I said nothing about accepting tech problems or assigning blame. it’s simply a sensible design for a website that is occasionally updated to use dynamically loaded elements.
The real power consumption cost is from the model training. The marginal cost of running a query is small. Unless you use LLMs heavily, you probably use more power in many other ways, like if you forget to put your computer to sleep.
More training means better models, generally. If you want to minimize that, look for smaller models on HuggingFace that are more tightly focused on whatever task you have at hand.
Or, you could just do most of your queries when your local electricity mix has more renewables.
you are acting like being trans is some kind of disability or flaw, when it is not.
consider if you said “all people blind at birth would rather be born with sight.” that is certainly not true, as for many it’s a key facet of their being despite making life more difficult.
i would not be who i am without my life experiences transitioning. asking me to imagine being born differently is asking me to imagine being another person. no, i would rather be myself.
there are many, many enbies. while the amount is probably below 50%, they are trans too and their experiences should not be sidelined.
just an hour in the middle of the night? sounds more like maintenance or an accidental block.
