Use the sanitize and steam settings, tho that might melt the shitty plastic on most toilet brushes… But at least you don’t have to worry about living bacteria
This is why i love that movie, there’s no evil person but one who doesn’t want the restaurant to run by someone who can’t even cook nor run a business, and he doesn’t want the restaurant to shut down by health inspection. The crew quitting over it signified the seriousness of this issue. Linguini almost ruined the restaurant if not for Remy.
Nah. Confit byaldi is ludicrously haute-cuisine, needs three-star levels of manual prep work. The tag line is “Not everyone can be a great cook – but a great cook can come from anywhere”. And so can a good recipe or idea, that wasn’t ever new in French cuisine it’s been riffing off peasant recipes for ages, Escoffier did plenty of that.
Good food isn’t special in the sense that everyone so inclined, with enough obsession, can learn to combine aroma, to cook things to point, all that stuff, which is how excellent home cooks are made. What sets haute cuisine apart is the time and labour invested in every dish for increasingly diminishing returns.
Because of the health inspector, yes. The restaurant critic, now disgraced for having talked up an “unsanitary” restaurant, is eating at the new place, happy as a clam.
The social status and renown that comes with haute cuisine indeed is unimportant, it’s the food that’s important.
Social status and exclusivity plays into it in practice, for sure, in a right-out fetishistic sense: Like there’s chefs who have onions chopped so fine, using a special technique (not the usual chef technique you see) that they melt in the sauce, very labour-intensive. Now, having the onions melt into the sauce is a nice and valid thing, however, why in the everloving fuck aren’t you using a blender. Even if there’s a difference, which all my experience tells me there isn’t, it’s going to have such a minimal return on investment it’s utterly pointless but as an exercise in exclusivity.
Also I like my potato mash chunky but that’s another topic.
For that case we need to separate the two protagonists, Linguini and Remy. For the ending, i guess it’s fair to say Linguini ruined the restaurant as he invited rats into his restaurant and to cook, but if we look at Remy as a separated entity, then the restaurant closed down due to Remy’s and his family. The instance where Linguini almost ruined the restaurant is when a critic were served the same pot of soup he ruined, Remy saved the soup, thus saved the restaurant reputation.
I didn’t mean to suggest that. Simply that he was a business man doing business in a capitalist society. If you lose the talent of your main chef, what do you do? You ride his name and legacy for as long as you can.
I remember Gilbert Gottfried at a Friar’s Club roast. Can’t remember what the actual joke was, but I remember he lost the whole audience, and then won them back with a spontaneous telling of “The Aristocrats”
Kudos for Carlin, who made fun of government propaganda. Maybe not so much for Joan Rivers for making fun of FDNY widows.
(I’m not a boomer, though. Or a millennial. Or really that edgy anymore, if I ever was…)
Is an LLM machine learning? In ML you are usually predicting a value based on values in the training set. That’s not really what an LLM does it seems. Maybe it uses some ML under the hood.

No, that’s just a small part of ML: Supervised learning. There also is unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning and a whole bunch of other things in machine learning; It’s a way bigger field than just that.
And about your question: Yeah, LLMs are a prime example of machine learning. Very simplified, they use a kind of recurrent neural network to take inputs of arbitrary lengths and give outputs. They are trained on huge loads of data (text) to auto-complete the data (so that they get e.g. a sentence as input and give a second sentence that’s likely the next sentence in the data as output). E.g. “Today I went” as input could generate “to school.” as output.
ChatGPT is based on these LLMs like GPT-4 in the way that the start of the input data is commands in human language for the bot how to behave. (E.g. “You are called ChatGPT. You are not allowed to […]. You are helpful and friendly.”), then adding the user input. The LLM then generates what the chatbot described with the given characteristics would give as an output based on the training set and it’s returned as the output by ChatGPT.
Idk if you had intelligent talking people-rats like in the movie then being excluded from whole industries just because people think they’re icky would actually be pretty bigoted.
They aren’t icky simply because they’re rats, they’re ugly because they piss and shit everywhere.
Bigotry and such is unjustified because the people it’s targeted at aren’t the bigoted things people assume about them. They’re normal, same as any of us.
Rats are unsanitary. Even pets shouldn’t be in a food prep area. I’m not sorry for any rat furies out there.
I didn’t. Intelligent talking people rats are still rats, the rats in the movie behave entirely like normal biological rats, just they can “talk” and stuff too
So intelligent talking people-rats can run a five-star restaurant but can’t understand the concept of hygiene? Why? Because “Rats are unsanitary”, apparently. Sounds pretty bigoted. Sounds like you found a big-worded sciency way of calling them icky. You’re a scientific ratcist.
If they have to live in the walls and don’t have sanitary living conditions that’s a societal issue, also due to deeply entrenched anti-rodent bigotry.
I can’t wait for Ben Shapiro to clip this and use it as evidence of the crazy woke left.
