because the class system is built into capitalism.

you can’t have unchecked capitalism without an exploited underclass.

and you said it has nothing to do with the economic system, which is false, hence the downvotes…

not necessarily, but it can be a good idea to have a distributed, tamper proof ledger of transactions.

that way anyone can provide proof for basically anything to do with the service: payment, drive, location, etc.

it might also have advantages from a security perspective for riders and drivers.

there are advantages, they’re not entirely necessary, but they may well be the best option for a distributed network (i.e.: no central server infrastructure, at least not beyond some simple software repository for downloads/updates)

yes, in the sense that they have negative elevation ;)

+1 for everything: literally saves my sanity

Also let me emphasize this: for every discord server shut down like this, there are 100+ servers with almost the same purpose that still exist and will continue to for at least the next 3y.

you completely missed the point here:

the issue that those aren’t around NOW, the issue is that they WILL inevitably disappear eventually and every shred of knowledge platformed there will be irretrievably lost to the void.

discord is a black hole for information:

it sucks information in and deletes it from existence.

that’s why it’s bad.

the time frame doesn’t really matter here.

Tell me if those companies that experienced more productivity, why did they not continue to implement it?

they did. 80% of them did exactly that!

it works exactly as expected, and the companies that did switch to a 32h-week model did see increased productivity, and 80% chose to keep the 32h-week model.

read the study.

wrsl damit die direkte übersetzung ins englische einfacher zu verstehen ist

got curious, googled it, here’s something interesting:

https://news.usask.ca/articles/research/2018/u-of-s-study-hones-in-on-causes-of-ms-disability.php

seems genetic. which makes sense.

apparently that region just got unlucky with its gene pool, though, as the news release states: more research is necessary in order to be certain.

being caused by environmental chemicals hasn’t been definitively ruled out, but it’s not looking likely

(btw, bravo on an actually readable press release by a university!)

Meaning what?

meaning the models training data is what lets you work around or improve on that bias. without the training data, that’s (borderline) impossible. so in order to tweak models and further development, you need to know what exactly went into the model, or you’ll spend a lot of wasted time guessing around.

I omitted requirements on freely sharing it as implied, but otherwise?

you disregarded half of what makes an AI model. the half that actually results in a working model. without the training data, you’d only have some code that does…something.

and that something is entirely dependent on the training data!

so it’s essential, not optional, for any kind of “open source” AI, because without it you’re working with a black box. which is by definition NOT open source.

all models carry bias (see recent gemini headlines for an extreme example), and what exactly those are can range from important to extremely important, depending on the use case!

it’s also important if you want to iterate on a model: if you use the same data set and train the model slightly differently, you could end up with entirely different models!

these are just 2 examples, there’s many more.

also, you are thinking of LLMs, which is just one kind of model. this legislation applies to all AI models, not just LLMs!

(and your definition of open source is…unique.)

so you’re basically saying it talked itself squarely into uncanny valley?

i honestly didn’t consider that would be an issue for LLMs, but in hindsight…yeah, that’s gonna be a problem…

oh, damn, you’re right!

i got that mixed up; i thought ranked choice also includes proportional representation, because it frees up your secondary vote to be for whoever you want it to be, without pressure to vote for a canditate that “has a chance of winning”, thus alleviating the issue of strategic voting…but that’s pretty much the only thing it does.

but the proportional representation is tied to the way mandates/seats are distributed, which isn’t tied to the how the vote works.

so if the senate still had the same number of seats per state, it wouldn’t fix representation, because the weight of the votes still wouldn’t be equal…

yeah, sorry for the confusion…long day…but thanks for the polite correction!

gerrymandering is rendered obsolete by points 1 and 2 on the list…so that’s already included in the OP ;)

the reason gerrymandering is a thing, is because of the first-past-the-post/winner-takes-all voting system, which ranked choice replaces.

ranked choice allows propotional representation, which also fixes the 2 party problem!

edit, also fixes your point 2, because under ranked choice there is only a popular vote (also just known as “a vote”, because there isn’t any other one left)

nvm, got something mixed up…shouldn’t comment when half asleep…

that’s not how this works.

YOU made the claim, YOU back it up.

I’m not doing your homework for you.

crocodiles actually get much bigger than that…think record is somewhere about 7m and about 1.1 metric tonnes!

Doesn’t work.

[citation needed]

I’d say it’s worth a watch!

kinda gives a different perspective on the world it’s set in (until the end, where it gets very “the boys”-like, but not in a bad way)

Patch 6 only really broke the script extender (well hotfix #18 really)

nvm, just checked, it’s up to date! (hotfix #19 is supported!)

pretty much everything is up to date!

pretty sure ATM9 recommended minimum RAM is 10GB…i have it at 12GB.

but i also run it at about 100fps and view distance set around 16 with shaders…

there’s probably already a tamperMonkey script out there, check greasyFork or something
