i don't see the point in deleting my Twitter account, i just go long periods without using them depending on my mood the very format is useless for anything other than flame wars and bait, culture wars and the occasional announcement -

India perhaps, in the long term, could challenge the US directly - but the idea that Vietnam or Thailand would openly challenge the USA in a hot conflict is laughable culture is not the reason these people are leaving China, but an open hos

well, that would mean this kind of task is moderated away, not necessarily that it isn't chatGPT4, which I believe they openly advertised as a joint operation

I was going to comment the exact same thing I'm asked to sign in way too many times already, at least give me a hint of what I'm supposed to get in exchange or I'm going to err on the side of closing the tab

yep I think it about both, which is why I stopped using Windows many years ago and MacOS more recently it's becoming more and more unbearable to use them even just part-time for testing purposes, etc recently I'm more concerned ab

isn't Bing chat just some version of chatGPT4 with some extra moderation?

I'm talking about tuition in certain countries, for CS and other degrees as well. Its cost has spiralled out of control for some reason, but its value proposition certainly hasn't and it faces further challenges down the line.

if I were a teenager these days, I'd be more worried about the vasts amounts of money required to get a credential that may not be worth a damn in a few years time I wouldn't be worried about learning things that may become obsole

idk about that I mean, all of that is grand but you remain for, for from the metal in all these instances and even in assembly you cannot go under several layers of abstraction with modern architectures in the days of 6502 and Z80 compatibl

let's not overly romanticise it though the vast majority of people with access to computers in the 80s didn't harness the opportunity to be able to understand a lot of what was happening that was always going to be the case, and s

I think the article is basically about the opposite of romanticising blue-collar work. It's laying out how apprenticeships are already producing white-collar workers. In fact I don't think the existence of blue collar work is very

out of all the reasons, IMO that is most anachronistic given the way that both Universities and society at large have changed away from these dynamics - and given also that the need for that personal access has also decreased dramatically o

yep, drawing hands well requires an understanding of the underlying anatomy that is more apparent than most other salient features hands are obvious to most people, but there would be many features that an AI would require a vast training s

by muyuu 4y ago
they're both pretty flawed but v5 is better it still doesn't seem to respect anatomy when it comes to hands particularly, perhaps an artefact of not paying attention to hard constraints that are not visually self-evident

It's a tough claim to say that modern software development cannot be done with a language without HM typing facilities as first class, when most software development is done without it.

I was unhappy with my answer above right after I sent it, but that's pretty much how it goes in 2023 speak. Back in the 90s my professor would have failed me for saying that, as he felt so strongly that Smalltalk has no types and tha

I don't appreciate the criticisms in the article made to languages that have problems which are artefacts of their popularity. Some of these problems are merely cosmetic, which doesn't mean they are to be dismissed, but the very c

Not that I consider Google to be a benchmark in this matter, or relevant to the conversation, but it's not a fair comparison. Android support, at least as it pertains to function and security, lasts a lot more than the average Android

Lemmy doesn't seem to offer anything to me. It probably offers something tangible to certain groups with opinions that are not well represented elsewhere. The fact that it's federated under the hood is not a feature that would mat

I know Microsoft well enough, I've been using their products since the 80s. It's probably the only company that has sunset products on me as I still used them, twice.
