This would be one of the best unpopular opinions posts Lemmy has had yet … if you had provided any reasons. Without reasons it’s just meh though.
Hello.
This would be one of the best unpopular opinions posts Lemmy has had yet … if you had provided any reasons. Without reasons it’s just meh though.
tbf, discovering Uranus was a lot less deadly before modern icebreaking ships. Age of Sail ships did not do well down there, and the economic incentives of sealing resulted in quite a lot of casualties back in the day. Doing math and peering through telescopes is much safer.
tbf, kids content on youtube has been a shitshow for awhile. Here’s a short Folding Ideas piece on it, that’s equal parts surreal, sad and scary:
You did get me a little riled up a few posts ago. The switch to rationality vs irrationality was a good one. lol
You seem to have a proclivity for making sweeping generalizations and overarching statements. You’re not actually the God-King of the Universe, though, fyi. Regardless, I apologize for not meeting your standards for explaining my own anecdotal experiences.
I can’t quite put my finger on it, but there’s something about this photoshop that makes it utterly amazing. Might be the hat.
I really hope this doesn’t start an actual cult. People don’t need much in the way of an excuse, you know.
I’m sorry, but if you want me to remain what you’d define as civil, you’re going to need to be reasonable, not ridiculous. You haven’t answered my question. Where does this belief all things are sourceable come from?
No, that’s a frankly absurd request. What is or is not “good” is not something sourceable, it’s an entirely subjective question. What makes you think everything has some definitive source?
Not if I’m recounting a personal experience, no. Humans are not purely rational creatures, otherwise laissez faire capitalism would solve all the world’s problems.
If I wished to be purely rational, then perhaps. But personally I do not think all feelings are worth disregarding.
If done poorly it very much is. But practice makes you better at it.
It depends too much on way too many factors. Generally I’ll be almost as polite as they’re being.
Convos usually involve turn-taking though, so once you’ve provided evidence or a sound argument, you should not be forced to do it again. It should be their turn to assert something, and then possibly have to provide whatever.
Just don’t let the opportunity pass to treat them exactly, or potentially slightly worse, depending, than they’re treating you. Don’t stay on defense, assert, ask questions, directly contradict, whatever is needful.
Don’t let them dictate the convo. You can assert control as well, don’t let them lead uncontested.
Just call it out and redirect back to the topic. It’s like training a dog.
Just an anecdotal account. I was expressing my own experiences and how they make me feel, for which it would be challenging and largely unnecessary to provide evidence to a random dumbass on the internet, yes?
/not s, an example
It’s a clever method of trolling. But if you come prepared and/or are willing to put some effort in, you actually can wreck them with evidence and sound arguments that shuts them completely up.
This is very satisfying.
France does not need NATO permission to deploy their own troops. They pulled out of the NATO command structure back in the 1960s.
It’s really just not a very good unpopular opinion post. It’s literally the mainstream position of one of our two main political parties.
Which makes it a fairly meh troll post.
C’mon S Korea. I know you have one of those “no-arms-sales-into-active-conflicts” laws in place, but you can’t just sit back and let the north profitably scale up their artillery production like this without taking some steps yourselves.
Eventually, yes, I think it will be. Not yet though, the tech just isn’t strong enough atm. But an AI is resistant to the emotional toll, burnout and low pay that a real life therapist has to struggle with. The AI therapist doesn’t need a therapist.
Personally though, I think this is going to be one of the first widespread, genuinely revolutionary things LLMs are capable of. Couple more years maybe? It won’t be able to handle complex problems, it’ll have to flag and refer those cases to a doctor. But basic health maintenance is simpler.
