  • It’s more like they’re using the wrong sign for addition / using addition instead of subtraction to confuse you. The shepherds start with x sheep. They pay 30 and have x - 30. They should get 5 back, but they only get 3, so they have x - 30 + 3 = x - 27. If the sons had given them the last 2, they’d have x - 27 + 2 = x - 25 = x - 30 + 5.

    If you want to view it from the trolls’ side, you need only multiply everything with (-1).


  • I wholeheartedly agree, people use the term “AI” nowadays to refer to a very specific subcategory of DNNs (LLMs), but yeah, it used to refer to any more or less “”“smart”“” algorithm performing… Something on a set of input parameters. SVMs are AI, decision forests are AI, freaking kNN is AI, “artificial intelligence” is a loosely defined concept, any algorithm that aims to mimic human behaviour can be called AI and I’m getting a bit tired of hearing people say “AI” when they mean gpt-4 or stable diffusion.






  • Someone else here said to spend time reflecting, but I found this only made things (edit) worth worse for myself.

    My secret weapon is distraction, it’s the only thing that truly helps when I’m in a, uh, dangerous (for me) mood. Distracting yourself with things you love doing helps distancing yourself from the situation and makes you realise there is more to life than your ex.

    No amount of talking about my feelings or reflecting on the relationship has helped me as much as listening to music, drawing, baking, exploring new online communities etc.

    You know how people will say if you start lying to yourself that you’re great and happy, you’ll eventually start believing it? It’s similar to that, I think, you remind yourself often enough that there are other things you love and that make life worth living.

    So, yeah, time + filling your life to the brim with things and activities you love.
