@tasty4ever1 Para ser exactos, todos los oncólogos son hijos de su madre. Y la mayoría son grandes profesionales que intentan salvar vidas. Que no siempre lo logran, o no siempre son daños colaterales, pues no. Pero de ahí a tus insultos…

Lo siento, pero la mayoría de oncólogos son unos hijos de su madre. A un conocido mío le diagnosticaron un tumor de esòfago. Le metieron quimioterapia a tope y al poco tiempo empezò a no poder tragar y a echar unas babas muy blancas. El diagnóstico del médico es que el tumor le

@tasty4ever1 Las quimios funcionan solo de 4 al 5% de la población, el 95% muere, tú me dirás si esa 💩 sirve, pues no, te quema los órganos, los achicharra. Los doctores por protocolo te dicen, bueno, tienes que hacerte quimios, pero cuando les dices que no, que vas por otras opciones, se 👇

@veganibalecter Como catalán, bilingüe y cansado no puedo evitar una pequeña satisfacción de ver que ahora les ha dado con el gallego. Ya volverán pero al menos descansamos un poco😏

@veganibalecter Yo diría que, en general, quien trata de paleto a los demás, o a un subgrupo, lingüístico o de otro tipo, se está retratatando a si mismo. También es verdad que las guerras lingüísticas acaban cansando a los unos y a los otros.

A mí me tenéis que explicar CON ARGUMENTOS porqué gente que sólo sabe hablar un idioma llama PALETOS a gente bilingüe. Y ya de paso, si hay algún lingüista o sociólogo o similar por ahí que me diga si este fenómeno es exclusivo de España

@svpino I was reading slowly without having seen the image and was wondering what book this might be? To be honest, I can think of a few that are beyond bigger atrocities 😅

I'm no longer sure what to think about this book. It was a fantastic book during a time when most of these ideas seemed valuable, but it's also responsible for some of the biggest atrocities I've witnessed. I no longer recommend people to read it. I haven't been in while.

Una reflexió amarga però amb la que costa molt no coincidir, en part o plenament. Com deia aquell, Perdoneu, però algú ho havia de dir! ara.cat/129_52e685

@mireiacamacho75 @encenall A mi em sembla la resposta mes raonable. Cadascú te uns drets i uns deures. Si ells no els compleixen que s’atenguin a les conseqüències, que tampoc son tan greus😏

Sóc corregint treballs d'universitaris de primer curs i no veig q més puc fer. Els he fet una fitxa amb la descripció del treball (no la llegeixen mai), vaig explicar breument el treball a classe (no prenen apunts) i vaig deixar 3h de classe per fer recerca (fan altres coses)😑🔫

Coding is over. Now what? I've been wrong for a long time. I wrote about my feelings on AI, coding, and the future of software development in my blog. Link below.

Norm Matloff 你有冇諗清楚呀?
On LLMs and PhDs: To me the notable thing about China's DeepSeek is not technical innovation -- it's a good product, but no brilliant or even clever advances IMO -- is that apparently most of the engineers working on it have only Bachelor's degrees. I'll take a sharp Bachelor's person over a plodder PhD any day. But there is even more to the point that hiring only PhDs may be a poor strategy for those in the LLM business. One often sees discussion of an LLM's ability to solve problems from the Math Olympiad and similar contests. Though the LLMs' ability to do so says a lot about the math contests -- those math problems have more of an underlying pattern to mimic than people will admit to themselves -- the focus on the contests is a reflection of the PhD mentality, "Wouldn't be cool to do well in the Olympiads?" I'd rather the LLMs do well on questions like, "Please explain how governments create money." I actually gave that query to several major LLMs just now, and I wasn't really happy with any of their responses. Optimizing a system for trait A typically means compromising on trait B, even if all this occurs unconciously. I do agree that the advent of LLMs has huge potential to help advance the status of humanity. But maybe you LLM companies might consider hiring some people who have only a Bachelor's or Master's?

@farmaceuticsbcn he anat a la Farmacia a  comprar Atorvastatina i Naproxeno, sense receptes perquè @mufaceoficial no envia talonaris des de fa mes d’un mes. A la meva Farmacia no me’ls han venut sense recepta, però a  la del costat sí. Qui ho ha fet malament?

Andrew Ng@AndrewYNg·
Some people today are discouraging others from learning programming on the grounds AI will automate it. This advice will be seen as some of the worst career advice ever given. I disagree with the Turing Award and Nobel prize winner who wrote, “It is far more likely that the programming occupation will become extinct [...] than that it will become all-powerful. More and more, computers will program themselves.”​ Statements discouraging people from learning to code are harmful! In the 1960s, when programming moved from punchcards (where a programmer had to laboriously make holes in physical cards to write code character by character) to keyboards with terminals, programming became easier. And that made it a better time than before to begin programming. Yet it was in this era that Nobel laureate Herb Simon wrote the words quoted in the first paragraph. Today’s arguments not to learn to code continue to echo his comment. As coding becomes easier, more people should code, not fewer! Over the past few decades, as programming has moved from assembly language to higher-level languages like C, from desktop to cloud, from raw text editors to IDEs to AI assisted coding where sometimes one barely even looks at the generated code (which some coders recently started to call vibe coding), it is getting easier with each step. I wrote previously that I see tech-savvy people coordinating AI tools to move toward being 10x professionals — individuals who have 10 times the impact of the average person in their field. I am increasingly convinced that the best way for many people to accomplish this is not to be just consumers of AI applications, but to learn enough coding to use AI-assisted coding tools effectively. One question I’m asked most often is what someone should do who is worried about job displacement by AI. My answer is: Learn about AI and take control of it, because one of the most important skills in the future will be the ability to tell a computer exactly what you want, so it can do that for you. Coding (or getting AI to code for you) is a great way to do that. When I was working on the course Generative AI for Everyone and needed to generate AI artwork for the background images, I worked with a collaborator who had studied art history and knew the language of art. He prompted Midjourney with terminology based on the historical style, palette, artist inspiration and so on — using the language of art — to get the result he wanted. I didn’t know this language, and my paltry attempts at prompting could not deliver as effective a result. Similarly, scientists, analysts, marketers, recruiters, and people of a wide range of professions who understand the language of software through their knowledge of coding can tell an LLM or an AI-enabled IDE what they want much more precisely, and get much better results. As these tools are continuing to make coding easier, this is the best time yet to learn to code, to learn the language of software, and learn to make computers do exactly what you want them to do.
