yknow over recent months i've felt like genai was getting too indistinguishable and its prevalence is louder than our ability to complain about it. i was getting ready to accept it as a suck

Some facts on #worldwaterday

●Women and girls in #Gaza spend an average of 6-8 hours a day on a gruelling and humiliating journey to fetch a few litres of water.

●land The average Gazan receives 3-15 liters of water per day (mostly brackish water), while the per capita share of potable water does not exceed 2 liters, which is less than 15% of the minimum standard according to World #Health Organization standards.

Help Mai Support Her Family, The Gazan Children, & More

I am raising funds on behalf of my friend Mai Ayman Zourob, who launched an initiative to support the children in her displacement camp in Gaza.

We have a sad tale today from Manchester Piccadilly station.

This is Chocolat. Or at least that's the name printed on their foot.
They're a lovely, cuddly black kitty who was sadly separated from their owner on Platforms 3 & 4 about 19.14.

We heard a tinkle of broken glass and helped their owner tidy up however she had left before I could pass this lovely kitty back to her owner.
Unable to find her on the nearby train we are a bit lost.

Please share this far and wide, across any social media and maybe we can help reunite this poor kitty with their rightful owner.
We will ensure Lost Property here look after her in the meantime.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦📚✏️✏️I'm late paying my children's kindergarten fees because they need to buy new clothes for Eid. Every day we struggle to provide for their basic needs. We rely on your donations and kindness, as we lack the means to make ends meet and have no income. I need $80 for the fees. Please help us ensure their education and their right to learn and play. Any support, no matter how small, makes a big difference.✏️✏️

hi! i really need help, could you spare some?

i'm an unemployed and disabled student who has struggled A LOT for the past three years. i currently live in a neglectful household that often lets me go without or shames me for basic needs.

i’m currently looking for a job but didn’t get anything yet, so i really need help to buy food, medicine, toiletries and for some medical expenses.

if you're able to help me with a donation or simply a boost to this post, i am eternally grateful, it really means the world to me and makes all the difference in my life. thank you very, very much for reading and have a lovely day.

The deskilling effect of LLM use is real. Figuring out how to do things for yourself is the cornerstone of the entire learning process, and if you bypass it, everything else you 'learn' about how to do something with LLM help has no solid foundation in understanding that is necessary to change, adapt, and apply that knowledge in the future. It may seem harmless to 'skip ahead' with LLMs here and there bc 'you don't need to learn that', but it builds a habit of not understanding anything.
