The overwhelming feeling of disappointment and melancholy as you realise you have a finite amount of time left on this earth because people can’t be arsed to take responsibility for keeping alive the planet they live on.

Omg I miss making forum signatures!!! My fav part about it honestly

Yeah but then we can’t sell you ppu licenses.

Deleting my cringe comments from 2012 was really cathartic, thanks 😂

Hehe we do a little scraping

What’s mull?

There was a premium lite for 7 bucks but they discontinued it in October as part of their ‘fuck all yall’ campaign

Good recommendations! I’d suggest doing some spacy tutorials as well, regarding the topics in the first paragraph. But arguably it’s possible nowadays to just start at transformers without any NLP knowledge, e.g. using huggingface’s AutoTrain or something similar. I wouldn’t recommend it, but you definitely could.

Alright I see, thanks a lot for explaining

Ok yeah make sense! I’m definitely not a fan of Facebook’s and Meta’s data policies either.

But how is anyone going to control a decentralised platform tho? What you’re describing seems like it would only apply to users on instances controlled by Meta, i.e. on threads itself. Or maybe I still don’t understand how the fediverse works.

Can you explain how it’s 100% super obvious? I thought a popular platform with many users entering the fediverse might be good for exposure but it seems like the consensus here is that it’s actually bad. Help me understand how it’s bad?

I’ve read good things about donut, although I haven’t used it yet myself.

If I’m understanding you correctly, you might want to take a look at some NERT models for topic extraction on huggingface. I’m not certain there are already ones for resume building, but I’m sure they exist. An alternative is spaCy, as you mentioned, but there you also rely on a pretrained model.

I was happily using Lite as well and them just announcing it’s discontinuing in a month feels really unfair. I don’t want the added functionality of youtube premium. I don’t want to pay €15 a month for the same thing I had before for half the money. Now I have to find an alternative, and I think for me it will also be ad blockers and piracy. I’ll miss casting youtube to my TV ad free though…

That’s a great tip thank you!

I’m looking to buy a new TV soon ish and I’m really afraid of ending up with something with a ton of pre installed bloatware, simply because that’s the industry standard nowadays. If anyone has any tips for “dumb” TVs in the ~€600/$650 price range I’d love to hear them. I have a chromecast for streaming and it works fine, so I’m really just looking to buy a large screen without bloatware, no Internet connection required, etc. That’s what my current ~10 year old TV does and tbh I just want the same thing but better picture quality.

Good article :) it makes me happy to see this being explained in such a basic way because I sure as hell can’t manage.

Actually one of the conclusions from both the Science and Nature articles were that they mostly fuel far right radicalisation, not so much polarisation (which implies both ends of the political spectrum). Which I guess means leftists are generally either more capable of spotting misinformation or less inclined to act on it.
