  • Top scientists call for permanent ban on high seas exploitation

    Jump

  • The same treaties that define what are international waters also define universal jurisdiction for some crimes - every country is allowed to exercise their sovereignty against pirates for example. The list "just" needs to be expanded.

  • Heroes

    Jump

  • Lol, they don't even match consistently between Portuguese and Spanish which are much closer, even when the noun is literally the same (e.g.a água vs el água)

  • Math Matters

    Jump

  • Chebyshev distance can also be called chessboard distance if you want something more descriptive.

  • Ser Davos destroys Connor McGregor

    Jump

  • It takes a special kind of person to accept being punched in the head for a living.

  • ChatGPT 'got absolutely wrecked' by Atari 2600 in beginner's chess match — OpenAI's newest model bamboozled by 1970s logic

    Jump

  • We understand reasoning enough to know humans (and other animals with complex brains) reason in a way that LLMs cannot.

    While our reasoning also works with pattern matching it incorporates immeasurably more signals than language - language is almost peripheric to it even in humans. And more importantly we experience things, everything we do acts as a small training round not just in language but on every aspect of the task we are performing, and gives us a miriad of patterns to match later.

    Until AI can match a fragment of this we are not going to have an AGI. And for the experience aspect there's no economic incentive under capitalism to achieve, if it happens it will come out of an underfunded university.

  • [MyGumsAreBleeding] Superhero

    Jump

  • We can solve those problems directly or indirectly by tying superman to a dynamo. With free energy even the issues with materials can be solved over time.

  • I was jist following orders

    Jump

  • The same applies to most gang members.

  • From ‘Tudo bem?’ to ‘Gracias,’ a growing share of US residents speak a language other than English

    Jump

  • *Portuguese. We also use it as informal greeting in Portugal, and I'm pretty sure it's universal to all portuguese speaking countries.

  • Musk calls for Trump to be impeached as extraordinary feud escalates

    Jump

  • For the impeachment itself, assuming the Democrats all vote for it, Musk only needs to buy 9 republicans.

    For the trial, he needs to get 20 republicans for the two thirds. It's not going to be cheap, but it sounds doable.

    The problem is that leaves Vance in charge, and a focused autocrat is not an upgrade.

  • US slams ICC judges with sanctions over investigation into Israel

    Jump

  • Germany it's because of the holocaust (funny that it never translates into wanting to make a safe homeland for Roma people at all costs).

    US it's because of Christian death cults wanting a new temple in Jerusalem because they think it will bring Jesus back.

  • Netanyahu says Israel has 'activated' some Palestinian clans opposed to Hamas

    Jump

  • Benny was caught giving weapons to the Islamic Fucking State and for some reason decided to own it.

  • The eternal march of technology continues

    Jump

  • All armed forces are probably on a permanent anxiety attack with everything drone related that's happening in the war in Ukraine.

    Outside of keeping everything in deep bunkers there's not much defense possible against all the attack vectors drones open up.

  • That Cup of Coffee May Have a Longer-Term Perk

    Jump

  • Microsoft wants a version of USB-C that “just works” consistently across all PCs

    Jump

  • It still solves one end of the problem. The cable problem probably needs enforcement from law side.

  • Supreme Court allows AR-15 ban in Maryland

    Jump

  • The solution is turning this on its head and having a law saying which weapons are allowed.

    Granted it's hard with how the archaic constitution of the US is written and how creatively the conservative judges read it, but decisions like this give room for states to try more tiered access to weapons.

  • Bill Gates: Microsoft founder to give most of $200bn fortune to Africa

    Jump

  • Which still has no material impact on his well being and keeps most people distracted from his behaviours from all kinds of inappropriate conduct at Microsoft to his efforts to rehabilitate Epstein after his first conviction, with a bunch of economic crimes and things that should be economic crimes in the middle.

  • Right-wing opposition candidate Nawrocki wins Polish presidential election

    Jump

  • It's eastern Poland tilting the scales to the far-right, despite all the nationalistic talk they are still pretty russified.

  • Tinder tests letting users set a 'height preference'

    Jump

  • Like all dating apps they have a strong incentive to promote superficial short-term connections over long term relationships so they have repeated customers. The worst thing that can happen to a dating app is their users finding a long term partner.

  • Deleted

    Firefox supposedly now supports the Global Menu on Linux

    Jump

  • When Ubuntu used Unity. I think there 3rd party GNOME applets for it but never anything official from the GNOME team.
