If it ain't fun, you're not doing it right.

Your challenge is not to convince people that ChatGPT can do interesting things. We all know that. Your challenge is to prove that it can do things that can't be done with advanced statistics.

It's not hard to extrapolate that new features require updates (that's always been the case) nor that the FBI doesn't like encryption in the hands of citizens (same)...

EOT for me.

@donaldball @ieatkillerbees
There's a point where questioning an actual expert on the subject becomes ridiculous. You've gone past that point before two others backed the original person up. Are you really sure you want to take this further?

@matthew_d_green
@ieatkillerbees Yes. Absolutely. What you know as 'AI' is nothing but statistics. Advanced statistics yes, but nothing more than that.

@Suiseiseki @marcan Even if that was true (which it isn't), software doesn't get written by magic, it gets written by human beings. Harassment demotivates people, and that means software stops being written. So apart from the very obvious fact that nobody should have to be targeted by abusers and harassers, improving your community's health also improves the output (both quality and quantity) of your community.

You are very wrong.

@Annasaur @georgetakei oh he would totally sign... and then renege.

He just doesn't care.

@dekkzz76
Whoops, sorry. I only saw it yesterday after @fosdem reacted to it, hadn't noticed that your original toot was almost a week ago.

My fault, sorry.

@dekkzz76 @fosdem maybe you should realize that the release of videos, while automated as much as possible, cannot be fully automated and therefore it takes work (which implies time) for us to release videos. They're being released on a daily basis as work completes.

Given that, "as of last week" is completely useless and outdated information.

@dekkzz76

@fosdem that one should be available. Isn't it?

@drewdevault yes. It's why freedesktop.org exists: so that gnome, kde, and other free desktops can cooperate on underlying infrastructure, while diversifying where they disagree.

@zhenech if python had made allowances for these kinds of things, we wouldn't be here?

And I think you're looking for ๐Ÿฅ and ๐ŸŽฉ ๐Ÿ˜‰

@zhenech actually, I'll happily join you. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ”ฅ

@stroobl
Dat heet "sluikstorten" en je kan daar klacht voor neerleggen? Leuke aan auto's is dat ze een heel duidelijke nummer erop hebben die de politie kan gebruiken voor dat soort dingen...

@mirabilos no, I've learned the only way to use inkscape safely is to memorize the 'save' keyboard shortcut and to hit that after *every* operation.

@bagder
Don't forget the more curl after that!


#curl #sourcegraph #podcast

A picture with a superscription: "How to offend four groups of geeks with one photo"

Below that, a picture of Patrick Stewart, with a byline saying:

"Use the Force, Harry"

With that line attributed to "Gandalf"

Yay
250 day language steak on Duolingo!

Uluru
A photo of uluru (the mountain in Australia), followed by an equals sign, followed by a Rubik's cube after the transformation uluru was applied from the solved position

And the ๐Ÿ† for the first talk to appear on video.fosdem.org goes to... Noel De Martin, in H.1301, with a talk titled "From Zero to Hero with Solid"
