If you miss key information the summary is useless.

If the structure of the code is bad then using that boilerplate will harm your ability to maintain the code FOREVER.

There are use cases for it, but it has to be used by someone who understands the task and knows the outcome they're looking for. It can't replace any measure of skill just yet, but it behaves as if it can which is hazardous.

47% is a fail. 81% is an A-... Sure the AI can fail faster than a human can succeed, but I can fail to run a marathon faster than an athlete can succeed.

I guess by the standards we use to judge AI I'm a marathon runner!

Not even that complex anymore, just download brave and "open private window with tor". Then go to the website and download the data.

Downloading a "tor browser" always sound more "hacker" than it is these days.

You keep saying "men have been harmed by feminism" and I couldn't agree with you less.

[–] Hacksaw@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Dude I didn't prove shit. I don't understand how saying "men and boys need help" is a critique of feminism.

I know a lot of people are suggesting to address these things through "feminism" and that these problems belong to the "patriarchy". But fundamentally what they mean is use a leftist approach to deal with obstacles affecting you caused by the existing hierarchy.

They're saying that because what no one wants is another alpha male Jordan Peterson/Enon Musk style bullshit peddler claiming that men have been harmed by feminism and will be better off if we just restore the patriarchy and become "alpha" or whatever lingo they're using these days. That might be superficially true, but oppressing others isn't the way to get ahead.

It's starting to become obvious which side you're learning on, but hopefully you'll come over and help fight for men and boys issues in a way that improves society instead of harming it.

.... I'm not feminism man so I'm not sure what your trying to say.

Anyways "Welcome to the left" i guess, everyone has to identify the systemic barriers holding them back and fight to have them removed. You don't fight alone, we all help and support eachother. But no one can identify your barriers for you, they don't live your life.

You're coming in here saying "a side effect of the fighting done by feminism is reveal the obstacles holding boys back" then thank feminism I guess and join the fight for boys and men against the patriarchy/hierarchy.

If you're going to sit here pretending that these problems were CREATED by feminism and you want to attack the idea of "women fighting to remove their obstacles", well I don't know what to tell you, but you're going to be alone and you're not going to get far. We don't win by diminishing eachother.

For example, you talk about how feminists fought hard to get women into schools and make the education fair for women. Now that women outnumber men in higher learning you're saying feminists stopped, but then you're complaining that feminists aren't fighting for men? Why would they? And even if they wanted to, how can WOMEN understand the obstacles holding back MEN? Feminism isn't well suited for these challenges, but feminism certainly didn't set out to hold men and boys back in education. The fact that the education system doesn't meet the needs of young boys has nothing to do with feminism.

Now you want to fight for more physical activity, more hands on learning in schools because that's what boys NEED? All the power to you. There are a lot of people fighting for that and you should join. Left wing activists of all stripes support this because we all support eachother and better, more equitable education helps us all. Demand higher school budgets and get physical and hands on learning back in schools.

You wanna sit here and whine like a baby blaming feminists for cutting school budgets and removing PE, science labs shop classes and hands on tech courses based on no facts at all? Enjoy the downvotes and loneliness I guess!

You're close to getting it but you're not quite there. The patriarchy oppressed men AND women. It oppressed white people AND minorities.

Feminists, LGBTQ+, and black rights activists have each fought against the hierarchal structure for an end to their oppression and to enshrine their own rights. These people fight for equality, but they obviously do it when they're the ones harmed by inequality. They also support eachother in their respective fights as allies.

None of these groups will fight on behalf of other groups for many reasons, not the least of which is that they DON'T KNOW what it's like to be in a group they don't belong to. The most they can do is support eachother's fights.

Unfortunately many of the advantages that the patriarchy offered men was through oppressing others. For example if you were a "manly" man you could attract a "feminine" woman to do chores and raise kids for you. Nowadays women have better deals available. So men are at a unique crossroads, they can work on their own fights: the freedom to express human emotions, the freedom to participate in "feminine" pursuits like being in the lives of your kids, taking paternity leave, fighting for an education system that doesn't leave boys in the dust, among other things. OR they can try to go back to the hierarchal ways of life, adopting the "manly alpha" persona and hoping to find a "feminine" wife to take care of the house and kids. The latter FEELS easier, but success is difficult.

Nobody else got that choice because no one else thought that taking apart the hierarchy was as painful for them as much as it is to men. It lays bare all of our limitations and removes all the privileges. But if we understand that the hierarchy is what CREATED those limitations and gave the privileges at the cost of operating others, then we know the right thing is to start fighting our fights and stop being left behind.

It's not feminism's fault we're left behind. Why would women fight men's fights against the hierarchy/patriarchy FOR us, when women don't even live the problems we live. We're left behind because we stayed behind. Because it felt good. Now it doesn't. Now we fight for our freedom from the hierarchy.

LMAO this is your calling Trump the lesser of two evils.

https://lemmy.ml/comment/5867939

You also spend 75% of your comments arguing that Democrats are too soft on Israel.

What a joke

[–] Hacksaw@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Holy fuck. I didn't say criticism of the democratic party is automatically a right wing tactic. Get some goddamned reading comprehension. I swear you're just trolling me at this point.

In case you're not, I'll give it one more shot. I said there is a specific right wing effort to get left wing people to not vote by calling out issues where the Democrats aren't left enough (but where the Republicans are much worse) in order to convince people not to vote. If your posts look like that, for example if you post a typical "genocide Joe" post, you need to be downvoted, because there is no way allowing another Trump victory is the right answer to "the Democrats aren't left enough". This in no way stops anyone from posting nuanced criticism or even just "I wish the Democratic leadership had more courage to fight Israel we should support Bernie Sanders' campaign to withhold funding and petition our representatives to support the motion". Anything with ANY nuance, or genuine desire for improvement of the democratic party will be VERY different from this tactic. If you don't want to be downvoted all you have to do is include the slightest bit of additional thought, information, input, nuance or advice. If you don't, not only does your post look exactly like a right wing voter suppression post, and should be downvoted on that basis alone, but also clearly has no real new thoughts to offer and would be downvoted on that basis anyways.

Our communities are setup like that. We're separated from eachother, and we can't afford to spend enough time at local third places to feel community. Church also used to be central to community and most people aren't religious, but nothing has replaced the churches role in community building.

It's rough. If you can get out to places nearby where people congregate that will be nice. Getting a dog is nice too if you like dogs, they give you love and accept your love and they're a good ice breaker. They also force you out regularly. You can take the dog to dog parks and chat with locals.

It's not your fault. Humans are a social animal and we built cities and an economy that didn't consider that.

How can it be any other way? The fewer little vote the more likely Trump is to win. In the American system not voting IS a vote for Trump.

I'm sorry change is too slow for you. The first round of liberal/leftist victory is often crap. They barely win, or they don't have his leftist candidates. Every election with a massive turnout on the left opens up space for leftist representatives. I think I've said this before. Change is slow. Right now the window is WAY over to the right. We have to bring it back by voting in droves until we're represented. It's simple math, but we keep losing because we don't get what we want right away.

If a new socialist party can work in the UK then more pretty to you. I know some European countries have 20 parties with elected representatives and the most any party can hope for is 20%. But in countries with two parties you have to change them from the inside. Each situation is s different battleground and we have to optimise our strategy. And we don't win by attacking eachother for starting simple facts because they're not true everywhere.

If only we had people who could investigate and warn us of risks to public safety before they happen..... They surely would have spotted this right wing threat coming.... Oh wait....
