Honestly that hasn’t been my experience but either way there’s always room for improvement.

Also, I hope we can all make a concerted effort to be nicer to each other. It’s the internet so that’s not always easy but I do think that’s one of the things holding us back.
- Comment on Marco Rubio bans Calibri font at State Department for being too DEI 3 days ago:
They’ve never been for small government. This lie needs to be called out every single time.
- Comment on Assumptions 2 weeks ago:
Capybara are dangerous?! Do they kill by biting or what?
- Comment on *confused flatfish noises* 2 weeks ago:
I would assume insects would be evolutionarily similar to other types or prey.
- Comment on When DeepSeek-R1 receives prompts containing topics the CCP considers politically sensitive, the likelihood of it producing code with severe security vulnerabilities increases by up to 50%. 2 weeks ago:
It’s pretty clear that deepseek is not open source, or at least shouldn’t be considered within the spirit of open source.
It seems like if we want to have truly open source llms, a new standard for transparency is needed.
- Comment on Insulin 2 weeks ago:
Seems like something other states should get in on. Now that the program is established seems like it would not be as hard to pay into it and get a share of the product.
- Comment on The Economist on using phrenology for hiring and lending decisions: "Some might argue that face-based analysis is more meritocratic" […] "For people without access to credit, that could be a blessing" 4 weeks ago:
What I meant was, what is the mechanism that supposedly connects facial features to job performance?
- Comment on The Economist on using phrenology for hiring and lending decisions: "Some might argue that face-based analysis is more meritocratic" […] "For people without access to credit, that could be a blessing" 4 weeks ago:
Disturbing. What is the proposed mechanism here? Or is it unknown?
- Comment on Hrmmmmm 5 weeks ago:
Call me naive if you want but I think we might want to aim for slightly more than another flavor of illusory democracy.
- Comment on FBI Tries to Unmask Owner of Infamous Archive.is Site 5 weeks ago:
I assume you mean JFK, was he talking about this?
But I mean we as in the people of the US. Our leaders have very different incentives than we do.
- Comment on FBI Tries to Unmask Owner of Infamous Archive.is Site 5 weeks ago:
When are we going to start talking about abolishing the FBI?
- Comment on Why doesn't NASA have a go fund me page or kickstarter? Really don't know how they work but would donate. 380 million in the US if everyone gave a dollar would do good? 5 weeks ago:
It has some advantages but I think it will make public services even more subordinated to the interests of the wealthy. Since they would have almost sole discretion on where that money goes.

Ouch my teeth 😢
- Comment on Are bots on lemmy? 1 month ago:
I’ve never seen real evidence of bots impersonating people here but it’s hard to know. Maybe admins would have more insights.
There are a few ad bots that sneak in but they usually get a ban pretty quickly.
- Comment on Are bots on lemmy? 1 month ago:
Sounds like something a bot would say!
- Comment on During the lead up to the Holocaust did the N... regime just kidnap people who they even thought were Jews? Kind of like ICE is doing to citizens today? 1 month ago:
I was worried about this with CECOT but I think most everyone ended up being released from there? Does anyone know if other American deportees are still being held there?
Unfortunately, I’ve seen very little reporting on other foreign prison camps, so I don’t know what the conditions there are like and who is being held vs released etc. Someone in the media really needs to dig into this more. Or if anyone has seen such reporting, please link it.
- Comment on After police used Flock cameras to accuse a Denver woman of theft, she had to prove her own innocence 1 month ago:
Should disabling these cameras be considered community defense? Discuss.

Is the implication here that Asian plums are a different species?

Distant cackling

The spiders have their corners in my house. Doesn’t bother me. They eat the pesky flying insects that like to fly in my face.
- Comment on Fight me 1 month ago:
Well ultimately it all becomes heat. Maybe a tiny amount escapes a window or something. So we could say 99%.
But heat pumps still reign supreme, at least until it gets super cold.
- Comment on How many people would a generation ship need to have for inbreeding to not be an issue? 1 month ago:
The obvious solution here is to include frozen gametes in the ship’s cargo to increase the diversity of the population. It would be culturally easiest with frozen sperm but if necessary you could include eggs as well, provided people are willing to be surrogate mothers.
- Comment on Fear their power 1 month ago:
Imagine how much easier dating would be if you’re default compatible with over 98% of the population. Making me jealous.
- Comment on Who haunts your home? 1 month ago:
Not quite as advertised. Just a list of relevant fossil sites and publications. Very useful for a researcher, I’m sure, but not just a list of species for your area.
- Comment on Oh no my harvest is too bountiful 1 month ago:
What’s it got to do with being a nuclear engineer though? It just seems so random, it feels like I’m missing something.
- Comment on Oh no my harvest is too bountiful 1 month ago:
I don’t get it. Why furries?
- Comment on Is it possible to be a leftist, but still really enjoy capitalism? 1 month ago:
I feel like most anarchists identify as socialists, so I’m not sure about that one.
- Comment on Is it possible to be a leftist, but still really enjoy capitalism? 1 month ago:
What would be an example of a non-socialist but leftist school of thought?
- Comment on arborholing 1 month ago:
If we are being ruled by our crops it would have to be corn and not trees, unfortunately. Trees would be much better overlords I think.
