They have had that. The problem is that it's just like humans trying to improve themselves by directly reprogramming the brain.
So you get everything from lobotomies to "biohacking". None of it works well, because we don't understand ourselves any more than LLMs understand themselves. You get tiny incremental improvements, or human that can't even take a shit without assistance for the rest of his/her natural life and everything in between. Same for LLMs trying to improve themselves. Incremental improvements or utterly insane LLM and everything in between.
And so, there's a reason why we don't do lobotomies or try too hard to let LLMs improve themselves right now. Though LLMs are way closer to being able to hack themselves to be better than humans are due to rate possible iterations in any given time frame.
What, exactly, is the point or purpose of including code in your program that is downloaded from a third-party website every time you execute the program?
No, npm is literally the opposite of that.
If you want to include a function or subroutine or library in your program, why wouldn't you just download it and use that?
I run Drupal and it uses composer, which does basically the same thing. But then I want some javascript libraries that you can't get through composer repos itself, you need to get them from npm. So every time there's one of these npm exploit stories I say oh shit, some more shit I need to read. Luckily I'm only pulling in literally two packages from there. But I don't need to do this, I only do it specifically for the purpose of not having my site refer to some other site for those javascript libraries. That way, someone else changing their library doesn't automatically screw up my site, or more plausibly since I am not running any javascript on the server side, start back dooring other people who visit there. So npm is exactly the kind of thing you think people should be using, except with less oversight which is why we keep hearing about loads of compromised packages.
Disagree on this. That's like saying only shows that trek through the stars should be called Star Trek - and yet the best Star Trek series ever made was Deep Space Nine.
Yeah, they had B5 to crib from.
The Stargate is just part of the premise of the followup shows, not a required defining characteristic of them
If you're putting it in the title, yes it is.
Dear friend,
We make certain rules so that we can live in the same nation together. For example, we must to a reasonable extent unify our motor vehicle requirements so that you can reasonably travel to other states without onerous additional inspections and harassment. Alas, with rights come responsibilities.
Signed,

The link we wanted was actually in that story, which is worthless by comparison
When the show is called Stargate, you expect Stargatey stuff. They set the expectation, then failed to meet it.

The Stargate is just part of the premise of the followup shows, not a required defining characteristic of them. Even for the original series, by about season 6-7 it was sharing the field with ships and other methods of travel.
As for Universe, it did stumble out of the gate (haha), for sure, but almost every show does. I think it had found its footing by the middle of the second season and season 3 was set up for some great potential. It absolutely deserved a third season.
You can see this on every popular forum and social network. And as far as I can tell, the only people they ever try to verify actually exist are the real ones

Yeah, but he has to close his eyes, who can successfully nut while being sucked off by The Joker?
They are sitting on it and not using it. They would be happy to take in licensing money instead.
Not necessarily true. They might think they can make more with it in the future, or they might just want to stop a competitor from having a success when they do not at all need the money. You are thinking like a poor.
I'd say the original series is the weakest of all of them... but this is understandable, because they were finding the formula. They didn't really hit their stride until a couple seasons in there either, but there was a lot more to like sooner than SGU. The state of the art was lesser at the time as well, so that made it more appealing, because the production values were really very high. It might not seem like it if you compare S1 of SG1 to S1 of SGA, but you just have to remember that time passed there.
If you watched it in period and were fresh off a high of watching the movie, it was a lot more appealing.
It's clearly unconstitutional (like 90% of what the Federal government does)
Ah, you're one of those people who doesn't recognize that the ICC and general welfare clauses constitute an effective blank check, because the constitution was written at a simpler, dumber time
The other 7,999,999,999 people on the planet really don't care. Fortunately you don't run their lives, and you should be happy they don't run yours.
There are exactly 8B people on the planet? That's interesting news. Factually though, most people want less pollution, and don't care what cowards think.
