> Occam's razor: they couldn't make any more substantial improvements.

doesn't sound like a razor at all

That paper outlines a plan to do it, which people have been trying to do since the 70s

Here is one that will launch soon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tianwen-3


> The mission consists of 15 different vehicles and spacecraft plus two launch vehicles

Yeah still looks like an overcomplicated project

Maybe that's why China can make it work


too powerful to give up, sweet imagick love

you can't in imagine the same way you couldn't imagine generating the text from your initial prompt. when will the hubris end?

some variant of "oh i am capable of generating text i know nothing about, but it helps to have a human i can rely on to tell me more about the text i know nothing about."

pick up a bachelors degree worth of books to humble yourself

What? You don't like horizontally scrolling 6000 columns to read something?

Yeah, if IDE's allowed code folding of comments then the authors original problem (having to scroll past comments they thought weren't useful) wouldn't be that big a deal.

many do. for example: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/code-folding-settings.ht...

there are also extensions for vscode that do this, vim plugins, etc


then install the other tool. no one is holding a gun to your head. it isn't windows.

Like how one can easily not use snap on Ubuntu? /s

No, they don't, see laws that make negligent behavior illegal

FA and CA lied to users, and sent data from all the friends of users who filled out a form to CA

If that was the advice, it seems pretty terrible.


>FA and CA lied to users

Where's the lie?

>If that was the advice, it seems pretty terrible.

If you read either my comment or the email, you'd know what the advice was.


The article I linked outlines it pretty clearly.

"Cambridge Analytica then arranged an informed consent process for research in which several hundred thousand Facebook users would agree to complete a survey for payment that was only for academic use.[15][17] However, Facebook allowed this app not only to collect personal information from survey respondents but also from respondents' Facebook friends.[15] In this way, Cambridge Analytica acquired data from millions of Facebook users.[15]"

CA acquired access to the data of ~90 million users from the actions of several thousand other users whom they paid to fill out forms that stated they were for non-political use.

FB said data was private that they then shared with CA without user consent.

This was widely reported on, and people admitted to these behaviors. I am not sure an internal email is enough to rewrite history.

> If you read either my comment or the email, you'd know what the advice was.

I read both of these, and many of your recent comments seem to be some form of directed motivated reasoning or trolling, not sure.
