You might also be interested in the Panopticon.
In humans, there’s good things and there’s bad things. But most of it is actually in-between.
If you take out everything bad, that satisfies you for the moment. And then you go on, looking for further progress. You take out the almost-bad, the somewhat-bad. In the end, it leaves only the good. But that is not enough for a human to live on.
Constant surveillance leads to burnout and extremely high stress-levels.
I hadn’t read it before, and I thought it was interesting, and the article is still as relevant as it was back then. I thought many others missed it too. It’s also pretty well written.
People are in denial. AI is going to take programmer’s jobs away, and programmers perceive AI as a natural enemy and a threat. That is why they want to discredit it in any way possible.
Honestly, I’ve used chatGPT for a hundred tasks, and it has always resulted in acceptable, good-quality work. I’ve never (!) encountered chatGPT making a grave or major error in any of the questions that I asked it (physics and material sciences).
RT systems are all about responsibility.
When you’re driving a vehicle, the vehicle has a lot of CPUs inside that help the steering.
When these CPUs pause - for even 0.4 seconds - something bad can happen. Somebody can get seriously injured, or even killed. So it is very important that these systems never freeze or pause for any reason. That is what RT is all about.
It’s only a matter of time until Google Maps will enshittify, too.
I’m worried that she makes herself too much of a target by being so active.
Otherwise than that, fuck Israel, yeah.
We could have separate instances for the normies and for the femboy linux users. And then, everybody can choose which instances to block/follow.
Tbf, democracies kinda always suffered from this problem.
The italian long-term prime minister Silvio Berlusconi was a comedian before going into politics. And so was english prime minister Boris Johnsson. In other words, they were used to catering to audiences, instead of having technical training. (IIRC)
I disagree. Such a thing is not feasible. In 1500, when the printing press was developed, Martin Luther tried to raise all people in the entire population to be priests, because “now that they have books, they can educate themselves”. Obviously, it didn’t work. I think most people just aren’t made for higher knowledge, and we should accept that fact rather than push people through a high-pressure high-stress levels school system.
I want smaller games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less, and I’m not kidding.
I agree. Wholeheartedly. I think it’s just so obvious how quality dramatically takes off when the people creating it feel safe, sound, and economically stable. Financial Security (UBI) drives creativity probably more than anything else. It’s a huge win!
Oh that’s great news! We’re accelerating our development towards burn outs! Wait …
Yeah you can host your own blog on the fediverse. I’ve started similar attempts, in fact, such as [email protected] . I intend to expand it, but it takes time getting used to this type of personal web space.
normies
Honestly some normies would help us talk about something different than US politics, linux and being trans femboys. Honestly, we’d have some diversity in content. I’d like that.
Btw how do we stand on just blatantly copying and reposting material from reddit? I missed the announcement talking about that.
Thank you for this well-thought and balanced viewpoint. It took me 19 days to process all the information.
So basically, I was wrong when I assumed that inverters had an efficiency of around 50%. That misunderstanding comes from the phrase that “filters in the inverter eliminate high-frequency components in the PWM’s output”. I thought they discard that power. But that’s apparently not the case. So the efficiency is more like >95%. So that’s good.
The issue I have with this that basically, now users need to “pay” (with compute time) to speak their mind. This would be similar than if you had to pay to vote in political elections. It favors the rich. A poor user might not be able to afford 20$ additional electricity bill a month, but a large agency (such as state sponsored, corporate agendas) might have a 1000000$.
I don’t think that would work well, because I knew no one when I came here.
IMO Debian is already pretty far middle-ground. The packages are new enough for my personal usage.
