Good for us as we wouldn’t exist without the world going exactly as it has (I guess unless you’re from a culture that didn’t get conquered/settled and has been quite insular), but imagine where technology would be if industrial civilisation had been continuous from so early
Sometimes it’s not good here. We only have 25 million people and we drive on the left, so we miss out on quite a few vehicles
AI tools are pretty good in Photoshop; they’re pretty good in copilot; Ukraine claims they’re good at guiding a drone to a Russian bomber (though they also hit decommissioned aircraft). I think you only see the use of less specialised AI used to generate low quality text and soulless images
I feel like there’s a bit of trying to scare the kid off from that life course and get married like a proper person in that letter
What, jessvj is not baffled? That’s an odd thing to study
I think you’re fairly safe here. People using AI tools professionally generally like them, only overuse and careless use are seen as bad here
Out on general Lemmy though you’ll get down votes for comments in favour of AI
Imagine getting that design past review
The insecurity of SMS is the inability of telcos to secure number porting. If someone wants to compromise your shit, they can easily steal your phone number, if your phone number is sufficiently public
One defence is to have a second service that is only used for authentication, and never share the number except to those providers that need to message you codes
It’s just marketing. Australia shares a lot of American culture and we still have car based utes, though larger vehicles are also becoming popular here
Maybe as autocorrect becomes more LLM powered it will get better at correcting spelling of similar words
And also Dr Frankenstein working on his monster, though he worked in a lab attached to his apartment in a city
Dr Frankenfurter OTOH worked in an isolated gothic mansion and made a much better man, not monstrous at all
I had to turn off dark mode for this to work well
My normal dark mode is “AMOLED black”. I also tested it with dark grey and it also worked. Higher contrast with the image’s background works better
You should be able to long press unwanted notifications and stop the system showing that class of notification or all notifications from some app
“Turn off” stops that class of notification from that app
Settings gear takes you to the notification section of the app that threw the notification and toggle any or all of that apps notifications
You can also get to the notification a couple of other ways:
I feel like it’s really hard for people who learnt after smartphones. When autocomplete gets it wrong they don’t notice
Obviously the way of remembering which is which is “you’re” is short for “you are” (hence the apostrophe) and “your” isn’t. But they also need to practice while keeping that rule in mind
English as a second language people seem to do better than first language users
I’m glad you’re trying and I hope you get past your anger
Thank you for going over that like you do with papers. I like to have my beliefs and positions challenged. I want to be the best me
So many of these people the YouTube doctors interview were so sick. Makes me almost feel like a ring in coming to the diet from keto being too hard and unwilling to go back to the standard diet due to being allergic to too much of it
I don’t think I want a product like this
Especially as I use a pan not a barbecue grill so heat pipes would make it hard to sear the meat
I don’t think it would be easy to use with frozen steak
Also there was no need in Italy and Greece. Britain invented steam engines because they needed a better way to pump water out of their mines, people worked out later that they could use these engines to power a cart, a digging machine, a rail machine. They needed mines for heating fuel due to the cold climate, they needed coal fired heat for their metallurgy
You need reasons to invent stuff (necessity is the mother of invention) and you’re not going to get much reason in a perfect climate with all the food you need coming from the sea and land all year
Britain already had rails for human and horse drawn carts
