Cherry picking verses is not the same as refuting an argument. The books say many things that are not practiced. In reality children are in fact taught to rely on supernatural powers.

To prove my point:

Say “Nothing will befall us except what Allah has decreed for us; He is our Protector.” Let the believers, then, put all their trust in Allah. -Quran, 9:51

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.” -Proverbs 3:5-6

Nah, fuck you

Eh the general consensus is that this launch is a small early adopter phase and they have cheaper versions in the pipeline. They’re only producing <100k units, definitely not going for mass adoption yet

Hmm, maybe a useful feature in lemmy would be to ignore votes by users who voted up a specific post, like a user configurable anti vote manipulation feature. Because this post is incredibly obviously artificially upvoted

Jquery is a swear word in professional front end contexts, the replacement is transpilation and dropping ie support.

Personally I used jquery up until react and babel got hot, now I never touch the dom directly with jquery and no longer have a need for the polyfill features as I rely on babel preset-env to support the browsers we have selected (especially for things like promises/async await/es6+ features)

216 yes, 210 no

✅ Resolution is adopted. Speaker position is vacated.

When I started out at about 14 I found a few programming books that really helped at my local library. It’s really tough to keep motivated as a kid, but if you give him tools and help him find joy in the process he’ll push himself to the finish line.

Good on you for supporting your kid, my parents told me to get off the computer and go outside every time they “caught” me programming.

Favorite for quick tasks: javascript, the last few years of ecmascript features make it an incredibly productive language.

Favorite for hobby stuff: rust, but with caveats. I miss default parameters, I dislike the syntax soup, the async system has too many “standards” (see xkcd on competing standards)

Favorite for work: javascript/typescript. Having my team be fully capable of working on any part of our competencies with just one language is huge. Sharing code between front end and backend, across products, and easily finding developers all make it an easy choice.

Least favorites:

Php: magic quotes? Golang: using casing to establish public vs private? Objective-C: the worst combo of every one of it’s predecessors Java: forcing the paradigm of everything is an object causes so much boilerplate Vb5/6/a: triggering a button with = True, using a single equals for both assignment and equality, callbacks are an absolute nightmare

It’s a bit complex, and you can find a better answer elsewhere, but a model is a set of “weights” and “bias” that make up the pathways of the neurons in a neural network.

A model can include other features but at its core it gives users the ability to run an “ai” like gpt, though models aren’t limited to only natural language processing.

Yes, you can download the models and run them on your computer, generally there will be instructions in each repository, but in general it involves downloading the model which can be very large and running it using an existing ml framework like pytorch.

It’s not a place for the layman right now, but with a few hours of research you could make it happen.

I personally run several models that I got through huggingface on my computer, llama2 which is similar to gpt3 is the one I use the most.

Huggingface takes a bit of getting used to but it’s the place to find models and datasets, imo it may be one of the most important websites on the internet today.
