So I’m teaching a friend who doesn’t have any development knowledge how to get started with Small Web development and I thought it would be a good opportunity to start creating and sharing the course on the Kitten web site, one lesson at a time.
Here’s the link:

Or one could use LibreOffice or Apache OpenOffice and not be dependent on some distant service provider.
Online office suites confuse me. It’s unclear what *modern* problem they address. Sharing files is a solved problem. Common data formats exist. mastodon.social/@DevOpsPink/11

An LLM generates a statistically typical response.
If you ask an LLM whether the world is round, it generates what would be a typical response to the question of whether the world is round. (It will probably be correct, because the typical answer to that question is the correct one.)
If you ask an LLM to provide examples of its own bias, it will generate what would be a typical response to a request to provide examples of bias.
In neither case is the LLM sharing any knowledge or insight other than what is typical.

99% of us breathe unsafe air—and it's hitting low- and middle-income countries hardest.
The World Bank says we can cut exposure to hazardous air pollution in half by 2040, and it's actually cost-effective. Multilateral development banks are stepping up with funding, partnerships, and knowledge sharing to make it happen.
