  1. You claim comprehension, yet so consistently display the opposite Do try to follow along. God isn’t required for judgment on our thoughts and actions. We have ourselves and also the society in which we commune to provide such feedback and consequence.
  2. iNow replied to m_m's topic in Relativity
    False. Frame of reference for earth is valid. Frame of reference for light is not. Undefined since light isn’t a valid reference frame. Again, you may as well be asking: “How loud is potato divided by zero, and express the answer in units of Celsius”

    By definition and it’s equally by definition never at rest

    Light doesn’t have a valid rest frame so the question is meaningless. See also: How many times does zero go into Swiss cheese when doing division.
  5. Firstly, you introduced it for the first time 30 minutes ago here in this thread. No need to rely on memory to validate. You only have 20 posts so it’s easy to check. Secondly, nobody suggested otherwise so strawman much? Just another boring troll it seems
  6. Technically, so do humans
  7. The lack of blood flow and any electrical activity whatsoever in the neural regions responsible for it. If this is not obvious to you, then you’re either making up your own definitions of what memory is, not arguing in good faith, or both.
  8. Classic creationist argument against evolution by conflating it with abiogenesis and suggesting all theories are same as all beliefs. Basic structure: “We’ve only witnessed parts of the process not all together when it actually occurred billions of years ago therefore your trust and faith in that as truth is no different from my trust and faith that goddidit. Both equal.”
  9. I wouldn’t say majority, but definitely many of those who are loudest and most prominent in our feeds and screens. It’s also not just any king, but specifically a king who scapegoats and targets the correct “enemies” next door as the root cause of that voters problems.
  10. And if they’re part of reality, then they are subject to scientific inquiry. The human condition is very much at risk in several significant ways right now in large part bc humans keep ignoring scientific findings and continue relying instead on their own subjectivity.
  11. Is that subjective? But it happens! I’ve seen it with my own two eyes!!
  12. It appears you didn’t bother reading the article before posting?
  13. Of course there are. You have size of the context window and how many tokens are allowed. You have how many billions of parameters the model was trained on. You have metrics on different efficacies of training type like RAG or RLHF. There’s lag between query and response and how many hundreds of milliseconds it takes to receive audio responses to voice prompts, or how many modes can used to engage it. On top of that, most releases have a model card which lays out how the system was setup and what to expect in the results. There’s human rankings based on how capable the model is, and ranks that are calculated based on tests designed for PhDs or mathematicians. You can determine how good it is as writing and repairing its own code. https://huggingface.co/learn/nlp-course/chapter4/4 Details matter here, but assume fancy Google for now with most goods available today to consumers
  14. There are machines which measure activation and intensity and blood flow across brain regions.
  15. Well, in fact, I just made the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs. Sorry for having some off topic fun in your problem solving thread, Genady. Well wishes on the leak being easy-ish to correct.
  16. Correct, bc opinions are like arseholes. Everyone’s got one and they usually stink… and this a science forum FFS
  17. Whah…. Whah… whah… does someone need a snack or new diaper?
  18. If not imagination in one of its many forms, then from where? Anything which surfaces naturally has a natural explanation and source underlying it. Those are both subject to scientific inquiry.
  19. People eating magic mushrooms and LSD feel the same. Exactly as you said, easily explainable neural response.
  20. Meditation is quite beneficial, but it changes one’s cortisol and adrenaline and stress levels much like relaxed breathing does through increased oxygen consumption, but (beyond the small space between your ears) does not alter spacetime itself. I encourage you to keep meditating because right now your thinking is rather sloppy and perhaps that will help. You don’t even realize how often you contradict yourself because you’re so convinced everyone else is wrong and must be argued against. A poet might say that humans are the universe trying to understand itself for a little while, and poetry often provides us with new perspectives and insights, but it’s value again involves thoughts and feelings not in altering spacetime more broadly (and no, survey results are also irrelevant to the claims you’re making). It’s important keeping an open mind, but not so open that your brains fall out.
