you know, in spite of how much I like rust the language, I’m really starting to feel like it’s yet another software community whose loudest voices really don’t want me using their software https://chaosfem.tw/@Athena/116578993491995353

I’m happy to announce Graphs 2.0 is finally out, after two years without any major feature-updates we have finally released our biggest release yet.

With real equations that span an infinite range and can be manipulated analytically, error bars, a new style editor and much more. We even rewrote a large part of the codebase, which is now majority Vala, and should be more performant overall.

@cadusilva Num sei, pode ser algo tipo o que li aqui:

Há muita vontade de achar um problema para a "solução" que é modelos de linguagem natural.

Ou pode ser que faça sentido, sei lá. Eu acho que os piores problemas com os modelos são, mais ou menos em ordem:

- uso de trabalho das pessoas sem atribuição, e muitas vezes roubando comida da mesa;
- grandes firmas ganhando acesso aos "meios de produção" e tirando acesso de todo mundo;
- a baixa qualidade do texto produzido, por ser medíocre ou por alucinações;
- a perda gradual de pensamento crítico;
- a construção mal planejada e rápida de "data-centers".

Talvez seja possível evitar a maior parte desses problemas. Mas algo me diz que a pessoa que acha que a melhor maneira de fortalecer o movimento é educação via "chatbot" não é a pessoa que tá pensando em resolver os problemas.
