That set of options sounds basically like micro’s behavior by default…

Even if that had been what that commenter meant, being willing to die (at someone else’s hand) for something you believe in is not even remotely the same as suicidal ideation.

The statement is “smarter”, not “possesses more information”. None of the things you listed (LLMs, libraries, Wikipedia, etc.) have any capacity to reason.

Username checks out.

I think “100,000s of dollars” is cursed too. If you want to use that phrasing, just spell out “hundreds of thousands”.

I’d bet it actually simplifies as least as many things as it breaks. Basically all computers already keep track of time as a count of seconds since a UTC epoch anyway, and then do timezone conversions on top of that.

Based on the context, I’m assuming you meant condemn, not condone…

This is not it. What an abhorrent and sadistic take.

Here’s a handy tip for the future: if you find yourself writing a sentence that goes “I really hope […] poor people […] suffer greatly”, maybe reconsider posting it.
