In the end it was all because of Eve and that stupid apple, or maybe the snake. Why was there a tree in the first place? Also was it really necessary to make a universe? Now that’s where the trouble really started!

IMO the way to prevent such a scenario from happening is not by blocking Meta, but by inviting equally large competitors to join the fediverse. The described tactic can only work if you have close to a monopoly.

They’re right though. Top of the line software for certain domains (CAD, photoshop) just doesn’t exist for Linux. As much as I would want it to be.

Reality: most tech workers view it as fairly rated or slightly overrated according to the real data: https://www.techspot.com/images2/news/bigimage/2023/11/2023-11-20-image-3.png

The paper I showed earlier disagrees

I think the use case is not people doing potato study but people that want to lose weight and need to know the amount of calories in the piece of cake that’s offered at the office cafeteria.

It needn’t be exact. A ballpark calorie/sugar that’s 90% accurate would be sufficient. There’s some research that suggests that’s possible: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2011.01082.pdf

Tbh, the article doesn’t really talk about the headline. Just some history and talk about Elon musk and Twitter. Not a convincing argument about social media in general.

Yes

What are you talking about?

There’s still the European Parliament. But yeah I guess he gets the job…

How come that one shitty device has a range of steps rather than a single number of steps?

I was pronouncing the una like tuna and could not figure it out

Tbh the other side is also anecdotal. There’s no stats here.

While cool and impressive, this was not a dense forest. Not dense nor a forest, which is way less ordered

I also agree bing is nowadays often superior to Google, they’re also better than DDG imo.

While it’s a good thing that Google gets serious competition, I don’t know if Microsoft is the best company for that role. In both cases the incentives are not necessarily aligned with the customer.

How is YouTube fucking over content creators?

I’d say that a measurement always trumps arguments. At least you know how accurate they are, this statement cannot follow from reason:

The JAMA study found that 12.5% of ChatGPT’s responses were “hallucinated,” and that the chatbot was most likely to present incorrect information when asked about localized treatment for advanced diseases or immunotherapy.

Do you think lawyers physically look at all 11 million pages generated? Surely not everything is relevant. If you would study 11 million pages for a case would you read everything or maybe would you use computer-techniques like “keywords filtering”? (This is mentioned in the article)

I wear masks but I absolutely hate it. Maybe if you work from home you don’t notice, but wearing that thing for 9-10 hours can be a real pain. On top of that you miss a lot of a person’s face, I had to meet a lot of new people during that time and it was hard.
