  • It's literally just Twinkle Twinkle Little Star with some extra notes

    Twin-kle twin-kle li-i-i-tle star how. i. won.-der. what you are

  • POV? So someone is sitting on the cuckstoel watching this?

  • A radiology tech once told me that I had exceptionally long lungs. She had a hard time getting them all in the view of the radiograph

  • 🅱️ U S S Y

  • Since US guys are like 68% circumcised, Jewish folks get circumcised for religious reasons, should be easy to determine that US guys and Jews are like 2x+ as autistic as guys are worldwide

  • Ye i gotchu fam

  • I am also learning to code and have been for years casually. In fact, I can program basic stuff in a couple languages.

    I do not believe I am harming a single person by making scripts for myself and small team of highly non-technical folks by using AI that allows me to produce better code while still being able to do my day job (which is not programming).

    In fact, I learn a lot by using AI and having to do research. I learn more than I would on my own because being able to use LLMs to assist me has allowed me to take on projects that wouldn't make sense for me to attempt if I had to spend weeks to get to the same outcome.

    I am well aware of how LLMs work. I have read numerous articles, white papers, talked to ML engineers, etc. I know their limitations pretty well. I think they are much less capable than almost all laypeople I have spoken to about it.

    All that is to say: LLMs have some legitimate use cases. They are wasteful, inaccurate, etc etc. But they have use cases. People are hyperbolic in both directions on them.

  • Haha yeah texas dumb

    Also though, not in terms of IQ. Texas is exactly average, which makes sense because it has a massive population.

    Also the mensa cutoff is top 2% of general population or like 130.

  • You see:

    1. Ramen expensive bc bad economic policy
    2. want cheap ramen tho
    3. ???
    4. youre a genocide voter
    5. you deserve the dictatute (?), foreigners coward
  • Yep that's what it means. If you call someone a pogchamp, that is what you're saying, but the word itself comes from the emote

  • American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). They are the ones playing defense against fascism and violations of civil liberties by the US government. This includes immigration, freedom of religion/expression, lgbtq rights, abortion rights, you name it they've done it.they are responsible for getting nunerous illegal bills/acts/laws rescinded. They do great work. The sort of work that is foundational to getting the US government on track.

  • They're better than cast iron for some things in my experience. Acidic dishes, eggs (scrambled always stick to cast iron for me). But cast iron's heat retention is superior, providing a more even cooking surface on electric ranges - good for searing meat and most other applications.

  • Yes this. Literally just handwash with soap and water. Season occasionally (clean & then scrub with steel wool to get an even surface, very small amount of oil/lard spread over pan very thinly, oven at 260c/500f until totally dried/hardened, repeat a couple times).

    Oven safe, nonstick, durable.

  • Yes. Although way fewer than I'd expect. Would recommend. Easy and cheap to grow yourself.

  • The politically illiterate oxymorons are always really funny to me.

    "Radical left democrats" / "Radical liberals" (my fav)

    "Marxist Fascists"

    "Fascist antifa thugs"

  • No, literally nothing like what I said. It could still be garbage if you didn't understand or review the output. That's why you understand and review the output.

  • I understand your perspective, but I do review the code. I also do extensive testing. I don't use packages I'm unfamiliar with. I still read the docs. I don't run code I don't understand.

    Again, the quality of the output really comes down to the user and the application. It is still faster for me to do what I've outlined above and it makes automating some tasks worth it in terms of ROI that otherwise wouldn't be.

  • Because they're honest men and women. With rights—to work. To be useful. Not toys for corporate interests. They have a RIGHT TO WORK! RIGHT TO WORK!

  • Most of the article is paywalled, but the main points seem to be that AI work is less creative/lower quality & people spend more time fixing it than they would have making it.

    That has not been my experience. On the one hand 'less creative' - that's true, I don't think LLMs can be creative. But they can summarize information or rephrase/expand on things I say based on provided context. So I spend much less time on formatting and draft creation for text based documents. I can have an agent draft things for me and then I just tidy up.

    As for low quality work products, again, not my experience. I use agentic AI regularly to automate simple but repetitive business tasks that would take me much longer to write code to automate. I am not an engineer, I am an analyst/consultant. I can code some things, but it is often not worth the time investment (many tasks are one-offs, etc).

    A friend of mine made an AI agent using an agent that can interpret pictures of charts and find supporting data in our databases (to find out what other teams referenced for their analyses)and/or make a copy of the chart and make modifications to it. Or it can create seaborn charts from text descriptions using data from our database. Now a team of non-technical users can make seaborn charts without having to know python. That is pretty powerful in terms of saving time & expanding productivity.

    It's easy to shit on the tech, but it has legitimately useful applications that help productivity.

    Edit: downvote if you want, but it is ignorant to say that LLMs only produce garbage. It very much depends on the user and on the application.
