whatsapp is e2e encrypted

Primarily0617,

but SMS isn't where "main communication" happens anymore

virtually all banks and institutions also send out letters via the postal service, but I wouldn't say that was proof that "main communication" was typically delivered via envelope

Primarily0617,

In the congress hearing zucky boy did, he was asked whether Facebook could read Messenger and WhatsApp messages

his response was to more or less trip over himself avowing that Facebook couldn't read WhatsApp messages—even when a follow up question specifically asked him about Messenger, he chose to ignore it and reaffirm that WhatsApp messages were private

i don't really see why he would've done that unless WhatsApp actually was encrypted, given that if he were lying about one it would be a lot easier to just lie about both

Primarily0617,

they were too well camouflaged so the tank crew couldn't see them and backed over them reversing out of the drive

Primarily0617,

just wait for the reaming you'll get when everybody but amazon goes out of business in your country

Primarily0617,

Yes I'm sure the prices will be the same after there's absolutely no competition at all.

Primarily0617,

beats out the brick and mortar stores

??????

Primarily0617,

My point being that while a duopoly may seem like a worst case scenario, it very much isn't.

Primarily0617,

The "highest cost possible" is higher in a monopoly than a duopoly.

Primarily0617,

I don't know what this means

Primarily0617,

if that's how you want to define "highest cost", then goods absolutely aren't priced at highest cost in a duopoly

they aren't even priced at highest cost in a monopoly, because "all the money a person has" is just cartoon logic

Primarily0617,

So "highest cost" isn't set by "what the consumer is able to spend"? So what's it set by?

Primarily0617,

And "the highest price before it’s too expensive and loss of sales cuts into revenue" is higher in a monopoly than a duopoly. Meaning the "highest cost" is higher in a monopoly than a duopoly.

As an addendum, you haven't really mentioned anything past a vague idea of "maximum cost" until now, so I'm not really sure what you mean about repeating yourself. Are you okay, friend?

Primarily0617,

that's a gibibyte

a gigabyte is 10^9

Primarily0617,

You're taking something you learned when you were like 9 years old and assuming it's correct in every situation forever.

Unfortunately this isn't the case and you're incorrect.

Primarily0617,

math is literally the only subject that has rules set in stone

go past past high school and this isn't remotely true

there are areas of study where 1+1=1

Primarily0617, (edited )

And in the "actual" order of operations, if we want to pretend one exists, 2( binds more tightly than ÷

if you're going via prescriptivism, then you're wrong, because there are plenty of authoritative sources following the left hand model

if you're going via descriptivism, then you're wrong, because this thread exists

Primarily0617,

but which axioms you decide are in use is an arbitrary choice

Primarily0617,

if you're going via prescriptivism, then you're wrong, because there are plenty of authoritative sources following the left hand model

if you're going via descriptivism, then you're wrong, because this thread exists

Primarily0617,

math has actual rules to its equations and an unambiguous right answer

you know you could've just started this by admitting you've never touched the subject at a higher level than high school and saved us all this bother

Primarily0617,

I’m well familiar with math and the rules by which it works

i know you won't realise this because you never got past basic calculus, but this is a very funny statement to anybody that did

they know all the "math rules" guys. which ones? ALL of them

but okay these rules: where do they come from, then?

Primarily0617,

Fortunately, the rules necessary to resolve the equation in this post are extremely elementary, so none of what you’re referencing has any bearing whatever.

this would be like trying to tell a chemical engineer they didn't know what they were doing based on your understanding of the atom as a ball of protons with electrons wooshing round it like they were moons

very cute

unfortunately, if you give the expression 1 / 2x to anybody who knows what they're doing they'll interpret it as 1 / (2x) because it would be absurd not to

for reference, that's why the calculator works like this. because it's a tool designed primarily for people who actually know what they're doing with numbers, so it works how they expect it to work

Primarily0617,

a natural reading of 2(2+2) treats it as the same

you're straight up just spouting contradictory nonsense now because you've realised your stance doesn't make any sense, and i am very much here for it

