I'm guessing this judge considers the telephone to be an example of negligent design as well. After all, the phone company doesn't record every phone call I make and disconnect me if I mention an illegal drug.

I like to do things just off the top of the hour, since top of the hour is when many maintenance crons run. If you're running a modern cron daemon, you can rewrite that as:

3 1-23/6 * * * docker container restart lemmy-lemmy-1

Doesn't systemd have the ability to do this as well with unix sockets?

My city recently did 15mph for neighborhood residential roads and 20mph for the wider through roads connecting to them. I feel much safer now when walking and biking in the neighborhood. The roads here were never intended for cars to be parked up and down both sides.

I hate to argue against you because I agree that nobody needs a hundred round clip or full auto for an intruder, but the forefathers' intended right wasn't "people should have muskets". It was much closer to "the people should be armed in case of tyrrany by their government". The intention was for people to defend their other rights by force, making it more difficult for the government (or an invading force) to take over (this was immediately post-revolution mind you and much of the bill of rights was in direct response to british soldiers' activities). Of course they also thought we'd be reforming the government and drafting new constitutions as the culture changed, but of course that never happened.

I am not a historian, just a pedant.

The "prankster" was kicked out by security the day before and was actively avoiding areas with security on the day of the event. It's unreasonable to expect someone being attacked not to defend themselves. It's victim blaming to even imply the shooter did anything wrong here.

Loved it too. It's been a year or so but I feel like this was a two day read for me. I couldn't put it down.

I think you're putting too much faith in humans here. As best we can tell the only difference between how we compute and what these models do is scale and complexity. Your brain often lies to you and makes up reasoning behind your actions after the fact. We're just complex networks doing math.

Nope, you're looking at it wrong. The Dev got paid to write that code and for all of their 20 years experience. The code was freely given away after that. Nobody loses when knowledge is shared, humanity wins. It gets hairy when you have businesses whose model relies on giving some content away for free and locking some behind a pay wall. Obviously using all of that to train a model without paying anything implies that they never had a subscription, but if they did have one and gave the model access? What's the difference between that and paying someone to read all those articles? What's the difference between training a model and paying an employee while training them to expertise? We're acting like these models are some kind of machine that chops up text and regurgitates it, but that could describe your average college freshman just as well. We're fast approaching the point where the distinction is meaningless. We can't treat model training any different from teaching a student.

I subscribe to !newcommunities@lemmy.world which helps. Other than that I look for mentions of other communities in comments, similar to how I used to on reddit.

You can hear James' voice in some of the more heinous quotes :(

I just gave this a play-through because of your recommendation. What an adorable game! Thank you for sharing it.

 

When visiting a new lemmy instance to find communities, you have to copy the !community@server link from the description to your instance's search bar. If a chrome/firefox extension could detect that a lemmy instance is loaded and automatically add "Subscribe on [homeinstance.url]" buttons where the normal subscribe button would be, I think it'd go a long way toward making the "Fediverse" easy for new users. Apologies if this exists and I just couldn't find it.
