I’m someone else.

But that is neglecting the performance aspect.

Something like this can be very good for offloading large amounts of data onto a parity backed array either to be moved to a proper long term storage solution later or to be actively worked.

High resolution / bitrate footage comes to mind, where you may be offloading multiple cameras at once and need high write performance.

It’s pretty unlikely that SSDs will have price parity with spinning rust anytime soon, but the value in them has always been performance.

Probably because one is founded on evidence and the other one is founded on a made up concept by the institution in question.

I mean, the Catholic Church is a political organization that has global reach, I don’t think it’s a wild conspiracy that they carefully consider their appearance.

Also, airplanes have spoilers!

Are people really not aware that you don’t have to have notifications for everything?

You can turn all the notifications off on your phone and watch.

The value the watch brings can be found in other places, for example, being able to stay connected and have music and emergency contact without needing to lug your phone with you during a run or if you lose your phone.

A smart watch means you can leave your phone at home more often in general while still being available to those who genuinely need to be in contact with you, which is great for reducing doom scrolling and the like.

Funny, but really, those things are marginally more effort than learning the rules and are a far cry from the level of effort it takes to actually be considered broadly ‘good’ at chess.

Learning one opening system can be done in about an hour and most of the tactics advice is just things to think about as you play.

The thought termination at the end, ugh…

It’s not about a banner, the subject is a person and there is a predicate to a direct object. The post is about people who do something, not about the thing they do.

But it’s hard to be impartial / objective about modern stuff like that.

If you want to beat all of your friends at chess:

learn how to mate in endgames with a few different combinations of pieces.

Castle early and on the same side of your opponent.

Learn to defend scholars mate.

Focus on piece development early on, get you back rank pieces out (bishops knights)

Fight for the center

When attacking a square, just count how many other pieces are attacking and defending that square and see if you have more than your opponent, this is a great way to quickly analyze an attacks value.

Trade when you have a piece advantage, this is like taking a math question and simplyifing the terms. It greatly simplifies the game and brings it in to the the end game with an advantage.

Learn any one opening system just a few branches that can consistently bring you into tactics (static analysis of the board state) even or with a slight advantage.

These tips can be accomplished in a week and will dominate anyone who ‘just knows the rules’
