I think that most critics of Kyle Rittenhouse don't disagree with the carriage of justice as much as the disgusting capitalization of his person after the fact. And the entire rationalization for bringing a weapon to a protest is frankly sick, whether he used justified force or not.

AI has been a field within computer science since at least the 1950s. It encompasses algorithms for making decisions, which is why so many technologies are labeled this way. “Intelligence” may seem like an odd choice of terminology (some people conflate it with sentience or similar), but general machine intelligence is one goal of this study, and the applications of AI are putative steps to that end.
Back when those guys started talking about what methods could get us there, things like decision trees, symbolic manipulation, neural nets, were all potential pathways that were on the table. So these get included in the field because that’s where and to what end they were produced.
Another thing is that intelligence can be narrow in its domain. A character in a video game that needs to move from point A to point B can do so following something like the A* pathfinding algorithm. In the domain of graph traversal/pathfinding, it’s hard to imagine something much more intelligent (or fit to solve the problem) than A* despite being a simple algorithm.
But yeah, as a marketing term it is kind of silly since most people don’t know what it means. It remains a useful categorization for a broad field of study/research in CS though.
Same. I thought it was a pretty underwhelming show after the first season but that theme song and seeing the printing/construction process never got old.
Didn’t he kill an employee with a box cutter? lol
I’d still rather hang with him than JP, you’re right on that.
I got the same message on iOS Safari with no special config or UA switching (just an ad-blocker). I figure it’s a badly implemented feature. But holy shit I thought the browser wars settled out a long time ago and we had decent standards in place, guess we’re regressing back 20 years though.
Thanks! This is so much more usable than old.reddit on mobile. I’m a +1 for compact mode but this has earned a place on my home screen for sure.
How do you go back to the feed after clicking into a post? I don’t see any kind of back button in the interface. (Trying it as a PWA on iOS.)
Yeah, I find it works really well for brainstorming and “rubber-ducking” when I’m thinking about approaches to something. Things I’d normally do in a conversation with a coworker when I really am looking more for a listener than for actual feedback.
I can also usually get useful code out of it that would otherwise be tedious or fiddly to write myself. Things like “take this big enum and write a function that converts the members to human-friendly strings.”
Dude provocation is entirely dependent on how others feel. If I find you bringing a rifle to my kid's birthday party is unsettling then you’ve by definition provoked me. I don’t care if you’re not pointing it at anyone lol
