$ORIGIN (or equivalently ${ORIGIN})
This expands to the directory containing the program or
shared object. Thus, an application located in somedir/app
could be compiled with
gcc -Wl,-rpath,'$ORIGIN/../lib'
so that it finds an associated shared object in somedir/lib
no matter where somedir is located in the directory
hierarchy. This facilitates the creation of "turn-key"
applications that do not need to be installed into special
directories, but can instead be unpacked into any directory
and still find their own shared objects.
I kinda agree with this, except the machine learning field should bear some responsibility for begetting LLMs. In particular, they got very used to the idea of scraping the internet for huge amounts of data needed for all types of models, and paid less and less attention to how much energy their training and inference was costing versus the value the models were providing. The seeds of the problems with LLMs existed before they landed on the scene.
If the Zig community carves out a territory of principled engineering like this, I may adopt it as my primary language and make a career out of it. Finally an island of sanity in a sea of slop.
I agreed with you until this point. What percentage of them "turn to crime"? Is that percentage higher than non-immigrants? My guess is that it's a negligible fraction.
This was one of the key points in the video. Their source is a TD Economics report, which in turn references a report from The Institute for Canadian Citizensihp:
The Institute for Canadian Citizenship’s Leaky Bucket 2025 report shows that onward migration is highest among immigrants with doctoral degrees, strong earnings potential, and experience in management, ICT, engineering, and science based occupations. Within five years of entering Canada, highly educated immigrants are more than twice as likely to leave as lower skilled immigrants.
Hi TootSweet. Hope your health has improved. Any chance you could still un-pin these old posts? As you said, I think it just needs a mod to take action, instead of waiting for consensus.
Genuinely considering a trip to Winnipeg to see the exhibit and support this museum. I hope other people do to and that it stays up for a long time. In fact, I'm going to donate to the museum right now.
From another article:
Charles Levkoe, a member of the Jewish Faculty Network, an advocacy group made up of Jewish academics and scholars, called the controversy surrounding the exhibition ironic, given that it hadn’t yet opened to the public ahead of the protest.
Levkoe said one of his fellow members was part of the consultations for the exhibition and provided regular updates to the group.
“As Jews, as members of the people that have experienced lots of discrimination and persecution over the centuries … I think as a group we collectively were very excited about it, because we know how important it is for people who’ve been marginalized to tell their stories and have their perspectives heard,” Levkoe said.
The story of the Nakba is not often told because of its controversy, but Levkoe did not expect the exhibition to be the subject of such backlash.
“It’s like this knee-jerk reaction to just try to shut this thing down without even saying, ‘Well, let’s give it a chance, let’s see it first,’” he said.
Thanks for sharing this!
IMO, we should make it clear that this is unacceptable in Canadian politics.

I think we have to do both. Bans/restrictions to prevent immediate harms (or at least attempt to), and regulation to prevent future harms.
I'm surprised they ran this, and left the YouTube comments open. I'll take what I can get.

I appreciate you saying that. It's all good.

Awesome, thanks very much. If you get in trouble, you can pin it on me :)

Thanks for letting us know, and for your steady maintenance. I'm really happy with how fast and stable lemmy.ca has been for many months.
Thanks for sharing this
Oof, they're going to be in a whole lot of pain after the burst. Hopefully they can reverse course mid-way.
