@cancel I think this is why these tools are designed to give you an answer, no matter what.

They'll tell you something is possible when it isn't. They'll give you *some* solution to your problem, no matter how half-baked or incomplete.

What they won't do is say 'I do not know', or 'no, this is not possible', or 'I can't do that without more information'.

They're designed to trigger an addictive response, because their makers want people to depend on them.

@fesshole How much does the curry cost?

@GossiTheDog here is the CEO of Zapier saying that all new hires must be "AI fluent" - and what that means.

Mainly, it seems to mean to uncritically adopt AI for all kinds of workflows.

@ajsadauskas @jeffjarvis.bsky.social A lot.

As someone who was born in East Germany and witnessed the changes of 1989/90 up close, this article touches on all the salient points:

@evan the poll question should be: which of these browsers do you distrust the least.

Because that's what using browsers comes down to these days.

@gamingonlinux At this point in time I will say to Debian 'Good on you', but also ask 'Took you until now to figure this out?'.

@mikey @grumpasaurus @mekkaokereke Bluey is fantastic. First time I heard about it I thought it was just another silly kids show. It took all of watching one or two episodes in earnest to completely change my mind.

@mekkaokereke And lately, the problem with controlled burns is that the window to do them safely in is getting tighter every year (I wonder why (no I don't)). Even if you had the manpower and resources to do all the preventative burn-offs you needed to do, you probably still couldn't do it due to unfavourable weather conditions.

My wife is involved with these kind of burns in a small area here in Queensland, AU. Even they haven't been able to do as much as they reasonably needed this past year.

@mekkaokereke how much of a role do for-profit prisons play in this?

@FediFollows Holy crap, that's me! @making_tracks is my Peertube account! Thank you for the shoutout!
