Ildsaye [they/them]

Calculators’ whole deal is that they give consistent, predictable results and can be relied on. And there was never a calculator bubble resting on the premise that they’d make engineers obsolete.

The professional programmers I know all agree that correcting all the accumulated slop code will, in its own right, create demand for human engineers for a long time to come. But firms are going to have to scrounge for the capital to rehire the laid-off engineers, because they aren’t getting back the capital they sunk into corporate LLM subscriptions.

It will always mean the project of democratization and uprooting oligarchy, per its origin, as far as I’m concerned. Seems to me a lot of history goes with it if that ground is surrendered.

I will continue to recognize that Marxism-Leninism is the most proven means of democratization and uprooting oligarchy.

Once again the thoughts about the children are Epstein’s thoughts

I appreciate the correction. That’s my signal to do another push into the books.

Workers are, as a rule, not paid the cost of their labor power denied the full fruits of their labor. The scam of capitalism is that workers are usually paid a small fraction of the value they generate for the company. Some of that value must necessarily go to material inputs, maintenance, and upgrades of the workplace, as well as contribution to necessary public services; some goes to the worker; but the bulk of it goes to owners and shareholders for no good reason.

If you have a small basin or watertight bin, foot baths can pull a lot of heat out of your bloodstream pretty quickly.

I’m not sure who the target audience is for this piece. The explanations don’t break things down enough for the kind of laypersons who use Ollama to follow along and get these alternatives running.

On the cool part of Lemmy, imperialists are first toyed with by the users like a cat batting around a bug, and are then promptly banned

Interesting, but that leads to a more fundamental query. Why was genAI involved at all? This could easily have been made using the original poster.
