I doubt that the US would win a war that far away without their allies providing infrastructure and Trump has alianated all western allies. I believe he is even capable to end those alliances in the middle of a war, resulting in effectively closing down military bases in Europe that are essential for the US.

You say you like the one from Qwen better and the only reason you give has nothing to do with the task.

In general, one should provide specific expectations regarding the properties of the image before the experiment. One important property should be "does not hallucinate stuff into the image that are unrelated to the prompt".

Pretty sure actual Rust advocates will disagree.


I don't think you can entirely remove the side effect of getting treats.

Treats are without a doubt the only true universal language.

The second statement implies the negation of the first though. So OP is correct assuming the term "claim" includes "implies".

However, the original argument regarding smoking bias is correct of course.


The problem is that "just do what works" doesn't justify a whole agile industry and not even two days of training.

The real claim of the agile industry is that they know what can work and that you can find it using agile. That also has real value - if true.


In the team's power to determine a working process but in the scrum master's responsibility.

If you use scrum, and if you have a scrum master. You categorically don't need to do either of those things though.

This sounds a bit like you dislike the lack of understanding, which itself is based on lack of understanding.

On the other hand I agree that commenting on ones disability is a break of boundaries in most contexts. One should quite often avoid to comment on traits in general that are irrelevant for the context or the conversation.


It is not about understanding, it is about not even trying to and just telling a complete stranger how you think they have it bad. That is, as you identified, a break of boundaries. And, frankly, if someone breaks into your house, you are not obligated to "understand" them. You just know they are shitty humans.

I think it's a valid argument to say that people with down syndrome are much happier than those without. Most of them need a society (or at least multiple other people) without that trait to survive, though.

This post is about curing down syndrome though.

Saying “but they’re happy” in this context is implying that we shouldn’t try to cure it, which is obviously ridiculous.


I had the exact same reaction as you but vitriolic, had to take a step back and treat it like a research exercise (in another reply)

Re: "but they're happy" x obviously ridiculous, it hit me 10 minutes in, if we're going off 99% happy, it's absolutely absurd - then the conclusion is we should give everyone down's syndrome.

My initial snap reaction was it must be trolling. But it can't be, if you're looking to stir the pot you don't do it on the 6 comment non-technical post on the second page.

Which kinda makes it more disturbing, to me, because it goes beyond someone not understanding. It's some sort of weird active misunderstanding, like, seeing fun heart-warming Downs syndrome sibling videos on social media is enough for one to assume it's net-good, somehow.


Because of the context I would think this is sarcasm, but I am not sure.

It is.
