There's 3 types of people in this world:
1️⃣ Baffled folks with closed mindsets, completely clueless & scared of AI
2️⃣ Loud, untrained self-proclaimed experts who complain about AI more than they learn about it
3️⃣ Educated #AI users quietly & rapidly getting things done w/ a wry smile

I am so tired of people trying to shove AI down my throat that anytime anyone talks about AI or adopts anything using it or anything like that I will just go on a ten minute tangent about how massive companies suck and AI is not even remotely the future. You did this to me, OpenAI/Microsoft/Apple/<insert other massive company here>.

After wearing my cargo pants yesterday and being spoiled by decent sized pockets (I could fit my phone in the front pocket, keys, and lipstick without it falling out when I sit) I’m pissed again about the pockets in my current pants, back pocket I can only put my hand up to my second knuckle in the back (might fit a lipstick but it would fall out) and the front ones, stuff keeps falling out when I sit. I’m going to lengthen the pockets based on the cargo pants pockets, I don’t care if it ‘ruins the line of the pants, and adds bulkiness’ because as I always say, women’s pockets, when pants have them, are bullshit. And I don’t care if they make me look fat because I value function and comfort more. My son can fit a whole keyboard in his. I’ve been gradually lengthening my pockets as I get to them, or wearing a Fanny pack, but had to go to a funeral Sunday and got pissed again about my pockets. I want to empower other women with decent pockets, so we can take over. That poem about seditious pockets comes to mind. Or at least carry phones and keys. Will post photos. #sewing #pockets #womenspants

@… Aha, I get you now! This is the best thing about proofs (I feel the same way about dependently-typed programming). The more information you can convey in a signature or type, the less you need to look inside.
I'm surprised you say that Go is close to it, though; is this because of culture? I'm sure that Rob Pike shouting “don't do anything cle…

About those massive Russian losses of equipment near Kursk... looks like Ukraine released video of it.
Considering that Russia only has about 5-2 odds on that front, well... I don't think things are going all that well. Whatever gains they are making are just too expensive.

Wo ist denn mittlerweile der große Unterschied zwischen Merz und den AfD-Politikern?
Meiner Meinung nach sehen die sich ziemlich ähnlich in ihren Ansichten.

Of course the person who makes cool videos about popcorn mode (my new microwave seems to have the bad one btw ;-; idk why they don’t have this on the spec sheet), pinball machines, dishwashers and stuff would be on fedi, idk how that didn’t occur to me before

@… @… There is so much right about this that I don't know where to start.
The only worry I have is that it sounds hard for someone else to create a competing implementation, and I think that we need more of that from our…
