A generative model uses the classifier as part of its training. If you generate a picture of pure random noise, then iteratively pick random noise that the classifier says “looks” more like csam, then you can effectively generate images that the classifier says it’s 100% certain is csam. Whether or not that looks anything like what a human would consider to be csam depends on other factors but it remains a possibility.

Jesus Christ. If someone ever got their hands on this model they could use it to generate new material. The grossest possible AI model to date

Pretty sure the adult star was lil Lupe. She was everywhere at the time because she did, indeed, look underage.

You can sell the buyout option to a place like Carvana or something.

Felt the same. I dropped the Witcher after 10 hours. A solid try, in my estimation. I usually quit games around the 2 hour mark if I’m not feeling it.

I was in a bit of a depressive rut when I started c2077 so I just kinda plowed through the beginning not knowing if I didn’t enjoy it because of the game itself or if I was on the edge of offing myself. Whichever reason it was, after the world opened up a bit I started to fall in love with the characters and story about 15 hours in. Which is a huge ask. If you’re into games as a storytelling medium, it’s a 10/10. On a mechanical level, it’s about a 7/10 for me. It’s ok throughout, and even really great for some of the set pieces.

In a past career, I was a mechanical design engineer; I’ve probably spent 10,000 hours of my life in SolidWorks. Not once did I feel like a 3d mouse would speed me up or otherwise solve my problems. I trialed a spacepilot for several months and just couldn’t be arsed after awhile. What do others get out of them?

Doesn’t matter if it’s visible or not- any laser capable of delivering enough energy to kill or otherwise disable a mosquito will harm your eyes.

My wife didn’t typically game in the traditional sense, but games she’s enjoyed in the past are the older Mario games, the Sims, and project zomboid (which she describes as the Sims but with zombies).

She’s also got like 100 hours in power washing simulator and she’s too scared to try Stardew valley because she knows it’ll consume her life.

They’re not interchangeable. ‘Fewer’ is for countable nouns and ‘less’ is for aggregate nouns, just like ‘how many’ and ‘how much’.

E.g:

Aggregate:

“How much sand? Less sand.”

Countable:

“How many grains of sand? Fewer grains of sand.”

In my experience Perl is a write-only language. Coming in behind someone else and fixing or writing their code is often slower than just rewriting it

Death road to Canada

I’ve written a million lines of powershell in the past few years for stupid business reasons. I fucking hate the language and I don’t see why anyone would write anything serious in it

I’m a developer. Most of the time when I contact IT it’s because they broke something I rely on, like our vCenter appliance or network communications between some Linux appliances with static IPs.

A fairly minor and shitty law that influences all public speech about other people

Solidly millennial.

I once saved a raid from wiping on a naxx boss by doing the last 1% of damage myself using LOH and bubbling at the opportune moment. Everyone else was dead.

Facebook used to (or still does?) have games on it. When Tetris was added, I climbed to the #1 rank in the world in one of the modes, I forget which. Didn’t last long though

What’s the efficiency for turning jet fuel into mechanical work? I’d suspect the efficiency is somewhere around 45% for liquid fuel where it’s nearly 100% for electric. So you’re really trying to reach the equivalent of 5500 Wh/kg.

Yep it only took 1000 allu akbars to get my mechanical engineering degree 🤡

Here’s an industry talk about how to prey on whales
