Something run by schools. Did a quick search: https://www.finalsite.com/blog/p/~board/b/post/facebook-grou...

> It's been a while, but when I worked in the education sector we had systems for students to upload their work, get graded, feedback, reports etc. Yeah, you could upload .pngs and .jpgs but it's hardly 'the next contact in the list' or 'maybe they had the same first or last name' in those scenarios, you upload the work for specific classes/courses. Obviously that's a single system, I don't know the full scope of what schools use these days.

As you (unintentionally) point out, there's money to be made/data to be acquired in Education. A few years ago, before Covid, one of my siblings had to use a cloud offering because of school. I forgot which, Microsoft Team for Education maybe, or Facebook Education Groups. I just remember being disapointed. People are use to their interface, and they have the money to lobby and ads, easier to sell something "free" with easy onboarding to schools administrators.

> No, nothing will change my mind that forwarding nude pictures of minors to literally anyone other than a law enforcement case handler is acceptable.

Who made the case it was acceptable?

The grand-parent (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40061547) :

> It’s more complicated than that. Due to a new law in Germany, a teacher getting to know that these images are floating around and forwarding them to the respective parent could be charged for distributing child porn.

I was only adressing how this hypothetical teacher could have had access to it, not what they should do about it, since you were making very strong suppositions about it.

> Do kids typically have their teachers phone numbers in their contacts? Have them added on Facebook? Follow them on Insta?

Is it that rare for some teacher (even in high school) to receive some of their students work online? And didn't the Covid situation with remote classes, Zoom, etc, made it possible for such a thing (students having some way of contacting their teachers online) to be way more common now than before?

Anyway, not sure anything I can say could change your mind.

Edit: About what should the teacher do in that case, this was my assumption, I may be wrong, but I think when @pflenker was mentionning this law, they only tried to put it in a scenario in relation with the thread were we could think that child pronography wasn't involved, similar to when @DoreenMichele was mentionning the fact that a teenager sharing (with consent) a nude with other teenagers should not be charged and labeled as CP.

> https://xkcd.com/1254/ <<< very relevant.

This made me laugh so hard I hate it. I hate that it feels just like something I would do/have done.

> how the hell would a teacher have access to the image to forward to the parents?

By accident? The teacher and the and the other teen have the same first or last name, or the next one in the contact list, or the autofill rearranged just before clicking, or just one missclick... there are so many ways it could have happened.

In a future where most of the data of the 21st century has been lost, I wonder what future archeologist will think of our worship of Rick Astley.

Somebody somewhere will probably see this and build the framework to build something similar out of Framework parts. That is, if it hasn't be done already.

From the article, should have the speed of a ~36b.

Or worse, your final message gets silently filtered out by the recipient's Gmail/Hotmail for some reason.

It was more a referende to the act of boiling water. The observer at that point might not yet know if it's just a correlation or not. Just gathering information.

Warfare may have helped. When you see often enough some injuries and how people recover (or not) from them, some may see patterns and intuit recovery mechanism:

- Injuries to the lungs aren't always fatal but patients tend to have lasting breathing problems.

- Liver injuries... hmmm, make your eyes turn yellowish, and it seems like those who come from the region where they drink hot water with some plant inside tend to fare better than those who don't, and if you survive, eyes return to normal and you can make a full recovery.

I think they are sensitive to "rapid" temperature changes.

Their gut microbiomes can adapt, but probably not that fast.

Haiti used to have a thriving rice production and could feed itself. In the 90s, the then government made some bad decisions when dealing with the IMF and reduced import taxes to almost nothing. At which point, farmers where not able to compete anymore, and the dark spiral began.

This is not a limit of making things accessible. This is a bureaucratic/legal/funds limit. Had they told you "for accessibility, we will build an alternative route and handle the cost", would you have said "No, thanks"?

"improving things" and "mandatory requirements that, in some cases, can go against common sense" are not the same things.

I forgot where I saw that, but generally, improving things for people with disabilities improves things for everyone, like making sidewalks wheelchair friendly helps parents with a stroller, or people carrying heavy stuff, walking with a cane, young children on bicycles, people who can't see well...

I think all those are just other instances of the Blue Dot Effect

If I understand correctly:

RAM Wise, you can easily run a 70b with 128GB, 8x7B is obviously less than that.

Compute wise, I suppose it would be a bit slower than running a 13b.

edit: "actually", I think it might be faster than a 13b. 8 random 7b ~= 115GB, Mixtral is under 90. I will have to wait for more info/understanding.

If LLMs have models (tokens), there are definitely tokens inside said models, and a program can manipulate them.

It's an LLM, "pretending" and "truly beleiving" are the same, or rather don't exist.

It's like, when you use prompts like : "You're an helpful assistant", is it believing, pretending, or beleiving to be pretending to be an helpful assistant?

It's as funny as disconcerting to see intent and will attributed to probabiltities. Feels sometimes like we're close to making a religion out of this. History of the human race, i guess (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuCn8ux2gbs for the ref).

That's assuming the drama is not part of the multi-stage plan.

My bad, it's the t470s

My bad, it's with the t470s

Maybe it will work. But mine has more than 50% degradation on both, and I run Nixos from RAM and don't do serious work on it, so I don't care about the shutdowns.

Is GNU/Donut source code indented to have the shape of a donut?

Or maybe some displays that show ascii donuts: https://www.a1k0n.net/2011/07/20/donut-math.html

For people eyeing a T480s, make sure both batteries inside don't have too much degradation. At some point, the switch from one battery to the other doesn't work properly and the laptop will most times suddenly switch off when battery #1 reaches 0%, even if the 2nd one is at 100%, no matter how many recalibrations you do.

Avoid the T480S

It has 2 internal batteries, and with older batteries, they can fail to switch from one to the other when they reach 0%. Models with a removable battery are a bit bulkier, but I think of greater value.
