I use OSMAnd+. The searching is the biggest problem, so I will contribute to StreetComplete in an effort to improve the areas in which I travel.
When I do need a location that isn't found in OSM, I'll grab the coords from LatLong.net and copy/paste them into OSM. When I get to the destination, I'll pop open street complete and fill in details in the hopes that next time will be better.
Not MENSA, but came to the unfortunate realization that I'm on the skinny side of the intelligence bell curve late in life. For me, I was frustrated that I could not easily relate my thoughts and ideas to others. I'd just get a blank stare or worse. I figured that I was dumb and everybody else knew something that I didn't. So I kept quiet and kept all my thoughts to myself.
Many years later, I tried again to voice my thoughts and ideas, but would use lots of examples and references to areas where my listener may be familiar. That seemed to work.
It was only when I started talking about my feelings to others when I realized that things in my head work differently. I'm able to absorb information faster and deeper but also extrapolate those learnings to other unrelated areas.
My mantra is "plan to be hacked". Whether this is a good backup strategy, a read-only VM, good monitoring or serious firewall rules.
Do you remember the smell of a fresh box of crayons?
It doesn't make sense to me that I don't like drinking water. When I lived in the desert, I would drink it all the time, but it's a habit that I've fallen out of. Strangely, I went back to the desert on a trip and immediately resumed drinking water again.
For me, I don't like the taste. I can taste the chlorine and fluroride and other stuff in the water. I have an RO system with carbon filter and then I need to have it near freezing. Even then, I need to put stuff in it like berries, cucumber or mint. I don't drink pop, sports drinks or other stuff like that. I do drink tea and coffee.
Yeah, my doctor told me that I'm dehydrated, so I'm trying.
It sounds like somebody needs to spend more time watching documentaries on the mating habits of freshwater fish!
Are you referring to the AI search results? If so, I've fallen into a similar strategy. I'll search for something, usuaply how to do something then read the AI result. If it's what I'm looking for, then I'll click through to the referenced articles. The AI result is usually too vague. Part of my problem is probably bad searching skills on my part. I'll often find what I'm looking for way down the first page or sometimes the second page of results. The AI cuts through that searching page after page or tells me that I need to change my search terms.
As some of the other posters argued, this is a slippery slope to censorship by those in power, which does not allow for dissenting opinions to propogate.
Given that free speech doesn't mean that anybody needs to listen, I feel that the problem (and solution) lies in the conduit for the free speech. I don't understand the complexities of the laws but have wondered if adjusting the laws to hold entities accountable for their actions would have a positive effect. For example, an idiot shouting from the town square has a limited audience, but if a newspaper picks up the message and promotes it, aren't they partially responsible for that message?
It gets tricky with opinion pieces, but we already have an established mechansm with newspapers' opinion pages. One potential problem is that the current media companies enjoy no accountability, no content creation costs and profits from advertisers.
On that topic, I'd even go so far as to argue that advertisers share in the accountability of providing funds to organizations that support harmful messages.
There's a lot more to this but would be interesting to see a country who has done it and if it had a net positive effect.
Probably not useful to you, but I've been using the pics that I deem political as a way to vet the accounts that want to politicize everything and I block them.
Keep the (good, nonpolitical) pics coming!
I suppose that makes perfect sense. A corporation is an accountability sink for owners, board members and executives, so why not also make AI accountable?
I was thinking more along the lines of the "human in the loop" model for AI where one human is responsible for all the stuff that AI gets wrong despite it physically not being possible to review every line of code an AI produces.
I was thinking about this the other day and don't think it would happen any time soon. The people who put the CEO in charge (usually the board members) want someone who will make decisions (that the board has a say in) but also someone to hold accountable for when those decisions don't realize profits.
AI is unaccountable in any real sense of the word.
This worked well for me when I could see the screw and it's orientation was the same as me viewing it. If I was turning it and it was rotated 90° away from me, I'd get it wrong. In physics class, we studied electromagnetic forces and I learned about the right hand rule which for some odd reason works better for me than righy-tighty. The Wikipedia article is long and the TL;DR is that if you use your right hand and turn in the direction of your fingers, the screw will move in the direction of your thumb.
Of course lefties are SOL as are folks without thumbs.
