Nazis you say? “After the shock of the 2002 Tarnak Farm incident, the Pentagon reassessed its ‘go pill’ policy. Maybe feeding a daily diet of meth to pilots flying $50 million fighter-bombers was a bad idea after all, they reasoned. Use of amphetamines was phased out in the early 2000s in favor of a new synthetic drug called Modafinil.” https://fherehab.com/learning/amphetamine-history

Thanks for sharing, interesting read and questions. Surely you’ll be down voted here for anything with AI… But c’est la vie.

Ive been doing coding projects in VS code which uses GPT, Claude and Gemini. Woe are the days when my credits are used and only GPT 4.1 is available. Claudes ability to research and architect multi step software solutions is very, very good and it rarely makes messes or spins tires compared to older models from just a few months ago. This is precisely what converted me to ‘whoa - ai’ which is adjacent to ‘pro ai’.

Lately I’ve been experimenting with customizing Gemini via instructions which include a link to a drive folder of md files with specific instructions for different agent tasks, such as performing specific market analysis, doing a news roundup with a specific list of topics and omitting prior reviewed items, etc. The files allow for both complex instructions or lists, as well as some chance to construct memory via logging. Results are a mixed bag, lots of additional function created, lots of mixed results.

Have you considered any tests of more complexity? Something like ‘write a program that…’ I think what will differentiate these models going forward is some have architect capabilities, strategy, insight, decision making, where others are agents - they do specific tasks well but have limits. With that model, the ai architect and it’s ai agents need to work as a team to complete a multi step task.

Got my wife one recently. She like the yoga bits, in guess. But, it’s in the closet.

Wii is still set up…what games are you digging?

Vegeta and Piccolo as ancient Egyptians, boos choice.

Good point. Can only trust the device and service as far as the company. And nobody is giving good reason to trust Cape.

Thanks for the feedback. For clarity, Cape is offering a GrapheneOS installed out of box to the user for a surcharge. This is what connected the title: https://www.cape.co/blog/cape-supports-grapheneos

You’re right. I think the advice stands, but it’s a rougher position.

You’re getting good advice here, especially @Doomsider@lemmy.world

2 months isn’t that long and you should keep your head up and keep trying. Discouragement and lack of effort are the enemy.

I would add, consider your target industries. Different industries have different cycles and levels of available positions. If you’re mostly looking in retail, this might not be the right economy or time of year, etc. One industry that usually has high demand and might overlap with psychology is health care. Assisted living, home health care, and many related non-medical care environments have consistent staffing challenges and don’t require specific degrees in nursing or medical, etc. I paid my way through college that way and learned a lot of life lessons, including the reasons that work isn’t for everyone. YMMV

There are probably some other under employed unglamorous jobs in your area if you look with fresh eyes. And as others said, volunteering some free time could be a win win, doing stuff keeps the spirit up and being involved creates opportunities.

End of life is not a plan, and not a plan to suggest to others. Get some help, and stop offering such advice.

Do you think it’s poor branding in Maduro’s part, or branding that got applied to him for other purposes?

How do you see the impact of the oil resources impacting this as compared to Peru or El Salvador?

So I imagine myself at the future factory in karma heaven trying to decide what I get to be and when.

Humans are interesting, they experience much over a short time, and deeply. Early humans have a visceral and satisfying life, hunting gathering and reproducing. Late humans, which is most of them, have safe stable lives with infinite opportunities around infinite stars.

Middle humans struggle. They multiply and have disease. They reach resource limits and have war. They are a brutal combination of technology and animal tendency which wipes out other humans and predators.

And their triumphs are glorious. From steam to electricity to transistors to space flight in a few generations. They take poetry and teach machines to sing. They make their universe larger by finding how much space is between atoms. They smash the atoms and fuse them together again on the way to their future.

I make my choice. Right there. Right at the middle of the change point. That’s when, that’s where.

Hello friends. Im here for the positive change. Im struggling, its what we do. Enjoy

The underfunded school, or its expensive insurance will pay, raising rates and eroding the service of public education further.

I found out here in CA public schools are paying several percent of total budget to cover liability from the past where kids were harmed.

These are not for profit, these are not businesses. When they pay, the taxpayers pay, and the kids lose service.

But whatever, she got hers. Big smile.

This seems like the most relevant fact that most folks dont know. Games industry is WAY bigger than streaming. Digital media companies know this, and want to get a piece of the market.

• In 2022, the global gaming industry generated an estimated $184.4 billion.

• In 2022, the global recorded music industry generated $26.2 billion.

• In 2022, the global movie industry generated $26 billion in box office revenue.

This is very true for me. Same for a lot of history museums, which are full of historic arts and crafts.

Like, some native art is just old craft, not actually good art to me, but some ancient cultures had a wild perspective and the art matches.

Elbows, gentlemen!

Legends, wish I heard the conversation to go with the pic.
