Recently I shared a link to a YT video with audio from Feynman, turns out it's GenAI, I felt shtty about it. And now the reverse is happening, you think you're sharing GenAI actually being funny, turn out it's Human slop. Wha

I probably will, I use AI extensively, but mostly when I can't remember tedious syntax or suspect something can be done in a better way. And that work well for me... If I go too much towards vibe coding, the fun is sucked away for me.

Had a similar experience recently, set up Claude code, wrote plans, CLAUDE.md etc. The plan was to end up with a nice looking hugo/bootstrap/ website. Long story short, it was ugly and didn't really work as I wanted. So I&#x2

Btw, LinkedInLunatics is pretty funny at times, thanx for the tip (although I admit I don't get some of them really, so perhaps I am naive)!

On this topic. Do WiFi signals contain time (unencrypted)? If so why does my oven not pull time from the air and needs adjustment every 2 months? If not, why are APs not defacto time beacons for all sorts of non-smart appliances (and clocks

Come on, certainly the "spirit" of the "training" is to learn to disseminate phishing emails from real ones using subtle ques. Not to learn how to write an email filter. Nowhere am I saying that I agree with the chosen m

Thanx, I don't consider myself PMC, but, I guess that's the internet of today, slap a label onto anyone and anything based on ~160 chars. I guess lyu07282 is what I have taken to calling a "Judger". Always labeling, alwa

Hmm, never been there, but it never feels good to be lumped in with some group (especially when they have lunatics in the name) instead of receiving feedback that may point at errors in judgement. I'm generally considered knowledgeable

Hmm, mixed feelings. Sure you are being clever, but (and I don't know the state of art science wrt effectivity of these fake phishing emails), you are defying a measure that was taken by management to try to make the company safer. Sur

Is this a Chrome/Edge thing? Or do privacy respecting browsers also do this? If so, it's unexpected. If Firefox also leaks this, I wonder if this is something mass-surveillance related. (Judging from the down votes I misunderstood

I'm ok with that for sure. But how many people are we talking?

Yeah, in my country oat milk is now taxed as a juice, of course milk isn't. So the plant based alternative is now 2x the price of cow milk. Thanx Milk industry.

Well, yeah, but who are you to decide what I do with my body? I'm not hurting anyone. (Nice to meet you, I'm the advocate of the Devil.)

It's definitely "not great" for you. But there is also not an entire industry spending big bucks trying to get you addicted (and it sounds you do it every now and then, so that's not so bad). So there is a difference imh

It's a real challenge for a society based around personal freedom. Same goes for addictive apps. I feel the conflict within me.

.. And we know MS is used as a political tool (ie see their past with the NSA, and the whole business with the International Criminal Court), ie Linux is not, at least not "willingly".

Indeed, but that was not FOSS but MS365.

Imo we do this all the time :) But, perhaps it is important to recognize that those models are simplifications. It's easy, probably tempting, to project a group of humans onto one axis. But it's wrong, you don't know someone

That is thus all solely your interpretation. I think it is very dangerous to make assumptions about people's internal worldview and judging people on that assumption. In fact I think you have just expressed quite well what I object aga

I agree. I just want to tell you that those people are an exceedingly small minority. To deny another human being the rights you enjoy is imho the same as denying yourself those rights (because I, as a 3rd person, see both people as equal,

"Concerning society" is important here. We do not codify the use of FOSS in any laws. At most we have decided that people can make up licenses and that we agree to adhere to the terms of any creator stated in licenses. We don&#x27

For one, I think that the people you have put the "extreme" label on, are not as extreme as you think they are, and indeed could be quite agreeable when you'd seek them out and sit down with them over tea and try to communica

One can recognize the importance of defining processes for how decisions pertaining to a soceity are being made, and adhering to those, while, at the same time, trying not to judge views other than yours, or simply trying not to engage too

Let me answer you with 2 other questions: Is this line of thinking going to make things better for future generations or is it not? How important is it to work on defining this boundary, compared to working towards a less polarized society?

by teekert 9mo ago
It's about governance of society, about how decisions concerning society are being made. About what processes we adhere to. About agreeing to follow those process together, instead of resorting to primitive things like violence.

It used to work quite well. Perhaps together you can think of a cause to the rift, and try to actively fight it instead of each other. Start with commonalities, not differences. I think it’s important to, at the very least, never stop try
