Technology@lemmy.world•GitHub is no longer independent at Microsoft after CEO resignationEnglish
4·4 months agoThe company I worked at got acquired by a big tech company. We’re switching from Google suite to Microsoft, Mac to Windows, Slack to Teams, etc. It’s pretty painful as transitions go, and if not for golden handcuffs I’d be gone.
I’m not sure if I’ll ever be happy with Visual Studio though, so I use Jetbrains Rider.

Technology@lemmy.world•Reddit users in the UK must now upload selfies to access NSFW subredditsEnglish
4·5 months agoI identify as a zebra crossing.
When I deliver it as a response to a request I have to deliver the gzipped version if nothing else. To get to a point where I’m poisoning an AI I’m assuming it’s going to require gigabytes of data transfer that I pay for.
At best I’m adding to the power consumption of AI.
I wonder, can I serve it ads and get paid?
This is surely trivial to detect. If the number of pages on the site is greater than some insanely high number then just drop all data from that site from the training data.
It’s not like I can afford to compete with OpenAI on bandwidth, and they’re burning through money with no cares already.

Technology@lemmy.world•Duolingo deletes all its TikTok videos after AI backlash—and then returns with a strange messageEnglish

Technology@lemmy.world•Duolingo CEO says AI is a better teacher than humans—but schools will exist ‘because you still need childcare’English
249·7 months agoI’m sure this won’t be a popular comment, but I can see how having a motivated learner in a 1:1 lesson with an AI might be better for that person than sitting in a class with 35 other people, most of whom don’t want to be there, running through a syllabus that the teacher may not even like, at the pace of the slowest kid in class.
For YouTube, viewers aren’t the users, advertisers are.
Hey, stop trolling!

Technology@lemmy.world•Audible unveils plans to use AI voices to narrate audiobooksEnglish
3·7 months agoI completely agree. I don’t even like it when the human reader clearly doesn’t understand what they’re saying, so some AI flatly telling me the story isn’t going to cut it.
For the humans, someone mispronounced “quay” for example. “La Jolla” was another standout mistake that took me out of the story.

Technology@lemmy.world•Netflix will show generative AI ads midway through streams in 2026English
32·7 months agoI was looking to cut down on subscriptions and picked Netflix as an experimental one. I haven’t missed it at all. Things like this make me less likely to occasionally reactivate for a couple of months as I was originally planning.
I wonder when they’ll see a big enough effect to break their current run of fucking over their customers.

23·7 months agoI lost my job in April 2024 and I finally got my new job at the end of January. Keep your chin up. Look for people you know who could give referrals. That’s how I ended up getting hired. Good luck!

Lizard shedding its tail rather than getting anywhere near me.

For every person switching from Windows to Linux, how many people got a new Chromebook or a Mac, or just do everything on their phones or a tablet?
I have a Linux machine myself, and I love having it, but I don’t think the user base is growing particularly quickly as a percentage of PC OS installations.
Right after Linux on desktop takes off, which is sure to happen any day now.

I know why you included both, but saying “1 adb command” and then posting two is funny to me.
