So you probably have to go and fix it now. Good luck.

It’s a joke… Before I’m sentenced to death by downvotes.

Learning how Systemd manages the network was a total mindfuck. There are so many alternatives, all of them being used differently by different tools, partially supported. networkd, Network Manager… There were other tools, they shared similar files but had them in different /etc or /usr folders. There were unexpected interactions between the tools… Oh man, it was so bad. I was very disappointed.

I was really into learning how things really worked in Linux and this was a slap to my face because my mindset was “Linux is so straightforward”. No, it is not, it is actually a mess like most systems. I know this isn’t a “Linux” issue, I’m just ranting about this specific ecosystem.

And yet, the worst design choice was how this meme template was used.

I honestly don’t get why everyone is agreeing with Windows on this one. I just love how explicit Linux is.

file.txt is fucking file.txt. Don’t do any type extra magic. Do exactly as I’m saying. If I say “open file.txt”, it is “open file.txt”, not “open File.txt”.

The feature isn’t being able to create filenames with the same name, nobody does that. The feature is how explicit it is.

It would be so confusing to read some code trying to access FILE.TXT and then find the filesystem has file.txt

The moment you finally install arch and your realize you still feel empty inside.

The same people who didn’t understand that Google uses a SEO algorithm to promote sites regardless of the accuracy of their content, so they would trust the first page.

If people don’t understand the tools they are using and don’t double check the information from single sources, I think it’s kinda on them. I have a dietician friend, and I usually get back to him after doing my “Google research” for my diets… so much misinformation, even without an AI overview. Search engines are just best effort sources of information. Anyone using Google for anything of actual importance is using the wrong tool, it isn’t a scholar or research search engine.

It really depends on the type of information that you are looking for. Anyone who understands how LLMs work, will understand when they’ll get a good overview.

I usually see the results as quick summaries from an untrusted source. Even if they aren’t exact, they can help me get perspective. Then I know what information to verify if something relevant was pointed out in the summary.

Today I searched something like “Are owls endangered?”. I knew I was about to get a great overview because it’s a simple question. After getting the summary, I just went into some pages and confirmed what the summary said. The summary helped me know what to look for even if I didn’t trust it.

It has improved my search experience… But I do understand that people would prefer if it was 100% accurate because it is a search engine. If you refuse to tolerate innacurate results or you feel your search experience is worse, you can just disable it. Nobody is forcing you to keep it.

It’s an expression. In this context Elon is the broken clock and saying desktops should run Linux is one of the rare times he’s been right about something.

You know you can disable the AI overview from Google, right?

The whole article is blaming t"the cloud" as if it didn’t serve services consumed by users. What do they want? To shut down the internet?

Energy transition is something these companies are working on.

Reaching these goals isn’t easy.

You haven’t said a single fact. All you do is assume things and insult people who don’t agree with you.

What fact?

Personal attacks and insults, what a disgusting person.

I don’t care what you think, your attitude is disgusting.

You can have human-level conversations with a tool. I don’t get your point. Just because it doesn’t have full human intelligence doesn’t mean it isn’t good at conversation. It is better at conversation than most humans. It is obviously not smarter than a human, but it is more eloquent and has more general knowledge than the average human.

We are the first humans who can have a human level conversation with something that is not a human. What do you think human conversations look like? They are not very deep in general.

Pretty funny you think you convinced me it is a tool when I just showed you like 8 different ways I use it as a tool.

I literally started this thing saying that even if it isn’t perfect, it is pretty good and it a crazy achievement. You just keep saying it is worthless shit, but that’s not true. Just because the tool isn’t perfect it doesn’t mean that it is worthless or it isn’t an achievement.

But whatever man… You just want to be right, so take your imaginary trophy and walk away.

You just inflated my initial statement by assuming I meant that Chatgpt is smarter than humans. I said that Chatgpt is more advanced than the average human at linguistics, and I stand by it. Show me where I said “Chatgpt is smarter than a human” or “this is real simulated human intelligence”. You just wanted to be angry at someone so you made your narrative in your mind.

I even said that it doesn’t need to be real intelligence in order to be capable of having a conversation.

You’ll probably keep creating your imaginary narrative, so there’s no point in arguing with you.

Good bye.

👍

Yes, I’ll keep using it because it helps me get things done faster, just like vehicles help me move faster.

Read everything you wrote again. You’re so toxic and irrational. It’s just a tool man, just understand its limitations and work with it. It’s very useful even if it isn’t perfect.

Nobody has said that an LLM is real artificial intelligence.
