@rrustema020 @notjustbikes that's a ridiculous truck that should never be road legal anywhere... Still, no matter what this driver would be driving, I wouldn't want to share a road with her anyway. Whoever drives at this speed in a parking lot is just waiting to kill someone

@DamonCrowley@mindly.social who uses AI slop to criticize AI slop?

@theodric This has to be an LLM response... even leaving alone this horrible security advice, the whole response is trying to do the exact opposite of what the OP asked!

@GustavinoBevilacqua @futurebird @ModestinoSycamore @benroyce @dgar @geckzilla Oh, toothpick is a good one for the small end! I was thinking about a bic pen diameter for the 1cm bracket

@EveHasWords @theodric Yeah, maybe I was giving too much merit to the Microsoft employee who posted the reply...

@JorisMeys I've been very annoyed by Posit's extreme pivot to AI, but I hadn't even considered this dimension of the problem! RStudio is the defacto standard IDE for teaching R, and having an AI assistant built-in really makes things pretty difficult not just in an exam context... no one needs one more source of variability and mess while teaching a practical.

@_elena Ladybugs are predators, and the favorite food of most species are Aphids. Do you have any house plants that might be infested with aphids or other small bugs? It might be hanging around because of that. It's rare for insects to need water, especially in a controlled indoors environment, unless it's really warm and dry.

@futurebird I guess you're aware that species keys like that have been at the foundation of IDing all kinds of organisms for many decades. This format is pretty much unchanged, I've used some that were from the first half of the 20th century, but I have no idea when they were created. I quite like the very simple way they made it interactive in the link you shared! The fact there are photos/drawings definitely helps as most traditional keys are pure text and you have to know the body part names.

@tante Truly great piece! I especially like that you mentioned how widespread it's getting in research and how that undermines the foundation of knowledge creation and transmission. One other problem with the AI is THE FUTURE narrative I feel is very important is how many people in the left embrace the criti-hype instance, assuming the text extruder is way more powerful/useful than it actually is, which makes it much easier to build this fatalist narrative.

@solar_chase@mastodon.green This should be especially bad in places that have mostly fixed pricing for consumers, right?

@FrancoisPrague@mastodon.social @arstechnica@mastodon.social The Czech Republic is probably one of the most car centric countries in the EU... I live in a smaller town, and there are multiple RAMs/Silverados parking in the surroundings in this panel buildings neighborhood. That, the total suburbanization of the villages around town and the horrible new residential neighbourhoods with fenced buildings and no public transport is destroying the pretty good urbanism the town had.

@ZachWeinersmith@mastodon.social already sold out!

@diegoe I see where you got the inspiration for this, and I love the parallel!

@ct_bergstrom@fediscience.org by the driving style, they believe they're playing GTA

@tslumley@fediscience.org not sure what to make of it, given lm works only with numeric responses but glm accepts categorical responses. It's still a bit weird that lm doesn't even give you a warning that it converted the variable

@RMKrug@hachyderm.io @coatless@mastodon.social I'm not going to bite into this discussion, so I'll just make it clear that I wholeheartedly disagree with this approach.

@mcc@mastodon.social @a@fedi.lawngno.me so much this! My cynical side can't shake away the feeling this was all an attempt to weaponise the obvious outrage and viralization for some organic critihype... The blog post from the developer targeted by the takedown was a bit disappointing in this sense, buying the narrative in a bit of an uncritical way

@ratsnakegames@mastodon.social oh, don't give me such bad news! Could you point me to any discussion about this here on Masto or in their repo?

@ratsnakegames@mastodon.social I skimmed through the whole page and it's so depressing! Is there anything left?
