You aren’t faster at checking it out per item. The supermarkets are just keeping it understaffed all the time so the human checkout has a long wait while self checkout does not, so it’s faster to not wait. I try to not use self checkout, but if I have a few items it just makes me feel guilty about making other people wait behind me.

As they keep having understaffed situations, sometimes there’s no other option except self checkout. Which honestly should be illegal.

Most problems with straight dating apps is too many guys and too little girls. So if someone is dedicated enough to make something like, they don’t have the reach to get to girls to sign up. Unless they are marketing minded, then they just wanna make money with their “idea”

There’s a whole band of people who only listen to rich people. Because “they’re rich because they’re genius” mentality

This is what I was thinking. I’m not worried about the AI that they’re running. I’m worried about the mindset that might be doing it under some belief they have, or tendencies to think of certain things

It wasn’t to push people to use chatbot, but it does helo understand why so many people use chatbots. I had to use Google search in a computer (extra: without adblocks) after years, then it made me think it finally makes sense why people ask chatbots everything instead of just searching.

I had a whole email thread where everyone was like “this is what AI gave me” to each other.

I’ve seen similar talks about people doing it here as well, but not for hours. I think you have to manage it yourself for certain hours a week for it to qualify. I am not sure.

But the part I don’t understand is, the taxes they have to pay when they sell their house that they did not reside in, should have a lot more tax than the tax they have to pay on salaried income. Is that not the case? I’m not into business side so I’m not knowledgeable about these, but it makes sense to tax more on business profits compared to someone’s salary.

And if you have tax brackets, paying little taxes now might be better than paying no tax and later having to pay huge tax on the same amount because it’s not distributed across tax years when you sell

Wait 2 years ago? The mortgage being high should mean the houses bought recently are no longer profitable to rent otherwise you should be able to pay mortgage that is less than rent yourself.

I’m in USA and only Houses that are available for rent here are houses people bought pre-covid or earlier, when the mortgage was way less or it’s paid off, so it’s profitable for them to rent it out with current rent

My guess for proxima was “approach” in “come in” Sense. But yeah, it was nice getting the joke even without the language

That’d be same as we are losing potatoes species so we should plant more potatoes. The issue is the wild/native variety is lot more various and different than the industrial potatoes we plant.

Or a more extreme case: we’re losing wolves so let’s breed more dogs.

Bees used for honey making is just a small fragment of bee species humans use. While the native bees are various,and have different patterns of living and polination

Supply and demand is correct in isolation. But so is advertising, they have spent decades learning human psychology to make people want certain things, hence creating demand for things that they want to sell. And they have also learned to create scarcity to Jack up prices.

The usb part that actually stores the data is actually similarly small in size,the port however needs to be that size

Looks that the code results in that page is broken. I’ll fix it tomorrow. It happens because I have to recompile plugin when I change data structure of the language. And the web version can’t run because they’re loaded as dll/so.

But what I’m doing here is running a validation where the code is something like node.x >= sum(inputs.x), where x is a variable that should always increase while moving down. Or if you think of river elevation for example it has to always decrease while moving downstream. When you have physical laws like that, and you have measurements at locations then you can simply check against that.

Of course you can do that in other systems as well, but Nadi makes it a one liner and intuitive. Some modeling systems don’t check and get undefined behavior because of that (just had to debug something like that at work), so Nadi provides a nice way to validate and preprocess data before other systems can use it.

If you only know private key and not public key then isn’t it the same as only knowing public key? I thought those were interchangeable

Wait is this AI asking me to steal the codebase? /j

I’m basically making a domain specific language for network analysis (graphs). I’ve realized that a lot of things are/can be represented as graphs, and we have support for them in many languages,but why not have it’s own language that comes with graph as the context.

It has been 2 years, I started with tree graph, so I’m still a bit far from being able to support any kind of graphs, but it’s close to supporting any directed graph for now. And recently I was able to make a version that works in a browser so people can run it without installing anything as well. Here is a basic playground.

https://nadi-system.github.io/latest/playground.html

Try running this code in the playground, you might have to search around the documentation if you want to know the syntax a bit more. This example loads a network and you can access inputs of all the nodes in a map.

# load network
net.load_str("
a -> {b, c, d}
{c,d} -> e
e -> {f,g}
")

nodesmap inputs.NAME

I’m working on a text editor with visualization of network and completion support. I can update you in a week or two if you’re still interested to try it. I used to post when I made stuffs in Reddit, but since I migrated to lemmy I don’t feel like there’s much platform or interactions while posting it here

This, and people promoting it so much. I feel like my projects will lose value because anyone can just put projects in GitHub and people aren’t going to check everything to make sure you’re good.

Job market is already so noisy, it’s super hard for anyone to even look at your CV unless you have connections. And the projects I’ve put years of effort are becoming less and less relevant.

And what even is the point of making my tool open source and putting years of effort into it when someone can just feed it to their AI, generate something that’s similar but with fancy website and promoting it using their platform

And the “lunch in your own time” means I’ll be at work for 9 hours anyway

Which one is Grandpa?

Edit: mistake I read grandparents as grandpa

We’re not fighting them because they’re rich, we’re fighting the boomer class because they keep giving the billionaires power because they think we’re lazy and billionaires worked hard for their money

That’s the problem with stupid people. When there’s a crisis and people solve it they just go “see there wasn’t a serious crisis”, and next time they go “nothing happened last time, it’s exaggerated”
