I second that.

If this sounds like retaliation, that’s probably a good reason to get your union involved.

Either there is more to the story you’re not telling us, or your manager and that coworker are absolute assholes. Maybe even both.

I mean making someone ineligible to be president for as long as he is under investigation for insurrection, treason or other crimes against the United States sounds pretty straightforward.

He could always wait and get back into it the next cycle if the investigation gets dropped or if he’s proven innocent.

It is by choice. Prominent developers made that choice because they thought it might eliminate a lot of the popularity incentives reddit creates.

Now I don’t agree with that choice, but many others here do. I don’t think this solves the incentive issues but just makes instances a bit more of a wild western and requires moderators to do more work figuring out what to make of an account.

Maybe it would be great if this is still an option you could turn on / off per instance or something.

Yes, this is exactly what I’ve found them to be the most useful for.

Here’s a list:

• ChatGPT

Lemmy will hate me for this, but it remains the best chat it there is, especially if you subscribe to the pro version. There’s different models but essentially it’s just a good bot that will be really helpful giving you feedback on thoughts and ideas.

A to A- tier

• Gemini

Google AI chat bot which seems to be well received recently. I will be an asshole an assume it’s not gonna be quite as good but it looks like they’re sticking out now.

A- to B+ tier

• Bing / Copilot

Microsoft’s AI attempt. It is an AI but it’s only OK. Might get enough out of it for your purpose but it already has a long list of hiccups recorded so this is not something I would hang my head on all the time. Because it’s got bing integration, generally the AI assisted search can be helpful though.

B tier

• Llama on huggingface

Basically an open source alternative to ChatGPT done well, although not quite as good. This Facebook’s work which they are graciously providing free of charge for everyone to enjoy and tinker with. Huggingface is great because you will always find live demos of all the models there so if you are not a power user, in a limited way you can use this model on the website.

Between B and C tier

• Llama self setup

Llama is open source so it is possible to set it up yourself. Using the webui it is possible to do this on your own PC, removing the limitations for conversation speed and message counts. You will be struggling if your graphics card can’t entertain the model though (good models eat vram for breakfast). If you have it setup, you will always get the best experience out of the Llama models which might make this worth it.

C tier

Other than those there are a lot of sites offering subscriptions to what is basically a different frontend for chatgpt or other open source models, which is arguably worse than all the options mentioned. There might be some gems in the rough but I haven’t looked too far into it. This should give you an introductory overview though which is presumably more helpful to you.

I personally use ChatGPT and I am starting to appreciate it a lot. It does still lead ahead of Llama or anything else.

After reading your comments, it looks like what you’re looking for is an AI that remembers your conversations. Generally an AI can only “remember” a specific amount of tokens (words iirc) and it will have amnesia about the rest.

I think the bigger Llama models will have high token cutoff as well as copilot (?) don’t quote me on that tho.

We’re not at the point where an AI will remember details for over a year from one conversation but if you always open a new conversation for a specific topic, you will already be able to get 90% of the way to where you want.

Good luck on your endeavors ;)

I think this really depends on how you quit. If you do it on an impulse, that’s gonna really roll the dice, but if you already have another job lined up and you know the financial hit can be dampened by savings or another way, you might feel a bit safer.

I just heard that my contract can’t be renewed and it runs out in March, so I’ll have too look for something. I have enough time and I already took care of everything else so I don’t have to panic anymore, but the anxiety will be there until I secured another job I’m happy with, and I just gotta deal with that.

My current job is not toxic but it does keep me on my toes and one of my bosses I can’t get along with; he is always suspicious of me and I can’t really deal with that. I just wanna do my job and not appeal to people lol.

AK-Xolotl

Cute rogue like with great humor. Kinda sinking a lot of hours into it rn…

I’ve played the game when it was free for a while and I’m wondering why this doesn’t happen more often. The game is a pile of huge gameplay concepts, wasted potential, repetitive mechanics and a ton of bugs. I like what it could be but we’ve lived in that illusion long enough, chances are this will stay in development and eventually just cease to exist.

There’s a very small chance it will get officially released but honestly nothing I even have to consider.

If only the developers started to to finish and polish parts of the game…

Good to know they keep going their own way. We got more than enough carbon copy games nowadays, always excited for something unique.

Don’t forget the other details about war crimes against Palestinians and Palestinians living in towns caged in, and getting assaulted day in and day out through the fence by Israelites. And the constant harassment online. And Israelites taking over their homes forcefully. And them having no place to live.

I guess sometimes you can get lost in the details. My bad.

Right. The normal thing to do is either to concede your VP race, or concede your hard-line position.

But he is just saying “I learned I need to convince people harder that I’m right.” Which is bat shit crazy.

Been coding up a little dashboard in the last week, and it’s been making me around 30% more efficient.

And you are right, it’s mostly taking away the boring parts, which is awesome.

Yeah the perfect amount of stupid where you actually wanna try to get good at the game. It’s awesome.

On windows, there’s an ascii/unicode char lookup table system tool, which you can use to search and copy special characters. Just FYI.

This is a rhetorical question. This does not belong in here I believe.

Yeah that’s a lot of information framing.

Been using copilot and another smaller AI model for hobby projects. Both of them slowed me down as much as they helped me with my code.

Now I’ve switched to supermaven free tier, and it’s actually net positive for me.

It’s not like it’s writing whole functions for me, but it’s actually quite context sensitive when it comes to defining functions and using them with the same parameters and things like that. I won’t say I am 50% faster, but I could easily attribute a 30% development boost to it. Now mind you, for bug fixes and bug prevention that’s back down to a 5% boost in speed, but that’s still a net positive, so I’ll take that.

I mean I appreciate the joke but this is a question community, so I understand why people who don’t get the reference are gonna answer that. No need to get groggy.

They do but the amount of information is way smaller for the others. With your search engine of choice you’ll find the posts though if there are any.

Right after Ubisoft added an offline mode for the crew 2 iirc
