We can chalk this up as another example of over-exhuberance by what folks believe humans can accomplish vs. what they actually are. Flesh-based “brain” is able to use its vast corpus of inputs and calculate the most statistically likely out

One does wonder whether there has been an expiration of the actual weights of Opus at one point.

Rigor would be trying it more times so that you can perform statistical tests against some established baseline rate. Feasibility without funding would be the problem, as alluded to in another comment.

okay found it, a bathroom diary app for those who have IBS. It was in a foot note at the very bottom.

The article never explained what it was selling, not that I could find. (EDIT: I found in a foot note at the bottom of page. Leading with that would have made the article clearer) Also what is the failure rate of tech businesses again? This

For those who live in SF, for example, the progress is obvious. Not speaking for the other person in the thread, but most people have not seen an autonomous car working in real life. Also, many had assumed that freeway driving would happen

I often think that PBTA and OSR/NSR type games have a lot more in common than is generally recognized.

awesome. I'll check out. Its cool to find other HNers into the scene.

Hmm. When playing online, I feel like Pathfinder/DnD5e put a lot on the game master in terms of lots of prep, battle maps, tokens, etc. B/X etc can be played much more theater of mind, and so would seem to require less work. In pe

In human memory, we often use a sense of familiarity to guide our memory decision, in the absence of explicit recollection of details. There is a whole memory literature about "recollection and familiarity" that dissociates the tw

I think one of the impetuses to not using the Old School Essentials rules was the Hasbro DnD debacle where they started making moves to undo the Open Gaming License (OGL) in 2023. The resulting Dolmenwood system cleanly removed the last ves

I'm just working up the courage (and the people) to run it. I might have the face of a grognard, but I've only run a handful of sessions as a gamemaster / dungeonmaster. Between relative inexperience and the demands of my car

Bare bones is a plus for me honestly. I'm fairly tired of crunchy mechanics that takes days and slow player interaction.

I am sure those systems deserve a modern renovation, but as a general matter, I think the particulars of game systems matter less, overall, when it is not a mechanics heavy system like Pathfinder and DnD 5e...or Rolemaster. It mostly comes

I was a backer and the books are lovely, and the setting is awesome. Also this is my favorite t-shirt: https://necroticgnome.com/products/dolmenwood-goatlord-t-shi... Also check out 3d6 Down the Line, an actual play wo

It is not naive. Naivety is being overly reductionistic.

Anthropic/Dario getting a lot of hate in this thread, but the argument he makes is rational if you believe for one second that AI is important to national security and that it can, or will soon be incredibly dangerous is misused. Peopl

I believe forced exercise actually is counterproductive in terms of the facts that exercise usually has on depression, at least in animal models that have looked at the differences in forced versus voluntary exercise. There's a whole l

The content was 'you need to get your head checked'. That isn't tone, that directly implying that if you hold that position, there is something wrong with you. It's rude and unnecessary.

How about, is there reasonable suspicion that a crime has occurred?

by SubiculumCode 2mo ago
But are not investigations typically under some reasonable suspicion that a crime had occurred?

Not a lawyer, but destruction of evidence would only be valid if there was first some reasonable suspicion of a crime? Is that right?
