Here in Canada in the 00s I remember it being a really bad slur. I haven’t really heard it used at all since then though

I can’t figure out how the devs dropped the ball so hard with Evolve or that more recent L4D clone that also sucked.


The obvious solution is a government age verification service. Platform age verification is just more data collection, I highly doubt it will even keep kids off social media.


This is their usual marketing scheme - “it’s too powerful to release!”


If I had to guess, it’s because Cuba had tourism.


Didn’t Elon merge xAI into SpaceX?


L4D2 - it upset me that the disc just had an install of Steam and I would have to download it.
I really miss when buying PC games was fun.
That’s apocryphal actually, according to wikipedia:
The origin of “guinea” in “guinea pig” is unclear. One proposed explanation is that the animals were brought to Europe by way of Guinea, leading people to think they had originated there.[1] “Guinea” was also frequently used in English to refer generally to any far-off, unknown country, so the name may be a colorful reference to the animal’s exotic origins.[27][28]
Another hypothesis suggests the “guinea” in the name is a corruption of “Guiana”, an area in South America.[27][29] A common misconception is that they were so named because they were sold for the price of a guinea coin. This hypothesis is untenable because the guinea was first struck in England in 1663, and William Harvey used the term “Ginny-pig” as early as 1653.[30] Others believe “guinea” may be an alteration of the word coney (rabbit); guinea pigs were referred to as “pig coneys” in Edward Topsell’s 1607 treatise on quadrupeds.[1]
They also just have lots of strange names in different languages


no and you shouldn’t


Colonialism, “$” is a derivative of the shorthand for peso which was the name for the Spanish dollar. So all the locals were calling their money a dollar before the actual “dollar” currencies became a thing.


There was some references to experimental models not publicly available and some % info.
Internal comments reveal that Anthropic is already iterating on Capybara v8, yet the model still faces significant hurdles. The code notes a 29-30% false claims rate in v8, an actual regression compared to the 16.7% rate seen in v4.


Is this the one that when they leaked the Claude Code source code, it had like 3x the fail rate of Opus?


You say obviously but I don’t see how tethering a loose object with 5000ft of live wire is “obviously” safe


Does it have batteries on board? How does it connect the power to the grid? O_o


Probably just lying to their boss. I have an AI obsessed boss and regularly lie about how much I use it because productivity is actually measured entirely by their perception of you and not by any real metric.


Reminder their constitution doesn’t allow elections during war, for good reason - how tf are you supposed to vote when you’re being bombed?


I’m excited for these to come to Canada.


Sounds like AI is ready to replace CEOs


It’s both. It’s a bubble because of the amount of investment and lack of actual revenue, but it’s also being used to replace humans. We will have to pick up the pieces when the bubble bursts, but in the mean time it’s going to concentrate wealth and lower the standard of living.
Given their answer to “was the article AI generated?” was “the article is about…” we can safely assume it’s slop.
