They’re bashing millions of dollars in equipment with tens of thousands of dollars in equipment. There is absolutely positively no way for them to win the war but they can make it so prohibitively expensive as to be untenable. That’s the only strategy that ever worked against imperial armies.
You think therapists and doctors in general don’t use Docs or Notes services that are hosted or backed up in the cloud ? You think having your medical data leaked to tech companies is new ? Just because the notes transcription app is AI doesn’t make it magically worse. In fact it makes the data harder to access as you need to re-infer the whole enchilada if you want to mine it (as opposed to, say, Google Drive who can just make a SQL query on your data and get it structured and ready to use).
It’s nice that mental health is so inconsequential to you that you can balance it against privacy purity politics. It’s really cool for you that you’re in this position of privilege. It’s not cool to be pushing on someone with a clinical condition in a way that will probably get them worse off, in a country with absolutely no mental health safety net. Just like antivax it’s coated in fake concern, but you’re playing a dangerous game with someone else’s life and you’re cool with it because you’re insulated from the consequences.
You guys really are a pure product of those amoral hyper-individualistic times.
By god they’re going to make OP change doctors just because they hate “le stochastic parrot”. And op is probably in the US which makes the whole thing even crueller.
Literally a horde of teenagers playing with a bipolar’s head because they have big feelings about stuff.
And all this for a fucking note taking app Jesus Christ. Yeah sure OP is probably risking their mental health in the process but who gives a shit about that when you have an occasion to proclaim that le AI bad.
you know you have the option to just exchange ideas with other humans right ? fucking half cocked pseudo intellectual reaching for insults at the first 3 syllable word. what a bore.
you think religion represents 90% of the intellectual discourse?
No, i’m saying 90% of intellectual discourse is at least influenced by religion because it comes from people who are religious. Atheism being significant is a very modern phenomenon so if you’re going to study anything in history, philosophy, art or science, it’s gonna be full of religious people acting out their religious beliefs.
Even today something like 4 out of 5 people are religious, and most atheists are influenced by that common culture in some way. Dismissing the whole cultural reservoir as fairy tale is a terrible footgun, it can only make everything confusing. Everybody else is pulling from it and you refuse to even acknowledge it, that’s not gonna work.
You’re going to read poetry but it will make no sense and the climax won’t land because you can’t empathize with the religious sentiment. You’re going to read greek philosophy but it will feel drawn out and theoretical because you can’t empathize with the religious imperatives of the author. And i say this as a strict agnostic, i’m really not the kind of guy you’ll find in a church. But you can’t get to the meat of most intellectual discourse if you dismiss religion, just like you can’t get to the meat of most physics if you dismiss math.
Yeah it’s pretty sad to see comments such as this. It’s a terribly unpoetic way to live life, cutting themselves off from 90% of the intellectual discourse produced during humanity’s history :(
But this is just speculation. The fact is, systemd introduced a new optional field in the local database. They don’t publish an OS so they have no obligation to do anything more, actual implementation would have to happen in other projects.
What this is, is a spite-fork by some random AI researcher and anybody installing that on their system has way larger problems here and now than hypothetical ID verification in the maybe future.
It’s saying that you can invent an infinite number of hypothetical futures but they are not useful for making decisions in the here and now
that’s the kind of attitude i loathe in real life. “I’ve thought about it for 5 minutes and reached a hasty conclusion and everyone is stupid for not having thought of it”, except everybody has thought of it minute 1, some have even tried it, and we know it doesn’t work.
So yes, you think this is normal human behaviour. Good luck with that shit, i hope the world treats you with the same energy.
I’d love to take the credit but i actually stole it from that link that made the rounds on Hacker News
Go back to 4chan, troll
You’re right to point that out it’s shady to conflate a modern nation with some past empire within its borders, i didn’t mean it like that, or in the ethnic way.
I meant that this region, broadly speaking “Persia”, has often been the center of its own empire and a peer to its neighbors. It’s not some recently stabilized nation state with limited collective experience, it’s an old old place that already had a complex urban economy when western Europe was still neolithic. That’s why i joke with the Elamites, that shit is deep history man, broken to the yoke of empire time and time again.
Dude, we work for the same company and I could have typed that in, and maybe I did. I wanted your experience with it, that’s why I asked you.
To me it’s like sending the “let me google that for you” link to answer a question. It’s just bad form. I don’t want your whole reasoning trace man, i just want to know what you understand of it and maybe you’ll catch some detail i’m missing or whatever. It’s simple, i won’t read LLM output, my colleagues know it and i get shit for it but no i am not digesting this material for you. Give me a 3 bullet-point version in your own words, the point is not just in the data exchange it’s also to make sure you are aware of the answer and we have a common truth.
Or failing that, just give me the fucking prompt and at least i’ll know if you understand the question.
I see, that’s interesting. I do a lot of transcoding but offline so i don’t have usage for such a cache. I’ve tested various storage solutions but on my setup, transcoding is always CPU-bound, even on old ass HDDs the bottleneck is never I/O.
Yeah i specifically don’t do any AI workloads on my server, that would be stupid slow with my old ass hardware. But my buddy (who’s a bit impulsive with money) bought two Spark GX10s and we’re likely to get some fun out of them :)
VMs mostly
oh yeah i see how that can be hungry
What are you hosting on Minecraft that isn’t using >=4 gigs?
Just a vanilla server i play on with my son, it’s got 2G and i haven’t noticed anything out of the ordinary. Chunk gen is slow-ish but i suppose that’s CPU-bound.
BTW i exagerated in my initial comment, i looked at the machine and it’s sitting just under 8G of used RAM.
Also ZFS
Jesus christ 😅 no idea if you’re jesting
I used to collect books and the cheapest option at the time was ebay. I would search things like “science fiction bulk” and select the lot with the best titles. Generally I could find some around 1€ per book, don’t know if that’s still plausible.
Who would’a thunk ?
That’d be hilarious because they promised a bazillion data centers and barely delivered 3 and now 1 might get bombed.
