Now we’re judging articles for quantity instead of quality?

Who uses “lame” in 2024? It was so pervasive during the Digg times.

I’ve seen some inclusive tech docs in which they (ha!) use “she” instead of “he” or “they.” I thought that was cool.

Are people writing “she” instead of “they” misogynistic and transphobic too?

I hate that word so much. The_Donald scarred me.

Thank you for your service, ociffer.

I’m curious enough to continue the conversation, if only because talking about definitions is interesting. So I’m not being confrontational, I actually want to have a discussion.

You say that all soaps are antibacterial because the result in the end is that no bacteria remains on the hands. I see what you’re saying there. But anti-bacterial soap kills the bacteria, including the remaining ones that couldn’t be removed.

That’s like saying that removing a group of humans based on ethnicity from a region, without killing them, amounts to genocide. Would you say that’s genocide too?* (And I know the comparison is extreme.)

*I think I read somewhere that forcibly removing people from a region amounts to genocide, though. But you know what I mean…

I think OPs point is that this “Frank” guy is still in your country’s name.

That’s like saying there was a King Godzilla once, you get rid of him, and then call your country “Republic of Godzilla.”

I’m not saying you don’t have a point. I just understand the parent poster’s point too.

The irony is that I’ve been antagonized for looking for other examples of AI that are not related to LLMs. As in “lol LLMs are AI!!!” and I have to reply with “yeah, I know that, but what other types are being used out there?” “just shut up with your anti-LLM stuff!”

Mindless negativity has arrived - at least in lemmy.world.

I have some tech-related subscriptions, so I check those out every now and then, but they have few new posts. So when I browse the Popular section, oy… corporations bad, climate change bad, war bad, economy bad. (Not saying it’s not true, I just want a place I can browse and escape all that for five minutes.)

Thank you for this. I watched the whole thing. It’s undeniable that Raygun can do a lot of things I can’t, but her performance paled in comparison with the other competitors. Three four times I got the goosebumps when the other competitors did truly amazing moves!
