no it’s just a name I use instead of my real name

I love Home Movies

The ethics violation is definitely bad, but their results are also concerning. They claim their AI accounts were 6 times more likely to persuade people into changing their minds compared to a real life person. AI has become an overpowered tool in the hands of propagandists.

I honestly want to know what the game plan is for the 100 men. Like do you plan on knocking out the 400 pound animal with a spin kick to the head or what?

Also, it’s only cheap because huge companies are losing billions subsidizing it. The reason factories aren’t entirely automated is because few companies can justify spending a billion dollars to fully automate their assembly line. I work at a factory where one machine outputs product single file and the next machine requires the product come in double file. The company pays a worker to stand on the line and split the output from the one machine into two lines.

I figured that would be super easy to automate but one of the engineers explained the company only gives money to do something if they can prove the money will generate a huge return, and automating that part simply doesn’t generate a big enough return to justify the cost. If a machine breaks down 1 hour a day they’ll fix that before replacing a worker. A machine can generate $100,000 an hour, so it being down an hour each day is a loss of $100,000 per day. Replacing a worker saves the company $250 a day. Replacing the worker that splits 1 line into 2 lines isnt a priority. Keeping machines at 100% uptime is what the focus is.

Definitely! But as another comment said, there’s no guarantee a teacher will actually reframe the problem into something interesting. They can just give you work sheets and have you do them over and over and over. Math then becomes a topic that relies heavily on the teacher’s ability to engage with students compared to other subjects.

I think it’s a topic that just doesn’t interests most people, especially children. Where I live, solving problems like 10 - x = 4, solve for x is taught to 10 year olds in grade 5. How many 10 year olds would think this is interesting?

In comparison, grade 5 science teaches cells are the building block of life, energy can exist in forms like electrical and light and can transform between them, and matter has states like solid, liquid, and gas. It’s stuff that ends up being naturally more interesting.

You’re allowed out of your cages? Jealous!

Pop!_OS, suspend. Rebooting causes Steam to forget about my second drive and I need to reselect it. I don’t need to do that if I use suspend.

It looks like a picture of bullet train on all the states that voted Democrat and a picture of a Nazi concentration camp train on all the states that voted Republican.

I personally used it daily for years. There was more to the site than neo-nazi threads on /pol/. Anime, manga, kpop, and vtuber threads were some of the most popular and they were all highly moderated.

I enjoyed the lack of username/post history meaning no worshipping prolific posters or doxxing people by going through their history to find a post where they talked about their work.

No upvotes or ranking system meant good and bad posts weren’t labeled. You figured that out yourself without other people (or an algorithm) telling you how to feel about it.

Frequent thread deletion meant the site was constantly a snapshot in time. It’s like going to a bar. You’re not going to know the conversations people had in that bar yesterday. It might not even be the same crowd as yesterday. The vibe is created by the people there at that time and it’s constantly changing.

The site had barely changed how it functioned in 20 years. It was honestly one of the last bastions of the old internet before everything became about “engagement” metrics.

Congrats on asking AI to recreate this meme from 2 weeks ago https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/24293631

I feel like there’s always been a culture of boys and young men who didn’t respect women, there’s just never been podcasters actively promoting it.

The internet allows idiots to broadcast their message worldwide and social media promotes the most controversial stuff in order to drive engagement and, more recently, to promote a culture war that keeps the populus divided.

Easy, just name the second kid Nadir.

All four gospels in the Bible recount a story of Jesus being brought to Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor, by Jewish leaders who accused Jesus of crimes and requested his execution. The story goes that Pilate had to do what the leaders asked but was not convinced Jesus was guilty of anything and decided to give him a chance at freedom. The Jewish holiday of Passover was happening and it was a tradition for Roman leaders to release a Jewish prisoner. Pilate offered a crowd of Jewish people the choice between freeing Jesus or a man named Barabbas (who is described as an insurrectionist against Rome and a murderer, not a thief). The Jewish leaders in the crowd turned them against Jesus and had them call for Barabbas to be released. Pilate is then said to wash his hands to symbolize the crowd is responsible for Jesus’ fate and not him.

Historically, there’s no evidence Romans ever released Jewish prisoners for Passover and Pilate himself is described as a ruthless tyrant who did not hesitate to execute Jewish people who did not recognize the authority of Caesar. There’s no chance he would have freed someone who killed Romans, nor would he have been forced to execute someone he didn’t want to execute because Jewish leaders requested it.

The Bible story was probably meant as an exaggeration of how much Jewish leaders didn’t like Jesus and his message and how people followed corrupt leaders over the actual son of God. The meme is pointing out people seem to have missed the point of the story and would do the same thing today.

You can learn those things any time. Do you mean your goal is for your income to be from games/webdesign/art? In that case you can always join a company. If you mean you want to independently create and sell your works it’s going to be very tough. You’re essentially starting your own business and most business startups fail.
