Machine learning is a technology that I can only see making the world worse. Not because of silly doomer AGI fear mongering, but just because it sucks and most of its applications are about replacing expensive, competent humans with cheap, crappy robots. And I don't think it'll get better. Add capitalist garbage and military use and you have a steaming pile of turds.

Vergo@mathstodon.xyzGot nerd sniped by @acegikmo when I found out that "if a cubic polynomial has three real roots, the roots can be thought of as a projection of the vertices of an equilateral triangle. That triangle is constructed from the roots of the first and second derivative of the polynomial"
Here, an equilateral triangle rotates with a constant velocity, which defines the roots of the cubic equation. Two cubic polynomials are then drawn using the given roots.

There's been some confusion lately about the validity of this post, i've since edited the original post to include more information but edits don't always federate so i need to lay out everything in a new post for extra clarity.
Eve Summers is a known groomer and abuser, she used to be part of my friend group. What started the original Eve drama in the first place was this thread made by her ex that layed out damming evidence against Eve, which you can read here:
https://web.archive.org/web/20230714172620/https://weirder.earth/@moxen/110710360718905024
I can also tell you from personal experience since i knew Eve at the time of this post, she used to be a friend, but then i cut her off when this came out.
I hope this adds extra clarification for people who aren't aware of who Eve is and just saw this post as nonsense.

also the "common association" blocks are absolutely ludicrous. heck, you may as well block every instance because "oh they associate with x asshole which associates with y asshole so they're also an asshole"

encthenet@flyovercountry.socialGood to see that California is looking at passing a bill to allow striking workers to receive unemployment. This will help ensure that management comes to the table to negotiate in good faith instead of hoping to force the union to take a worse deal because they are starving.
