At the ML course at uni they said verbatime that they are plagiarism machines?

Did they not explain how neural networks start generalizing concepts? Or how abstractions emerge during the training?

I think the "Destitute" level should drop the case and replace it with a paperclip (to bridge the power button)

it's all of them

There are multiple justices taking bribes and telling us they have the legal right to do so

is this true?

I’m no security expert and the sensible thing to do is using a library instead of taking a class.

Counterpoint: "not knowing your libraries" + "blind trust in the maintainer" will give you stuff like this: https://bitbucket.org/snakeyaml/snakeyaml/issues/561/cve-2022-1471-vulnerability-in

(the thread itself is worth a read. But also very impressive is the list of big players who fell for exactly this mentality)

windows 11 suck ass I especially hate chatgpt

🤔

so far there is no significant quanum advantage, i.e. most things you can do on a quantum computer, you can do cheaper on a regular computer. Therefor there is not much value in quantum computing. Therefor I doubt we will see a significant surge in power-use due to quantum computing in the next 10 years

due to [...] quantum computing.

for me it was on a pi5. maybe the amd64 was what made it work for me? idk.

As usual, the US is already one step ahead: they cut out the middleman by skiping a step.

snappy it feels versus the official rpi OS

I blame the desktop manager. Once I ditched the default von on the pi, and replaced it with standard gnome, the pi became almost as snappy as my regular notebook.

in general: standard debian should be exactly as light-weight as arch.

If everyone stops buying from Amazon, those people could get jobs at any of these companies, where people buy from instead.

Amazon has replaced a lot of jobs. When amazon goes away, it in turn will get replaced by something else.

Tja.

but then they can still set colors, that we don't. Or at least there are some colors they can differentiate between, that we can't.

e.g if they have a receptor for orange, yellow and red, then can differentiate between pure orange and orange that is 50% red and 50% yellow.

So both is true: We have more colors (because of brain-things), but they still have some colors, that we don't (because of receptors).

thanks

When you buy something from them, you’re also supporting those people

I am sorry, but this take is just insane. You do not support amazon workers when you buy from amazon.

trickle down does not work. Companies like amazon will not use additional revenue to increase the conditions of their worker.

In fact, the opposite is true: the more market power amazon has, the worse it will treat its worker (and also the 3rd party sellers, and even the buyers)
