  • Lemmy is licensed under the AGPL which was created at the Free Software Foundation which was started by Richard Stallman who made controversial comments about Jeffrey Epstein in 2019. Don't breath or you might inhale an atom once exhaled by Adolf Hitler.

  • Citation needed. When you hover over a video's progress bar, there is displayed a little graph showing something resembling a probability density function for timestamps users most frequently skip to. Advertisers can use this information to determine how likely a user is to sit through a sponsorship for a given channel.

    Not that that matters. Don't feel like you need to watch ads. Advertising is bad in all its forms.

  • [Contains AI] Making RAM at Home | Dr. Semiconductor

  • Yeah, maybe it isn't all AI.

    I still think the voice is AI. I don't know why people do this. We're already facing so much slop. Why make it worse and disrespect your audience? Use your very own human voice. This threw me off and made me mistrust the entire video.

  • [Contains AI] Making RAM at Home | Dr. Semiconductor

    Jump

  • There's too much AI being used in the video. Something is off about the voice as well.

    Edit: IMO, a pretty clear sign the channel is AI is the name. Purportedly a native English speaker capable of making computer chips in a shed, but made a careless mistake naming the channel "Dr.Semiconductor", omitting a space after "Dr.". The first video uploaded a month ago has the same tells that the voice is AI-generated as this 2-hour-long video on C++. Those are also both videos with a similar number of views uploaded by a channel with no previous history with clear AI-generated imagery. The entire channel is AI and it appears lots of people are being easily fooled. The voice is AI. The videos and imagery are AI. The script is likely AI. The video idea might be AI. Even the comments might be AI. The only thing that isn't clearly AI is the channel name. The 400k views on the first video could be fraudulently automated. It looks like this stuff has gotten good enough to fool people as recently as 5 months ago, possibly earlier. Welcome to the dead internet.

  • If I understand correctly, Android already has something like this: the Play Integrity API. It's responsible for rooted Android devices being unable to use banking apps. iOS might have something similar. And the term for this if you want to learn more is remote attestation. It's far more insidious than devices with locked boot loaders.

  • 2008 "days-in-a-week" debate on Bodybuilding.com forums

    Jump

  • Web forum software bumps up a thread to the top of the board when a user posts a reply to the thread. This enables lengthy long-lived debates to take place. It gives a lot more opportunity for good ideas to be presented on a topic compared to reddit or lemmy which cycles posts off the front page hours or days after being posted. But trolls can easily derail the entire purpose of the forum by insisting on always having the last word in an off-topic, manufactured debate that eventually draws the entire userbase in.

  • I came across the paper planes entry from the "See also" section in the atmospheric entry article.

    Fun facts I learned: roughly the probability at least one person currently alive have been or will be struck by falling space debris from reentering satellites is 1% and 3% of the matter which enters the atmosphere is from satellites compared to meteors.

  • public domain code can’t really be released under the GPL

    Disney created films based on old fairy tales. Disney has a copyright on those films even though they include elements from the public domain because the films also include the artists' original expression. The linux kernel (probably) contains public domain AI-generated code alongside original work from its many contributors. If you wanted to get the entire project into the public domain, you'd have to get permission from nearly all its contributors or wait for their copyright term to expire. The small snippets of code which were AI-generated are public domain. The bulk of the project isn't, and the project as a whole isn't.

    As much as I dislike AI, I can't say I understand forbidding AI-generated contributions on the grounds that the submitted code is public domain. I suppose somebody can come along and "steal" the public domain snippets, but I suspect it's difficult to definitively tell apart the human-written code from AI-generated and strip out the human-written bits. If they do, what's the issue? It wasn't yours to begin with and you can still keep it in your project. Moreover, now that the magical plagiarism machines exist, who's going to be lifting code in this way, anyway?

  • And different from them all, the compressed double dash. That’s what’s in OP’s screenshot, and they’re what you get on Lemmy and Reddit when you type two dashes together with no spaces between, and it passes for the em dash in human writing.

    The dashes in the reddit post being discussed are em dashes, not en dashes. In any case, I'm skeptical of the claim that double dashes written in the reddit text input box transform into something else. Though, I no longer have a reddit account which I could use to check. It looks like there is a way to write em dashes on reddit, but it isn't with 2 sequential hyphens.
