Poe's Law and all.

Little tip for the younger folks reading this: if you are given two contradictory explanations for something, the correct explanation is probably the third one.

HOLY GOD. Worst possible wording.

> Use an LLM to do a real world task that you should be able to achieve by reasoning.

Such as explaining the logical fallacies in this argument and the one above?

If you're trying to tell me there's a sucker born every minute, I knew that.

Not ready to mount weapons on, if that's what you're asking.

This reminds me of the contemporary use of e-bikes in Ukraine, which I understand is one of the many reasons that this war was not the curbstomp Russia seems to have expected.

I think I've just seen the perfect vehicle for commuting in Boston.

At the moment I read "how to reason" in the headline my bullshit detector started to go off.

LLMs do not reason, they do not think, they are not AGI. They generate by regurgitating.

I mean I don't doubt that it happens, but the swimsuit rule probably cuts down on it. And to be fair, that pool is possibly the sexiest place in Berlin.

The EZ is the keyboard I have. I found that almost harder than getting used to the layout, was the extra pressure that's required, going from using the squishy keyboard that came free with my last desktop machine to something with mechanical switches.

I don't think anyone is holding Ireland responsible for "Irish" pubs. It somehow just became a genre of bar on its own, and it's easy to do in a lazy caricatured way, suitable for someone whose chief aim in owning a bar is rooking tourists: shamrock-based logo, change the name to "O'Whoever's", and have Guinness on tap, good to go.

Then you have other places like my old hangout from 20 years ago, which had a few of the same visual signifiers of Irishness, but the owner being in fact an Irishman, he didn't feel the need to go overboard with that. Hope that place is still open and doing well.

The dome pool is also the one part where you are required to wear a swimsuit. I'm pretty sure the reason is that if you didn't, let's put it like this, that water would become a health hazard pretty quick.

I was last there three to four years ago, nudity was required except in the pool, there you had to wear a swimsuit.

> Vic 3 being another example

Isn't that the truth...I love Paradox games as a rule but you have to accept that they'll be slow.
