  • The largest study of AI use by undergrads is in, revealing disparities in access — and in cheating

    Jump

  • Nah, these are Gen A studies and pre school. But it's giving insight into tailend Z. Also giving insight to older generations failing in attention-span and critical thought/attention. Like self-induced cognitive stagnation. Oversaturation of mental disorder diagnosis due to their broadening grey area, but sleep deprivation, favouring dopamine over the other "happy" releases. Especially in males that have less biological releases of oxytocin.

    Ugh, that didn't even make sense to me reading it back. I'll try find a public breakdown of one but it means I gotta... deeo hreath... search engine "scientific sources"...

    Edit: Nope. Clickticles of opinionated bullshit and one public paper that's had 138 citations in under a year. Which would be great if academia worked that well in its sharing of knowledge, but it's suspiciously too many.

  • Studies have been done that it can be reversed and cogniviry is dorment, but requires a few weeks of "cold turkey".

    Sorry, I wish I could give more but I'm kind of drunk and can't be bothered finding papers outside the stupid academia paywall shit.

    But the main concern is actually the culture. Like, you can get off heroin, but not if heroin is the norm for everyone around you in your immediate social groups. Then after that, obviously the catch up of a 13 or 14 year old mind already outside of the peak of learning or "impressionable" period typically under 7. E.g. it's easier to teach a child two languages than a teen or adultnfor that reason.

    Gonna be a hell of a time to be the elderly generation needing community assistance from the younger generation.

    Controversial, but I much prefer suicide happy at 75 than make it to 85-90 in a situation worse than current aged care

  • Your reward for a job well done

  • I'm in the fortunate position where boss people are impressed by how much work I do to help the others struggling with having bad bosses.

    It pays well but plateaus as you start running out of bosses to defeat. Then you get in this awkward situation where everyone a tier below the c-suite wants you, but don't understand that you aren't up for sale in their game.

    Been in NFP for a decade and people are still the same. But in NFP you get the leftovers that were never smart enough to be touched for a corporate role. Their idiocy cascades down to a workforce of 15,000 people that have to endure it; people that signed up to help others.

    So, that's my job. Fuck the money—40% of my paycheck is donated—and my time is spent being real good at helping others by showing up the overpaid morons that make life hard. And surfing. And trains. And birdwatching and trees.

    I'm intoxicated an am oversharing. o7

    Fuck bosses. They're so useless, weak, and easy to defeat. All you gotta do is break their "network" with logic, and if that fails, a unionised force.

    I somehow started rambling again...

    Great move. I should watch it again.

    PS: Don't go looking into the director of this movie. He was mentioned by name in the "Open Secret" documentary.

  • How do I manually check for BIOS security updates from my motherboard manufacturer?

    Jump

  • You don't need anything but a USB with the update files downloaded to them. Boot to BIOS, choose update, point to USB, done.

    Definitely don't reset or power off while it's updating itself, though.

    ASUS will have the steps and files for your mobo model on their site. It's very simple.

  • You need the paycheck

    Linus Torvalds says AI-powered bug hunters have made Linux security mailing list ‘almost entirely unmanageable’

  • He then offered an opinion on how best to use AI to improve software security.

    “AI tools are great, but only if they actually help, rather than cause unnecessary pain and pointless make-believe work,” he wrote. “Feel free to use them, but use them in a way that is productive and makes for a better experience.”

    “The documentation may be a bit less blunt than I am,” he added, “but that's the core gist of it.”

    “So just to make it really clear: If you found a bug using AI tools, the chances are somebody else found it too. If you actually want to add value, read the documentation, create a patch too, and add some real value on top of what the AI did. Don't be the drive-by ‘send a random report with no real understanding’ kind of person. OK?”

    Hey. Voting for the least shittiest option is a start for the people, yeah? 👍 Chin up! They've done it a few times, they'll do it again. Hopefully not needing a WW to piggyback on this time, despite all current attempts.

    Accountability and freedom and all of that stuff that made the world envious of the idea for a good run! It's still there and always has been!!
