thank you for the good laugh

that’s what a perv would say

Hi, my job is to make Powerpoint’s and Excel documents. My role is to define the why, what and how to the engineers who build useful stuff in my team. The skill is not in making catchy presentations, it’s in thinking, researching, finding agreements and deciding. And I’m expected to do that by my team. The worst people in my job line are now relying on AI for everything. Sure they create documents faster than me, but they delegate the thinking, the research, the decision making, to an AI bot that can only mimic a thinking process. It’s a gamble: it’ll be good sometimes, it’ll be incomplete and inaccurate most of the time. I don’t know how to use AI. I use it for basic stuff but even repetitive tasks are full of mistakes and it takes me more time to verify everything afterwards.

so Europe just needs to ban that single domain? That’s easy :)

the future is when you can’t buy RAM because your dead cousin is using it to spam your feed with their antivaxx ideas.

I doubt that there are significant development teams at the DINUM. They coordinate projects but do not build anything. On LinkedIn, here are the main skills associated with the company:

Every 2-3 years, the French government announces that they released a brand new homemade app that will replace some bigtech because sovereignty or whatever bureaucratic bullshit communication they fancy at the moment. Then they issue a BIG contract to an IT consulting company to develop the thing, who get tons of money to send junior devs to release a buggy tool that no one will ever use because migrations cost a lot. This new app will die like the others.

Thanks for hurting Bernard Arnault. We French, we appreciate the move.

it’s not about playing, it’s about paying. The sooner you finish the game, the sooner you buy another one.

Resolution is passed. US can’t invade Greenland. US invade Denmark. Checkmate (and world war, probably)

The Louvre employees raised warnings for years about the lack of funds leading to poor security for the employees, the visitors and the collections. https://globalnation.inquirer.net/295647/louvre-heist-lays-bare-museum-security-complaints

Anybody going there to test “how bad it is” is giving them traffic, which they can use to brag about its success. Personally, I’d rather completely ignore it and disregard whoever mention it one day as a source, which will never happen hopefuly.

Watch the video? Duh. Thanks I watched it, and I know they don’t talk about how AI steals their art style (even though it’s really happening). I just pointed out the irony. The video also says they are usually enthusiastic about new tech but not this time.

I know this channel well enough to have seen countless videos praising fake tech like carbon capture and that’s why I have a problem with them. Am I allowed to have an opinion?

Kurzgesagt is annoyingly techno-solutionist but now that they are a big target of AI slop (their artistic style being heavily copied), they complain. That’s good I guess.

Call me a hardcore Spotify fan boy: I paid for Spotify for 15 years, I loved it, I even applied to worked for them. The product was great and unmatched so as I didn’t care about the problems, so many problems. things were getting progressively more problematic but in the end, King Gizzard convinced me to quit. I don’t regret it a single minute. Fuck Spotify.

TIL I’m a lot of thing vegan… also, not a vegan.

I’m not a patriot. I dont give a shit about my own country. If France is does positive things, good, but it doesn’t I’m going to ignore that our politicians are corrupt or that the Olympics were used to enforce mass surveillance and lock up climate activists.

Of course it’s bad. It’s awful. Only a complete moron would think the opposite.

This technological breakthrough is amazing, yes, but does not make disappear the constant harassment of minorities, the lack of freedom, the labor camps, the violent repression in Hong-Kong and all the other freaking shit China does on a daily basis.

And thanks for asking about the freedom of expression in Europe, it’s going really fine.
