There is the idea of an AI that writes a new AI to be better and that this could trigger a type of singularity.

This idea is almost everywhere I look but the counter to it seems so obvious I feel I must be missing something.

What we call intelligence is often one of 2 things; computing power, the ability to make large calculations faster than something else; and predictive ability.

There may be other intelligence like creativity but in this context I don't think its role is very big.

Lets assume the most powerful AI in existence is able to create a much better AI.

Certainly we know the ability of that AI to make larger and faster computations will be limited to its ability to consum

I open it up, spend 2 minutes clearing those annoying notification indicators but have absolutely no idea what any of it means. There is just so much junk. What the hell is the voting thing? Or the purpose of the betting on teams? I guess its all designed to separate us from money but I would pay for a version of the game without all these annoying pointless events that I never get anything but temporary skins from.

The knife in question is a Wusthof Clasaic Ikon Santoku.

We have a cheap honing steel but arent really sure how often we should use this or how often we should need to get the blade sharpened? Do i need to oil the blade when not in use? We're both kinda dumb and lazy and kinda want to know whats needed to keep this knife edge sharp without wasting a huge amount of effort.

Thanks for any advice you can give.

If the seasons ends tomorrow it looks like this:

Wildcard Round

1 Astros (bye)

2 Yankees (bye)

3 Indians Gaurdians (3 home games vs #6)

4 Rays (3 home games vs #5)

5 Mariners (3 away games vs #4)

6 Jays (3 away games vs #3)

ALDS

1 Astros vs (winner of #4 vs #5)

2 Yankees vs (winner of #3 vs #6)

I feel like 3 away games vs the Gaurdians is going to be much easier than 3 home games against the Rays or Mariners.

Also facing the yanks for the ALDS is definitely preferable to facing the Astros.

This playoff format is incredibly dumb.

The enterprise theme song is awesome.

"Faith of the Heart" appreciation post

I've gone back and watched all the seasons multiple times. The only theme song I can sit through every time is the Enterprise theme.

I know it felt really dated when it came out, but man that tune is catchy as fuck.
