Just ignore what random people write on X. They write all kinds of stupid opinions there.

… and most of the world. I guess that’s the reason why we still have Taiwan as a country.

I guess with electronics there is a lot to be desired. GPUs, CPUs other chips and a lot of components. Entire smartphones and laptops.

Though what I’d really like to see “manufactured” in Europe is a big internet platform. Something like WhatsApp, Instagram or YouTube, TikTok or whatever.

Excessive Maneuvers?

Sure. I mean we seem to be a bit different and have different visions. So I’m not sure if I’m the correct person to take your idea to pieces and add my spin on it… That could take away from a clear vision and turn it into a mess. Maybe it’s better if I do my thing and you do yours… But I’m not sure about that. My DMs are open, so feel free to DM me. I’m just not sure whether I’m able to contribute.

Uh, seems today I mainly empathize with the downvoted comments. I like to believe I like people for who they are and less so how they present or what term they choose for that. But then I don’t have any first-hand experience with this and I don’t know a lot of details about this story. And there are people who are in relationships for lots of reasons. Outer appearence, personal qualities, money, circumstances… That probably changes the picture. But I’d agree. If it’s personal qualities, then there’s more to it.

I mean I don’t live in the USA, so these extremes are way toned down here. But yeah, I’m always talking to people and I’ll tell them science is the method for truth, and it’s important to think. (And to oppose immoral acts, like killing your children… And this isn’t even a controversy amongst sane people 😅)

I meant both sex and gender. They regularly fail to tell me a lot for my own real life. I like some people and dislike others and it’s easier for me to talk to / work with / collaborate or empathize depending on various circumstances. Personality traits, shared goals… Maybe sharing something or it’s the opposite of that. I believe gender or sex or identity is a bit overrated and so is stereotyped thinking for a lot of applications. Or the need to conform to a stereotype. Dress and identify however you like, make sure to give your children an electronics kit, a plastic excavator and a princess dress… And unless that’s really important for some niche application, don’t feel the urge to look into people’s pants and check what’s in there.

You’re welcome. I mean it’s kind of a factual question. Is gender an indicator on its own? If yes, then the rest is just how statistics and probability work… And that’s not really a controversy. Maths in itself works 🥹

I’d also welcome if we were to cut down on unrelated stuff, stereotypes and biases. Just pick what you like to optimize for and then do that. At least if you believe in the free market in that way. Of course it also has an impact on society, people etc and all of that is just complex. And then women and men aren’t really different, but at the same time they are. And statistics is more or less a tool. Highly depends on what you do with it and how you apply it. It’s like that with most tools. (And LLMs in the current form are kind of a shit tool for this if you ask me.)

To be honest, I (personally) am fine with that. I remember the times before SystemD and it just got so much easier managing the services and dependencies and so on. I genuinely prefer running SystemD on my servers and computers at home. And I don’t have a strong opinion on my display server, I just use whatever works. But all of that is just my perspective.

Sure, I remember that. Was transfered to the Apache Software Foundation and they never really touched it again. It looked super promising and fancy.

Right. If it’s true that women statistically outperform men (with same application documents), it’d be logical to prefer them just on gender alone. Because they likely turn out to be better.

Issue is they probably want to pattern-recognize something like merit / ability / competence here. And ignore other factors. Which is just hard to do.

LLMs reproducing stereotypes is a well researched topic. They do that due to what they are. Stereotypes and bias in (in the training data), bias and stereotypes out. That’s what they’re meant to do. And all AI companies have entire departments to tune that, measure the biases and then fine-tune it to whatever they deem fit.

I mean the issue aren’t women or anything, it’s using AI for hiring in the first place. You do that if you want whatever stereotypes Anthropic and OpenAI gave to you.

Feels like an opportunity for a Linux advertisement: Linux is awesome. Rarely force-feeds you stuff. And while at it, change email providers as well. The big (cloud) services like Microsoft and Google aren’t great. Never have been, and AI is just the most recent top of the iceberg.

Crazy how broad and vague the term “Christian” is. Covers people who pretty much act like me, to these people. And they don’t really have anything in common.

Uh, weird behaviour. Maybe he already unlearned how to think or be creative. I’ve never seen anything like that, but I’ve seen people where the light are on but nobody’s home. That leads to the same situation. I wouldn’t know what to respond either. That’s just the end of that conversation.

I think after initial installation, you open a browser with the post-installation step and configure a username and password there. I’m not entirely sure, it’s been some time since I did it. But depending on installation method, I don’t think it has a provided password.

General password advice: Check caps lock, and if you use like a German keyboard if ‘z’ and ‘y’ are swapped.

Btw, since people always confuse temporary suspension and permanent bans: That’s not a premanent ban. You can post in that community again, you just need to wait 3 hours. And sure, straight to hell for nazis.

I’ve briefly tried both Garage and MinIO and they both work as advertised. Though I did it for experimentation on self-hosted services, so I don’t have any experience with large-scale or real-world use.
