  If you use LLMs in your professional work, you’re crazy

  Eh, we use copilot at work and it can be pretty helpful. You should always check and understand any code you commit to any project, so if you just blindly paste flawed code (like with stack overflow,) that’s kind of on you for not understanding what you’re doing.

  Honestly, that makes it funnier to me

  Lot of people in this comment section are neglecting that it can just be fun for some people, and there’s no need to stake your entire identity on a personality test

  This post makes it seem like the Sichumaria (4.4 out of 5 stars) Long Handle 24.6 inch Shoe Horn actually makes it harder to shoehorn, when the opposite is actually true!

  I love my Sichumaria (4.4 out of 5 stars) Long Handle 24.6 inch Shoe Horn!

  Man, this must just be a right of passage for working as a SWE or MLE at this point. I’ve heard this pitch from coworkers/managers more than once.

  Buddy, I’m not telling you it will work for you. I’m talking about on the whole we have scientific evidence to prove that it is effective. I’m literally only responding to your claim that “therapy is pseudoscience.” No need to get so defensive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wish humans could get firmware upgrades⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I still somewhat take issue with that characterization though. It doesn’t just “work for me and that’s okay,” it works period. It has been clinically shown to work for other people too. I only say this because spreading misinformation about it being “pseudoscience” and ineffective only serves to continue some people’s pain and never find an effective treatment for them, and I believe that’s potentially dangerous.

  It’s mostly for things that don’t warrant a post but your friends might still think are interesting. I’m big on live music so it makes it easy for me to see a snippets of shows people go to or even to figure out if friends happen to be at the same show, but that’s just my personal example.

  I have gone through some trauma therapy that has helped where no talk therapy has been able to. There are lots of studies showing the effectiveness too. Look up EMDR or brain spotting.

  I really just have to push back on the “doing nothing at all” or “talking to a rubber duck” piece because I’d been trying that for years and trauma flashbacks don’t seem just go away on their own.

  internet service providers

  This is the key here, though. Twitter isn’t an ISP, they’re just making it more annoying when navigating from their site to elsewhere.

  I have been doing this where appropriate, but always run up against people telling me it’s too complicated and it’ll never work because nobody can understand it. I think usability for the less technically minded people is huge and should be a priority before any widespread adoption will be able to take place.

  Somewhat off topic, but what app are former Joey users using for Lemmy? I loved the compact mode in Joey and Thunder is the one I like the most so far, but it’s still missing a few bits of info
