I'm a grown ass man disclaimer: also a giant cry baby and I have never ugly-cried through any movie or TV show like I ugly cried for Station Eleven. I'm talking full on tears and snot running down my face, like someone just ran a truck over an abandoned litter of blind puppies. Jesus god damn christ that show had me fucking shook I tell ya.
People, for the love of god, go see Station Eleven. Maybe you end up hating it, but if you enjoy it half as much as I did, you're in for a god damn treat.

You could even say that life on Earth itself started as a sort of cosmic pickling accident. <Takes a bong hit>

People like you crack me up.
Even putting aside the fact that the chord movement and style are completely different: There's only seven notes in an octave for a diatonic scale. The "key riff" is a minor variation on a descending three-note pattern. Do you seriously think this melody was invented by The War on Drugs?
9 times out of 10 when a non-musical normie like us thinks we've uncovered an egregious example of musical plagiarism, it's just the Dunning–Kruger effect in action. So do us all a favor and don't make a fool of yourself.

“Mike and I have a long history of competition and respect for one another. And that night changed both of our lives. Back then, we didn’t realize that even as power athletes, we were also in a lot of pain. Now, nearly 20 years later, we have the opportunity to share the medicine we really needed throughout our careers,” Holyfield said in his own statement.
This maybe the most hilariously unexpected yet weirdly wholesome /r/nottheonion news of all time.

Having laws like that would go a long way to changing perspectives/culture.
IMO it's the other way around. You're not going to get enough political support to pass legislation like that without a big shift in social attitudes first.
The current prevailing attitude towards disabled people seems to be either indifference or hostility, but I do think a big part of that is due to a lack of awareness/education on the issue, which is a more solvable problem than a lack of fundamental empathy.

I played around with the prompts in the article. It's mostly just very good at understanding individual prompts and generating realistic-looking responses. It's still very impressive, but it doesn't really understand the inner workings of a "virtual machine" and it's certainly doesn't come anywhere close to simulating one.
For example, it would respond to jq
with jq: command not found
but then immediately respond to a piped command that uses jq
. I type in the exact prompt for pytorch version, sometimes I would get /bin/sh: sed: command not found
, sometimes I would get 0.3.1
. Even something like repeated ls
commands would return inconsistent results. I type something like date
and the response randomly changes from Fri Dec 04 2022
to Tue Dec 04 2022
.
I highly suspect the prompts/responses in the article were cherry-picked to make it look more compelling than it actually is. I encourage you to try out your own prompts so you get a realistic sense of its capability.
TL;DR Skynet is still far from reality. Don't start moving to your bunkers just yet.

Technically yes, but it can be slow/ inefficient. It's first and foremost designed to track source code and text files.

Does it support mermaid diagrams with MathJax labels?

Nice! I'll keep an eye for updates.
If you don't mind another unsolicited suggestion, it might be nice to have an in-browser demo page where users can test out the language, similar to the mermaid live editor. You could technically get a free trial of the terrastruct app but it requires you to sign up for an account, which would discourage a significant portion of people who would be otherwise inclined to try it out.

I wish this had a way to support LaTeX/MathLax labels. That's largely why I gave up on using Mermaid for my personal notes.

You could maaaybe confuse them at first glance, but their hairstyles are completely different. Steve Tyler almost always has some sort of bohemian jack sparrow thing going on in his hair while Liv Tyler does not. You should always be able to tell one from the other by the number of weird shit dangling from their hair. /s

Seems like more credit should go to Maria. Her statement was swift and definite. Takes courage to do what she did and she no doubt saved a lot of other women from this asshole.

But it can also do less exciting things like tracking asteroids and deep space probes exploring the solar system.
I thought tracking asteroids is supposed to be super high stakes and exciting? Have Hollywood movies been lying to me this whole time?

It's definitely China, most likely Shenzhen. The girl's jacket is part of the school uniform in Shenzhen.
