Dear fedi. Let us not give up our happiness and live through 2025!

The development of LLMs will soon reach the limit of their performance.
Since the accuracy is low for occupying too many computational resources, I believe that the development of SLMs with special standardization and normalization added to the data set by experts in various fields will be in the limelight in the future.

@FlashMobOfOne It's as if they are like the stubborn people I'm used to being around who have a personality that can't be convinced that everything they do has to have a reason.

People in North America and Europe are having a hard time dealing with the Right, a vast religious force in the making. If I were in their shoes, I would still lean toward atheism.

Even those who grew up in the most privileged, billionaire class in the most privileged country in the world, if they consider themselves unhappy, they will attempt suicide, etc.
And that is undoubtedly not a very meaningful activity.
When I thought about it, I still felt that I should be happy.

Japan's declining birthrate and aging society will close roads and other areas in rural mountainous regions to traffic.
Without a budget to maintain roads, people cannot live around them.

The fedi crowd is probably tired of hearing this by now, but VPNs are not secure at all.
Just by using a VPN IP address, you could be misidentified as a cyber criminal.

@madeindex One of my co-workers is a pachinko addict who has created a debt to keep playing. I asked him, "Do you owe anyone money?" “Have you ever borrowed money to play pachinko?" When I asked him via line messenger, he was furious and stopped responding, saying, "Don't meddle anymore about my debts.”

Good evening fedi's.
My colleague who created the debt hated me because I persistently questioned him about the debt.
But I don't have a choice. I can't be too friendly with the people who created the debt.

There are fewer homeless people in Japan than in other countries.
This is because people like the yakuza kidnap homeless people and lock them up in small rooms together, apply for disability pensions and public assistance on their behalf, and then exploit some of the money.

Hello, everyone at fedi.
Well, well. The US presidential election is looking grim so far.

I can understand pornography, but I cannot understand romance.

When most men imagine "romance," even if they are old men, they can't start a story unless the partner is a little girl in her early twenties.

That's why I stopped being exposed to the culture of the category of romance.

Can there be no justice anywhere?
Should we set sail on an adventurous voyage to become pirate kings?

If these billionaires are repeatedly dishonest, isn't it like they are encouraging many others to commit crimes?

@FlashMobOfOne Unlike the case in the U.S., most of the recent robberies here in Japan have been committed by someone advertising jobs in media such as X, and those who applied for them were robbed of their personal information and blackmailed into becoming the perpetrators. In addition, some of those who have carried out robberies have turned themselves in to the police.
What does that mean? It means that they are not enough to pull off the heist on their own.

So when I hear reports of these criminals, I don't think of them as strangers.
They surely saw that they were in a position where they would not be rewarded much for their efforts.
They are scoundrels, yes, but they are just surviving this capitalism full of deceit and fiction in a different way than I am.

My family is not rich, including my father, so I am in favor of a wealth tax.

@3dcandy And in the case of Apple products, many suppliers own those parts.