Primarily0617,

ah yes it's the computing power that's at issue here

Primarily0617,

the good calculator is the one showing you adverts

Primarily0617,

try again

Primarily0617,

you're boring now ;(

Primarily0617,

😘

Primarily0617,

also, even if it weren't, they're a HEATHEN

it's practically in the job description to make you uncomfortable

Primarily0617,

the meme format is

you are X because [normal, justifiable reason]
i am X because [degenerate reason that only a little freak could provide]
we are not the same

i don't think you understand irony

Primarily0617,

when i say i don't think you understand irony, i don't mean here specifically

Primarily0617,

oh my sweet baby did you only just learn that not everything on the internet is meant for realsies?

Why do many microwave ovens hum in an interval of a minor 7th?

Something that I’ve noticed across most of the microwave ovens that I’ve used is that when they hum while cooking food, I can pick out 2 distinct tones. One of them is pretty clearly 60 120 hz, the 2nd harmonic of the AC power frequency. The other is consistently a minor 7th above that (which would be somewhere around...

Primarily0617,

frozen peas

it strikes me as weird that somebody operating on your level of elitism considers microwave popcorn acceptable

Primarily0617, (edited )

but that is not a fix

congratulations you stumbled upon the reason this is a bad idea all by yourself

all it took was a bit of actually-reading-the-original-post

Primarily0617,

any AI person training their algorithms on AI generated data is liable to get fired

though this isn't pertinent to the post in question, training AI (and by AI I presume you mean neural networks, since there's a fairly important distinction) on AI-generated data is absolutely a part of machine learning.

some of the most famous neural networks out there are trained on data that they've generated themselves -> e.g., AlphaGo Zero

Primarily0617,

the point of the original post is that artificially fixing a bias in training data post-training is a bad idea because it ends up in weird scenarios like this one

your comment is saying that the original post is dumb and betrays a lack of knowledge because artificially fixing a bias in training data post-training would obviously only result in weird scenarios like this one

i don't know what your aim is here

Primarily0617,

the orc appears to be a woman, so that would be quite the feat

Primarily0617,

maybe you should leech some lessons on behaving like a normal human from society

Primarily0617,

ah yes history

that time in the past when we executed old people for being old

truly you have a dizzying intellect

Primarily0617,

oooh that's a good one we can pop it in your book of quotes

it can go next to the one where you said we should just murder all the old people for the sake of society

Primarily0617, (edited )

"are you so evil that you don't want me to go around shooting the folks at the nursing home in the face for sport?"

Primarily0617,

the best analogy you could scrape together was one that doesn't make sense and doesn't apply in this situation? good job

Primarily0617,

you're right: "we should have just let all the oldies die" is nonsensical shit

i'm glad we're agreed and can close the book on this

Primarily0617,

i agree the only solution to the above is to let them all die of a preventable disease

if you get any smarter your head will start to have its own gravitational pull

Primarily0617,

yes that's definitely the natural progression of events as you've laid them out

if we don't murder everybody who's ever seen the insides of a bingo hall, that's it for society

Primarily0617,

you're preaching to the choir here i fed my nan into the woodchipper 40 minutes ago

my family complained a bit but i explained to them that unless we liquidate anybody old enough to remember the cuban missile crisis that humanity was heading towards certain and inescapable doom and that if they had any questions they could direct them towards an expert i knew on human civilization, history and socioeconomics

Primarily0617, (edited )

i'll get the deathsquads on the phone

not sure why you did the whole song and dance at the beginning to pretend that that wasn't what you wanted but ho-hum i suppose

Primarily0617,

yes the "suffering" caused by in increase in life expectancy is definitely worse than the suffering caused by deliberately killing off everybody's grandparents with novel and fun pathogens

this is sound socioeconomic policy and your understanding of how the world works is exactly as good as you think it is

but you're getting boring now repeating the same old things can you throw out another hilariously shit take for me?
