I got nothing to hide. Or so the saying goes.

I think for the big apps like Whatsapp and Facebook it makes sense that the companies want to hide the features that give users control beyond the "standard" way of using the app in places where they cannot find it.

Coming from my perspective a little. Iran is a part of BRICS now and Lula has defended Iran in latest interviews. Let's see how things develop and if Iran representatives will come to Rio (for the BRICS Summit). This is troubling.

Microsoft does research on cognitive decline in use of LLMs: "Nope."

Google does research on cognitive decline in use of LLMs: "Nope."

MIT does research on cognitive decline in use of LLMs: "Fine, I'll read your goddamn opinion on the matter."

Edited: The article is good, I recommend it. However, I find this "brain-only" approach to be too biased. Students and people in general cannot learn without external information. This approach assumes people have studied the topics beforehand and have knowledge in it, which causes biases on the study and beats the purpose of it, which is proving people do not learn using LLMs!

The article criticized the closing of the Internet by Tehran, but the Internet is clear vulnerability that can be exploited in times of war.

I know this isn't a popular opinion, but maybe the Executive has too much power. Power needs to be more decentralized. Will policies that make sense come out of this? I'm no political scientist, but this amount of power isn't good.

The article has its ups and downs. Mostly downs.

Don't make me believe this is the kind of talk that's going on Twitter.

Not that fine, though. Quality of life came a long way.

We come from the sea.

 

I want to understand my condition of being a software developer better. From creating and contributing freely to public repositories and FOSS to having spurts of unpaid extra work. I want to understand that better without falling into the category of general labor.
