Congratulations!

sexy_peach OP ,

Yeah sorry I didn't finish the video before posting. Some sections are just plain wrong.

sexy_peach ,

It's pretty easy to understand how it works. It's a giant "guess which word should come next" machine.

sexy_peach ,

I don't think so? Not a neuroscientist or whatever though.

sexy_peach ,

Researchers who work on transformer models understand how the algorithm works, but they don’t yet know how their simple programs can generalize as much as they do.

They do!

You can even train small networks by hand with pen and paper. You can also manually design small models without training them at all.

The interesting part is that this dated tech is producing such good results now that we throw our modern hardware at it.

Ah I see.

We're Watching Facebook Die ( www.wheresyoured.at )

In the first quarter of 2024, Meta made $36.45 billion dollars - $12.37 billion dollars of which was pure profit. Though the company no longer reports daily active users, it now uses another metric: “family daily active people.” This number refers to “registered and logged-in users of one or more of Facebook’s Family...

Oh it's definitely dying.

Time for an ICQ for the Fediverse?

Looks like ICQ is finally shutting down, just as interest in retro internet tools is growing.

sexy_peach ,

what do you have in mind? Jabber/XMPP is very similar.

sexy_peach , (edited )

It runs on any old raspberry pi (any but raspberry pi 1 I believe) in your house, can be used by family and friends as well. Has iOS and Android apps... I have had good experiences with the easy to set up https://snikket.org/ XMPP server.

sexy_peach ,

Unfortunately the feddit.de server has been broken for quite a while and we have trouble contacting the admin.

sexy_peach ,

But it has 10k impressions!!!!! which means that 9k bots scrolled past it and a couple of people had it loaded on their app.

sexy_peach ,

doesn't have to be pi, maybe it's just 3.1415 :)

sexy_peach ,

I really feel sorry for them :( They could do things that would make them happy with that money, like go to therapy or hike in the woods or whatever.

lol get rekt

Flächennutzung in Deutschland ( discuss.tchncs.de ) German

Die Karte fand ich echt interessant, gerade in Bezug auf die aktuellen Diskussionen um PV auf Äckern oder Windkraft. Schön sieht man, wie viel mehr Platz Energiepflanzen brauchen und dass Golfplätze oder Weihnachtsbaumanbau mehr Fläche verbrauchen als PV fand ich auch interessant....

sexy_peach ,

Wow es gibt so wenige Veganer_innen und die brauchen so viel Platz fuer ihre Ernaehrung?? /s

sexy_peach ,

Ne aber ehrlich das ist echt krass. Was fuer ein Schaden der Viehfutteranbau verursachen muss... Wenn das alles Wald waere, hach.

sexy_peach ,

lol, lmao even

sexy_peach OP ,

Yes I totally agree!

sexy_peach ,

I urge everyone to install linux on an old notebook and see if it works for you with firefox as a browser and thunderbird for emails

sexy_peach ,

Because it works well

sexy_peach ,

Well but Thunderbird can get mails from dozens of email addresses at the same time.

sexy_peach ,

It's pretty clever honestly.

sexy_peach ,

"earn your vote". That's not how democracy works. Even in a workers council voting will suck and be a matter of lesser bad.

sexy_peach ,

wdym?

sexy_peach ,

We should never "accept" bad outcomes, not even in a workers council. But still use it to push for the best outcome, fight the bad outcome as well.

sexy_peach ,

It was never efficient/fast enough.

sexy_peach OP ,

That's a bold prediction.

sexy_peach OP ,

Yup but the employers are to blame

sexy_peach ,

GPS coordinates in metadata isn't common
