  • Swiss voters reject mandatory national service for women and new inheritance tax

    Jump

  • Am I in the wrong movie? Women are at a huge disadvantage in life (Gender pay gap, workplace representation, unpaid care and domestic work, education and job positions, healthcare, part-time employment, promotion and career advancement, violence against women, political representation) and we should work to solve that but for some reason we first want to force them to also serve in the military while leaving the current system in place that puts them at a disadvantage? Oh the heavens, men have to serve for a single year...yes that is super important, not all the things they get a huge advantage in life?

  • Not if said activity is forced upon you. Women can already voluntarily join the military or civil service.

  • Measure whatever you want but maybe first make it slightly more equal for the ones who have been disadvantaged for decades? But no, one party always focuses on the few things man have where they are slightly worse of.

  • Oh give me a break, women are getting away worse in so many facets of life. When we have fixed discrimination against women we can talk about them doing mandatory civil service.

    Edit: Did not know that on Lemmy we have such an issue with women's rights.

  • Schweizer stimmen gegen Steuer für Superreiche

    Jump

  • Die Initiative wurde von den Jungsozialisten eingreicht. Ich bezweifle dass diese die Idee versenken wollten.

    Verstehe die Initiative auch nicht ganz, 50% war dumm und dass es nur der Bekämpfung des Klimawandels zugute kommen sollte hat sicherlich auch nicht geholfen.

    Immerhin waren wir 21%, also doch jeder 5te :)

  • Thank Mozilla for Killing Localization on Support Mozilla (And Replacing Human Contributions With AI Bots)

    Jump

  • I mean yes, that is why I wrote the edit. It does seem like you could do this properly, by allowing AI to do rough translations of new articles and humans do proper localization afterwards. And prevent AI from overwriting localization of text that has not actually been altered in the original language.

  • Thank Mozilla for Killing Localization on Support Mozilla (And Replacing Human Contributions With AI Bots)

    Jump

  • Why? They have free (as in free beer) volunteers. AI could do translation for pages nobody had time to translate yet but taking over the localization seems unnecessary.

    Edit: Okay it is kinda like that, the bot automatically translates everything but volunteers can still contribute and provide better localization. It just seems to not work that well, overwriting things it should not when the actual work is just translating one additional sentence. Or simply not being that great at localization. In general AI translation is not a terrible idea but this seems clearly half baked and Mozilla has stopped responding to the complaints which isn't helping either.

  • Some of these test you should do far earlier. I had a full check-up at 30 to decide when we should start regular checkups. My doctor said 40 is fine but we still check a lot of stuff once a year (full bloodwork including B12 and skin cancer screening).

    The earlier you catch something the better.

  • Devs gripe about having AI shoved down their throats - The force-feeding will continue until morale improves

    Jump

  • We have just decided that we will not enable copilot telemetry as it may lead to exactly such a scenario. We would love to know, because maybe we could get rid of some licenses but the risk that we might start measuring people (even if we don't want to do that) by those metrics is far too high.

  • Btw this is Diane Morgan as Philomena Cunk. She plays her in various Cunk on...Earth/Britain/Life/etc. shows which are all brilliant. If someone here hasn't seen them I highly recommend them.

  • So Long, Firefox, Part One

    Jump

  • Holy shit, stop crying about the unintrusive and easy to disable AI features or whatever they mean by privacy feature. Are we still spreading FUD about their FAQ changes?

  • KeePassXC is now vibe coded slop

    Jump

  • Not OP but I had great success letting it repeat stuff we already have, for example we have a certain pattern on how we place translations. So I just hardcode everything and in the end tell it, using a pre-written task I can just call up, to take all the hardcoded labels and place it im our system in the same way it has already been done. It then reads the code of a few existing components and replicates that. Or I let it extract some code into smaller components. Or move some component around, it can do that batter than the IDEs integrated move action. Completely novel stuff is possible but I am uncertain if I am actually not slower using it to achieve that. I mostly do it step by step, really small steps that is.

    I have to measure my performance at some point, it is certainly possible that I am actually slower than before. But overall I never liked typing out the solution that is in my head, so using it as writer is nice.

    Sonnet 4.5 is what I use. Some colleagues like GTP-5 but it struggles real hard to do the most basic things right in my experience. Claude is just miles ahead.

  • More than $70tn of inherited wealth over next decade will widen inequality, economists warn

    Jump

  • Most ads I see against it claim that our taxes will increase because all the rich people will simply leave. And that it is to radical, should have gone with a far higher number than 50 Million and a lower tax rate. Pretty sure they would still say that no matter what the numbers are.

  • We are trying 50% above 50 Million in Switzerland right now. It does not have the slightest chance to become law. A huge majority of the population is against it even though it would basically affect no-one.

  • Cat 1: “Do you think we should scale up the image?”

    Cat 2: “Nah, I think it’s funny when people can’t read it and get all frustrated.”

    Cat 3: “I guess I’ll never know what this meme says.”

    Cat 4: “JPEG!”

  • Ain't that the truth

    Jump

  • I did when I move last time, they increased their price mid-move or they would not move certain furniture even though they initially came and gave me a price after seeing everything. They smashed a huge dent into my previous apartment and told me it is my problem. They also offered a cleaning-service which was an interesting offer but they left after halfway cleaning the place and I had to force them to finish it by threatening to sue them. In the end a lawsuit would probably have been the best way anyways as it would have fixed everything else as well but that costs money.

    They also had stellar reviews which I guess are fake...

  • EU Parliament votes to restrict 'steak' and 'burger' labels to meat only

    Jump

  • Okay, I like it as I am looking for replacements for salmon or chicken. So if they start calling their burger burge'r to circument such rules I wouldn't mind.

  • I just feels weird that you can use the value of the company you buy to buy said company. It just "feels" weird that you can get a loan and use whatever you buy as leverage.

    Now that I am typing that out that is not really different from getting a loan to buy a house. Never mind, I guess it just seems weird when it is such an insane sum of money ¯(ツ)/¯
