I thought I heard that California had a law requiring cancelling be just as easy as signing up? Is that not the case? (Assuming the name of the gym is an indicator of the city it's based in, and not the state or country.)
At the risk of sounding like an overly obsequious AI… You know what, you're completely right. I'm honestly not sure what use case I was imagining when I wrote that last comment.
That is a reasonable exception to no-AI policies in research papers and newspaper articles, but not for Wikipedia. As a tertiary source, Wikipedia has a strict "no original research" policy. Using AI to provide examples of AI output would be original research, and should not be done.
Quoting AI output shared in primary and secondary sources should be allowed for that reason, though.
The content is CC licensed, but they are trying to block AI scraping because it overloads their servers. They have a paid API that uses a lot less compute for both Wikipedia and the AI, as well as being a revenue source for Wikipedia.
the user needs to be smart enough to do whatever they're asking anyway
I'm gonna say that's ideal but not quite necessary. What's needed is that the user is capable of properly verifying the output. Which anyone who could do it themselves definitely can, but it can be done more broadly. It's an easier skill to verify a result than it is to obtain that result. Think: how film critics don't necessarily need to be filmmakers, or the P=NP question in computer science.
Both Lemmy and Piefed support it, though weirdly unlike the alt text field when submitting an image post, this syntax only adds alt text, so only screen readers will see it—users can't view the text on hover.
I'm not sure what you mean. Nobody's talking about contracts?
Here's a link to the song. Or on YouTube, if you prefer.
It's pretty great, in the way of Internet culture of the mid-aughts, the same time period from which the Chuck Norris memes originate.
It's not good for large architectural issues but it can point out nuanced issues in single files that often wouldn't be caught otherwise
Yeah I agree. It's sometimes good at code smells, though sometimes it can be straight-up wrong in ways that are actually surprising, so it always requires a human in the loop. It's not good at larger-scale architectural decisions, and I'd also add that it's usually not capable of understanding the intent behind business logic.
Pauline says what most Australians think
This is the real problem IMO. She says what they think. Because they're racist, and project that onto others, assuming it must be everyone.
I think the best tactic is redirection. They obviously have a lot of anger, and thanks to Hanson and the broader right-wing media climate, that anger gets directed towards immigrants. But if you can seek to redirect the anger where it belongs—to the billionaire class—without actually attempting to call out Hanson in too explicit a way (risking them getting defensive, as you observed, resulting in the backfire effect where they double down and reinforce their previous beliefs), that can help.
I think it's very notable that One Nation voters tend to preference LNP and Labor at much closer to a 50/50 rate than you might intuitively expect. A lot of them are disillusioned and poorly informed on the issues, rather than being hardcore dedicated True Believers in Hanson's racist cause. And can be reached, if the anger and fear they quite rightly feel are instead directed somewhere productive.
Not that I'm very good at this, mind you. When I'm exposed to them in real life I'm much more likely to do what you did, or to call them out personally. It's something I need to get better at.
