Danquebec@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Luigi Mangione prosecutors have a jury problem: "So much sympathy"1·9 months agoI was living with about 10k CAD/y for a few years when I was single and I was mostly fine.
Granted, this was in the 2010s. And of course I wasn’t in Manhattan, as you can guess by the currency.
Now, I’m making about 70k CAD with a family (sole provider) and I’m just staying afloat.
Danquebec@sh.itjust.worksto Reddit@lemmy.world•AI bots on Reddit reaching the front page? I absolutely believe it1·9 months agoThey can produce high-quality answers now, but that’s just because they wwre trained on things written by humans.
Any training on things produced by LLMs will just reproduce the same stuff, or even worse actually because it will include hallucinations.
For an AI to discover new things and truly innovate, or learn about existing products, the world, etc. it would need to do something entirely different than what LLMs are doing.
Danquebec@sh.itjust.worksto Reddit@lemmy.world•AI bots on Reddit reaching the front page? I absolutely believe it1·9 months agoWait what. I had been on reddit for years and I had never been aware of this. You get paid for upvotes?
And I thought “karma” was just another word for “upvotes”.
Danquebec@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•how badly could a pelican fuck me up in a fight?2·9 months agoI reread the post replacing “pelican” with “politician”. I haven’t laughed this much in weeks. Thank you.
Even as an adult I don’t trust myself not to fuck up so whenever I do installing or partitionning, I always disconnect my drive that contains the personal files.
Danquebec@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•UN may remove Syrian rebel group HTS from terror list if conditions metEnglish3·9 months agoHe’s from the UN. All he can do are words.
Danquebec@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Russian state news agencies say ousted Syrian leader Bashar Assad is in Moscow and given asylumEnglish2·9 months agoI expect he may be used for counseling in matters of security, intelligence, ir as a general on the front, or as an officer responsible for crushing dissent. Or as Putin’s ophtalmologist.
Danquebec@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Insurgents reach gates of Syria’s capital, threatening to upend decades of Assad ruleEnglish7·9 months agoI’m surprised people forget ongoing conflicts.
Danquebec@sh.itjust.worksto Reddit@lemmy.world•Moderators Delete Reddit Thread as Doctors Torch Dead UnitedHealthcare CEO4·9 months agoI’m aware of the mockery for “slam”, thanks.
Now that you are telling I’m reading it correct, I understand it must be a figurative sense of “torch”. I had taken it literally.
Danquebec@sh.itjust.worksto Reddit@lemmy.world•Moderators Delete Reddit Thread as Doctors Torch Dead UnitedHealthcare CEO10·9 months agoMy first language isn’t English, and as I was trying to understand the headline, I thought “torch dead” might be an expression meaning, burning alive with torches or similar. So I was reading “reddit mods delete thread as doctors burn CEO alive”. The event described sounded much more brutal than it really was.
Danquebec@sh.itjust.worksto Science Memes@mander.xyz•Causes of Death in London (1623)English2·9 months agoI’m especially dumbfounded as I thought that before there was an important police force and a mature legal system, murders were far more frequent than after.
At the same time, it’s possible I’m imagining 1632 London to be more primitive than it really was.
