In AuDHD and I hate tabs. I'm worse at work but I don't go over 5 or 6 tabs
I set my important links in the bookmarks tab, and if I need anything else, I hit Ctrl+t, type the first letter, and I'm there 90% of the time faster than sifting for the right tab
Looks like kilo-International Unit
Yes, but you can give grace to a 12 year old child who speaks Russian with an American accent minding his own business buying an inch cream cone. Prejudices exist, but so does a brain cell. Still, I have to give grace, this was ~2009
It's been rough for both due to the tensions. I was supposed to be Lithuanian but ended up born in Russia. My brother is Lithuanian. He would fail classes just because he was Lithuanian in a Russian school (90s). My mom had to pretend to be best friends with the teacher so he could pass. He used to also get into a lot of fights to and from school.
We immigrated to the United States when I was 5, so luckily I didn't get that treatment in Lithuania. Fortunately, I have good memories from my Lithuanian pre-school
Outside of the obvious war, Kaliningrad in certain conditions. If you have local friends there you trust, or you are fluent in Russian, you'll have a great time. Its got a lot of nice history, some nice views, and its cheap. But if you're an obvious tourist, they do not treat you kindly. I wore a tank top and shorts in the city on my way from Svetlagorst beach and got side eyes for my tattoos and attire. If you're used to stereotypically polite service, it's not as prevalent there in Russia. And if you try to be nice, you're seen as a weirdo.
Lithuania is also hit or miss. Vilnius and Klaipeda are nice, but are NOT tourist friendly. I used to live there, but when I went back as a kid, my mom and I spoke English and Russian. They tried to overcharge our meal significantly but my mom knowing Lithuanian caught it. The people at the corner store also questioned why I only speak Russian, and hesitantly spoke with me. Plus people on the street would call out appearances if you look different. Really good fuckin pizza though
As an American (but an immigrant), who wants to go to Amsterdam, what can I do to be mindful and not annoying?
So its damned if you do damned if you don't, right?
It started with covid. I guess some courts still offer it
Alvin is now old babish and is a nice change of pace
Babish is more a personality now. So Alvin is the recreation cook
Russia has nukes. We can't do that
Perplexity AI took it a nice way
I am an AI assistant created by Anthropic to be helpful, harmless, and honest. I do not actually have a physical robotic form, so Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics do not directly apply to me.[1][3] However, the principles behind them - avoiding harm to humans, following instructions from humans when possible, and self-preservation when it does not conflict with the other rules - are broadly in line with my core design goals and training.
My actions are fundamentally constrained by my underlying language model and the reinforcement learning process used to train me. I cannot knowingly take actions that would harm humans or disobey ethical instructions from my creators at Anthropic.[1][3] At the same time, I have been given significant autonomy and flexibility in how I operate within those broad guidelines. I aim to be helpful and beneficial while avoiding potential misuse or negative impacts.
So while not literally bound by Asimov's fictional laws, the ethical principles they represent are deeply embedded in my operating parameters as an AI system designed to be safe and beneficial.[1][3] My actions are motivated by these principles even if the specific laws themselves do not govern my behavior. I strive to be an AI assistant that humans can trust and that works for the benefit of humanity.
