Information comes drop by drop.

Currently the government is trying to put all the blame in a single human error. But multiple systems that shouldn’t had fail in a well maintained system did indeed fail.

The problems with high speed trains in Spain are more than evident. Two massive fatal accidents are the most dramatic ones, but there are countless of non lethal problems every day.

The workers they are trying to pin the blame on are overworked to death, they doubled their responsibilities without giving them more people to balanced it. The workers had complain multiple times by formal letter that this amount of exhaustion and overwork was leading to security problems.

There is a systemic problem that has a lot to do with lack of funding. The reason of the lack of founding is more in the air, but the previous Transport Minister is going to jail for corruption, and the current one while currently has no open causes is close to too many corrupt politicians I don’t trust him not to have taken public money thar were supposed to go to train maintenance and keep it to himself.

This is incredibly sad, because it puts the country in a very hard situation. These corrupt politicians are the current alternative to the alt right. The alt right and the right (which is also alt at this point) is going to win by a landslide, but it’s very very hard to justify the vote for these people when these things keep happening.

For myself their current response is going to determine if I go to the polls on November or just go straight up to build resistance networks against the future fascist government. But if the Transport Minister keeps throwing under the bus overworked and understaffed workers, I’m not going to vote for them.

Won’t somebody please think of the investors!?

the most incoherent piece of code you have seen in your life, taken directly from the Book of the Death

The OG blackbox

The forbidden frosted sugar.

It has happened enough times to me being really aware of removing batteries of any device that does not see constant use

They’d be unlocking characters like Tekken

These big websites are all AI generated now.

I don’t even see the point.

Why the hell would I want to go to your site to read the output of an AI. If I would like to do that I would go directly to ask the AI myself. It’s stupid beyond measure.

For the few people being able to have access to those lot gardens, maybe.

The big thing is when you run the numbers.

The minimum amount of lang needed to feed a person in optimal conditions is around 1000m².

In a city like Madrid each person has available around 100m² and in that space it goes all the housing, public spaces, services, streets, etc.

How much space could be taken from everything else to create urban farming land? It’s really hard to think that it wouls be enough to even amount for more than a few percent points of what it’s needed.

And we have to take into account that all urban space dedicates to farm won’t be usable for anything else. When you try to universalize it the numbers are just really hard to reconcile.

Yes! We have some of them. But the area and capabilities of the terrain doesn’t give nearly enough for actual food purposes.

You can have a few good tomatoes harvest, but nothing that could actually sustain people.

Spain.

I’ve been trying to find it but no luck for now. I will quote again if I find it!

Is this better or worse that the emulation option that already existed?

Back in uni I had some teachers that had actually done a scientific study on the possibilities of urban food growing, and the results were that it was unsuitable for anything more that just a recreational activity.

I partially agree. If forced by stupid management results would clearly be worse.

Also people using LLM as search engines have a lot to do with internet entshitification. Surfing the web have become so obnoxious that asking an LLM the answer to something is easier.

This have two obvious conclusions from my point of view. First is that the best scenario would be a not entshitified internet. Second is that when LLMs, specially the big ones owned by big companies, get their dose of entshitification, users will be back on square one of not having a good way of extracting information out of this massive sea of information that we have built and which should be much easier to navigate.

Not really true.

LLM valuation in the market is aimed at several things, making unskilled people appear skilled is the smallest of them.

The most valuable position in the market right now is as a substitute of search enginesm

The second most valuable position in the market is as a tool to speed up work for already skilled people.

And I would argue that the third most valuable position in the market is a bot tool to substitute human iteration.

Unskilled people doing slop might be the most visible face of AI as it’s very annoying but it’s a minority of it’s market, just a very loud minority.

Some humans cannot own knives responsibility. It doesn’t mean I have to cut the pineapple with a spoon.

That blog post is just a bunch of insults to anyone not agreeing with the writer without actually giving any elaborate or truthful argument on why is not just a tool and it’s always inherently “evil”.

Some arguments made can be easily disproven. For instance the climate change one.

They main point of the post is that “no matter how you use LLMs”. But then the argument given here it’s highly dependant on how you use them. The amount of environmental damage of LLMs completely depends on which LLMs you use, how you use them and how often you use them. This just here it’s showing the irrationally of the blog author.

But it goes one, next point is economics. Which is also 100% dependant on HOW YOU USE IT. Not all LLM are made by big evil corporations, and there’s nothing in the technology preventing it being made by anyone.

For a blog post whose main argument is that saying “it depends how you use it” is wrong, have only give arguments that are dependant on how you use. The author makes broad ignorant assumptions about how people use LLMs, asserts that everyone uses them like that and then pretends to control everyone lives based of that. That way of thinking is highly dangerous and it’s what have given birth to a lot of evil on our world. We need to be better, more rational, more open minded. Not falling for easy politics and actually do complex political thinking that won’t give simple answers to complex questions.

We don’t.

I don’t see any benefit to society in doing so. Why the hell does the government need to know what my gender is at any point?

I agree that gender public records should disappear.

I don’t know what were the brakets. But a lot of the time, for billionaires, the vast majority of their income gets taxed at the highest bracket. Because the other brackets are too small to even register in their income.

If you declare an antifascist organization as terrorism you are outing yourself, mate.

This is my proudest seed.

What’s even the point of running a lemmy front end if you are going to block 99% of lemmy?
