To be fair, programming is basically the art of making the computer do as much as possible with as little typing as possible.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Should paternity tests be done right after a baby is born so the supposed father can be sure he’s the biological dad before any legal recognition?
11·3 days agoEven if we do this, paternity tests are not guaranteed correct. This has the possibility to cause so much unneeded drama.

Technology@lemmy.world•Gemini lies to user about health info, says it wanted to make him feel betterEnglish
2·3 days agoIt’s not really even errors. It is well-suited for what it was designed. It produced pretty good text. It’s just that we’re using it for stuff it’s not suited for. Like digging a hole with a spoon, then complaining your hands hurt.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How can we protect kids from the harms of social media without sacrificing everyone's privacy?
31·3 days agoThe government already knows all our ages, right? They issue our IDs after all. Have the government provide a “yes, this person is over 18” service. There are ways of providing signed files/tokens which don’t contain personal information.
If the government wants to write a law, then I think it’s reasonable they’re also responsible to help with a solution.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Community feedback request regarding Rule 6: "No Politics"
0·4 days agoFair, but nuanced rules are difficult to enforce, and somewhat open to interpretation. This leads to people trying to skirt the rules and also good faith posts which break the rules which leads to conflict also.
I think it’s better to keep things as simple as possible, as long as the rule is good enough.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Community feedback request regarding Rule 6: "No Politics"
01·4 days agoI don’t see a problem with a bunch of European-specific questions being asked, so I question the need for an expanded rule.
If you broaden the rule, you run at risk of banning or discouraging desirable questions. Stuff about economics or lifestyle. Those are “political” too, after all.

Depends on which was first, right?
