  • No, there’s a massive difference between doing something local and doing something over a hotpluggable connection.

    USB by default, especially in Windows, does a lot of extra work to make sure nothing gets corrupted in transit, and that if the cable comes unplugged, nothing gets corrupted.

    When you unzip on your local system, it’s just like sending an accountant into the back to unbox something. It’s one process, going as fast as they can, with local resources ready at hand.

    When transferring a ton of files over USB, it’d be more like asking someone over the phone to send the contents of the box over, one by one. So now you have someone on the far end rummaging around for stuff meant for the box, packaging it up and sending items off one by one, telling a second person at the receiving end about each in turn, and only moving on once the receiver confirmed that one item came across OK.

    The difference is insane. It’s probably even more overhead than the above example implies.









  • It’s just more AI garbage. OP is either straight up scamming, or bought into the delusions of the “AI” bubble.

    Even when a model is trained on available instructions for a given language or library, they struggle to spit anything out that’s not either a direct reference to an example, or the only possibly coherent thing from a set of instructions likely larger than the code it will generate anyways…

    If you dig around AI projects, so many of their readme files or even published documentation are this concept-only, word salad trash indicative of a moron prodding an LLM to do the heavy lifting for them. As if LLMs could even actually reason or think…

    It sounds like trash because it is trash.


  • I mean, Lemmy is designed to be a replacement for Reddit, not forums. It should comes as no surprise that it encapsulates and continues the norms Reddit popularized.

    You may want to expand on your last paragraph. Not only does that sound like where most of your opinion is, but I cannot really tell what that main opinion is.

    What tropes did Reddit try to own? IMO, Spez et. al. are not intelligent enough to target, “owning common tropes”. I think they just made a twist on forums and it stuck.

    Who sets those expectations? I hope it’s not your boss, personally telling you to wear makeup. I hope it’s not a husband or SO telling you you need to wear makeup to be presentable.

    I’d say it’s very obvious that the flippant comments are informed by culture, and not yours or their personally set expectations. (I mean, unless you have an asshole boss that does try to set expectations, but I’m not hearing that in what was said so far)

    I agree the plastic surgery stuff is just crazy. Though the unrealistic beauty standards are definitely a cultural thing. It’s only ever going to be a cultural thing under capitalism, whre what ever expectation, realistic or not, that is most ‘pretty’ will be used in advertisements. It basically guarantees saturation of unrealistic expectations.

    No, it’s definitely the culture telling most women they need to look pretty. Most women don’t have someone constantly saying, “gee you’re ugly without makeup”. It’s just implied by marketing and campaigns and Hollywood glamour expectations the culture soaks up.
