    I'm having second thoughts about quitting my current position, I'm scared and I don't understand myself. What's happening to me?

  • Your reaction to the uncertainty that comes w/ quitting your job is normal. IMO that is the aspect to investigate and try to accept what is and what isn't within your control

  • I also expected better from The Guardian. This feels like it should be a sentence in a Wikipedia page not an article that introduces her to the public

  • Thanks for the update!

  • RSS pleasantly surprised me

    Jump

  • It's audio-specific but I use Audiobookshelf's RSS feed

    I have a local folder where I put downloaded youtube audio and the RSS feed updates automatically when new files are placed there. Then, I access it through Lissen or the official audiobookshelf app.

  • The author from the article did. It's a bit of a stretch as are the last 2-3 pieces of the list 🤷🏾‍♂️. The first few are still pretty big.

  • Is super-intellignence smarter than all humans? I think where we stand now, LLMs are already smarter than the average human while lagging behind experts w/ specialized knowledge, no?

  • Do you have an example of human intelligence that doesn't rely on pattern recognition through previous experience?

  • At what point do you think that your opinion on AI trumps the papers and studies of researchers in those fields?

  • Respectfully, none of the aforementioned examples are simple, or else humans wouldn't have needed to leverage AI to make such substantial progress in less than 2 years.

  • I've been using AI to troubleshoot/learn after switching from Windows -> Linux 1.5 years ago. It has given me very poor advice occasionally, but it has taught me a lot more valuable info. This is not dissimilar to my experience following tutorials on the internet...

    I honestly doubt I would ever pay for this shit.

    I understand your perspective. Personally, I think that there's a chicken/egg situation where free AI versions are a subpar representation that makes skeptics view AI as a whole as over-hyped. OTOH, the people who use the better models experience the benefits first hand, but are seen as AI zealots that are having the wool pulled over there eyes.

  • Any thoughts on the paragraph following your excerpt:

    The most persuasive way you can demonstrate the reality of AI, though, is to describe how it is already being used today. Not in speculative sci-fi scenarios, but in everyday offices and laboratories and schoolrooms. And not in the ways that you already know — cheating on homework, drawing bad art, polluting the web — but in ones that feel surprising and new.

    With that in mind, here are some things that AI has done in 2024.

  • Google Pixel 6, 7, and Fold will officially get two more years of Android OS updates

    Jump

  • As a Grapehene user, increasing the security updates would've been great but I suppose that the existing 5 years will do just fine.

  • Kash me outside.

  • Silly rabbit. Nihilism is for kids.

    It's like the judicial system/police/politicians... We can dislike the organization while realizing that society will become much worse w/o them there in some facet.

  • Can you elaborate on the AT subscriptions?

  • Whoogle: How can I use the preferences URL?

    Jump

  • One alternative is to us SearXNG for similar functionality. The preference tabs work for them. I am using northboot.xyz and adjusted the colors and default engines but you can pick anything from searx.space

  • connect to vps

    Jump

  • Keep us posted. I am using tailscale, but plan on transitioning to a VPS running a VPN and/or headscale on it. Your scenarios isn't something I'm familiar w/ but might be a good option

  • Interesting use case. I made the jump from teddit -> redlib last week after the API adjustments

  • Lissen: Audiobookshelf client (Clean Audiobookshelf Player)

    Jump

  • I've been using it. I could never get the official app to play more than one podcast in a row, yet this one does it out the book. I'm a fan altho it's definitely still a WIP
