If someone is unironically basing a sense of gender superiority on having pockets I feel bad for them.

nandeEbisu@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Hollow Knight: Silksong is out now on Steam - and it broke Steam servers for 30 minutes and counting nowEnglish1·1 month agoSounds like you’d rather watch a movie or show. Not a knock. I tend to not engage with plot in games unless it’s like BG3 where it’s fundamental. I like that for TV and movies, I just have the director giving me the optimal way to engage with their story and themes.
I am a sucker for a good magic or power system, so will happily explore through skill trees and the like.
Its tongue in cheeck. Of all the inequalities between women and men this is super low on the list. Have you heard how actual misogynists speak?
Cope and seethe women!
Developing technologies means mitigating negative externalities. You don’t just design a pressure cooker and ignore the possibility it might explode because you “can’t force people to not leave it unattended”, you spend the extra time and money to design and install a safety valve.

I live in New York City, there are a lot of bloated non profits that are just used as slush funds for rich people and networking. I’ve met a few people on occasion who work in non profits that do things like provide hiring metrics for other non profits instead of actually doing direct good, so you really need to be careful who you donate to.
I’m sorry that Germany also has long term issues with its social safety net, but it’s morbidly reassuring as an American to hear we’re not going to be the only ones on the sinking ship.

Why should I go through the trouble of researching all these charities trying to find a good one to donate to.
Not that Germany doesn’t have non profits, but they really should be for special interest type cases where you explicitly want to send money to a cause, not general global well being.

nandeEbisu@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How abnormal is it for a mother to buy her son a fleshlight for his 18th birthday?13·2 months agoIt’s not out of the realm of possibility that it’s normal for your family, but for most families that wouldn’t be normal.
If you’re family is open about being sex positive, if talking with your parents about masturbating wasn’t weird as a teenager, then I don’t think it’s that weird of a college send off gift.
nandeEbisu@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If you had 1 dollar and 24 hours what would you do?6·2 months agoSpend the dollar on garbage bags and collect a bunch of bottles and cans. Depending on where you live, you could probably make a good amount of money from that. I’ve seen people with shopping carts full of bottles walking to the recycling kiosks.
nandeEbisu@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Should I be worried about "Prompt injection" attacks on my gmail?1·4 months agoSure, it’s important to be aware of future potential issues, but there’s a huge difference between I get the wrong answer when I ask a chatbot about my email vs remote code execution.
Also, one is a general security vulnerability with email as a whole, like phishing you can get scammed regardless of your email client, vs improperly implemented features in a specific library. I don’t think this is a reason to leave Gmail.
nandeEbisu@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Should I be worried about "Prompt injection" attacks on my gmail?2·4 months agoAs far as prompt injection is concerned, I don’t think it’s a risk unless you’re using some kind of agent to go though emails, which is not a Gmail specific thing.
If we’re taking about Google scraping your data the risk is more one of them having an incorrect profile on you, but running a conversational agent is quite expensive, I don’t they would have that as a large scale part of their pipeline. Embedding and clarification models likely aren’t instruction tuned so prompt injection won’t do anything.
nandeEbisu@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Should I be worried about "Prompt injection" attacks on my gmail?6·4 months agoOnly if you are piping those emails into something like an LLM assistant or search tool, especially if you’re not checking the results. And in that case, it doesn’t matter what email provider you use.
I can see it maybe messing with search results when you look through your email, but again that’s independent of email provider.
nandeEbisu@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why don't these code-writing AIs just output straight up machine code?13·5 months ago-
Machine code is less portable, as new CPU optimizations and instructions are released, its easier to update a compiler to integrate those in its optimizations than regenerate and retest all of your code. Also, if you need to target different OSs, like windows vs MacOs vs Linux its easier to make portable code in something higher level like python or java.

Static analysis to check for things like memory leaks or security vulnerabilities like sql injections are likely easier to do on human readable code rather than assembly.

Its easier for a human to go in an tweak code that is written in human readable language rather than assembly.

You know women can be shitty partners too right? Not just men?
If I don’t trust my parents to vet potential partners, no way am I trusting the state for such a life impacting decision.
Make sure you use organic short half life poisons. Don’t poison the surrounding areas with rainwater runoff just because you want to live in a nightmarish hellscape.
Desolate responsibly.
Avacado prices REALLY depend on where you live and what season. If you’re in most of California, its a lot easier to get cheap avacados that are also high quality.
That’s called politicking, which they absolutely should be doing.
You’re indirectly getting laws through by twisting arms and making deals instead of just having a majority.
Plenty have been directly pressuring Republican congresspeople by rallying in their district like Sanders did this last week.
Direct legislative action is difficult without control, but in terms of effective messaging and pressuring Republicans by threatening the midterms is probably one of the more effective strategies they have.
Ask people in western China how that’s working for them. And that’s only the width of one country, not a continent or hemisphere.
