nspawn ftw. I tried avoiding systemd until I found out how much scripting it saved me. the more I use it, the more I like it.

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Large Language Models Will Never Be Intelligent, Expert Says
11·2 months agothere’s no emergent behavior in llm’s. your perception that there is, is an anthropomorphism, same as with the idea of prediction. statistically “predicting” the next word based on the frequency of input data isn’t an emergent property, it exists as a staic feature of the algorithm from the start. at a certain level of complexity, llms appear to produce comprehensible text, provided you stop them in time. that’s merely because of the rules of the algorithm. the illusion of intelligence comes merely from being able to select “merged buckets” from the map, which are put together mathematically.
it is a one trick pony that will never become anything else.

72·2 months agoit doesn’t predict, it follows a weighted graph or the equivalent. it doesn’t guess, /dev/urandom input makes the path unpredictable. any case where it looks like it predicts or guesses is purely accidental, and all in the eye of the observer.
further, it only posses knowledge to tthe degree that an encyclopedia does. the prompt is just the equivalent of a hash key pulling a bucket out of a map.
it is literally just a huge database of key-value pairs stored so as to minimize the description length of the values.

1·3 months agoit is no big deal if the package dependency for a library just got swept up in the upgrade cycle. if the needed function call didn’t change, no problems. else you just get a linker error.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027)
21·5 months agopissing off customers never stopped them for decades different versions of office programs ran side by side with no issues. they auto uninstall other versions of office automatically while stopping the install with a big pop up about compatibility issues.
this impacts all businesses using old versions of access programs alongside more new versions of office with newer installers. along with a byzantine licensing model with bizarre “incompatibilities” between the same year versions in different licensing channels, yeah tell me how microsoft won’t piss off corpo and government clients.
they seem to specialize in pissing off corpo and gov clients.

edit: but if you want to get freaky in bash, alias downloads=“pushd ~/Downloads”
probably works in some other shells too

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Is there still any hope for privacy phones? 2025 and beyond
2·5 months agoI was thinking this. With advances in text recognition, they can potentially filter all that data now. Since five eyes is essentially for industrial espionage, google first requiring access to source code to ensure compatibility, and that you can’t really turn off chrome web page sniffing (I have found the disabled chrome app still running, with “force stop” available,) all this makes more sense than the little bit they’d squeeze out of ad revenue chasing people who avoid chrome and google assistant. After all, it isn’t bad actors or people who already buy from google they are spending so much effort on - it is the tech competent.


You forgot to start with shutdown /g
Hope that helps.
