Comment The world has no free will either, idiot. (Score 1) 347

"The world is really screwed up and made much, much more unfair by the fact that we reward people and punish people for things they have no control over," Sapolsky said.

The world does't have free will either, idiot. So the reward and punishment system is in fact good.

You downplayed fugitive's actions quite casually. Are you aware of fugitive's actions? One of his actions is (as per Wikipedia):
"He has also been reported to have been raising his own army and 'human bomb squads' consisting of brainwashed youth as suicide bombers idolising Dilawar Singh."

Comment That's great (Score 1) 133

From user's point of view I can install apps and runtimes and even libraries from limited user account without the need of administrative privileges. That makes flatpak so blessed as compared to shitty snap that always need to corrupt the system folders. It's so clear that designers of flatpak were thoughtful enough to render something that can compete with both snap and appimage simultaneously.

Need not be so paranoid to drag religious extremism into this conversation. When it comes to technology and finance, India is super-secular. Gullibility due to technical ignorance and corruption can be the only impediments here in transforming the idea behind the bill to real customer benefit.

Comment Useless for multiple devices in a family. (Score 1) 89

I wish eSIM could be swapped between two devices from two different manufacturers in absence of active network, just like a physical SIM card. Waiting for eSIMs to mature enough like physical SIM card before I go for them. I face such requirement often in my family, especially with older people.

Does human brain process ideas and information way differently than LaMDA? Our brain may have 100K times more neurons than LaMDA, we don't know how many of our neurons are redundant and this gap, though huge, is somewhat mitigated by machine being billion times faster on numerical computations. Not hard to believe, still far from perfection.
