When I was a kid and I was trying to get to sleep, I’d close my eyes and remember all the different bedroom layouts I’d lived in. Like in one place the wall was to the left and top and the door was down by the foot of the bed. In another place the wall was just to the top and the window was to the left and down. In another place the wall was just to the top and the door was to the top and left. etc.

Sounds interesting. Glad those topics are still being investigated. So important to remember that even those neural methods labored for decades in the shadows before they finally found the answers they needed.

“discrete AI” (probably has a few other names)

• symbolic AI
• traditional AI
• GOFAI (good old fashioned) AI

Kinda sounds like you’re talking about Explainable AI too. Very interesting set of fields, but I’m pretty sure they’re all having funding problems too.

I suggest you hold out for a Scooby-snack.

A day that will live in infamy! But in a good way. A day that will live in famy!

• Naked Lunch soundtrack
• Eraserhead soundtrack (especially side B)
• Nine Inch Nails, Ghosts

some “unofficial” replacements

• !streetart@lemm.ee… see !grasweeti@slrpnk.net, a lot of the same material (and is more active).

• !TwoGoobers@lemm.ee … see !relationshipmemes@lemmyis.fun, a lot of overlap

• !webcomics@lemm.ee … see !webtoons@ani.social for a partial replacement

deleted by creator

Regarding !martialartsmovies@lemm.ee, @klu9@piefed.social has created !action_movies@piefed.social to replace it and more.

Even thought about a comm themed, “stop buying new shit”.

!buyitforlife@slrpnk.net

(hey @sevon@lemmy.kde.social it’s this one)

Then I wanted to make robots but I went to a robotics company for a high school project and they explained engineers don’t build anything and the technicians don’t design anything.

I was affiliated with a robotics lab for a couple years, and I’m pretty sure that’s not true industry-wide. I’m mostly saying this for other folks who may be reading. Look into it first before believing what that company person said.

some of these are “ask” communities which sometimes turn into discussions

• !ask@lemm.ee
• !asklemmy@lemmy.world
• !askmeanything@lemmy.ca
• !casualconversation@lemm.ee
• !casualuk@feddit.uk
• !Dullsters@dullsters.net
• !dull_mens_club@lemmy.world
• !forumlibre@jlai.lu
• !general@lemmy.world
• !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
• !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
• !preguntalealemmy@feddit.cl
• !rant@lemmy.sdf.org

I have an HP Chromebook 11 that I was going to install linux on (iirc you have to open it up and flip a hardware switch to do so) but I ended up keeping Chrome OS on it. Anyway I mention it bc the form-factor is nice, it’s very small and light but still usable. Only thing I don’t like is the touchpad so I hook up an external mouse whenever possible. You can get those chromebooks for under $100 refurbished too.

Guess it depends on what your childhood was like. No way I’d want to go through that again. Personally I’d be happy to be around 25-28 again tho.

why talk about moths?

If an extinction-level event happens soon and all this info is stored in an EMP-proof bunker somewhere, future alien historians will say that the moths and the lamps represented how helpless we felt in the face of our certain demise.

When I looked through the list of lemm.ee communities I was subbed to, my first thought was: omg I hope JohnnyEnzyme takes this ok…

https://obscurebattles.blogspot.com/ - detailed descriptions of historical battles. @PugJesus@lemmy.world you might find that interesting. The guy does it for miniatures wargaming, but he’s former Navy Intel and he seems to know how to put together a brief.

Here are a bunch of “general conversation” communities, which is the closest I’ve seen:

• !casualconversation@lemm.ee
• !casualuk@feddit.uk
• !Dullsters@dullsters.net
• !dull_mens_club@lemmy.world
• !forumlibre@jlai.lu
• !general@lemmy.world
• !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
• !rant@lemmy.sdf.org

sure they can.
