birdwatching is so easy. you just look at a bird and that's it. no further steps necessary, you won. there are birds everywhere and you can look at them
Virtue signaling, guilt trips, and wage theft is what corporations do best, that's how they become a big company... 😒

@catsalad Hi how can I get my gift, the link is not working
Per sfondare le barriere del disagio, oggi abbiamo una immagine inviata via mail, che è una foto di una stampa cartacea di uno screenshot di un telefonino, il quale visualizza probabilmente una email...
@Yaku Ma fa molto caldo lì da te? Altrimenti non si spiega...
According to my comment section I am now a paid Ukrainian propagandist.
I'll add that to being a supposed paid propagandist of China, the EU, the US, Apple, Google, Microsoft and whovever else I make a video about that vaguely challenges people's preconceived notions. I just wonder where my yachts are from all the propaganda money I have supposedly received 🥲
phishing training really doesn’t spend enough time on “how to structure your mass corporate communications in such a way that your employees won’t conclude that you communicate exactly like scammers and still expect a reply so they’d better assume scammy emails are legitimate”

There's been some talk about the price hikes for copilot and the cost of tokens actually worrying software company management, but how are things going for all the businesses now running their customer service through chat bots that get things wrong? Are they seeing a cost increase yet?
If your success criteria for technology is measured in dollars and cents you’re going to end up with billionaires every damn time.
And where you have billionaires, you can be sure fascism is not far behind.

Here's the response to my #FoI request
https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/information_relating_to_guidance_2?nocache=incoming-3429727#incoming-3429727
There are no minutes of any meeting where this new anti-open-source guidance was discussed. Lends credence to the suggestion that a non-technical manager made this up on the hoof.
All other requests denied on security grounds.

@mattiem No no, I didn't mean that 😁 - my brain explodes is a way of saying that it demands a lot of focus and attention, it needs me to do the right thing without enough feedback or build-time hints to help me notice what will happen when everything runs. I feel confident I understand the stuff :)
@iamkonstantin hmm I’m now more confused. I’ll admit that I do not understand DI systems in general, but how can there even be an ambiguity around where things run? It must all be encoded in the type system regardless of which DI framework it is.
@baldur There are lots of indications of LLMs "assisting" in the writing process of this blog post.
- a lot of em-dashes
- "It's not A. It's B", where it doesn't provide any value and is just fluff
Also the whole blog has a lot of red flags:
- only 3 articles published in relatively short succession
- no real person or name attached
Oh the irony...
@janriemer First, those aren’t LLM indications. Those are standard writing tools that predate LLMs and are in LLM output because it’s trained on it. Secondly, I disagree with you that the uses of “it’s not A, it’s B” in this post is fluff and doesn’t provide value. It’s commenting on a bubble that’s making unfounded claims. It’s genuinely hard to comment on a series of false claims with corrections without using that structure. The preceding post on a different topic doesn’t use the structure

Playing Scrabble at home, we allow place names as long as the player can point to it in at atlas when asked, to build geographic knowledge. Can't tell you how many times Iran has helped us out, what with Zanjan and Qazvin and Qom.
