  • everyone hates AI

  • I work in infrastructure and what's concerning is that younger guys are skipping learning to script to automate processes and instead just getting slop from LLMs that they have no idea what it's doing.

    Some have also relegated learning problem solving to it as well so when things go wrong, they're clueless without it.

  • The operative word is "suggests".

    Just like I would "suggest" that instead of being pedantic about child abuse, you go have a wash, go outside and get some sunlight on your skin.

  • Drivers over 70 to undergo eye tests every three years under plans to improve road safety | LBC

    Jump

  • Make it compulsory for EVERY driver annually and enforce it through insurance companies levying an additional tax on a policy for failure to supply an eye test certificate when renewing.

    There have been various incidents where drivers with defective eye sight who were well under 70. The death of Eilidh Cairns being a prominent one where the police failed to do anything about the driver after he killed her on her bike and he later killed a 98 year old holocaust survivor while she was on a zebra crossing

  • I just don't understand what makes Israel so special that countries are willing to let their own people DIE to defend its right to commit genocide.

    Jump

  • These are the main reasons given as to why politicians are doing Israel's bidding but the simpler fact is that a lot of them just love colonialism and apartheid.

    They were never good people that were bribed or compromised. They were absolute cunts from the very beginning.

  • Ireland: Report finds rise in child brain injuries from e-scooters

  • what's the helmet situation in other countries, especially around ad-hoc rental scooters? I see scooters and bikes for rent here, but no buckets to wear, and I wonder the legality of that too.

    Outside of Australia, helmets are not mandatory and data from there shows it has had a negative effect on not only the numbers of cyclists, reducing "safety in numbers" but also an increase in children with head injuries, because drivers are less risk adverse ("Mary Poppins effect" - drivers give more space & make less dangerous passes around cyclists in everyday clothing).

    The most simple solution to increasing cyclist (and pedestrian) safety is to build better infrastructure. Design roads so that vehicles have to slow for junctions and roundabouts, especially where there's mixed modal traffic. Prioritise active and public transport over inactive modes. Make cycle, walking & bus routes more direct and make driving routes more circuitous. Discourage driving into town centres and stop building out of town retail parks.

    Back to the topic in hand:

    If anyone wants to claim that "helmets save lives" then why aren't they advocating them for vehicle passengers, who experience greater numbers and severity of head injuries than cyclists, or for pedestrians who have about the same number, possibly slightly more than cyclists?

  • Jewish organisation calls for Ms Rachel to be named 'anti-Semite of the year'

    Jump

  • They really don't see how their calling everyone an antisemite for opposing their genocide puts Jews outside Israel at risk

    That's their aim. It will then force those outside Israel to flee there as the only "sanctuary" safe for them, despite the numbers of Israelis bolting from the country and applying for citizenship elsewhere hitting new highs.
