“Small family maps” correspond to almost 90% in the “number of farms” graph and 21% in “value of production” graph, how else can anyone read it?

Even if it is true now, it is changing and very rapidly.

By your link, 90% of farms produce 21% of producs. So yeah, most farms are owned by corpos, if we apply the meaning correctly

2 - but that’s the problem! All the new accounts, which are very often children just growing up, get bombarded with the most evil and actively damaging shit, and they don’t have the ability to curate whatever comes to them, they don’t even know that they need to do that. And if you aren’t spending hours upon hours on the platform, you don’t have time to curate the algorithm anyway, so you will be served poison

There are several content creators that started with short video and then moved on on Youtube that I just love and adore. Their short stuff is good. But when they aren’t constrained by the format and can do whatever they want, they do videos that are so much better it’s unbelievable.

It’s companies that under sanctions, it’s not only drones, its banks that finance the war, and companies that are trying to censor the internet and destroy the privacy, that sort of things.

Hey, all of those people knew in advance what will happen. I know people who are working for companies under sanctions, that were contributing to kernel before the war, and all of them knew that at some point they might be banned from that, and they still aren’t, their contributions just aren’t merged without review.
The Russian sympathisers trying to spin it as their sudden act of russophobia out of the blue, but it’s absolutely everything but. When you work for Putin and his war, you shouldn’t be surprised that people don’t trust you implicitly.

Despite everything, Telegram is actually great. It’s only bloated if you’re using the features on the device, the client is opensource and there are native apps for any platform, it’s very lightweight compared to other messengers and even to some dedicated filesharing solutions, it sends stuff p2p on the same network so you don’t need to care about the traffic, but also it allows for on-demand downloads so if you want the stuff will be available outside of your network.
Alternatively, kdeconnect, but I find myself using Telegram instead 9 times out of 10, even though I have both installed.

Or alternatively it’s a win of messaging, it’s so easy and convenient it can be easily used for the purposes not intended

What were its advantages over Firefox?

I feel like you’re slipping too much into the paranoia region. Also masks don’t help with face recognition that much

Yeah, the scary thing about LLMs is that by their very nature they sound convincing and it’s very easy to fall into a trap, we as humans are hardwired to misconstrue the ability to talk smoothly for intelligence, and when computer started to speak with complete sentences and hold the immediate context of a conversation, we immediately started to think that we have a thinking machine and started believing it.
The worst thing is, there are legit uses for all the machine learning stuff and LLMs in particular, so we can’t just throw it all out of the window, we will have to collectively adapt to this very convincing randomness machine that is just here all the time

As someone with degrees and decades of experience, I urge you not use it for that. It’s a cleverly disguised randomness machine, it will give you incorrect information that will be indistinguishable from truth because “truth” is never the criteria that it can use, but be convincing is. It will seed those untruths into you and unlearning bad practices that you picked up at the beginning might take years and cost you a career. And since you’re just starting, you have no idea how to pick up bullshit from truth as long as the final result seem to work, and that’s the works way to hide the bullshit from you.
The field is already very accessible for everyone who wants to learn it, the amount of guides, examples, teaching courses, very useful youtube videos with thick Indian accent is already enormous, and most of them are at least trying to self-correct, while LLM actively doesn’t, in fact it’s trying to do the opposite.
Best case scenario you’re learning inefficiently, worst case scenario you aren’t learning at all

Don’t overestimate LLMs, it can’t code and never will be. It can create templates convincingly enough and do boilerplate parts that are nonsense only sometimes, but those aren’t the fun parts of the coding process anyway. In my experience, LLM isn’t helping at all and I spend more time fixing it’s nonsense than I would do if I don’t use it at all, so I don’t

And for the crime of being send to death they should be punished by not having the newest divers. That’ll show them.

But social media don’t have to burn tar. They chose to because this way they can get more money, but it’s not an inherent part of the system, it’s an exploitation of it for profit, and can be separated

Nah, you just butthurt that your putinsucking goes unappreciated
