It’s called hackthebox not hackoutofthebox

It should be a basic requirement of literally any public office. That fact that we have got this far baffles me utterly.

Yeah I’ve been migrating away steadily. And what a shame! Now Google don’t get to use my emails to train their shit AI.

There’s a bit more to it than that

Pattern recognition is one thing that our brains do, it is a very long way away from the only thing our brains do.

I’d say if you have 80% of the requirements you might as well apply. I would frankly ignore years of experience more or less entirely.

It’s not exactly uncommon for a listing to advertise the person they want, but to accept applicants with significantly less on the basis that they can get there. Nearly every job I’ve ever got I was not at the level advertised in something or other.

Couldn’t disagree more. You’d miss out on such bangers as “Congratulations, you are being rescued. Please do not resist.”

No I will not fucking hear you out Jeremy

London is full of excellent amazing things but they’re spread out over an absurdly large area so it’s such a pain doing anything. And everyone who lives there is so numb to it! They’ll happily indulge every day in 3-4 hours of public transport as if this is a rational way to live.

I’m very happy that they have a reasonably decent transit system, but fuck me I wanted those 4 hours in my life actually.

That’s true, I only relied on my phone until the first time it just didn’t work for no reason haha

I would have put forward “weg” but I’ll accept “weeg”

Well of course we’re going to throw poo at him

The median is an average. But it isn’t the mean, which is presumably what the other comment was using.

Not that much different to losing your wallet before you could pay with your phone

Oh, sorry the 45 page document is for something else. The only person who understands this dataset is Dave and he was made redundant 5 years ago. Anyway, can you get this done today?

No thanks, I’ll stay home

Once you get the pattern in your head it’s pretty easy to remember where to go. The tricky part is actually holding up your ring finger on its own.

Base 10 on your hands is really base 1. Every finger is either 0 or 1 and we just count them! Base 12 we do have 12 positions each representing a digit, and two potential digits from our hands.

Binary is so much more efficient because you have 10 digits, just like in base 1, but you use them more efficiently.

The next logical step is trinary, if we can incorporate enough fingers it would go higher than binary. Wikipedia suggests three positions of your fingers - up, down, and somewhere in between, or folded - but I’d be surprised if anyone can realistically do that with all their fingers. However, using four fingers on each hand and pointing them at different knuckles/the tip of your thumb gets you 8 digits of base 4 (including not pointing at the thumb at all as 0)… And actually doesn’t tangle your fingers up too bad.

ChatGPT is not designed to fool us into thinking it’s a human. It produces language with a specific tone & direct references to the fact it is a language model. I am confident that an LLM trained specifically to speak naturally could do it. It still wouldn’t be intelligent, in my view.
