Maybe there is confusion in what I am saying. Yes. That is not ChatGPT’s API:
What I mean is - it literally has an API server you can run yourself if you want to programmatically talk to it. Here is a screenshot of the menu option.
I think it’s especially the money and LGBTQ+ and non sexual norms that are driving people to the right. I notice when I talk to a lot of younger guys theyre tired of hearing about it.
Because it’s pushed on so much of their TV shows and things they like that they side with political candidates that are conservative at a young age and they further grow into it. These are conservative candidates with lots of money usually.
I hate to say it but it was universally cool to defend LGBT people when the media and TV shows didn’t push it. Because you were defending an oppressed person. Now it more so feels like it’s popular which means it’s no longer an obscure thing, the anti culture is the new trend.
I want to disclaim that I don’t agree with any of this other than to say this is my observation of the behavior. I play rainbow six ranked on Xbox and use the looking for group party finder with a buddy of mine. We group up and encounter a lot of guys in the army and Marines, a lot of teenagers and this is cumulatively the culture I’ve heard. Same thing on like world of warcraft classic and using discord to raid but those guys run older typically.
People aren’t that great online at hearing what you mean not what you’re saying. The implications normally drawn by assuming the other person is either of basic intelligence or aware of the context are thrown out the window in favor of Internet points.
It’s exhausting. Sometimes that’s why I like mastodon or twitter or threads or nostr. Whatever pick your poison. Point is I want to say my fucking piece and not have to add all this extra context so the other person doesn’t call me an idiot on some niche part of what I said.
Thinking about it from the commenters perspective: People online need to go back to just saying what they actually meant to say without prefacing everything. If that happened we’d at least have a more fulfilling experience. There’s a reason folks leave knee jerk comments and don’t elaborate further because the sentiment is popular too.
I have to ask how do you like the pine book pro?
I have one of their phones but the software at the time was really under developed so it mostly sat for a few years
I ended up figuring out im averaging about 120w on my desktop which isn’t bad at all.
A web browser, a code editor and some docker containers or binaries. Nothing incredibly strenuous. Like I’m not gaming.
Definitely will look into the MacBooks power consumption. The logic checks out for sure. I have to measure my current laptops too.
Thank you! Appreciate it
You’re right. Maybe u/gnubyte is our savior?!
His patreon is loaded with funny and tech posts.
🌶️🥵Many people consume Facebook meta company’s tech stack wholesale, don’t know how to actually traditionally program their way out of a paper bag, and web dev and devops caused a massive layoff (250k people) at the end of 2022, start of 2023 because it was all vaporware. They consume the same software in droves if the other guy uses it.
There is an entire subculture around it that is just a bunch of medium.com writers, YouTubers and twitter handles just trying to get the clicks for their ad money. Some of these guys have never written valid software or done anything noteworthy. If you meet them head on you’d find they have enormous egos and can’t find a counter argument when presented with reason.
I’ll even add on that there are many programmers who don’t know how to code outside a web app.
Why is something like [react, graphql, react ssr, devops, tailwind, unit tests, containers] vaporware?
You know the stuff I don’t hear about?
No. They’ll just name an entire lineup of the worlds biggest computers after your daughter.
Isn’t Biden 80 years old?
This is a misplay but if you look at the numbers Kennedy is losing to Biden in polls by a large 50% margin but also I’ve never heard of this site so beware its credibility:
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-primary-d/2024/national/
I’m not keen on Biden continuing at his age. Because you’re voting for his vice president at that age.
I don’t think Biden could beat Trump again. Every person who got laid off during Bidens administration will have something to say about it in the voting booth. Democrats need to push up a better candidate.
Gaming. It used to be an MMO for like $15 a month. Now it’s a new game for $70, the game has DLC for $20-$30 or skins or some battle pass.
You’re about to make a lot of enemies 😂
Last time someone posted this stupid fucking article up on a different tech lemmy I got into it with some single brain cells morons.
It’s open source tech. You could fork the entire thing if you didn’t like the CEO. Who cares.
I wonder if they know that starfield is coming out, no man’s sky’s been available forever, and there’s a plethora of other games out there.
I think people are addicted to a fantasy.
I had the same idea but there’s a lot of actual tangible assets that have to be dealt with.
The first part is picking a pilot country which is probably where the developer lives. The second is either investing in or partnering with Fast ship locations - you need a service or partner that you can use like Amazon prime to store inventory across a country, and last is shipping and delivery maybe it’s baked in. I bet there’s a company that does this that has an API or partnership program.
In other words you have to establish partnerships or literally incentivize real people to invest in order to create the same value as Amazon. The magic of amazon isn’t really that’s it’s like eBay and buying things online, it’s that I can get it so soon.
Hmm.
I think capitalism isn’t the problem nor is liking and consuming a product or experience. We have great products turned into entire experiences here in the US, and I’m not terribly upset anymore about it.
The problem is the late stage unchecked capitalism running rampant. I think allowing individuals the freedom to pursue their ideas and allow others to even build livelihoods from it works great. But there’s gotta be checks and balances, its what the USA was founded on.
😂 thanks for the chuckle
Its locally hosted including the model and the runtime. You can have your program open up a server and bind ports locally if you want to run your own server and not just a desktop GUI.
