orcs on Max, Mad Max. I think they should also switch from the unsafe oxygen to the government approved breathing mixture of putin's farts and healthy sulfuric acid vapors.

you must be new on life. Easy? What if the plane is replaced after the ticket purchase? Who is supposed to maintain this csv file? There are tons of ticket resellers, are there APIs? Etc. I don't work with airlines, I do provide systems in logistics and transportation management, nothing is ever easy.

we are on a technical site, supposedly. The work required to ensure that every single seat is marked 'window but not really' vs 'window' and then all of the plane schematics are adjusted according to every single airplane is insane and may not even be technically possible. You are buying tickets through a system that doesn't know the exact layout of that particular airplane, it knows the model. The layouts change because airlines replace seats and may change the number of rows and how the rows are aligned exactly against windows and doors, etc.

I am saying this is ridiculous to sue for this, because it's clearly way too complex of an issue, just like most other real life issues, they are not 'black' and 'white', 'democrats' and 'republicans', etc.

This is nonsense, what if it is not a window but a door instead, should you be suing based on a technical name? Window seat is seat adjacent to a wall, aisle seat is a seat adjacent to a corridor. Then there are middle seats. I got 'window seat' many times, where the window is not directly in my row but it is somewhat between rows, so what? It's a name.

never mind subscription, how about turning a car into a one armed bandit, a slot machine, instead of coins you insert your credit card and 'pull the arm', if you get 3 of the same, it does what you need it next, the breaks work or the steering wheel turns :)

If ruzzian terrorist putin arrives to Alaska and instead of immediately arresting and throwing him to jail and then offering ruzzia to start actual negotiations Trump meets with him to discuss anything at all, I believe this will mark the end of the USA as a nation altogether. You can then forget about your very concept of laws, don't bother, there is nothing, just emptiness and pointlesness.

I routinely listen (and watch) anything that is not music at 1.5, but I find that in the last year or so I went up to 2.5, sometimes 3, rarely 4. I definitely do not fit the definition of a young American though.

I am smug enough to surround myself with people smarter than me who can also handle themselves. You are clearly do not fall into any of these categories.

I did say this though:

I did try to 'remind' the LLM what it was supposed to know anyway, it couldn't work even from the newly provided list.

I understand that humans can no longer beat chess engines, I am not a good player, I dabble. I also understand that LLMs have no real memory or game state, etc. Asked ChatGPT5 to play a game yesterday, I set up a physical board, it drew ascii board and used annotations. For a little while it was OK, maybe the first 15 moves or so. It wasn't beating me, it was balanced at first, however it started behaving as a drunk would. Forgot how pieces move, forgot where some pieces were, forgot that it was white and would tell me that it is white's move instead, couldn't redraw the board from the list of moves, I pasted all of the moves, it couldn't draw an accurate board, basically fell apart on me after a little while. When things get too complex and require either actual thinking or specialized algorithms and databases it failed. It is not intelligence, just a poor simulation.

imagine, I don't surround myself with employees who would throw a temper tantrum when presented with any challenge. They can try and fail, they can present an opposite scenario or whatever, as long as they don't go ape shit crazy I work with them. I have fired a few people over the last decade who failed at this.

See, I wouldn't hire you, you just went ape shit over absolutely nothing. First of all I never ask really irrelevant questions in my interviews, however I do pose scenarios that are obviously linked just to the job description itself, I want to see if the candidate can handle himself and how he thinks, more importantly I want to see him or her handle the interview.

Not a chance. I have around 960 people right now, I only participate in 3rd interview for a few positions, BAs, PMs, things like that. It saves me untold amount of time when a person goes off like this during an interview because he doesn't like something this severely, I will never hire a person like that, not a team player, I don't have space for snowflakes who cannot handle a little bit of a curve-ball or an odd question without going nuts.

It is the only reality, my point is related to the story at hand, which proposes launching people into space for hundreds of years, where they will die obviously and they *may* decide to breed and have offspring who will at least have an explanation as to why their parents and grandparents, etc. decided to move from this planet in an attempt to find something else. If there is no story there is no reason for them to continue either breeding in space or continuing their journey rather than turning back or doing something else entirely, once they are off this planet there is nothing anyone here can do to prevent the people there from making other decisions.

funny, because it is true. The living never cared about the fate of their offspring, that is why they exist. Once species starts caring, it stops existing, which is good, that is what should happen once you stop putting next generations into this reality because this reality is miserable. This reality is miserable because it is full of people who are given instruments to make it miserable, instruments like voting. This instruments in the hands of the people cause reality to get worse with each passing year, since we consistently elect people who set agenda driven towards the lowest common denominator in every category. We get the worst outcomes due to us being stupid monkeys on average and we get this with an ever increasing efficiency of robotic execution, especially now driven with AI.

The only reason to move to another planet is a iron clad, rock solid way of governance that does not rely on voting and removes humans from government roles completely. I cannot imagine what other justification would someone accept for forfeiting their lives in space this way except for escaping the stupid miserable reality we are so busy building on th8s planet.
