Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Sent this to my friends flexing a "top 65%" score. The site didn't make it clear that's not a good thing.English

One time at work I was trying to work out a least-squares fit using linear algebra.
I have no background knowledge in linesr algebra, it felt like drawing a pentagram on the floor and chanting in backwards Latin.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•My fellow 'Muricans, do you prefer metric or standard measurements?

I’ll work on it later.
Making a pan-Indian beef burger would be complicated at best.
The more common example would be misuse of native American war bonnets at music festivals and the like.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you feel that use of generative AI and LLMs is ever justifiable? If so, when and where? If not, why not?
7·2 months agoNever use ai for something you don’t understand! Especially in a niche subject. AI is very good at connecting words that are statistically likely to go together. They’re also biased to produce answers that sound confident.
The end result is an answer that appears correct, and if you don’t know well enough to identify an “apparently correct but factually wrong” answer then you’ll just believe it.
How’s the bedbug colony treating you?
I think the golden rule with LLMs is “never trust the output.” If it’s a task you can 100% verify or has virtually no associated risk, then go right ahead.
It’s just so deeply frustrating to keep seeing people look at LLM results and treat them as truthful instead of truthy.
When’s waking and breakfast, though?
Thought this post was going in VERY different direction from the first few sentences!
Or rather, nothing exists until it is perceived?
Counterpoint: affectionate acts form a nearly-continuous spectrum from chaste to extreme. You could draw a line virtually anywhere and still make the argument that the two adjacent acts are basically the same.
Both horrifying and completely non sequitur



To nitpick: it’s fair to say his relationships with children were inappropriate. The stipulated behavior crosses a lot of lines of propriety.
The stipulated behavior doesn’t amount to being harmful or abusive.
