You are not just off topic, you are a pro-terrorist scumbag.

no. Not childish. The accurate description.

really? why? Orcs are the closest thing that we have in folklore that describes their insane behavior, including suicide without any hesitation the moment they find further suffering slightly inconvenient. It is a good description of war creatures that display complete disregard for anything living. They murder children, rape everything that breathes, eat their own, kill them and eat them. Orcs.

I am sure over the last 3.5 years all sorts of things happened, however orcs from ruzzian mad king are doing it daily and they are getting orders to do it from their commandment as well. Ukrainian forces have investigated a few cases that were reported from the Ukrainian side. It has been 3.5 years of daily attacks by ruzzian orcs on Ukrainian civilians, hospitals, kindergartens, birthing wards, houses, theaters bombed in a terrorist strategy of trying to force Ukrainians to take down their government. Instead the people of Ukraine have worked together to build an extremely efficient system of producing, purchasing and transfering to the front lines drones and all sorts of other equipment. I know it first hand, I personally have spent over three quarters of a million USD to fight against the orc invasion. Your comment here shows what sort of trash you are.

they will take a donkey's kong up their ass, that's what they will take at the end of this. They are gaining a few hundred meters of forward movement per day for hundreds and thousands of dead orcs. This is what they count on, that people will give up simply because they will not be able to stop the meat attacks. The meat attacks will stop as the money dries up and it will dry up.

ruzzian orcs use drones to murder individual civilians, including children. This is different from simply carpet bombing, to murder a 1 year old in this case they had to hunt him down specifically, find him and blow him up individually.

This is the face of the ruzzian 'soldier' today, putin or not, it is the individual people who are making every day decisions. AFAIC ruzzians are now all legitimate targets, every one.

Do you feel guilty at all about the homeless that are swept into furnaces these days to power your voracious electricity demands?

Is this feeble attempt to gesture at Thermodynamics predictive success as doomed to frustration as the prediction that the moon should be falling into the Earth but actually it's moving away from the Earth? How does Thermodynamics predict that mere movements on a gravitaional objects can contradict the often-taught principle that a body rotating another will eventually fall into it?

Correct, the headline should be: Why is Fertility So Low in EXPENSIVE Countries?

The reality is that 'high income' more likely than not means high prices, constant pressure to keep earning money, because there are very few things in 'high income' (expensive) countries that doesn't cost money. We are constantly forced to pay taxes, never mind that in expensive countries large parts of the population live in dense urban areas, in cities and nobody has land that they can live off of. If you have no source of food other than the store and you cannot avoid paying taxes and paying high costs of owning or renting a property, then you are constantly under pressure to earn money.

In an expensive country you have expensive government and this government never ceases to pressure you to pay more taxes, makes things truly unaffordable by pretending to give it to you for free, basically in expensive countries you are forced to provide not only for yourself and for your children and maybe for your elderly parents, you are forced to provide for your expensive government.

An expensive government is obviously the cost of running the government itself, salaries, pensions, buildings, all expenses but it is also all of the laws, that are constantly adding more and more expenses to the system, thus mostly forcing the government to get deeper into debt and to steal your purchasing power through inflation (money printing).

Under these circumstances people who have access to contraceptives will use them almost always and this prevents almost all unwanted pregnancies. The other part of the population is just too stressed out and too tired from constant earning to pay for all of this 'high income' expensive stuff.

At the end children become a luxury for those, who can afford just a little more than the other guy or they become a way to suck money out of the system itself by getting onto various programs. They are an irrational choice for many, so to have them you either have to have a direct financial incentive or to be irrational or to be wealthy enough to afford them.

just play human music at 5% processing and keep the settings on auto, we'll deal with this later.

Being nonviolent, why can't I choose the first option? And why shouldn't I be able to announce my suicidal intentions openly, with arguments as to why suicide is a good idea, one that you should consider (and everyone else!) too?

Are they really looking for intelligence in these LLMs or are they missing something else that slows down their progress? Is it intelligence, that we are trying to get out of LLMs? If so, I think they can be easily at least as 'intelligent' as anyone, they certainly have more information than any one person does. Maybe what they are looking for and not finding just cannot be found that way, that's because it is not intelligence they are looking for but some form of organic animal like behavior? In that case they will be looking for a while, not until we have robots everywhere that are more than a camera on a car, something that can touch, taste, smell, feel pain, hunger, consume to sustain itself, will the new level of 'intelligence' appear.

Why is the stock market at record highs?

Remember when Reagan said Carter's couple trillion dollars of national debt was the endgame, but here we are with US stocks still the world's premier performance asset?

Is it time to ask whether Reagan did, in fact, prove that deficits don't matter?

Maybe the real question is why bother having children, to bring them into the world where they are really unwanted by the entire society?

Does it matter if the dollar depreciates 10% if your dollar assets appreciate 20%?
