What I think you are also seeing is AI sucking at some things and doing better than humans in others.
AI is pretty great at adding unit tests to code, for example, where humans do a just-OK job. Or in writing code for a very direct well scoped small problem.
AI is just OK at understanding product nuance and choices during larger implementations, or getting end to end coding right for any complex use cases.
“now that Jews aren’t powerless like they used to.”
Well, they really weren’t powerless. Thats a myth. Ever wonder what craziness led to genocide in Germany?
Well lets dig into that because its usually glossed over in schools and just chalked up to racism in a sentence or two. It centers around The 1933 Anti Nazi boycott, which was driven globally by the American Jewish committee (AJC), against the Jewish peoples of Germanys wishes. German jews feared reprisals during a time when things were basically looking up for them, but were extremely charged and difficult because of racist tensions in Germany.
The (American) AJC launched the boycott as a response to harassment and intimidation leveled at German Jews after the Weimar republic formed in the wake of Germanys loss in WW1. In the Weimar republic Jewish people gained a lot of power via a new state mandated equality and ceased to be locked out of various positions and industries they had been in the past, rapidly becoming powerful members of german society. This caused social tension within the german population already stung by loss of a major world war and paying reparations during a difficult global depression. While the tension was nasty, it seldom led to violence beyond physical initimidation, rocks through windows, marches and slogans.
The boycott caused Germany to suffer a loss of 25% of its global trade which infuriated and further radicalized Hitler, his industry partners, and his followers. Newspapers declared that the Jews of the world had declared war on Germany. The genocide which followed was about hatreds and long standing biggotries and privelage, yes-- but it was also about trade, as wars often are.
Security to some level is important, but whatever idiot at msft sold exec on “user access control” as a standard service really effed windows hard. Security types have a role in the world, but a lot of them are authoritarian idiots. One of those idiots wrote this patch, and msft was so used to UAC problems in everything, they just let it on through during testing.
Maybe instead of food we can be paid in ozempic (to reduce appetite) and a very very tiny amount of food. all humanity would become very skinny, and then theres less health care costs due to obesity.
I should really be in charge here.
The concept of acting like a human being is for the peasants to worry about.
Robux and pedophile-bucks.
We’ve had smoke on the horizon for a long time now but the fire never comes. We’ve all learned that smoke and screams is just normal.
Yeah man, we’re going to have AI everything, we’ll all exist in a metaverse, and everything will be run from tablet computers that we can access from our car as it drives us to and from work, where we will work way fewer hours. Employees will still have to physically show up to work I’m afraid.
Are arse reamings something they buy and sell, or a form of currency for ceo’s? What about female CEOs? (not that its a huge problem-- maybe those few old-guard female ceos just pay you in money).
.world was the biggest one. I have since switched to one that doesnt have abusive zionist mods in news and worldnews (looking at you, jordanlund), but I still come back to .world periodically when I dont see much new content on the instance I like. Mods moderating to support their own biases can ruin a site.
I saw a bunch of articles in the past few weeks about seniors needing to work more years and the idea of retirement in the US “needing to change”. Presumably because we are tossing out big chiunks or our labor force and probably social security will be gutted by the republicans.
Yeah. Pretty fair analysis even though I dont enjoy that conclusion. I thought even capitalism was better than that. I would love to go back to my ignorant beliefs in the good of the common man again. And the basic instinct toward good of my fellow Americans. But you cant go backwards in life.
Between “no child left behind”, epstein island involving pretty much the entire monied elite and political class, ICE raids, and cancelling health care and food aid for kids, I dont know what “for the kids” even means anymore in the US. Its almost openly a joke anymore.
Celebrating nvidias big investment in Israel didnt help either. Daily killing of innocents continues while he ships pallets of money over. He’s not unique in tech CEOs being arseholes, but he’s definitely another trash human being. The world would instantly be a better place without most tech CEOs.
If my 3090 or mobo dies, for instance, I can send it to a repairperson and have a good chance of saving it.
While throwing out working things is terrible, the cost of servicing a motherboard outpaces the cost of replacing it. They can possibly still charge you 200 dollars and tell you the board cant be fixed, right? I think the right balance is that you observe the warranty period, try to troubleshoot it yourself --and then call it a day, unless you have a 400+ dollar motherboard.
when browsers overload the url field to act as a search field, can you blame people for not knowing the difference? To the users its become a distinction without a difference.
They say that whats tolerated is whats encouraged. Browser software companies have encouraged people to be uninformed about the tool they are using. Easier to mess with them that way.
They have dumb people too, same as any other population of humans.
Hard to imagine a more disgusting headline for Nvidia. I hope they go broke.
Could be a lot of reasons. A big one i see working at a large company myself is that AI needs to draw from a lot of data to do its work. A huge amount of contextual data too. A company like MSFT inevitably needs to provide AI with a walled-off curated set of data, and prevent any of it from leaking. Its AIs will not have the same amount of data an AI can draw from outside MSFT.
