ies in this case. I hope you don’t want to know why. ‘y’ usually (but not always) becomes “ies”?

Difficult and stupid aren’t the same thing. There aren’t many goals on the same scale of human progress.
And the attempt would likely teach us lessons about our own atmosphere and maintaining it. Learning the failure conditions of a biosphere and how to avert disaster seems extremely relevant for the upcoming decades.

It does seem like the best way to do level 1 tech support.

The big US national parks had a reservation system for a bit. It was great.
If I get a ticket, I’ll go and it’ll be a pleasant experience. If I don’t, well, I can take a tour bus in or I can just not go.
I appreciated that systemic fix, even if it sucks when you don’t get a ticket and get to drive in exactly how you want. (You can still enter on foot or public transit.)

So they’ve provided you a solution to your problem, but you don’t want to use it to solve your problem, and you’re mad at them because you’re still using the thing you don’t want to use.
Got it.

Yeah, nuance exists. Weird, I know.

How do I put this.
AI isn’t exactly the cause of the rise in the price of hardware. Only 1/6th of the purchased Nvidia cards are actually in data centers. Same for the memory.
We’re not using it.
What’s really drumming up all the prices is that the billionaires are convinced that AI is going to replace tons and tons of people. It’s not. It’s the insane corporate hype that’s doing all the damage.
It will replace some, sure. The same way the electric drill replaced carpenters. One electric drill does not replace one carpenter. That’s not how that works. Instead the carpenters can work a bit faster and their job is a bit easier. It’s worth buying and it’s worth using, but it doesn’t really replace a person. Accountants didn’t disappear as a profession when spreadsheets were invented.
There were books written in the 1980s about how household appliances raised the standard of cleanliness. Turns out people change clothes more when cleaning clothes doesn’t involve a washing board. And I don’t think Roombas replaced that many jobs either.
In particular, I think this is a thing that will happen for software development. I don’t think it’ll reduce the number of developers we need. I think the standards for development will just be higher. All the front end stuff in particular is going to get easier, and you won’t need as many frameworks. We’ll especially need just as many devs, if not more, in the short term. Someone’s going to have to fix the mess all these companies are going to make after they’ve fired half their devs and tried to just vibe code everything.

To expand on that, the prosecution wouldn’t have an obligation to reveal that evidence to the jury, but they would have an obligation to provide it to the court and/or defense during discovery. And, you know, that seems like something the defense would both use and request if it were missing.

- Comment on Lemmy users who say that Lemmy users are smarter than Reddit users 1 month ago:
If you really want a community to take off, you have to basically schedule yourself to make content there.
The lessons from every group I’ve grown (and haven’t) is that consistency is key. You have to develop the habit in other people, and it might take a long time to start.
If you want to be a Twitch streamer, for instance, you have to do it at the same time every day.

Kind of. I don’t think the Internet will ever return to the heyday of Reddit.
Once governments and groups recognized that social media actually does move public opinion, that was the end of good, anonymous social media.
The ways to bring some of that back aren’t great. A community where everyone’s verified is much better, but it’ll be quite different from the Reddit days where you’d have (usually real) ridiculous subject matter experts chiming in on random threads.
You don’t get that with a small, verified population. And when you don’t have verification, well forever now have effectively psyops intending to influence you.

Nvidia is the stock.
Good luck with the timing. The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.
- Comment on Silly goose 1 month ago:
That might be true. But it’s important to note that we want the world to be more kind to everyone, and not universally unforgiving.

stickers that say they accept Monero
If you’re holding the speculative asset you have incentive to promote the use of that asset.
How many people do you think actually pay with monero?

I was unsure and checked the rules there.
- You can post about power trippin’ in any social media, not just lemmy. Feel free to post about reddit or a forum etc.
You should make a Roku community on Lemmy if there isn’t one already and post the fix there. Yeah, maybe nobody will see it, but maybe they will. Especially if they saw the content on Reddit and can’t find it anymore, they might look here. And that’s the only way we’re gonna get that shit off of Reddit.

I wonder how good AI is at deobfuscating code. It seems like the kind of thing it might be good at.
