I’m violently in favor of Big Light™. Really wakes you up, especially the flashbang when you turn it on. 🙃

Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•Scam Altman says it’ll take another year before ChatGPT can start a timer. An $852 billion company, ladies and gentlemen.English
24·22 hours agoOkay, but just to be clear, the problem is not that it can’t do a timer. The problem is that it claims to be able to and even produces a result which looks plausible. It means, you cannot trust it to do anything that you can’t easily verify. If they could fix that overconfidence in a year, it would be much better.
My first thought was bugs and berries looking similar to a marble, but moving water makes a lot of sense. There’s for example also cat fountains you can buy, because some cats won’t drink the still water in a bowl.
Can certainly also see why it got named that… 🙃

3·1 day agoFinde auch erstaunlich wenig im Internet dazu. In mehreren Wörterbüchern geschaut und keinen Eintrag gefunden.
Auf Wikipedia wird es bei Jargon der DDR-Soldaten erwähnt, aber das Wort muss nicht da entstanden sein: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldatensprache_der_NVA

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you respond to "hey, how are you" when you feel like garbage?English
5·1 day ago“As always.” is an old favorite of mine. They’ll assume things are neither particularly good nor bad, when what you mean is that you always feel bad.
A few years ago, there was someone from the customer side who was learning to code, and I was the most seasoned dev in that project, so it was kind of expected of me to give mild feedback when the guy presented what he had coded.
And yeah, at some point, the guy showed off around 2000 lines of Python code in a single function. He explained the whole lot and I just sat there like, what the fuck, I don’t understand a thing.
Thankfully, I wasn’t expected to give much feedback, so I just told the guy that modularization would be important. 🥴I would’ve loved for this to not be a customer situation, so that I could bluntly tell the guy that this seasoned dev is completely flattened by the complexity he deals with, because becoming good is about managing complexity rather than expanding your brain to fit all of it in there.
Expected this to be a physics meme, because yeah, what the heck even is physical matter? It’s just a bunch of fields and waves, probably…

Technology@lemmy.ml•Logic-driven AI could slash energy use by 100x while outperforming today’s most powerful systemsEnglish
3·2 days agoI’ve been wondering, if you could combine LLMs with a logic programming language like Prolog. The latter is actually able to reason through things, you “just” have to express them in Prolog facts and rules.
Well, from doing a quick online search, I’m most certainly not the first person to think of this, which does not surprise me at all…

vegan@lemmy.world•Scientists find way to make healthier and ‘oozier’ vegan cheeseEnglish
20·3 days agoWould be nice, if we’d find a way to actually put proteins into there. Feels quite pointless to eat vegan cheese, when it’s just starch and fat. Might as well eat some more bread at that point. Or, you know, snack some nuts…
Yeah, I’m aware. Just sharing that the article author kind of wrote an even worse sounding sentence, and I can’t help but feel that !theyknew@lemmy.sdf.org.

Gaming@beehaw.org•This AI startup envisions '100 million new people' making videogamesEnglish
8·3 days agoYeah, in particular, anything close to 100 million users presumes that non-gamedevs will use this. For anything beyond simple variations of existing games, like e.g. “Skyrim with spears”, you need to have an actual understanding of game design. It is not enough to have cool ideas.
So, I really don’t see many non-gamedevs using this. Especially when they can pay less to play a properly designed game.
Wikipedia has a decent summary in the History section here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milk#History
Key points, if I’m understanding things correctly:
- Early domestication was for meat, leather and draft animals, not for milk.
- Milk consumption started in South West Asia and later stuck around in Europe, because people there had already settled for agriculture. I think, Middle East was more nomadic?
- The Middle East also had camels as an alternative milk source, and camel milk contains somewhat less lactose (4.6% vs. 3.5–4.5%), according to this: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8117040/
So that might’ve also affected things somewhat? 🫠
The subtitle, from where the screenshot is from, is:

That is precisely what it is, yeah. I found it funny to post it here without context, because it just seems completely absurd to make eggs glow in the dark.
