Not the one you asked but - I thought it read more like an exam question than a crapgpt question.

It is this part that rubbed me the wrong way: “Please provide formulas and an example.”

That’s like the part where the examiner is giving a hints about how the marks will be awarded.

Either way here’s my equation: P(Answer | Question and constraint on answer ) < P(Answer | Question)

I assume that’s the OOPs intention though; to block out some of the noise from the responses. I only see one formula so far (excluding my stupid one) so I’m not sure if it worked strictly, but I’d be surprised it it hasn’t filtered out some answers.

It was a typo, he actually cursed gifs because he was sick of all the memes.

I think the point is that the tech doesn’t materially change most starwars characters interactions from present day. It’s not really scifi because the science / tech doesn’t shape how the characters interact dramatically.

If you give the characters some real scifi-tech like put them inside computers, or have backup throwaway clone bodies, or jack them in to a hive mind, or give them time travel or alternate universes then the whole dramatic context of the character interactions has to change and the story has to be shaped by the technology to some degree. It’d likely be a bit more alien as our innate sense of constraints and jeopardy doesn’t apply.

Only really the deathstar is anything different tech wise - it is only used once, and becomes more like a part of the maguffin.

The other fantastic dramatic features that starwars does use that are alien to us - precognition, mind control, reincarnation(sortof) - are magic rather than tech.

If it’s a niche it should probably have a dedicated community for it: e.g. c/cooking@lemmy.world

Personally I did like the button sewing post, maybe that is generally useful enough that everyone should know. But I’m already in a few repair/DIY community that never get enough posts, and I’ve just found a ‘Sewing, Repairing and Reducing Waste’ one where it’d fit too.

Maybe it could be tolerated but should have a tag like [NICHE] in a title and a recommendation that OP should cross-post it as a way to promote/ support the other communities.

‘Do’ do be doo-doo. /jk (and not ‘proper’ grammar for anyone still trying to figure it out.)

“Americans” is a stupidly large and diverse population to say anything meaningful about. It’s extremely unlikely that that any population of humans of such a size doesn’t include some individuals who are more extreme than you, both more and less, for almost all traits.

You’re less likely to observe introverts than extroverts because one of those types will tend to do things in a way that are less likely to get your attention. You might well be experiencing observation/selection bias, possibly also reinforced by confirmation bias.

But whatever you think to be the “typical”, even if you could estimate it using some unbiased sampling method, it is often not a helpful way describe the whole population, or at best a reductive “average” that has limited useful applications.

TLDR - human populations are diverse. I don’t think any nation has ever effectively brainwashed or eugenicised their population into a single homogeneous group.

That’s my password for most things, any hackers die of RSI before they get in.

I tought you had to play blackjack/ pontoon/ 21 to count cards?

cheap and easy.

It’s many thousands of years of solar power , concentated in to a storable, portable and fairly accessible and transmutable form.

Countries don’t “generate” coal and oil, they suck it out of the ground. It was generated by thousands to millions of years of life and accumulated geological processes.

The concept of “the average person” is a good example of the type of crass generalisation that propagndists often use.

If you want to boost USA manufacturing industries I’d look at the sector that killed it first.

Bring in international capital controls, forex restrictions, limit consumer / mortgage credit maybe bring in some directed credit requirements. Badically the bank regulation that was chucked out in the 1970s. When us msnufacturing industry mysteriously started to decline. 70s recessions were not only caused by oil price shocks, and the sectoral shift was reinforced by bank liberalisation.

I’d think you’d want to force the USA finance industry to invest (at least some decent amount) in the future of USA productive capacity, instead of letting them invest in China’s future and have an arms race to fuel a perpetual domestic property bubble.

Tarrifs might still be part of it - but if your domestic companies can’t borrow, they can’t grow or maintain/develop asset base.If they don’t have working capital facilities, they liquidate fast.

Tax breaks might work/help (as might tarrifs), but if taxes are all on profits, you still need to borrow against the future to make the investment in the present (i.e. make a loss and pay no tax anyway) to build the productive capacity. They’d be better for short payback or labour intensive industries than for capital intensive industry - without other stuff.

I guess if you mean income tax breaks for workers in certin types of jobs/companies, that is interesting. Either way you need quite a lot of monitoring to avoid corruption of just wierd distortions with unintended consequences. That’s what banks lending to businesses should do and be good at, monitoring their loans and their debtors.

And Slackware, of course.

I think the idea is that someome wants to avoid being “cancelled” after they’ve been exposed for for abusing social trust and norms of behaviour - usually to their own benefit.

So they denigrate or attack anyone exposing their shitty behaviour or anything similar. If they can do this they can contine to be cunts to society and avoid being ostracised by it.

But once they can get away with it, one can systematically exploit social trust and norms repeatedly, and presumably grow the power and influnce of their subculture. Even at the cost of overall the weath of the encompassing society - it won’t matter to the dicks so long as they can extort a bigger share of the smaller pie.

Polite society will unfortunately struggle to effectively ostracise the people who do this because they’re (rightly) worried about due process, accountability, fairness, and miscarriages of justice.

They’re trying justify making the selfish choice in the prisoner’s dilemma and abusing the trust that is so useful to cooperative/polite society.

They also get annoyed if coperative society is rational enough to slap them with the reciprocity they deserve after being found out for being a twat.

But I think they rationally they do want a 2-tier society, where lots of people in one tier cooperate to build trust and wealth (generally using trust instead of lawyers), then their tier extorts that wealth. And they find ways to protect themselves from consequences (generally using lawyers).

I’m sure many of the brainwashed masses don’t know which tier they’re in though.

Interesting thanks. Not all that surprising though.

Makes me wonder how ‘real’ roman gladiators were.
