I recently watched a video by Jason Pargin, about how pretty much all TV shows are Lost-ing it, due to how modern TV production is done. If you don't think they're Lost-ing it, it's simply because the writers are doing a good job making it up as they go.

Hmmm

I haven't watched many sitcoms recently. I felt like those pauses for audience laughs were often where they'd cut to other camera angles anyway (likely to distract from how unnaturally long the characters paused in the middle of their conversations)... But I don't have any concrete evidence to back up my feeling.

I'd be interested to see an edit of classic sitcoms with laughs (tracks or live), edited to remove both the laugh and the associated pause in the performance.

Yes, in the proportion of furries vs weebs.

The wording had initially confused me.

I thought this was about posts that got no comments, not about necro'ing posts.

Honestly, I think necro'ing posts is really only a problem when your forum software doesn't have many options for sorting the feed. Lemmy is more advanced; if you don't like necro'd posts, then just don't sort by recent activity.

He comes out and you miss your shot because you're blinded by a bright light he has with him

All computing is just shit tons of math operations.
That's the "artificial" part of "artificial intelligence", so I'm not really sure what you expect AI to look like.

I'm not a big fan of LLMs and I don't think they're intelligent, but if you're disqualifying them based on using math then nothing is ever going to satisfy you
