Too bad you wouldn't be allowed to sell it without catching a misdemeanor or a $25,000 fine.

Uppers aren't regulated as firearms. Only lowers. In CA SCS might be required to ask for your ID to make sure you're not a felon to comply with AB 1263.

Don't speak here.

You used to be able to print the CAG19 carbine but now you have to carve it by hand from a block of wood. Doesn't have the same ring to it.

Oh, you don't miss paying $800/year for the privilege of having an LLC that does literally nothing?

I love reading posts like this. When you were a child, learning math or grammar, do you not remember bouncing off the walls of incorrect answers, eventually landing on a trajectory down the corridor of the right answer? Or were you always instantly zero-shotting everything?

In my experience, this is exactly how language models solve hard new problems, and largely how I solve them too. Propose a new idea, see if it works, iterate if not, keep going until it works.

Of course you can see how to solve a problem that you've seen before, like a visual puzzle about balanced parentheses. We're hyper specialized to visually identify asymmetries. LMs don't have eyes. Your mockery proves nothing.


The mistake in these types of arguments is that natural, classical-artificial, and/or neural-net-artificial learning methods all employ some kind of counterexample/counterfactual reasoning, but their underlying methods could well be fundamentally different. Thus these arguments are invalid, until computer science advances enough to explain what the differences and similarities actually are.

I had to force myself to forget about rhino after they deprecated the only version I had a license to, and I moved off Windows, because I would have been destroyed if I realized what I had lost.


I really wish they had a hobbyist license. I'd pay $100 for a non-commercial copy.


Contact McNeel and ask. Email Bob some examples of your work. Definitely include some/all of your unpublished book.

Bob is how I got started in CAD. As a student, I pestered him until he found me a job (at one his clients).


You don't get it. Your 400sqft apartment needs to be shrunk by a factor of 6 to have the same area as the Orion. Try living in an 8x8 foot square for a couple weeks.


That’s unfair as well - in space, more of the volume is usable. Perhaps equivalent to 2X 1G volume would be fairer.

Have you ever been on a boat?

What is a "boat"?


The boat you can step outside of, have a sky

Not in a storm you can't! Granted I didn't do ten days. But I was with two other people for close to a week and it was...fine. We're old friends. There were moments it got annoying. But it was never boring or restrictive. We just played games, drank, looked out of the portholes, cursed hangovers and talked the one person who occasionally wanted to call it.


Yeah that sounds fun and closed spaces can be cozy too, at least especially when there isn't certain death outside


Ah. You refer to Rationalism.


I can port it to an FPGA and so can you.
