They wanted you to go back to work, not in X months if and when a vaccine was available, but tomorrow, taking some bullshit drug if you needed reassurance. While they were happy working from home, triple vaxxed and double masked.

I don’t know what the intent was, only what it achieved. It is now political suicide to enforce public health mandates, so when the next pandemic hits, your boss will be able to force you to go to work in unsafe sanitary conditions and a lot of people will be cheering for it.

Fair point but GM1 is definitely outside of the “big spectacle movie” industry, with a very moderate budget and a big emphasis on story telling. It’s really an amazing movie for sure

I’ve only had issues with fitgirl repacks i think there’s an optimisation they use for low RAM machines that doesn’t play well with proton

That’s a room temp take at best

But then how am I supposed to use your “research” to make imaginary claims on generational attention spans ?

It’s like in poker, show one, show all

I don’t remember people being offended by the word fuck in 2000. Sure on TV it could be considered dicey but on the internet it was pretty fair game

“i have collected some soil samples from the mesolithic age near the Amazon basin which have high sulfur and phosphorus content compared to my other samples. What factors could contribute to this distribution?”

Haha yeah the top execs were tripping balls if they thought some off-the-shelf product would be able to answer this kind of expert questions. That’s like trying to replace an expert craftsman with a 3D printer.

What kind of use-cases was it, where you didn’t find suitable local models to work with ? I’ve found that general “chatbot” things are hit and miss but more domain-constrained tasks (such as extracting structured entities from unstructured text) are pretty reliable even on smaller models. I’m not counting my chickens yet as my dataset is still somewhat small but preliminary testing has been very promising in that regard.

Most projects I’ve been in contact with are very aware of that fact. That’s why telemetry is so big right now. Everybody is building datasets in the hopes of fine tuning smaller, cheaper models once they have enough good quality data.

Did you listen to that hardcore history episode? It was crazy

Interestingly the pendulum is now swinging the other way. If you look at next.js for example, server generated multi page applications are back on the menu!

I’d place it right around when angular started gaining traction. That’s when it became common to serve just one page and have all the navigation happen in JavaScript.

Truly makes you think. Maybe we do, actually, live in a society 🤔

dear diary today on Lemmy i saw a guy who was angry at a job title

I’m not sure what you mean. Integrating LLMs in a codebase requires the use of specific tools. Sure it’s not as established and wide ranging as “frontend” but it’s still something that you need to learn and work on if you want to do it well. Kind of like, you know, a skill.

yeah and we all know there is only the one type of software engineer. It would be ridiculous to separate them into categories depending on whether they work on frontend, backend, embedded lmao

I … I don’t know man !

I think some time around the year 10000 humanity solved most of their problem and the only remaining scarcity was “good living”. Like, cultures that had a sophisticated way of enjoying life through good food, good drink and good companionship suddenly came at a high premium. The people from SW France became insanely wealthy very quick, and a sort of federation was struck between the Gascony people, the Basque and the Brittons. It was really the only possible counter-power to the more colonialist and military minded Italians.

Boar religion could be described as Albigensian catharism, except in space. Their freedom-loving ways are despised by the Italian catholic church but the galaxy is so vast that religion wars never really break out, it’s just local skirmishes.

I haven’t yet determined what animal the italians have morphed into, really glad to hear any suggestion.

Oh and here’s a picture of the Assembly of the Perfecti, held annually at Baiona Station :

I think they have adapted to life in hard vacuum they just wear those helmet cause they look pretty

Since Gen art became a thing i’ve been using it episodically to create images of a civilization of space-faring boars, representing the future of my glorious South-Western France civilization. They raise ducks and grow wine in space, and the lore is getting a lot deeper than i first thought. It’s so fucking fun man.
