  • What are the advantages of portable apps?

    Jump

  • Installation restriction at work. You may have rights to execute .exe but not to install app.

    I also have a dozen of utility app I daily use (image viewer, PDF viewer, process killer, inkscape, gimp, etc...). I just have to zip my progs folder to backup and I won't need to reinstall everything if my computer die (which happened last month BTW).

  • Before We Blame AI For Suicide, We Should Admit How Little We Know About Suicide

    Jump

  • Interesting analysis indeed that make me review my position a bit.

    Where the article is right, is that we know very little about suicide, depression, and cognitive dysfunction in general. As it says, the only prevention method we currently have is basically asking "do you plan to kill yourself ?". There are some protocol that can estimate the risk level like asking "have you ever consider it before", "how many time in the last 2 weeks", "have you ever thought about scenario", "have you ever tried it", etc... But some people may "simulate" suicide attempt dozen of time to ask for help, whereas other will kill themselves at first try without any prior sign.

    Lonely person may find refuge in LLM which may end up in a deadly trap. Like he could have ended up in MMO game, social networking or anything else that could lead to the same consequences. I just find too easy to blame AI because it's a new way to lost itself. But where you are right, is that we could expect a human community to be naturally kind (most of the time...), whereas LLM doesn't even understand the idea of kindness.

    Then, suicide and depression is not always due to social or environmental causes. Sometime, it's cause by chemical unbalanced in brain. In that case, there is no psychological treatment and the only solution is medication (in current state of science).

  • "AI cause suicide" is the new "Video game cause violence". In the long chain of event that ended up to the act, AI may have been a small link. Like the butterfly that created the hurricane. But chaos theory also showed us that this hurricane would have happened anyway.

  • coworker: skrew up its project.

    me: "Don't worry, it doesn't matter that much, no one died. It's not always the case."

    coworker: "Wait, what ?! what do you mean by that ?!!"

  • Outside of politics, have you ever had a position on something that you have doubled down on and refused to move an inch on to the point of upsetting someone? Were you right?

    Jump

  • I said in a meeting "that's a really bad idea"

    They still did it.

    During years, we had trouble with it. I kept saying "I told you it was a bad idea".

    After 6 years, they finally removed it. I said "well, I said it was a bad idea".

  • That moment you are so sarcastic everyone think you're 1st degree...

    That was supposed to be a joke.

  • I use to have that as teen after a "firework accident". It fade year after year, now it don't bother me anymore.

  • The Rise Of Fake Casio Scientific Calculators

    Jump

  • Some friends had the ti89. It has basically the same features. The ti92/V200 screens are larger, and have a full qwerty keyboard which make them much user firendly, but as I remember, firmware were similar.

    Jump

  • Yep, that one. But if you don't use it everyday, you quickly forgot how it works ;)

  • Are We Ready to Be Governed by Artificial Intelligence?

    Jump

  • We are already governed by Human Stupidity. It cannot be worst.

  • The Rise Of Fake Casio Scientific Calculators

    Jump

  • I got a V200, the successor of ti92. Best device ever, so much power in that brick. I never found something equivalent on computer, except maybe wolfram alpha.

    I'm just sad I never had to really use it in my work. Only time it could have been useful, it was dead 😥.

  • Open-source Postman alternatives?

    Jump

  • Especially when thé API is shit

  • Nearly all of Spotify has been scraped and is available via torrents

    Jump

  • Yep, most of tracks were already available on "various" sources, but this time they directly scraped the whole Spotify database.

    It's really nice from them to backup Spotify database on a distributed system, and for free ! This ensure Spotify business won't be endanger in case of critical hardware failure.

  • What social class would that be

    Jump

  • Yes, OP, your are rich. Not super rich, but clearly in upper class.

    "Say you own 2 houses". I'm in top 10% revenue in my country and I don't even finished to pay for my 1st one. And I'm now regularly doing thing that I watched on TV as a kid thinking "Whoa, I wish I could do this ! but only rich people can :(..."

  • That's not how cardinality works when dealing with infinite. For ex, there are the same number of prime number than number of integer. Yes, there are many non prime inter between 2 prime integer, but as long as you can "count" them, they have the same cardinality, which is called "aleph 0".

    But you cannot "count" real number. There are actually more real between 0 and 1 than there are interger. This value is called "aleph 1".

    Yes, there is also aleph 2, aleph 3,... There is not a single "infinite", but there are several one that don't have the same size.
