Depends on what’s outside my home.

Thus far in life I’ve only been able to afford living in cities, so the blinds stay closed 24/7

You’re supposed to be using your powers

That’s why they calling “paying” attention. Like money, attention is a limited resource.

Reminds me of my last abusive relationship. If she’d been consistently horrible it would have been over so fast.

I mean there is. That’s why it’s adhering to this rule about instability being evil. That rule is implemented as a hidden prompt.

Not if you counter the mass distribution with a positional offset.

“Balanced” is a function of the acceleration vector field the balls are in.

Also grok understands science better, and knows an unstable equilibrium lasts for zero time, and hence there is no such thing as balanced for this arrangement.

 
 

I just spoke with a friend of mine on the phone. He’s got various tech support issues including worrying that his phone might have some malware on it.

I have the skills to help him, but I don’t have the time. Therefore I’m looking for more options.

My question is: are there services that specialize in tech support for elderly people? Maybe coming over to do tasks for them, or a place that he can go with devices?

I recommended he go to the T-Mobile store for questions about his phone’s security, but I know it can be hit or miss with the expertise of retail employees.

Does anyone know of an IT service that specializes in helping elderly/tech-non-savvy individuals?

 

O’Neill cylinder is that big rotating cylinder space station format that uses the spin for artificial gravity.

At higher elevations the gravity will be lower. BMX bikes will be fun too. Make a big jump and you can go across the center and land on the other side, or go into a zero-gee part in the middle, which works out if you’re always inside a curve.

 

I’ve noticed ChatGPT gets less able to do precise reasoning or respond to instructions, the longer the conversation gets.

It felt exactly like working with a student who was getting tired and needed to rest.

Then I had above shower thought. Pretty cool right?

Every few months a new ChatGPT v4 is deployed. It’s got new training data, up through X date. They train up a new model on the new content in the world, including ChatGPT conversations from users who’ve opted into that (or didn’t opt out, can’t remember how it’s presented).

It’s like GPT is “sleeping”, to consolidate “the day’s” knowledge into long term memory. All the data in the current conversation is its short term memory. After handling a certain amount of complexity in one conversation, the coherence of responses breaks down, becomes more habitual and less responsive to nuance. It gets tired and can’t go much further.

 

I asked GPT-4 for a list of the most important threats to human civilization, their likelihood, and why they were considered threats.

GPT's output is also pasted into the comments.
