Sadly, more common than you think. Instead of "water resistant", people tend to hear "waterproof"

I just say tired since I’m a night owl as well as an introvert.

Well, since he cites VL and many sources I find your comment… odd. Why don’t you try a more discernible response instead of a one-sided one so we can take you more seriously

That’s an interesting looking book.
I had one of those UV-5Rs somewhere but it’s gotten lost in several moves. I should see if I can find it again. That book looks like it could be more useful than the user guide that came with the radio

Reply to comment by the_happy_atheist in ACLU suing Saucon Valley School District over district's decision not to allow After School Satan Club by LeaveThatCatAlone
Students in a school don’t have unfettered free speech rights and are subject to speech and activity restrictions decided by their school.
I don’t think freedom of religion is at issue here legally. I think that would apply more if the school wasn’t allowing students to exercise religious practice during the school day.
Freedom from religion seems like a buzzword that has no legal grounding

Positive: A little backstory, I had two jobs. Got let go from one (for a terrible reason) & laid off at the other a week later! I didn’t have very much in savings and my dog had a $1400 surgery that same week. (I’m young, made very dumb mistakes with my money which I FULLY recognize. Now I know better so it was a great learning lesson.)
It was a struggle and thank God my parents helped me out, but I still had to max out my credit cards to pay bills. I couldn’t find a job for 3 months & I finally got a great one back in January! I’ve been slowly getting back on my feet & realized the number one cause of my problems was my high rent! I’m paying around $2000 after all my bills. The base price of my rent is 1687. Not counting my car insurance, internet and other necessary expenses.
The win: I secured a new apartment this week that’s super nice and cheaper! Now my base price is 1436 and I’m SO happy with that. I don’t move in until July. I live in metro Atlanta so that’s great & should help me start turning things around! After insurance, groceries, internet, etc, over half of my current income is going towards my rent right now.
I’m also looking for a part time job somewhere to help pay off my debt & pay my parents back! Fingers crossed!!

Reply to comment by CautiousCold8392 in ELI5-What is the fibonacci sequence? by amsdys
There is absolutely no physical process that favours the golden ratio for spirals. The factor for a logarithmic one simply is not too large, and not too small. Like 1.3, 1.5, 1.61, or 1.8, maybe even 2 or 3. Some humans attribute patterns where there are none.
The only exceptions I've ever seen where Fibonacci numbers really (roughly) appear are growth patterns that mimic its recursion. Sunflowers are often mentioned, never checked if even those actually work but they might.

Then you should be equal open to treating your water bottle with the same level of respect. Don't try to argue that it isn't living, because those are my morals.
It doesn't matter dude. We pick what we want. But thankfully, society mostly aligns with what I consider the most morally outrageous such as rape, murder, etc.

Reply to comment by SkyeandJett in ChatGB: Tony Blair backs push for taxpayer-funded ‘sovereign AI’ to rival ChatGPT by signed7
With enough investment it wouldn't take long to catch up with OpenAI. I think by this time next year there will be multiple models better than GPT-4, maybe even hundreds. Almost anyone can do it. It's possibly the case that GPT 4 isn't even trained optimally. Its very slow so presumably didn't build on the optimal data/parameters balance shown in the chinchilla paper.

FWIW, you can buy a kilogram of CBD here for $550 That works out to 2,667 doses at 20 cents per dose. So not as bad as you might be thinking.

Reply to comment by normalboyz1 in how do i (23f) bring up what i saw on boyfriends (23m) instagram? by [deleted]
we’ve both gained probably about the same amount of weight during the relationship. it does not bother me at all, as i am just as much, if not more as in love and attracted to him as i was at the beginning.
the only “change” is that we’ve moved in together and he’s kind of a slob, but i’m ok with that bc i do really enjoy cleaning lmao

Three years ago you could argue with *exactly* the same arguments that something like GPT-4 is impossible.

No problem. Ya know, with the beef that Russia continues to have with the rest of the world, you have to find humor and milk it for all it's worth, even when the steaks are high.

Right? 2023, you can be tracked by a device that you willingly bought and take everywhere you go. Apps literally ask to allow use of your microphone but nah the lightbulbs are recording and filming you.
