  • This CEO laid off nearly 80% of his staff because they refused to adopt AI fast enough. 2 years later, he says he’d do it again

  • Writing prompts is definitely a thing users must learn to do properly, to get the right results.

    But anyways, any company that fires people in favor of AI is only digging their own grave anyways. I personally believe AI (of which LLM is only a small part) can definitely serve as an automation tool that can increase output. Great companies will use this tech to give their employees more time to work on things that are meaningful to the company, that the AI cannot do. For instance, a company could free up some time of highly skilled engineers to help a couple hours a week on the most complicated service desk issues to increase customer satisfaction. Or the LLM can create more time for sales to have meetings with customers, instead of doing admin they already hate, etc... Use it to grow, not to shrink.

    Besides, if your company can be completely run by AI anyways, then congratulations, you just reached the end goal of open sourcing your company. Because why the heck won't anyone be able to replicate that quickly?

  • Honestly, in that case, don't expect mass adoption. Simple as that.

    If the idea is to keep Linux as a niche, then that's fine. But if you/the community want Linux to rival Windows/Mac, than these are the exact bullet points that must change.

  • How does that help anything? The channel is trying it out, a channel that is objectively more technically skilled than the average PC gamer. So if they can't make it work, or can't make it work seamlessly enough, then there is an issue. It reinforces the image that gaming on Linux is difficult, which frankly, it is.

  • Client side verification, that only shares the verification/proof thumbs up to the requestor, could work in such scenario. Very similar to digital payment cards such as seen in Apple Pay. You verify with your biometrics, anyone can only use it in that brief moment of time, but you cannot share that card. When paying, the device will only quickly check key details of that card to execute payment.

  • A digital ID, by itself, isn't much of an issue and can be very convenient for the user as well. Even better, it can be setup in a more privacy conserving way. For instance, when you have to provide your ID today, you often have to give companies a copy of your ID, which isn't really favorable to the owner of that ID. With digital ID, it's easier to give/revoke access to your ID or mask certain information the other party doesn't need to know. Most ID scans are mainly done to verify the person has a legitimate ID anyways and presented it, making this digital can be an improvement.

    Where it does get black mirror-ey is when you have to use that digital identity to basically log in to the internet and all your internet activity is logged to your ID. The shit the government can pull with such information is mindbogglingly bad.

  • 'You Cut Our Healthcare!' GOP Lawmaker Drowned in Boos at Combative Town Hall

  • "We cut our healthcare!" - seems more appropriate, given they voted for this mess.

  • AOL will end dial-up internet service in September, 34 years after it's debut — AOL Shield Browser and AOL Dialer software will be shuttered on the same day

  • Not too bad really, considering that software developer has milked that cow for way longer than anyone would've thought. Those last 5 years will be challenging though, but maybe the software developer can sprinkle some AI over their resume and magically land some weird role that nobody can explain why we need it in the first place.

  • Trump names himself chair of L.A. Olympics task force, sees role for military during Games

  • Disclaimer: I'm not in favor of what is happening in the US

    But honestly, is there a real threat for the athletes this time around?

    Jump

  • As much as I want that to happen, it won't. Look at previous examples of Olympics hosted in Russia or China. Or look at the World Cup football in Qatar, in stadiums that were built by slaves, some of them died during construction. Countries didn't boycot those events, why would that happen now?

  • Yes he's dumb, but on the topic of tariffs he knows it will not bring blue collar jobs back to the US_, look at his own merch or the phone he is selling, all made in China. Secondly, he didn't write Project 2025, there are smarter people than Trump pulling the strings, there is ulterior motive to push for these tariffs. I personally don't really know what, other than wrecking the economy or maybe purposefully devaluating the dollar.

  • It's only been a couple of months. For many people across Europe, visiting the US is quite a trip, these are easily planned a year in advance. Therefore, many still visit the US, because otherwise they might lose serious sums of money. I'm curious to see what next years figures will look like

  • Agree!

    If you want to pirate content, go ahead pirate it. But don't act like you're doing something morally right or some other mental gymnastics to tell yourself you're allowed to pirate content. The truth is, you're doing something illegal. If you're okay with that, then by all means go ahead, but don't tell yourself or others that it is somehow not illegal, because it is.

  • Even nationwide GPS speed detection isn't flawless. What if an accident happens or for road works, then a temporary speed reduction can be applied. The autonomous driving system must be able to detect those situations and handle them gracefully. But also coming out of that temporary speed restricted zone. What if the car doesn't detect the end of the zone? Then the autonomous vehicle can drive dangerously slow until the next sign.

  • Tesla's European car sales nosedive for fifth month as customers switch to Chinese EVs

  • We bought a second hand i3 (2014) model for my SO to drive to work and back (short distances). The range is objectively horrible (about 100 km), but sufficient for my SO's needs. Overall, we love the car! It's so much fun to drive, and very efficient due to its light carbon fiber chassis. The car does everything we expect of it and we run it very cheap.

    Such a waste BMW didn't iterate on the i3/i8 sooner. They would've knocked Tesla out of the water before they could even learn how to swim.
