Someone told me that Chat-GPT saved them hours of work...

My response: If Chat-GPT is saving you hours, are you now able to work less hours and instead spend that time doing other things? That should be the primary goal of AI... Give humans more time to do as they please, not just cram even more work into the same amount of hours.

@rasterweb at the very least when you automate something 50% of the time should go back to the employee.

impostor syndrome sure is a thing.
you judge your work so harshly like itโ€™s not perfect enough and all that, then people tell you they love it.
itโ€™s easier to see in other people than yourself but everyone has it.
perfection is a myth. imperfect things are more meaningful.

@alienmelon so this. it helps a bit to think about how buggy some of the best classic video games are, and theyโ€™re still amazing!

I made some comments on a Palestina demonstration video on youtube, but they got deleted/hidden.. video uploader says they didn't do it. Other people also complain of their comments being gone..

Does Google delete pro-Palestinian comments? The pro Zionist ones are still up ๐Ÿ˜  Would love to hear if other Youtube users recognize this! Kind of a big thing if true imho..

ps. my comments didn't include any "bad language" whatsoever! It was in a normal conversation..

If you're a fan of the original "Super Mario Allstars" for the SNES, you should also know about its famous "brick bug", which is actually super annoying once you realize it's there. Luckily, there's a simple fix!

Here's a good explanation:

Ik pleit voor een Amerikaans systeem van government lockdowns. Een demissionair kabinet dat niet langer het volk vertegenwoordigd kan alles zonder verantwoording doen. Een financiรซle lockdown verhoogd daarnaast de druk op formerende partijen. De formatie duurt zo veel te lang.

Wat mij betreft gaan we daarnaast naar een opzet waarbij de grootste partij alle verdeling doet en de rest dat maar moet accepteren zodat ze twee dagen na de uitslag aan het werk kunnen.

hbons,
@hbons@mastodon.social avatar

@martijn uiteindelijk is de Tweede Kamer toch de baas? als ze echt willen kunnen ze het demissionaire kabinet wegsturen, dus storm in glas water denk ik.

hbons,
@hbons@mastodon.social avatar

@martijn de hoofdreden van de duur lijkt mij dat er een fascistische partij zonder leden en een clownsprogramma, die toevallig de grootste is maar lang geen meerderheid heeft, meedoet aan de formatie.

hbons,
@hbons@mastodon.social avatar

@martijn het is inhoudelijk maar ik heb wat absurde dingen toegevoegdโ€ฆ

het lijkt mij ondemocratisch om de groote partij (zonder meerderheid) zoveel macht te geven. krijg je toestanden als in het VK waar een partij waar 40% op stemt alle macht heeft. als bijeffect gaan waarschijnlijk partijen fuseren of verbintenissen aan om maar 1e te worden en hou je 2 grote partijen over.
