Everybody hating on Java being the de facto language every student learns first (at least back when I was in university) but I think it's actually a great first language while I don't think python is for one simple reason: it has types but tries to hide them from you. It is soooo important to understand types early though.

Why would one though? All the bots are on Twitter now because in order to fight Bots, Elon encouraged massive abuse of bots and ChatGPT with his new monetization scheme that earns you money the more impressions and engagement you get on your posts.

True. To me, Lemmy feels somewhat more like the old vBulletin forums I used to browse 15 years ago.

Warte, die Gurtpflicht ist in Teilen der Gesellschaft noch umstritten????

I think it all depends on how good our tools to detect AI generated content become. If it is not distinguishable, then the internet is probably about to be flooded by AI generated content which in turn means AI is going to be trained more and more with AI content, degrading the model in the process.

It's already too late. Google has a monopoly on the browser market. Do you think your regular normie would continue to use Firefox if Netflix, Instagram, TokTok etc. don't work anymore?

There is nothing we can do. The internet of old is already lost.

I was starting to think I was using LLMS wrong but you perfectly summarized my situation.

That's why I kinda don't like Python and JavaScript anymore. Every time I want types for a library it's gonna take me time to get it working. For every serious project I do, I use a strongly typed language.

Vorraussetzung ist, dass der Gesprächspartner Beweise anerkennt und das tun sie oft nicht.
