“we ran out of useful things to do with computing at the consumer level and now we are inventing problems” - “just bill’em” gates, 1984.

I mean you’re right, but also, anybody who is an actual mathematician has no idea how to add 6+17, mostly only being concerned with “why” is 6+17, and the answer is something along the lines of bijective function space.

Gemma2, the new state of the art, still can get above 45% correct in basic addition, and also can’t do better than a two or three basic Google searches. GPT is a NLP tool, and using it to do math would be like using a F-35 to weave lace.

Can confirm, got halfway wrecked in my upper div statistics midterm during COVID. 24 hours, open everything. Even the Internet can’t replace real understanding.

The problem is usability for non power users. As a server environment nothing beats it but man the UI on these apps have some horrendous defaults and the CLI is everywhere. KDE still can’t get rounded corners right.

TBH this really wasn’t the kind of discourse I was expecting in 196 of all places, especially since there are Tumblr posts on this sub preemptively calling out this kinda stuff for being terf talking points

My favorite post grad duo? In my 196? Improbable!

Fresh install, it works! Extensions are required to be “trusted” but other than that everything seems to be in the same place.

MFW Someone puts a pull bar handle on the inside of doors that are designated exits 😡😡😡🔥🔥🔥☹️☹️☹️⚰️⚰️⚰️

Go into grub and set intel_idle.max_cstate=1 if you want it to be elegant. Had the same problem. AMD didn’t implement proper sleep states. There’s an open PR ranting about interconnect issues somewhere if I can find it.

goes ting

I’ll edit this comment once I figure out how to stop getting json errors for images… edit: i dug up an old imgur account for this

Not a theorem really just homework problems

If I’m leaving at four, i might as well not sleep what the hell

I mean, I like it here.

• old 196 is reopening -> most likely less traffic
• AWS is really expensive apparently, mostly image and transfer

Text is cheap to serve, but images (and video) are a PAIN. If a significant chunk of expense can be mitigated if I use Imgur or some other service and link my silly memes rather than direct upload then yeah sure, but moving the community around tends to lose people.
