without watching the video - google search is falling apart because there’s a lot of shit content, a lot of bad articles being written.

and there’s a lot of bad articles being written because there’s a lot of authors that just want to make money from advertising, without actually caring about the content. in other words, it’s advertising’s fault that the quality of content is dropping. and ironically, it’s mostly google’s fault that advertisement on the internet got so big as it is today.

IMO Debian is already pretty far middle-ground. The packages are new enough for my personal usage.

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).

Yes, there should be a book filled with these stories or something.

this is such a 4chan answer

two conspiracy theories in one! i love that community.

Cooking rice is a notoriously hard problem (and for that reason I recommend noodles instead) but my tip is:

• Don’t (!) do the 2:1 thing where you mix 2 cups of water with 1 cup of rice. Some of the water will boil off and the ratio will be distorted, except if you close your cooking pot, in which case it begins to foam like crazy and give you something to clean up
• Do just fill a large pot with lots of water and make it boil; then when it boils add the rice and cook a certain time with the pot open. I’ve made the best rice this way.

Did you know that at lemmy, they have special discounts, where you can get two wisdoms for the price of one upvote?

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 disagree. There’s a lot of reasons why people don’t have children, including:

• emotional devastated youth (abandoned by parents, addicted to smartphones, misunderstood by society)
• people can’t find partners for this reason
• too much stress from too much work
• wages are barely keeping up with inflation, and I project they will in fact not keep up in the long term in the US due to missing labor protections and decreasing demand for labor.
• rising cost of living because politically, nobody really cares about the population.

edit: sorry i realized i made these points US-specific but you were talking about russia, sorry.

To raise their motivation to come to work, right?

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!

Yeah you can host your own blog on the fediverse. I’ve started similar attempts, in fact, such as !aniki_blog@feddit.org . 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.
