Or one of their friends. Or their kid’s friends.

bane_killgrind,

Thank you and your apprentices for quantifying this threshold.

bane_killgrind,

Alright guys, time to get more copies of slay the spire

bane_killgrind,

That will be charged after January 1st 2024.

bane_killgrind,

The things you are suggesting are adding complexity and therefore cost.

It does take a higher level of expertise to adequately abstract away engine specific limitations and requirements.

It’s again an even higher level of expertise and therefore expenditure to account for performance issues with these abstractions.

bane_killgrind,

Which they will, because we are all bad at security.

bane_killgrind,

Fucks talking about real estate and unrealistic expectations are my real radio. Awful compared to VC

I just want to say that I'm so happy that people are taking notice of privacy concerns in cars

Mozilla released their studies, and I’m seeing a growing number of posts on the Internet about cars and the privacy nightmare they entail. I remember how this issue wasn’t talked about earlier because “just buy an older car” was still prevalent. I’m so happy that people are taking notice. Thank you to this community...

bane_killgrind,

Multiple billions no. There’s 1.4 billion cars after a casual google, and considering how many people have cars as a convenience or multiple cars I think it might be closer to a single billion people need cars.

bane_killgrind,

I’d rather not have a bunch of separate meme communities. I like varied content.

bane_killgrind,

Oh, yes please it’s absolutely dying. You should find somewhere new to post asap, this is not negotiable.

Please leave.

bane_killgrind,

If porn was only categorised by gender and orientation that would be great, but it’s not. There’s a million obscure communities for every single aspect of every fetish, and there’s usually zero way to include everything but feet and piss. It takes so much effort to find something fresh because you have to intentionally look up skirts, or lesbian domination, or voyeurism or what have you.

Maybe something you’d like is in feet, because of a brief under the table socks on tease, and that’s just a tragedy because that’s just fine.

If it continues, the pupil is expelled from the school

I don’t agree with this. A child of an emotionally unstable parent needs consistency and support.

If it’s bad it goes to court.

bane_killgrind,

You can literally photocopy every single page out of a book at a physical library.

It’s not the paradigm, it’s the convenience and ease of access.

bane_killgrind,

Coptown sounds like a great SNL skit.

Enter smoky dank bar. All patrons are Popo. Bike cops play pool. All four are white, clean shaven, and wearing helmets and aviators. Detectives are at a table with handlebar mustaches and lanyard badges. Beat cops in vests are jawjacking near the bar, that the commissioner in dress uniform is tending.

Enter Snoop, blunt in mouth.

bane_killgrind,

This would be an inversion of the Killing Floor novel. On the surface, this little town is terrible. Rampant police brutality, destitution, economic opportunities in the town frustrated by NIMBYs, a public easement to a national park is fenced up… Through pacifism, de-escalation, and empathy Snoop turns the town upside down. The town square is turned into a public garden, he provides therapy sessions to some of the police officers who are convinced to change jobs. When he finds out the national park isn’t accessible he helps a resident file an injunction in court against the properly owner, and by the end of the movie there is a vibrant tourism industry staffed by newly pacifist ex-cops.

bane_killgrind,

No

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benford's_law

Look at the logarithmic scale. This law has to do with number sets in the wild, so apparently the scaling is flat over the set of data they examined. If you look at the distribution of the number sets over the logarithmic scale, they are evenly distributed. If you looked at the same numbers on a linear scale, they would become more and more sparse as they grow in size.

bane_killgrind,

No problem!

So if you have a small amount of something, you’ll have maybe 2, maybe 3, or 4, or 5, or 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 or so. If you have a medium amount of something, the numbers might be 20, or 30 ish, or 40 ish, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 100ish, 110ish, 120 or so, around 130. Larger amounts of stuff end up being 200ish, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000ish, around 1100, 1200 something, 1300

All the numbers I’ve mentioned are about evenly spaced on this logarithmic scale. You can see that a bunch of them start with 1 just because of how big we think they are! It turns out there is a math reason for this, instead of just being about the weird way humans think.

bane_killgrind,

Transistors at a point were a thousand dollars each. If you know anything about historic pricing for computer components you would know that anything new will be inordinately expensive because of the cost of custom components, new assembly processes, and custom tooling.

bane_killgrind,

one guy spent three weeks doing something no one needed done because he didn’t have the presence of others to remind him about what really mattered

So management is relying on the workers to self organise, instead of providing clear direction on deliverables and the quality of those deliverables.

Sounds like the labor cost of quality management is being offset by travel costs incurred by the workers.

bane_killgrind,

Is this happening

There are a bunch of articles about it. Here’s one about it in general

nytimes.com/…/artificial-intelligence-google-bias…

And one with a few examples of ai used in criminal justice

geeksforgeeks.org/5-algorithms-that-demonstrate-a…

bane_killgrind,

Is this happening?

More badly trained AI.

bane_killgrind,

This is an opportunity to learn how web services work, at least.

bane_killgrind,

Well I hope he’ll accept a holoscan for measurements.

Why would my parents always enter the BIOS when booting when I was younger

Basically around the 2000s we had a WinXP computer and each time I wanted to use it, either my mom or my dad had to turn it on. However they had to strike the key to enter the BIOS. Everytime when booting the PC. Then they would exit the BIOS and so Windows XP would boot normally....

bane_killgrind,

Bios was not set up correctly, or it did not detect the keyboard and was set to fail into bios in that case.

There was no real standard of behaviour that was adhered to for early PCs, so different hardware acted very differently. Standards that were adopted like USB were often implemented in incomplete or incompatible ways.

bane_killgrind,

Wants the point of a decentralised platform if most of it’s users are on a single instance.

It’s so that users have a choice of joining different instances. If .world is particularly well managed and provides amenities for users and has the capacity, there’s no reason that new users shouldn’t join.

The junk communities in every instance are a problem.

bane_killgrind,

Well you are on the money, nobody wants to manage inventory.

bane_killgrind,

They can take my back door by force

bane_killgrind,

cases of two infants who developed chronic borate intoxication after their mothers repeatedly dipped their pacifiers in a honey-borax solution, thinking the borax was a safe antiseptic (it isn’t).

Wtf

bane_killgrind,

Same, they’re stealing our acronyms!

bane_killgrind,

“is it” is the whole verb, and “is it not” the unabridged reciprocal or whatever the term is.

bane_killgrind,

It’s not being creative. It’s generating a statistically likely facsimile with a seperate set of input parameters. It’s sampling, but keeping the same pattern of beats even if the order of the notes changes.

bane_killgrind,

They are the same difficulty level, sure, but that’s like saying f(x) and f’(x) are at the same difficulty level. Coming from one to the other in a process is the difficult part, and the code offers instructions to follow this process.

r/selfhosted is still rising, WTF? Come to Lemmy!!!

Hi all! I used to be a daily r/selfhosted lurker and a bit active user. Since the Reddit saga I thought that r/selfhosted would be one of the first and bigger community to move to Lemmy due to the IT knowledge of all of their users and the sensitivity about self host/privacy/open source, but I see that not only the community is...

bane_killgrind,

Soon.

bane_killgrind,

Defederation isn’t sabotage. It’s a feature for healthy communities. Anyone that is interested in discussions on either defederated community, will create an account for both.

bane_killgrind,

It’s the old, stay in bed with the devil instead of sleeping in the cold.

bane_killgrind,

Really mobile apps need to make multi-account easy, problem solved.

bane_killgrind,

If I sing Klingon battle songs it doesn’t make me a Klingon either.
