Raising a question means what you think it does. Bringing up a question which is a natural consequence or follow-up to a previously stated point.

The original meaning of begging the question is quite different and is a form of circular argument where the premise of an argument already assumes its conclusion is correct.

Ktarians could have shorter gestation periods and the horns aren’t developed before both. Or a thicker skull deep they aren’t fully erupted. Or maybe Ktarians lay eggs.

There are definitely ways to run partial testing suites on modified code only. I feel like much of what you’re complaining about is an already solved problem.

It’s inconsistent. Canonically in most Trek warp 10 asymptotically approaches infinity, which is why you see a lot of nine-point-nine-something when really high speeds come up, but every now and then the writers forget and you’ll hear about exceeding warp 10.

You also have things like transwarp, quantum slipstream, or the proto-drive which operate on different principles and don’t follow the warp curve. Their equivalent warp factors would just involve stacking up ever more 9s after the decimal point, but their speeds aren’t typically expressed in terms of warp.

I’ve been waiting for someone to do this for years.

I can’t speak for other manufacturers, or even in other countries, but Mitsubishi Canada at least has an opt-out for data collection. You need to call their customer care number and they will remotely disable it.

When cruise control is on, yes, but it’s extremely gentle. The slightest bit of resistance from the driver will overpower it.

Can’t also for Toyota, but yes, my Mitsubishi has the option of simple cruise control without lane keeping.

I’ve never had any issue with the lane assist in my Mitsubishi. It’s absolutely built as an “assist” and not something that will actually try to take control from you. It’s trivial to “overpower” it manually and turn out of your lane without signaling if that’s what you want to do, but does a perfectly reasonable job of steering on its own when left to its own devices.

That said, I wouldn’t be driving a vehicle new enough to have the feature yet either if I hadn’t been rear ended a couple of years ago and had my 2012 Lancer written off. :(

With imagery, or in abstracts. I have an internal monologue but not everything is a monologue. If I’m working on a project of some kind I’ll usually keep a mental model of the current piece I’m working on in my head. There’s no monologue attached, it’s just a “working copy” of my current task.

Or for example if I’m reaching somewhere I can’t see to plug in a usb port or something I’m visualizing in my head what my hand is doing, but I’m not talking myself through it.

What blows me away is how much of it is so obviously AI but people seem to just not notice. You do see it called out from time to time, especially on Lemmy, but in the wider Internet it’s much more common to see people just engaging with it.

This is probably a diffusion model. LLMs don’t create images.

While desalination does need a lot of energy it’s dealing with the waste brine that’s the bigger problem when actually planning one. You can’t just dump it back into the ocean without killing a huge swathe of marine life.

I’m not sure why you’re taking a oppositional tone. To be clear I’m complaining, not trying to justify it.

Literally no one I work with likes Teams but we keep using it because that’s just what we do. Other options basically don’t exist simply by virtue of being either not Microsoft or not overwhelmingly the market leader.

This was my very first thought as well. The first section of almost every Wikipedia article is already a summary.

Yep, recent blog post about it:

I stand corrected

The same priority operations can be done in any order without affecting the result, that’s why they can be same priority and don’t need an explicit order.

6 × 4 ÷ 2 × 3 ÷ 9 evaluates the same regardless of order. Can you provide a counter example?
