  • Bye, X: Europeans are launching their own social media platform, W

    Jump

  • The initiative to create the social media platform W is supported by an advisory board and former ministers and business representatives, primarily from Sweden.

    That links to an article about ADHD medication. lol

    Well, at least their second source reference makes sense.

    I don't know.

    /edit: From the article:

    Anna Zeiter, CEO of W, has told Bilanz.ch that W stands for “We.” Meanwhile, the first of the Vs that make up W stands for “Values,” and the second for “Verified.”

    lol

  • Why are programmers so rude to beginners?

  • There are shit people everywhere. Focus on the good people and positive spaces.

  • Android won't kill sideloading after all, but new verification rules will make it harder

    Jump

  • The company says it is now developing an “advanced flow that allows experienced users to accept the risks of installing software that isn’t verified.” This installation flow will include safeguards to protect people who are being coerced into installing a dangerous app, or tricked by a scammer, along with “clear warnings to ensure users fully understand the risks involved.”

    IIRC we already had to enable a setting and confirm a warning popup. What are they gonna do? Add more popups? A captcha-"puzzle"? Less easy to accept dialogs?

  • Bending Spoons laid off almost everybody at Vimeo yesterday | Hacker News

  • What makes you say that? The Business Insider source from the comments on the linked page doesn't talk about AI at all. But describes how they were bought, by a firm that does this cycle of buy and layoff.

  • by its owners

    They have new owners, apparently.

    Seems to be a typical buyout into milking and eroding cycle.

  • What are some good media that un-glorify conflict?

    Jump

  • I haven't watched it, but They Shall not Grow Old (2018) (TMDB) may also be of interest.

    A user review says it takes a neutral position, and while it shows negative consequences, it also shows people liking comadery etc. So not sure if it would serve your goals in particular.

  • Do you feel like popular media using a game of Chess to depict a "battle of wits" to be too cliche/cringe?

  • and i’m a friggin moron.

    That's what you think. But we think you're a genius!

  • The Anime Grave of the Fireflies (AniDB) is a heart-wrenching telling of the impact and consequences of war.

    Come and See (TMDB), a 1985 soviet anti-war film. I haven't watched it yet, but I've seen it mentioned multiple times as significant or exceptional, heart-wrenching. (Looks like other comments mention it as well, as expected. :P)

    I'm a bit disappointed I can't recall much else right now, and of different kinds than just the misery of war. Two other anime pop into my head, but the aspects asked for aren't a major part of them.

    There are many videos and reports of Ukraine military defense operations that can show what combat realistically looks like. Even for the righteous, it's a harsh situation. Moral superiority does not help much when you're sitting in trenches, in the situational, practical aspects at least.

  • Over half of enterprise AI stalls on infrastructure mess

  • Shut down before implementation or after trials or use?

  • This CEO laid off nearly 80% of his staff because they refused to adopt AI fast enough. 2 years later, he says he’d do it again

    Jump

  • Sales and marketing is often mostly bullshitting anyway. It also has a lot less risk and constraints associated to generated text having issues. Not surprised they were more on board. The tool is more fitting for those use cases anyway.

  • Tim Cook and Sundar Pichai are cowards - X’s deepfake porn feature clearly violates app store guidelines. Why won’t Apple and Google pull it?

    To take advantage of the full €5,000 off, buyers must sign a purchase or lease agreement by February 28. On top of that, the car needs to be registered no later than June 30.
