The Books - The Lemon of Pink

There needs to be a third vote button for “what the hell does that have to do with anything anyone is talking about?”

I don’t even have any Microsoft stock, but I still wanna get nasty with your grandma.

Just because a set is infinite does not mean that it will contain every possible permutation of something. That’s a common thought but a provably untrue one.

For example, there are infinite even numbers, and none of them are 3. Not a single one. If someone claimed that generating infinite even numbers would eventually return a 3, you wouldn’t take them seriously, and rightly so.

But here’s the rub: you can also generate infinite even numbers and never return a 2. Every time you generate an even number, there are infinite numbers that it could be. Even if you don’t allow numbers to repeat, it’s not like you are gonna exhaust the amount of non-2 even numbers.

Just because a set is infinite does not mean that it will contain every possible permutation of something.

So back to the typewriters. You might say that while there are infinite numbers, there are not infinite permutations of a string of characters the length of the works of Shakespeare.

And that’s true.

If you were to say that a string of characters the length of the works of Shakespeare (or longer) could never be repeated exactly, the yes they would type the works of Shakespeare.

But then they wouldn’t be typing randomly.

Randomness repeats. Infinite randomness can repeat infinitely.

And we are not dealing with strings of characters the length of the works of Shakespeare. We’re dealing with strings of characters of infinite length. And there are, in fact, infinite permutations of those.

So… Yeah.

There’s no logical basis for infinite monkeys typing infinitely, inevitably producing the works of Shakespeare. Or fecal dioramas or alternate universes where Spider-Man is real or whatever else. Doesn’t hold water.

Only if you confine “ai” to mean an LLM.

Automation has replaced so many jobs already. More to come. Head in the sand won’t help anyone.

I’ve seen Weebl videos. I’ve seen them with my eyes.

Too bad they can’t just pick up a rando with mental health issues and lie, torture, and starve him in a room until he “confesses”

A headline of a judge ordering something to happen doesn’t instantly make it happen. Still takes time.

Not at all. Other climate deniers, sure.

But if you ask Alex Jones about climate change, his usual line is that the earth actually needs more CO² because it makes plants grow good, and the globalists are tricking us into reducing emissions to destroy ourselves.

Auction hasn’t happened yet, the staff recently had to go around putting sticky notes on personal property to make sure it didn’t get included.

Lol they would take every penny if they could

Daaaaamn gurl swing them big ole shit tanks!

In the same way that they don’t contain ash. The tar and ash are produced by combustion.

ish

This is a way in which you can discredit any attempt at proposing correct or logical language use

It absolutely is not. You’re just talking out of your ass.

The same one that you are, in fact, showing when you demand that the personal preference of some random stranger is the way that everyone has to talk from now on. Ludicrous.

It did mean the same thing, but now it doesn’t

That isn’t a grammatic rule. Some guy in the recent past was like “I think it sounds better that way.” It was his personal preference.

That’s all.

They’ve always been used interchangeably, for as long as English has been a written language.

People who love to “correct” this are just showing ass to anyone who knows any better haha.

Girls have a higher pain tolerance than boys.

Sounds like the sort of thing a doctor says while explaining himself at an inquisition.

I’m seeing conflicting research on a cursory look.

How does their adult role model hitting them not just teach them that hitting is socially acceptable?

Teaching this to a kid without empathy seems like the worst imaginable circumstance lol.

And I sure as hell don’t want someone other than the parents ever making that decision.
