So don’t put AI in front of anything mission critical or without going through a review of a human.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why hasn't Euro become the default global reserve currency yet?English
8·1 day agoOnly one oil country switched to Euros and an invasion switched it back to dollars.
A lot of the international banking structure was built on American systems of banking, so the dollar got baked into a lot.
Until Trump, the dollar was generally seen as more stable given its longevity and being the currency of the largest superpower.
Also, compared to the Euro and Yuan, the American dollar has an internal hedge when it comes to energy prices given that the USA can supply most of its energy needs by itself. It is hard to handle an oil shock when the currency’s value drops because the internal market can’t afford oil.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If you give the fae a false name which others would identify you as, can they still use that false name to control you?English
11·2 days agoIt is a homebrew story, so I don’t expect a clean mechanical answer.

2·2 days agoI would say my question is more lore than belief related; my question is tied to an RPG campaign that I’m playing.
I find I get better responses if I don’t have a gigantic wall of text explaining the question.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•California father arrested after repainting crosswalk, adding stop signs near children’s parkEnglish
3·2 days agoThere is usually some guidance, although the regulations are usually written with more wiggle room than structural standards because of varying site conditions.
However, the hill causing an increase to the speed of the car and that the area has a known pedestrian draw to it would tip the scales more towards installing a stop sign.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why don;t more presidents put stuff to a national referendum like Clinton did a couple times? A person would get time off work to vote, show what americans actually want and so on.English
3·2 days agoThe closest to “time off to vote” is vote by mail. It is really popular, but the current political party in charge federally really doesn’t want everyone to vote and is taking significant action to try to supress the vote.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do you fight abandonment issues when people keep abandoning youEnglish
3·4 days agoBreaking up with someone doesn’t require a well thought out argument, it can just be a deep feeling that the relationship can’t continue. You also will never get the full mindset of what the other person was thinking when they broke up with you.
And in the end, a breakup doesn’t mean you’re a bad person, but that the two of you may not be a good match. And that is fine.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How come most celebs/influencers go broke with in a short amount of time earning a couple million? Why not invest in local stores or offer money for a percentage of said store why not perpetualy moneyEnglish
9·5 days agoFor a lot of people, money isn’t a number but an on/off switch. Self control in choosing to not buy something isn’t developed, so people who come into money start spending extravagantly since they don’t have the economic limitations keeping their spending in check.
There is also social pressure to spend, since that person is likely surrounded by others with the same mindset.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How can I wear a skirt at work if I'm not religious?English
2·6 days agoIt depends on what job it is. I don’t see a bank having a problem with it unless they have a uniform. If you were doing any field or machine work, I could see a safety issue.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•College core: you sit in the class for attendance then go home and teach yourselfEnglish
4·6 days agoA good chunk of early undergraduate education was designed as a filter for students. Can students, in a system that doesn’t care if they fail, make it through the system? A lot of the rest of it was leadership training with some technical classes bolted on.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why are portion sizes in the US big?English
1·6 days agoNo, but it is more a sign of what a restaurant or store will focus on. If the raw ingredients are of lower costs than rent and labor, it may make more sense to provide more food.
For restaurant culture in the USA, there is generally a focus on large portions, free tap water, few courses, and turning tables over quickly. A lot of early fast food chains were effectively food factories, skimping out in rent and reducing labor costs because those are the major costs.


A lot of people cheer for their family’s team even if the town they live in has a different team. So you might not cheer for your team, but you’ll cheer for the team you saw Mom and Dad cheer for when you were a kid.
