I don't think github has billions of users.

Yeah but what does the corporate world do when Microsoft implodes and releases "Windows 12 agentic AI" the operating system, co developed between AI and athletic employees?

I've never even heard of Zig before today and it's right out of the gate with drama, cat fights, and public spats. Got to love the programming world.

Your first mistake was buying a Dell machine.

But we don't know what the false positive rate is either? How many submissions were blocked that shouldn't have been, it seems like you don't have a way to even find that metric out unless somebody complained about it.

The problem is a lot of this is almost impossible to actually verify. After all if an article says a skyscraper has 70 stories even people working in the building may not be able to necessarily verify that.

I have worked in a building where the elevator only went to every other floor, and I must have been in that building for at least 3 months before I noticed because the ground floor obviously had access and the floor I worked on just happened to do have an elevator so it never occurred to me that there may be other floors not listed.

For something the size of a 63 (or whatever it actually was) story building it's not really visually apparent from the outside either, you'd really have to put in the effort to count the windows. Plus often times the facade looks like more stories so even counting the windows doesn't necessarily give you an accurate answer not that anyone would necessarily have the inclination to do so. So yeah, I'm not surprised that errors like that exist.

More to the point the bigger issue is can the AI actually prove that it is correct. In the article there was contradictory information in official sources so how does the AI know which one was the right one? Could somebody be employed to go check? Presumably even the building management don't know the article is incorrect otherwise they would have been inclined to fix it.

I have one of the originals and it definitely wouldn't run anything other than Linux.

I have a kid but he's at the stage where the greatest level of entertainment can be derived by sticking things up his nose.

I won't get him smart anything as a toy.

Anyone who works in IT wouldn't want that, like most cyber security professionals everything in my house is either analogue (door locks, fire alarm) or not internet connected, I have a smart TV but it's not connected to the internet and if I want to watch Netflix I just hook it up to the PS5 which basically is a media streaming service.

The first one I got was some Russian mansion with a bunch of kids wondering around. Yeah, I'd probably want to secure that.

I would be interested if there are any raspberry pi owning non-Linux users. It would sort of seem like the two would go together.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 5 points 4 days ago

Yeah because the Russians aren't going to invade. They would have to amass troops along the border we'd have some time.

What Americans think is irrelevant. Their opinions do not matter to the Trump regime. I'm sure most Americans understand that refusing to uphold article 5 would be devastating to US international diplomacy, at least the ones that can read understand that.
