Electric Vehicles@slrpnk.net•Electric coaches replace trains in the Netherlands
1·4 months agoThis has to be one of the worst headlines ever… and the article is pretty terrible as well, probably “written” by AI.
It’s also from almost 1 year ago, so not anything recent.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Coincidentally, FFM peg is also something you can find on the hub
14·4 months agoYes? What makes you think I’m not? I’m definitely not some kind of alien, you know wearing a human suit like some sort of second skin. Nah that would be crazy.

7·4 months agoYou would have to ask a doctor, don’t take medical advice from the internet.
From what I know it can irritate the skin and can lead to long term issues with the skin like dermatitis. It can also cause blood vessels to rupture under the skin, which is usually not a big issue and will heal. But it can cause some pain and leave a mark when healed and will only heal when it is given time to rest up, which can be hard if one is used to a lot of masturbation. If it isn’t allowed to heal, it can cause more problems. I’m sure there can be more issues, but I don’t know about those.
A lot of the risks of masturbation are myths or exaggerated a lot. Wanking once or twice a day is probably fine. And your body will let you know when you’ve overdone it.
And to add: Poor hygiene is a lot bigger risk than masturbation ever is. Keep your bottoms clean!

1651·4 months agoPORNHUB
It’s Pornhub, like https://pornhub.com/. One of the biggest (if not the biggest) porn site on the planet, used by millions if not billions. There is nothing wrong with watching porn if you feel like it. What you do in your own home is your own business. Just don’t wank too much, or you are going to have health issues. Which are also totally normal and you should just go talk to your doctor, they will not be surprised or shocked, it is literally their job to deal with stuff like that.
I feel the world is going crazy. Shoving all of this stuff under the carpet isn’t helping anyone and won’t make it go away. Half of the time I can’t understand my young niece and nephew because they speak in this code language, evolving all the time so they can talk about normal stuff young people talk about and stay ahead of the big censor machine. And often it’s censored so poorly, everyone can still read it, like what was the point then?

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•I wonder if this was made by AI or a shit programmer
17·4 months agoNot below average dev necessarily, but when posting code examples on the internet people often try to get a point across. Like how do I solve X? Here is code that solves X perfectly, the rest of the code is total crap, ignore that and focus on the X part. Because it’s just an example, it doesn’t really matter. But when it’s used to train an LLM it’s all just code. It doesn’t know which parts are important and which aren’t.
And this becomes worse when small little bits of code are included in things like tutorials. That means it’s copy pasted all over the place, on forums, social media, stackoverflow etc. So it’s weighted way more heavily. And the part where the tutorial said: “Warning, this code is really bad and insecure, it’s just an example to show this one thing” gets lost in the shuffle.
Same thing when an often used pattern when using a framework gets replaced by new code where the framework does a little bit more so the same pattern isn’t needed anymore. The LLM will just continue with the old pattern, even though there’s often a good reason it got replaced (for example security issues). And if the new and old version aren’t compatible with each other, you are in for a world of hurt trying to use an LLM.
And now with AI slop flooding all of these places where they used to get their data, it just becomes worse and worse.
These are just some of the issues why using an LLM for coding is probably a really bad idea.

TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Exercise is imporant
13·4 months agoCut to LaForge explaining to a nurse how he broke his hand punching Data in the face for the third time this week. O’Brien is in the background, he fucked up his shoulder again on the holodeck, Crusher could just permanently fix it but instead goes for a very mild painkiller and tells him to not be a bitch.
Yes, normal people do this all the time when they are alone. Talking to ones self is pretty much an universal thing, especially when alone, but sometimes even when in company of others.

Green Energy@slrpnk.net•Can somebody please explain why the world hasn't gone nuclear yet?
43·5 months agoThere has to be more to the story than that, as medical tools using radiation have had terrible accidents, but are still used a lot all over the world. And for example every day there are terrible accidents with motorcycles and in some countries that’s basically the primary mode of transportation for most people.
The true story has to be a bit more complex and nuanced?

YSK this is actually a bad idea. By repeatedly damaging the skin this way you can actually trigger a nerve condition where the ends of your nerves just send pain signals all the time. People who work in professions where they scrub their hands a lot for their work are at risk of this. It’s probably fine to do every once in a while, but don’t make it a regular thing.
The chance is small, but I know a few folk who were real men when they were younger so they didn’t wear gloves when they really should have. Just don’t worry about it and scrub it off was the mindset back then and men wearing PPE were (and sometime are) seen as weak. But they describe the pain as getting stabbed in the hand repeatedly and wish they just wore the gloves.
The monkey paw curls: all insects and other “bugs” are gone now, the food chain collapses bottom up and the human race is just about extinct within 10 years.
I don’t think this has anything to do with ADHD, it’s just a little shortcut you can use when doing math in your head. I was taught techniques like this in school when we learnt addition and subtraction etc.

Daystrom Institute@startrek.website•s3e1 DS9, The Jem'Hadar. Why in the name of Christ on cracker do Jake and Nog disable autopilot in order to fly a Runabout they dont know how to pilot?English
6·6 months agoI think the point of the Jake and Nog characters, at least at first, was to show the innocence of youth. Yeah sure they are smart and mostly try to do the right thing, but they are also dumb kids. They do the dumbest shit which they even acknowledge themselves is pretty dumb. It’s typical teenage behavior, acting first and then thinking about it.
