Then it doesn’t make sense to include LLMs in “AI.” We aren’t even close to turning runs into propellers or rockets, LLMs will not get there.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•I've recently turned into a blocker.English
1·9 months agoI guess I just read /all, or whatever it’s called here, and find it super annoying when the feed is filled with 2-3-4-5 copies of the same post from one person, with separate conversations going on.
How do you read here, do you just subscribe to a few communities that don’t overlap with frequent reposters?

Buy European@feddit.uk•What’s the most sustainable way for Canadians to visit Europe?English
3·10 months agoWith basic sailing skills you could probably crew on a sailboat delivery across the Atlantic. I don’t think many leave from Canada or even the NE US, so low carbon would be to take a train farther South. Maybe Annapolis but more likely Florida. Look up the Atlantic Rally for Cruisers, they have a return rally in May-ish. A lot of boats will be sailing East at that time.

Mechanical Keyboards@programming.dev•Which keyboard layout do you use?
3·1 year agoSame, 20-some years on Dvorak and it feels good enough and way more comfortable than when I switch back to qwerty on other computers.

Technology@lemmy.world•“Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screenEnglish
1·1 year agoAppleTV is very easy, and what I did after Roku, then the Chrome stick added ads. I haven’t seen any ads in the AppleTV home screens.

Mechanical Keyboards@programming.dev•Programmers, what is your keyboard?
2·1 year agoI think I’m on my 4th Kinesis Advantage in 25 years. Dvorak, with an Apple touchpad taped in the center. I have the newer one – the 360 – but getting the Dvorak layout firmware dialed in is a project I haven’t had time for and so it still sits unused.

Mechanical Keyboards@programming.dev•So... is the IBM Model M the greatest keyboard ever created? Or has that phase passed now?
1·1 year agoLove mine, been using these for over 20 years and am on my 4th.
There’s so many friggin nerds sailing that it’s ridiculous. Who else makes so much so as to indulge in such a wildly expensive hobby?
Never mind the ultra rich nerdy boat names (Bayseienne, Steve Job’s weird thing, the sensible and utilitarian Google barge with all the toys, and Oracle guy’s toys, and on and on), there’s soooooo many more minor nerd boats with names like “Dream SQL” and etc.

CSCareerQuestions@programming.dev•[Potential regular thread] How happy are you with your current job?
1·1 year agoHappy. But skeptical. I like the people I work with, I have a ton of flexibility, and I’m so well paid that it’s a little weird. I like this stuff, and would do most of it for free. But the MegaCorp I work at has been tightening their screws with worker hostile stuff: removing benefits, changing pay structures, trying to force me to go to the office, and etc. All that changes how I look at what I’m doing. They are, of course, psychopaths. I always knew that but thought I found a comfortable little groove in the system to do things I like with people I like. Now… Less. There’s an undercurrent of coercion that makes me feel a little icky, and now I’m more ready to roll the dice on change and seeing what’s next.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Hulu quizzing about the ads playedEnglish
45·1 year agoThis is a brand lift study. It’s almost worthless: Hulu is paid nearly zero for it. I can’t believe they’ve stooped this low to scrape so little incremental revenue with such a customer hostile tack. Their product and analytics people must truly suck and completely lack awareness of counter metrics.
What don’t you like about your Framework? I haven’t noticed anything wrong with mine, but haven’t had it long.

[Dormant] Electric Vehicles (Moved to !electricvehicles@slrpnk.net)@lemmy.world•Volvo EX30 Is Crushing It in Europe: Is the U.S. Next?
11·2 years agoI really liked their electric XC40’s and tried to buy one last year, but … I just can’t figure out car dealerships. They had two on the lot, I had enough in my checking account, I go there on a Saturday morning, and … It was just a mess. The sales guy first said electric cars are dumb and I don’t want one, I actually want their biggest SUV, then he said he could only lease the electric cars (with horrible terms), not sell them. I gave up and went home to see if there is a way to buy a new Volvo online – no. So I bought my second choice (a Tesla Y), with an app, in about 30 minutes.
They lose in every timeline. The US would have nuked them.
