But of course - we’re looking for the scariest.
No, you can’t, and don’t try and gaslight me about it.
You’re either being serious or you’re not. You can’t change your intent based on the response.
And FYI, critical thinking is exactly what enables me to see through this, taking me from “maybe this guy’s just clueless” to “nah just a troll”.
So… was it a serious statement intended to promote discussion, or just a joke?
You can’t play both teams.
can you explain what controversial things you’re going to say?
Literally anything at all regarding Islam
Have you been living under a rock since september 10, 2001?
Then why did you say it would be controversial?
Don’t fucking play dumb.
Yes, I feel entitled to content people provide for free consumption. Because they would like it to be freely consumed. I have been on both ends of this (creator and consumer) and I 100% agree. If I release something for free, I don’t want some corporation inserting themselves between me and my consumers, to make money from content i released for free. And moreover, to then use my content as a method of collecting demographic information to sell and make further money… why is it “entitled” to be against this?
What about all the vital information on there? Education, news, etc?
This was a great read. Thanks for sharing your experience of your first computer.
No! Really! It’s not mine!
Drinking just isn’t my sort of thing
You’re making a stretch here. Language is not a representation - it is the thing being communicated. If you really want to get down to it, there’s some debate as to whether we communicate the exact same thing - qualia being what it is - but there is nothing shared beneath language for it to be a representation of (partly because of qualia, in fact).
This “different representation” is not an actual layer of meaning - it is just the mere act of recognising the language.
There doesn’t even seem to be any info of the kid’s alleged crime.
Firstly, written language can be represented in binary without any loss of information.
It’s still not language, though. It’s just binary.
Secondly, audio of spoken language can be represented in binary with so little loss it’s indistinguishable to humans.
Still not language.
written and spoken language are also just representations.
Of what? What does this need to be translated to for humans to understand it?

Humans work with language itself: letters, words, speech. Computers work with binary representations of language: just 0s and 1s.
Is English not your first language? This isn’t unclear at all.
You’ve taken it?
