So… did they find anything where our current quantum computing is actually faster? Last time I read about this, it boiled down to: If you spend as much time on optimizing the regular calculation, then that is as fast/faster. So no actual, fundamental, benefit to our current state of quantum computing.

5 years only…? Sorry what? You consider a 5 year old chair to be so terribly old?

Yes, completely relatable.

If you use a sewing machine to fix your clothes, did you even do anything? That is the level of argument we are at here. Absolutely ridiculous. It saved me so much time already. Sure I can also digest a datasheet, put all the registers down, glue logic, bla bla bla, but instead of wasting 10 hours I am already done with everything an hour later.

No question, but ethics are a different topic where we seem to agree.

In any case, I find it appalling how much people argue against what they think who I am or more generally that they argue about me at all instead of the topic. Simply because I am not “on their side”. You too do this kind of gatekeeping around “we did the hard work” and “those thanking AI are only noobs”, in both cases I am implicitly excluded/meant the way you phrase it. Mind you, both are very much incorrect. I learned to code MCUs 10+ years ago with Arduino and built a potent simulation tool for the chemical industry just prior to the launch of GPT3. I am also absolutely not a professional software engineer. But why do I need to say that? It should be completely irrelevant to the discussion. Instead, people want to show/see authority as if it meant anything.

How blinded by your hate/rage are you that you blindly(!) dismiss the things I do (a random person you do not know) with the help of that tool? Disgusting MAGA level of “argument”.

Without chatGPT I could not have repaired things where I simply threw the datasheet at it and got code to reprogram it, like for an BMS. I could not digitize data streams by sniffing I2C. I could not use computer vision to decode a display. I could not make control and data logging interfaces for machines, turning decade old shit into good-as-new just based on their serial interface. Etc. Etc.

What kind of nonsense comparison is that? Somewhat off topic, borderline straw man.

People still have their job, better tools enable people to do more things in their free time. Some even switch professions later on, once they have enough experience. Lowering the bar (invest, skill, …) is simply a good thing.

Everyone could always learn woodworking, weaving, sewing, smithing, … that is not an argument. The point is that better tools make it easier to learn/perform/perfect these skills. Today anyone with a little torch and a hammer can play around with steel. 300 years ago you had to at least take on an apprenticeship to ever get to do that. Sewing with a sewing machine is so much faster, there is not much time to invest before you can make your own clothes.

Not everyone has 100s of hours free time to sink into this and that skill “the purist way”. Any tool that makes the learning curve more shallow and/or the process itself easier/cheaper/… helps democratizing these things.

You argue as if everyone needs to be a super duper software architect, while most people just want to create some tool or game or whatever they think of, just for themselves.

Google it for the specific device you have, especially how to open it.

Resetting the BIOS involves removing the internal CR2032 battery. Not a charged (main) battery.

Ah yes, the classical kindergarten argument. Will played, I am defeated. And Hamas is great because there are other evils too, makes sense.

You should see them when they drag murdered people around and cheer for their death. Or just watch them stream it if you don’t want to actually be there and get killed too unless you happen to have the right skin color/language/religion.

This is Lemmy, bitching about AI is the norm.

Yes, that sounds reasonable.

The middle mouse is important for browsing. I understand and see how that can cause issues. This is not about Windows, it is about the browser and this specific feature.

Which then again makes it totally redundant… Just do not use it for something like this.

Hahaha nice

What an amazing sign!

You have to shit from coffee?
