UH... humanity *is* about marginalizing other groups. The entire history of humanity revolves around doing just this.
Uh no, that's civilization. Humanity is about caring for the 10 members of your tribe, who also happens to be close family members.
That's how it was for the large majority of time for the human kind; having enough people to be able to marginalize some of them only came about after the invention of agriculture, where groups settled and started to grow large and have different income levels.
Darwin awards are won by removing yourself from the gene pool. These traitors to their own species may end doing that not by killing themselves, but by wiping out the entirety of the human kind.
Eventually, I'll have my AI read the summary for me.
Yup, that's basically what the 'next step' means. "The goal is to eventually expand beyond summaries to agent-like tasks". The agent will read the summary an make actions on your behalf.
The end game is not needing to have you around at all.
Overall, a better approach than the doctor saying "Fentanyl isn't really that bad. You can keep shooting up as long as you have Narcan."
To make the metaphor accurate, instead of Narcan the doctor would be recommending a new novelty drug whose results are untested in the human body, and for which no antidote is known.
You can turn on a setting in about:config that will add an option to connect to a locally hosted LLM model, typically running in your GPU with something like Ollama, LM Studio or Anything LLM.
I would like that such option was displayed as prominent as those connecting to commercial services, but at least it's there for those in the know.
Wouldn't it be nice if companies treated people well and we didn't need unions?
Companies treated workers well, and Western governments provided a welfare state, because of the menace of the Soviet Union looking as a more attractive option to workers.
Once the Soviet Union imploded ending the Cold War, there were no menace anymore and the ruling class returned to their previous mode of operation, dialling the clock back to the XIX century with it's Dickensian Laissez-faire.
It's only logical that when we go back to the conditions that motivated Socialism, workers bring back the same old techniques of class warfare. Welcome to the New World Order, same as the Old.
It doesn't matter where the wealth comes from; in other countries it comes from the entrepreneurship and hard labor from its workers.
The trick is then to distribute the products of that wealth among all the people, instead of concentrating more than half of it on the hands of a very small privileged class that then gets to decide how it's spent.
This is an interesting perspective. Maybe the "problem" with Norway is more a problem with how the rest of us pick and choose which metrics represent our values. Productivity, work hours, student test scores. Why are these the goals? Why not happiness or contentment, however that might be measured? Or physical or mental health? Crime? It seems to me that productivity, work hours, and test scores are merely means to the real ends of happiness and well-being.
Be careful, you may be up to discover the European way of thinking where "productivity" and "net worth" and "concentrating all the political power in a few lobbies that control the government"* are not synonyms with economic health but rather "safety net" and "well-being" do.
*We tried the last one in the times of the Roman Empire and decided that it's not a good model to live with.
can we name it 'Actual Pluto'?
I suspect most here on slashdot would have sided with those "experts" had they lived at the time
And they'd do well, because the Ptolemaic guys were better than anyone else in predicting the movements of planets.
And by keeping with the good work, their successors were able to keep compiling and refining good observations, and ultimately be able to overcome the previous model that have served them well.
The point is not to have "The Absolute Truth" at any one particular point (only religious nutjobs do that), the point is to have a reasonable corpus of observations that get cross-checked with reality so that you do not get blinded by dogma.
Not to mention the fanaticism effect of being born and raised all your life with a "purpose larger than you".
There would be a few sceptics that curse their ancestors for condemning them to a life enclosed in a tin can, but my guess is for most of them to live like a small community of religious pilgrim settlers.
Is 2025 the Year of Linux on the Desktop then?
More likely 2026, when Valve releases Steam OS for desktop PCs.
I've got news: atoms are not 2 dimensional. I can't help but think any publication that prints this stuff isn't worth the paper it's no longer printed on.
By that logic, a map cannot be 2D because it will always have the width of the material it's printed on. The mere concept of 2D would be meaningless for anything but abstract mathematical objects.
However that's not how we use words and meanings in language. If you build a computer on a layer of material where the width is not relevant - because by design it's impossible to build it any thinner, for all practical purposes it's correct to call it a 2D material, and it's pedantry to point out that any physical object necessarily has at least 3 spatial dimensions.
I can, can't you?
When you don't know what you are doing, do it neatly.
