A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Americans feel more and more glum, data shows. Economists are over it
7·17 days agoOh don’t worry, they’re likely trying to figure out how to steal your stock investments too.
2008 crisis was a lot of folks being forced to sell their investments At a loss Large banks bought up those shares for very cheap.
The current fear I have is SPY, which is a lot of retirement funds, is 1/3 AI stocks. It feels a bit like big banks are finding ways to load up trillions of bad debt into these stocks.
The bubble was because of speculative finance assholes ripping each other off by pointing at the thin vaneer of corporate windows built on the tools that were mostly developed by the military, universities, CERN and countless nerds’ computer rooms and garages.
Clearly this camera captures the size of the hunger

82·2 months agoGPS is vulnerable to various attacks.
It’s unclear what the capabilities are, but there IS a Russian satellite that HAS jammed GPS for almost a whole hemisphere. It’s operated several times for a couple seconds over these past few years.
Veritassium did a great presentation on how we know this.

Technology@lemmy.world•NVIDIA reportedly buys HuggingFace for 13 billionEnglish
4·2 months agoProbably hoping to do what GitHub did. Profit of the metrics of who is downloading what, who is developing what and having everyone uploading all their stuff to them.
Microsoft didn’t buy GitHub for the storage and bandwidth bills.
NVidia isn’t buying huggingface for the storage and bandwidth bills either

Linux@programming.dev•Avoiding Vendor Lock-in By Using KDE Plasma As Personal Knowledge Base
1·3 months agoAgree. I think I’m going to add googles open knowledge format frontmatter to my templates. Not a lot of tools for it exist yet, but they’re coming, and it’s literally just a standard header for your markdowns including optional tags

Linux@programming.dev•Avoiding Vendor Lock-in By Using KDE Plasma As Personal Knowledge Base
1·3 months agoSounds convenient enough to me. I used to keep notes on Evernote, then my own media wiki instance on a VPS, tried Google docs. Lost most of those due to changing jobs, forgetting to renew subscriptions and getting locked out of my yahoo email. Google docs is surprisingly annoying to search for me
Obsidian looks nice, but this seems even simpler to me, who is comfortable with scripting
lefaucet@slrpnk.nettoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Data center fees trickling down to citizensEnglish
51·3 months agoWow bro, you’re so smart. Clearly once someone posts something to the Internet that is the only action they are taking. And clearly posting to the Internet is only as effective at communicating the problem as putting up posters for thousands of people to read.
What should we do about it OP not knowing your super-smart insight here? Reply to their post about it?

11·3 months agoThey are raising prices because there is new demand in the market. That’s not socialism at all, it’s market forces.
I’m betting the datacenters and power companies are funded by capital from investors that demand to receive the maximum capital return that can be extracted from that municipality. That’s capitalism

I think the issue is LLMs can’t do a humans job, only be a tool for a human to use. And the tasks it’s good at weren’t large bottlenecks to begin with.

4·5 months agoHonest question as I’m out of touch: What’s he redeeming himself from? Explain it like I’m 50.




…and he removed his shirt like manly Putin upon his trusty steed. Muscles rippling like hot borcht, he held Zalensky in his big burly man arms and whispered softly, “Nyet.”
