Technology@lemmy.world•Linux lays down the law on AI-generated code, says yes to Copilot, no to AI slop, and humans take the fall for mistakes — after months of fierce debate, Torvalds and maintainers come to an agreementEnglish
32·2 days agoIsn’t that the rule? The author has to be a human?
The new guidelines mandate that AI agents cannot use the legally binding “Signed-off-by” tag, requiring instead a new “Assisted-by” tag for transparency. Ultimately, the policy legally anchors every single line of AI-generated code and any resulting bugs or security flaws firmly onto the shoulders of the human submitting it.

79·5 days agoAs for why they did decide to leave now, they explain that their posts are being viewed by significantly less people now than in the past, so there is basically nobody left to help off the sinking ship any more.

Climate@slrpnk.net•40% of global ship traffic is simply moving fossil fuels around! Renewables make much of this traffic obsolete0·1 month agoApprently my information is outdated. For a long time, wind turbines used electromagnets (the fact check is from 2016), but it looks like they are starting to use permanent magnets now (which require rare earths). They still don’t need them, and I think a lot of the ones using permanent magnets are from countries which have rare earths, but I will update my initial comment since I don’t want to move the goalposts.
In any case, there is a commenter above that mentioned solar, which according to my link does not need rare earth minerals.
I think the world bank report is a good read, regardless.

Climate@slrpnk.net•40% of global ship traffic is simply moving fossil fuels around! Renewables make much of this traffic obsolete2·1 month agoNot wind with sodium ion batteries. EDIT: Source
EDIT: This comment is based on outdated information (see the below thread). A growing number of wind turbines are switching from electromagnets to permanent magnets, the latter of which use rare earth minerals. You could still make wind turbines with electromagnets, but that does likely give countries with rare earth minerals a competitive advantage.

how do you know someone’s vegan? they’ll tell you
That statement reads to me the same as “how do you know someone has food allergies? They’ll tell you.”
EDIT: Just to be clear, I know that allergies are different than boycotts. If the girl could get anaphylactic shock from a drop of milk, the dad would be justified in reacting that way. However, in both cases, it makes sense to inform people that you can’t/won’t eat something.

Technology@lemmy.world•Jack Dorsey's New Company Falling Apart as It Forces Employees to Use AIEnglish
10·2 months agoFrom reading all the comments from the community, it’s amazing (yet not surprising) that all these managers have fallen for the marketing of all these LLMs
This is probably related to automation bias and wishful thinking

It’s a whitelist. Only phone numbers you explicitly allow can send commands. Alternatively, you can choose to enable a pin that must be given in order to execute commands.
FindMyDevice. Alternative to Google’s find my device. You send a text from a different phone number, and you can do things like get the GPS location, lock the device, erase the device, ring the device, or have the device take a picture of its location.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you believe that most people of your political creed don't?
281·1 year agoI believe that the stance against nuclear power (specifically, nuclear fission, as opposed to radioisotope power used by spacecraft) by greens undermines the fight to stop global warming, and that many of the purported issues with nuclear power have been solved or were never really issues in the first place.
For instance: the nuclear waste produced by old-gen reactors can be used by newer generations.




I’m assuming the author is talking about mobile keyboards, which have autocomplete and autocorrect.
