To me, a crazy straw is just a straw. Just a peek into my twisted mind.

Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla warns that a federal probe into whether it exaggerated the range of its cars may lead to a ‘material adverse impact on our business’English
23·2 years agoWhat is a single thing about Twitter that has gotten better? Selling my Tesla for an electric Mustang was the best choice I’ve made in a while.
I don’t give really a shit about him, but from the dropoff in Twitter’s usage and value to production and publicity issues at Tesla and cutting off the Ukraine army’s access to Starlink, it seems there’s, well, a lot to hate about him. And like he might not be that good at his job.

196@lemmy.blahaj.zone•its the end of the rule as we know it
33·2 years agoIn comic, dystopian reality, selling drugs (really just weed) was how I graduated college debt-free, and graduating without debt was the only way I could take out/afford a loan for a house.
So apparently, it’s true what they say, whether planting or selling trees, the best time to do it was 10 years ago. The second best time is now! (Except don’t)
Nah, if that were true you’d see lots of moldy spots. After all, it’d be spoiled.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Will the world ever stop being anti-intellectual?
284·2 years agoPerhaps not the whole world, but I’m many/most countries, the larger structures, like government and business, absolutely are anti-intellectual. Nice to have an academic friend group, but that doesn’t change the fact that capitalism makes education less accessible in order to rely on an undereducated workforce, and then politicians push it even further for the sake of easy control.
Cliche, but love is the only thing that feels good and worthwhile 100% of the time. Excitement, thrills, ambition, sensory pleasure, all of these and everything else feel wasted or actively negative if you’re not in the right context for them. But there’s never a time that a genuine feeling of shared love feels bad, whether you’re in the best or worst or most random situation.
Might sound like a cop out, but I’d argue that any love that does feel bad is actually more desire than love. Just my take, but I know philosophers have much more thought out ones.

This is the move. You can cut/pull apart a cotton ball and put some in there so they don’t rattle around in there too

Yes, the internet is much bigger than it was in 2003, and it needs more complex protective tools. The fact that you haven’t noticed cloudflare when it is working is a sign that it is, well, working.
And the fact that your favorite sites aren’t down more often is yet another sign. Downtime due to DDOS attacks alone would be so much greater without cloudflare than downtime due to cloudflare currently is. Your perspective is a pure lack of knowledge and an excess of confirmation bias.
I use a chamois cloth, seems to pick up oil/smudges even better that microfiber and need less washing. Also super easy to wash when it does need it. I basically just cut a dollar bill sized section off a natural off-brand sham-wow and it works better than anything else I’ve used

Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft Publishes Garbled AI Article Calling Tragically Deceased NBA Player "Useless"English
81·3 years agoAs someone who works in content marketing, this is already untrue at the current quality of LLMs. It still requires a LOT of human oversight, which obviously it was not given in this example, but a good writer paired with knowledgeable use of LLMs is already significantly better than a good content writer alone.
Some examples are writing outside of a person’s subject expertise at a relatively basic level. This used to take hours or days of entirely self-directed research on a given topic, even if the ultimate article was going to be written for beginners and therefore in broad strokes. With diligent fact-checking and ChatGPT alone, the whole process, including final copy, takes maybe 4 hours.
It’s also an enormously useful research tool. Rather than poring over research journals, you can ask LLMs with academic plug-ins to give a list of studies that fit very specific criteria and link to full texts. Sometimes it misfires, of course, hence the need for a good writer still, but on average this can cut hours from journalistic and review pieces without harming (often improving) quality.
All the time writers save by having AI do legwork is then time they can instead spend improving the actual prose and content of an article, post, whatever it is. The folks I know who were hired as writers because they love writing and have incredible commitment to quality are actually happier now using AI and being more “productive” because it deals mostly with the shittiest parts of writing to a deadline and leaves the rest to the human.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Probably a stupid question, but will we ever have something like a microwave to make things cold? Is there a reason this can't exist?
51·3 years agoYeah that seems bad lol. I feel like there has to be an option in between $200(creami) and $7000(pacojet) that can avoid chunks of plastic though
