I see. I don’t really use other social media so I’m out of the loop. What do you think the long run (5-10 years) looks like, as far as social network administration and moderation?

I would guess None, Some, All would be sufficient since people’s notion of where on the slider they should land will be highly variable anyway. Then users can filter on None, Some, All.

I guess I haven’t noticed much AI content, but maybe it’s just my subs – is it mainly art-related? Or memes or something?

Yeah that’s a great point – the dataframe is in a sense a class or object standardized for data analysis. Its flexibility (like being able to store arrays or dicts even) obviates the need in most cases for a user-written class.

For me it depends on the use case. If I’m designing something with an interface for someone downstream to use, I’ll usually define (data)classes even if I have a functional interface.

For data science/modeling/notebooks I usually wouldn’t define classes.

I think it also depends on your team; if everyone else is a functional programmer and you’re writing classes or vice versa, this will undoubtedly create frictions.

I’m curious, if you were emperor for a day, you would like to see Switzerland do?

I can see why Reddit needs to secure the user base. As not accounts proliferate they need to be able to demonstrate verified real users to their advertisers. Unfortunately for privacy, this will be widespread, in that case. I’m opting out.

Funny how I never see articles on Lemmy about improvements in LLM capabilities.

I can’t tell if you’re an LLM troll or a kid, but I just want to clarify what the position is that you’re staking out.

You’re saying everyone who claims to be trans IS trans. OK, perhaps we have different definitions here.

My claim is that the idea of gender dysphoria spreads through social networks. There is a lot of evidence supporting this and should be your prior. I can’t help you if your search engine doesn’t work. I didn’t claim trans people don’t exist, and I don’t know why you think being rude to strangers on the internet is acceptable.

Please reflect on why this is such an emotional topic for you. I literally don’t care and merely acknowledged that it’s a very complicated topic. Perhaps you should spend less time on social media, as it is well established that trans issues were targeted by bad actors to inflame voters on the left and right last election; you may be a victim.

The diffusion of ideas through society is a foundational principle of sociology. It isn’t a trans vs not trans thing, it’s just the way society works. This doesn’t deny the existence of trans kids, rather there are internal and external pressures (to both affirm or deny) their identity. Like I said, this is a complicated topic, and to act like every teenager who raises their hand and says they are trans is definitely trans is delusional.

You may need to work on your jokes :)

It’s a very complicated topic where for some kids it’s the right choice, other kids are feeling this way due to social contagion, and it’s turned into a weird culture war. Reductive posts like this (edit: OP’s post) don’t help.

Have you considered the possibility that, if you have 2k bookmarks, this isn’t necessarily a self-hosting issue, but rather a bookmark hoarding issue :)

If you’re asking these questions, you’re way ahead of the game and will be fine. Cats a pretty independent.

I think you’re under the impression that you will make choices for your cats; in reality, they will make these choices (and more) and you will have to live with it as their human :) you’ll find out whether they will allow you to use horse bedding, for example.

As kittens, just stick to cat food (no milk!). Generally wet food is considered healthier but perhaps more expensive. I feed my cats 2x/day out of canned wet food. You’ll have to see what they like. Generally stinkier is better. Cat food has is fortified with nutrients they might struggle to get otherwise so if you want to feed them something else like chicken as the basis you will need to supplement it with specific cat multivitamins.

If they’re indoor cats, a pair is generally a good idea so they have company. Also make sure you set aside 15 mins/day at least to play with and engage them. Generally I find my cats don’t play with fancy toys, rather they like tampons, strings and cardboard boxes.

With the vet, again it’s your call and you’ll figure it out with experience. Every vet clinic is different. I would start with the most convenient one, so that you’re incentivized to visit regularly. Your vet will give you a lot of information. Make sure to get vaccinations (edit: and spayed/neutered especially if allow them outside. Also I believe outdoor cats tend to kill a lot of birds/rodents unnecessarily so I think some cat owners put a bell on their cat collar but I don’t know).

You’ll probably want to keep them in a carrier in the car, unless you want them peeing in your car. It’s also possible they get car sick.

Cats tend to love high places, so if that’s something you can offer that’s great. Otherwise they may hide for the first few days and just come out at night so it’s fine to leave food out for them (edit: also if you choose to feed them kibble, make sure they have plenty of access to water as they can get dehydrated otherwise).

Ah you must be the new hire at my firm, welcome!

I think the post is about the state of agentic coders in 10 years, not the present.

So I installed LineageOS recently. Now that I’ve transferred my passwords and account info I’m quite happy. What will happen from here? Will some apps stop working? If not, is there a problem with just continuing to use the phone as is until I need a new phone (security, eg)?

Thank you for taking one for the team.

I’ve been running Gemma3 4b locally on ollama and it’s useful. I’m thinking about applications where a multimodal model could receive video or sensor feeds (like a security can, say).

Students are now prompting the AI to make it sound like a student wrote it, or putting it through an AI detector and changing the parts that are detected as being written by AI (adding typos or weird grammar, say). Even kids who write their own papers have to do the latter sometimes.
