Good job Mr president. Now you’ve helped Russia with a few things.

1. If they know where the sub’s are, they now know if you lie or tell the truth about the sub’s.
2. If they didn’t know where the sub’s are, they now know where they probably weren’t, and where they may be going
3. In either case, they know you’ve fucked with their patrol routes, which may give them yet another advantage with finding them; or seeing how you influence their routes

I work in the education space and my biggest worry is the next generation losing the ability to critically think.

Just like how Gen X is much better at mental math than Millennials because the invention of pocket calculators / calculators on phones made math trivial; I think AI is going to trivialize critical thinking. We (as a Millennial) still had to hunt for a correct answer to our problems, which forced us to question possible answers we found and used our critical thinking skills to determine if it was a valid answer or not. With AI though, you type in your question and it’ll spit out an answer. For easy questions - it’s great. But for anything a little more nuanced, it struggles still. So if we don’t develop our critical thinking skills on easy questions, I wonder how we’ll do on the harder questions

Is PipePipe still working for you? I’ve been having issues with yt-dlp since YT released an update a few months ago

I usually only keep documents and media. Programs can be redownloaded and reinstalled (and it might be better to reinstall them in case you move to a new OS anyway to ensure compatibility).

For docker specifically, only keep stuff that’s specific for your instance; which you normally setup as an external volume anyway. Docker is designed such that you should be able to nuke the container, and all persistent data is restored via an external volume on the host. If you’re not doing that, you should immediately go and set that up now (to get the data out safely, setup a volume connection such that the container path is new - that way you don’t accidentally destroy what’s there, copy the stuff you need out, then readjust the path so it’s correct)

As an educator myself, I agree with all of the points they mentioned in the article. I’m seeing the affects right now of students who have over-used AI, that are losing the ability to critically think, and inability to create well-structured essays. I’m not a proficient writer by any means (my course is a research course so the focus is on the research, not on the writing itself), but students have submitted essays with paragraphs of absolute nonsense. It’s strange - sometimes paragraphs will initially seem like it’s making a point, but won’t end up actually making it.

As much as I hate the slop that comes across my desk now, this is the world we live in today. I’ve tried boycotting it, but it doesn’t work; Students will use AI anyway. The worst part is that sometimes it’ll clearly be AI, but I don’t have any tools to prove it. I can’t prove it, so they just lose marks on shit writing.

Instead of trying to fight against new tech, I think this is one of those things where we need to teach how and when to appropriately use AI; and restructure courses to enforce the new teaching methods. There is a time and place for LLMs; but it’s a slow process to readjust courses for it.

This was from the concert. Pretty packed

I’m in the same boat with a few others here when it comes to some games like Halo and Fallout. But I feel like I’m on the brink with 2 new ones:

• Doom: I played the original when I was a kid and got bullied for it (or probably being a general nerd). 2016 and Eternal were really popular and the franchise took off; but Dark Ages feels off. I played Dark Ages for a bit, put it down, and haven’t picked it up since. I think Doom is going down the shitter, especially what they did to Mick Gordon.
• Mother Mother (a band): My SO and I love their music for how unique and interesting it is; and we went to one of their first concerts at a small venue when they came into town ~10 years ago ish? Must have been <500 people. Generally no one else liked their music we shared it with, so we kept it to ourselves. Now? We went to another one a few months ago and it was at a HUGE stadium; absolutely packed. I think one of their songs went viral on TikTok - My Daddy’s got a gun. We’re proud of what they’ve accomplished, but really hope they don’t lose their identity in trying to become even more popular.

Plz no…

Vim ftw!

This is rreeaaalllyy close to what I want. However, it’s missing WordPress. I think I’ll set it up and play with it anyway just to see though…
