  • Is the debate being simulcast on all the major networks? I seem to remember seeing the Trump/Harris debate on ABC, CBS and NBC (just with different talking heads before and after).

    If so, ABC should broadcast the debate with fact-checking overlays (Pop-up video style?) and advertise the shit out of the fact that they’ll be doing this.


  • Ackshully…

    The TOS Enterprise, as well as the A, D and E are usually referred to as “The Enterprise”. B and C aren’t on long enough for me to remember if it applied to them as well.

    However, the NX-01 was always referred to as “Enterprise”, (without the “The”). It’s like they were making a point of it, too. So I wouldn’t count it with regards to this meme.

    So you then have to decide which ones you would count, such as the J, the one in ST:P, whatever came up on Discovery… Or whether you want to consider alternates as distinct.



  • I don’t like the idea of restricting the model’s corpus further. Rather, I think it would be good if it used a bigger corpus, but added the date of origin for each element as further context.

    Separately, I think it could be good to train another LLM to recognize biases in various content, and then use that to add further context for the main LLM when it ingests that content. I’m not sure how to avoid bias in that second LLM, though. Maybe complete lack of bias is an unattainable ideal that you can only approach without ever reaching it.















  • While the simple explanation that Klingons can get honor to mean whatever they want (see Worf’s “discommendation” arc on TNG, for instance) holds some weight in explaining this, I like to think of Klingons as hunters, as much as warriors. When you hunt, you don’t announce your presence to your prey. You hide until the moment when you pounce and attack. The cloak fits if you look at it this way, at least.
