  … or have a bit of empathy and talk to the teacher like a human.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Whatever happened to cheap eReaders? – Terence Eden’s Blog⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Reminds me of the old mp3 player days before the iPod came in and dominated that market.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨(・∀・)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, I told Bob not to fuck that panda.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Alexa, what do you know about us?’ What I discovered when I asked Amazon to tell me everything my family’s smart speaker had heard⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, that’s a terrible idea.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Black Mirror AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, at this rate we’ll be just fine. (As long as this is still the Reagan administration.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨fake keepass repo on github⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s taught me that bigger standard libraries are better. You still have similar issues, but at least nobody’s importing LeftPad. And your remaining dependency probably isn’t importing LeftPad either.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨fake keepass repo on github⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait til you hear about npm.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has the use of a comma instead of the word "and" in English news headlines always been a thing?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We know it primarily from context switching. It’s a thing very specific to headline-speak

  Ironically when looking up “context switching” I got programming results. Apparently Wikipedia refers to the language thing as “code switching”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The small scale of Lemmy's active user base is never more evident than in the absence of active members in all the sports related communities.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is so dismissive.

  I spent a full year posting to !leagueoflegends@lemmy.world and interaction there is still minimal to dead.

  It’s not really the starting of communities that needs help. We need more people to be the second and third person to join and help communities that someone else is trying to start.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rare insults dropped⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  nebula.tv/LegalEagle I think.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Understanding your target audience when marketing⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, sweet summer child…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s a tw3?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today, The Document Foundation is releasing LibreOffice 24.8.7. Our goal is to offer citizens, businesses and governments from around the world quality and free software⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The delete key asks what you’d like to delete.

  Unless I tell you otherwise, I always want to delete the contents of the cell. If I wanted to clear formatting, I would have done something more than just hit delete.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“No Apple tax means we will lower prices” - Proton announces lower prices for users by up to 30% after US ruling against Apple fees⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In a decade it’ll probably be the same price it was last year.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“No Apple tax means we will lower prices” - Proton announces lower prices for users by up to 30% after US ruling against Apple fees⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Here comes the Steam defenders.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘The Worst Internet-Research Ethics Violation I Have Ever Seen’ | The most persuasive “people” on a popular subreddit turned out to be a front for a secret AI experiment.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Everyone who disagrees with you is a bot

  I mean that’s unironically the problem. When there absolutely are bots out here, how do you tell?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘The Worst Internet-Research Ethics Violation I Have Ever Seen’ | The most persuasive “people” on a popular subreddit turned out to be a front for a secret AI experiment.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Back then it was just old people trying to groom 16 year olds. Now it’s a nation’s intelligence apparatus turning our citizens against each other and convincing them to destroy our country.

  I wholeheartedly believe they’re here, too. Their primary function here is to discourage the left from voting, primarily by focusing on the (very real) failures of the Democrats while the other party is extremely literally the Nazi party.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don't be Evil⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They tried to say this wouldn’t work, but Bob the PM thinks its great and has ordered you to put it through. His only concession to your warning was “well, add an ‘lol’ or something to make it sound gamery”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft CEO says up to 30% of the company's code was written by AI | TechCrunch⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, really good intellisense is a great improvement, but it’s not replacing devs any time soon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft CEO says up to 30% of the company's code was written by AI | TechCrunch⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe they’re counting the six iterations of code it gives me as I tell it what’s wrong with each one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TIL about dating⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also she’s absolutely right. That is the proper way to answer this insipid question.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I feel like if asbestos was banned today there'd be a huge pro-asbestos movement⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They probably don’t even know how to do the tariff hokey pokey.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla (TSLA) has to replace computer in ~4 million cars or compensate their owners⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is just one guy saying this. There’s no judge or government ordering a recall.

  It’s clickbait.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI isn’t ready to replace human coders for debugging, researchers say⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  “Give me some good warning message css” was a pretty nice use case. It’s a nice tool that’s near the importance of Google search.

  But you have to know when its answers are good and when they’re useless or harmful. That requires a developer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you use your blinker in a car?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I use it as soon as it’s clear what it means. If there are multiple turns, that might be four seconds so that they don’t expect me to turn early. I’ll typically hit it in the middle of the intersection of the first turn.

  If there’s no earlier option to turn, I’ll absolutely leave it on for 10-15 seconds.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy has the ideal number of posts for me. Just enough to have a good time but not too many that I'm scrolling forever⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I expect much bigger influxes. From at least a few dozen people with hundreds of accounts. Probably around the time of an election.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Vance could be relatively good. Signs point to no, but those signs are weak. The only thing I truly know about him is that he’ll lie for power. What he does once he gets that power is anyone’s guess.

  He’s close to Peter Thiel. His book is really fucking condescending towards the rural poor. (Why don’t they just get out like he did?) He’s young enough to go for a second term if he gets half a first term. And he hates Trump except when he needs to use him to gain power.

  That’s the complete record of what we know about Vance. Maybe his book was bullshit that he knew would play well with rich conservatives. Maybe he was using Peter Thiel. Maybe there’s a human in there we’ve never seen. Or maybe not.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft employee disrupts 50th anniversary and calls AI boss ‘war profiteer’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I know it’s supposed to be a joke. Doesn’t seem worth it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The cat turns him in⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If they’ll cheat with you they’ll cheat on you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FBI raids home of prominent computer scientist who has gone incommunicado⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Imagine that I googled for you and linked:

  Articles about nationwide protests over the last few weeks

  Articles about Teslas burning at dealerships

  An article about a GOP headquarters building burning with ICE = KKK written.

  Where have you been?
