yukijoou ,

there are tons of webring still going these days!

yukijoou ,

i mean, i've never needed to divide the size of a standard sheet of paper - if i need a smaller variant, i can just fold it in half and cut it. when working with paper, it's pretty easy to do physical math, and you rarerly need something that's perfect down to the millimetre

regarding the size- it's just something you learn through life. school supplies lists typically specify the size of notebooks and paper you need to buy in centimetres, so year over year, you quickly learn that A4 is 22:29.7, and the slightly bigger standard notebooks are 24:32

i just assumed people used 3rd party services for ease of use or faster transactions, seems so wild that you'd not be able to send money using your bank to me

here it takes 1-2 business day for a free wire transfer from one bank account to another, and you can do it in your banking app or on the bank's website. you just need to authenticate with your online pin code. you can also pay 1€ to get a <24h transfer

it's honestly much better than using a third party service, since pretty much everyone has a bank account, and pays using a card tied to that account directly

yukijoou ,

yeah, this is a great thing!

i usually make class notes recap on A4 pages, and can then print 2 A5-sized pages side by side on a single standard A4 paper, no need to rework the formatting. messing with the printer options, you can pretty easily get it to do a small booklet off of your standard A4 word document, just need to staple it together!

yukijoou ,

i hate it when they only give out A20 exam sheets

yukijoou ,

huh, yeah, i heard of similar things in the US

here it seems to be worked out through legislation though, rather than private deals, but that means it's much slower to get set in place

yukijoou ,

how so?

yukijoou ,

i mean, celsius has arbitrary numbers too - human is 37°c, ambiant is 17°c, cooking is 180°c, etc.

yukijoou ,

huh, here you only need the other account's IBAN

yukijoou ,

the avreage person also isn't as convincing as a bot we're told is the peak of computer intelligence

yukijoou ,

for it to "hallucinate" things, it would have to believe in what it's saying. ai is unable to think - so it cannot hallucinate

yukijoou ,

because it's a text generation machine..? i mean, i wouldn't say i can prove it, but i don't think anyone can prove it's capable of thinking, much less of reasoning

like, it can string together a coherent sentence thanks to well crafted equations, sure, but i wouldn't qualify that as "thinking", though i guess the definition of "thinking" is debatable

yukijoou ,

huh, i kinda assumed it was a term made up/taken by journalists mostly, are there actual research papers on this using that term?

yukijoou ,

it is absolutely capable to come up with it’s own logical stuff

interesting, in my experience, it's only been good at repeating things, and failing on unexpected inputs - it's able to answer pretty accurately if a small number is even or odd, but not if it's a large number, which indicates it's not reasoning but parroting answers to me

do you have example prompts where it showed clear logical reasoning?

yukijoou ,

well, i just tried it, and its answer is meh --

i asked it to transcribe "zenquistificationed" (made up word) in IPA, it gave me /ˌzɛŋˌkwɪstɪfɪˈkeɪʃənd/, which i agree with, that's likely how a native english speaker would read that word.

i then asked it to transcribe that into japaense katakana, it gave me "ゼンクィスティフィカションエッド" (zenkwisuthifikashon'eddo), which is not a great transcription at all - based on its earlier IPA transcription, カション (kashon') should be ケーシュン (kēshun'), and the エッド (eddo) part at the end should just, not be there imo, or be shortened to just ド (do)

yukijoou ,

my main question is: how much csam was fed into the model for training so that it could recreate more

i think it'd be worth investigating the training data usued for the model

yukijoou ,

YYYY年MM月DD日

embrace the sinographic way.

yukijoou ,

i mean, most arts are about evoking feelings, i don't see how it'd be wrong for art to try to evoke sexual pleasure

yukijoou ,

i mean, i don't know how it is in other countries, but here we literally study art with nude people in it - Liberty Leading the People is part of the 8th grade national curriculum - and looking this up, i even found a teacher's blog about class activities they did on it with 3-5th graders. i also recall having studied paintings depicting people having sex in 8th grade latin class
it's also not uncommon to have statues of naked people in the middle of town centres - and nobody is making a fuss about it "not being art"

it is art, it used to be recognised as art for a long time, but now it seems like more and more people have a double standard, where old art depicting nudity is valid, but modern art depicting nudity isn't

yukijoou ,

lmao. as if the ai was gonna have a better carbon footprint than the small plastic thing you replace every 5-10 years

yukijoou ,

my helping you

okay, this is a personal thing, but i need the source/citation for the 3rd quote. that grammar rule has beeg bugging me for like a month, i need to know where and when this is from, and who wrote this

yukijoou ,

where do you live where stuff's so expensive? genuine question, because honestly, i've never seen such pricing here

most of the stuff i get from amazon (which is, to be fair, not much and mostly non-food/perishables) has free shipping (without prime) to amazon lockers or to your house if you have a >25€ (or maybe >40€ now..?) order

also, may be biased because i live in france, but like, a loaf of bread is at most 3€ here, even in the most remote villages, you'll likely not have for more than 1.30€ for a baguette

yukijoou ,

There are tons of ActivityPub implementations out there already

but none are widely used by such a massive amount of people as threads, and especially people who don't understand/care about spec compliance or even how federation works

honestly, i think in the best scenario, threads will create their own activitypub "fork", and most instances won't want to follow it, forcing the people who were on non-threads instances to chose between going to threads to keep in touch with their threads mutuals, or staying on non-threads instances and no longer having a reliable way of keeping in touch with those people.

worst case would be instances following what meta does and making them the spec dictators pretty much, the spec would become closed source and all other fedi implementations would lag behind in features compared to threads, and they can at any point change the spec and break other instances.

i think the point of defederating with threads isn't just the defederation, but is about sending a message that we don't want to play their game, we want to keep doing our things our ways. if they want to interract with the fediverse, they'll have to play by our rules, we don't want to follow theirs

yukijoou ,

you can definitely back up apps and most files using adb and a computer, and probably even your phone itself by doing adb over the network back to your phone

also, i think there's a way of setting up a different location provider in the developper setings on android!

yukijoou ,

you could, but they definitely pushed you to use a single account everywhere, even logging you in automatically to your google account in chrome if you use it on google search or vice-versa
