I knew those goa’uld weren’t gone for good!

I believe most quit due to not wanting to do the stressful job without pay during financial shutdowns, but either way yeah there’s way fewer

But no real knowledge of when what will be done, they also announced a rollout of an AI system. Plus there was a blip with weather radar earlier. It could be anything really, or everything

Or it could be the recently announced phaseout of their floppy disks and they’ve announced they’ll be using “more AI” (whatever that means). It could be either of those too

A lot of the people who could develop workarounds moved to Lemmy. We are the open alternative.

Literally nothing, he wouldn’t have been able to do any of that without the board being, well, on board, and they chose a board member to temporarily replace him.

Where’s that gif of Wreck it Ralph feeding pancakes to the rabbit when you need it

Can always suggest it to the moderators. It’s been incredibly useful I found on ours.

That spaced repetition is what I use Anki for. I just copy and paste whatever and make a new card. It takes only a moment. There’s a million other apps that do spaced repetition for free, all slightly different.

When I joined mine I literally just googled “‘language I was learning’ learning Discord”. Found an invite link very quickly, and joined.

On ours we have a bot that will privately translate messages for you. I don’t know if they all do but I know at least a few do because I’ve shared the code with other servers.

There’s a lot of language learning communities on Discord full of learners and teachers doing the exact same thing but for free.

Genuine question, what makes Lingx worth the cost versus an Anki deck and one of the learning communities?

But if using the AI perpetuates the worst side effects, then it’s not actually helping people in the long run, it’s making things the tiniest bit easier in the very moment at the expense of their future. Doesn’t sound helpful to me

That’s because in poly you don’t get to be an abusive power tripping megalomaniac, of course he’s not going to choose that way

We’ve had tools for fuzzy searching files for ages. Didn’t need to steal all human work and burn the planet to make search a tiny bit easier

One thing to be clear when asking this question. Are you asking about all AI or do you mean current LLMs? Those are two very different things and will get you very different answers.

AI - can be good, Google’s alphafold worked on new medicine, there’s defect recognition models running in factories that increase consumer safety, and so much more. All of these have existed for a while or are still in development.

LLMs - well, I’m yet to see any actual net good from them in any way shape or form.

I’ll start by saying I’m ethically against LLMs, but I see this as not an LLM thing but a corporate thing.

A large part of those unfound security flaws is companies really don’t prioritize revisiting old code. They don’t consider refactoring for stability a worthwhile endeavor at all. So much so that I’ve seen managers insist the proof of concept code get shipped. LLMs have kind of helped raise awareness of that, but not really because it just gets called a security flaw. If companies didn’t chase maximum profit I guarantee a large chunk of what we’re seeing with people patching right and left wouldn’t be a thing.

LLMs have only less to this vulnerability avalanche because people are firing the things off left and right on old code. The solution isn’t to keep doing that, it’s to shift culturally to not shipping until things are properly developed.

Filing the articles of impeachment while the majority still clearly would not support it, whether before the election or after, sounds 100% like jumping the gun to me

To be fair, they jumped the gun big time on this and the new progressive people we elected aren’t in office until January. A Republican pushed this impeachment now specifically as a propaganda tactic so people would get confused and think the new Democrats we elected are just as bad as the old ones when this inevitably failed.

Shouldn’t be that expensive, the distance is already decent so they shouldn’t have to hat clip or anything crazy, isolate from the floor by resting it on rockwool.

You’re looking $400 bucks probably

Careful just adding rockwool to an outside wall though. Potential mold factory if vapor barrier and such isn’t correct as it’ll trap moisture and heat.
