@ownlife yeah. In my experience those toxic traits stems from a desire to be taken "seriously", a desire for others to behave more "grown-up".

@ownlife the most grown-up you can be is daring to be childish. In my experience its the attempt to behave like a "grown-up" that is the most destructive.

@rachelwilliams My current understanding is that quantum computers removes at best one power, that would be power ten or equivalent to a doubling every decade or so. Quantum computers has huge effect at power two where they can turn the scaling linear.

Regardless its a huge engineering effort.

@rachelwilliams The main problem I have with these kinds of models is that they scale terribly. My under standing is they scale at power 11, meaning that doubling in performance would require 2000 times the compute. If that is remotely true it would take about two decades for every doubling of performance. Considering that what the models are capable of is improving at a moderate pace, even with evergrater resources, it doesn't seem unreasonable that it might be true.

@trashrobot@kolektiva.social Yeah, pretty close to hitting the nail on the head with that one. How we (should) commoditize value is probably one of the biggest unsolved problems of our times.

@tooheymatthew shouldn't. Jokes are best not understood.

@tooheymatthew You can't explain a joke.

@tooheymatthew @catsalad What joke?

@aspiringcat 1984 is political satire. Animal farm is a way better book if that is what you are looking for.

@sean that sounds about right, just remember it varies a lot based on where in the orbit we are.

@sean The tide is caused by the Sun as much as the Moon. The effects of Gravity is cancelled out by the Sun and Moon. The water is "pulled away" from the Earth on one side (towards the Sun) and the Earth from the water on the opposite, causing both of the tides that occurs in one day. If the Moon and Sun are on the same or opposite side of the Earth the tides becomes more pronounced, that's why you have high tides twice a month.

@marcan@treehouse.systems that sounds like the kind of broken that only an software engineer can invent.

@Beeflower @MishaalRahman Samsung got their identity stolen and the actor that stole it is spreading malicious apps with it. Apps that looks to your phone as if they are distributed by Samsung, meaning the phone can't tell the difference between them and core apps. This results in malicious actors having, potentially, complete control over an infected phone.

This problem should already be mitigated.

@notfunnyelle@mstdn.social I solved that by pulling the battery out of my Gordon Ramsay, hasn't screamed once at me since.

@quincy @Lundemo @UncleDuke1969 hard to say, but for reference if the pan had been filled we wouldn't be talking about it now. I would guess an microscope would have been necessary to have seen the salad, given that the building seems intact.

@janie@mastodon.lol I wish I remembered what it's called, but it's common among all mammals as far as I know.

Is editing toot breaking replys a commonly understood problem, or is it a unique "feature" of my server/client?

@AtomicCowBell for some definitions of those terms, I guess they could apply to me?
