European here. Is this actually true that waffle houses can get violent? If so, is there any explanation? I like waffles and never associated them with violence. Never been to a waffle house, though.

Funny video (at least for me) that explains why it is not so simply to react to bear attacks: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Se44YdrjZzU

Touché (I'm German, btw)

My understanding of the whole "being beneficial for humanity" is that:

1. It's kind of a meme that you need to have as a silicon valley start-up. Like Google's niw dropped "don't be evil".
2. If the founders and the investors, the share holder, get rich or richer, then this is already beneficial to humanity. In a net positive way similar to trickle-down-economics. At least thatvis what I think their line of thinking is.

Having said that, I think LLMs or Machine Learning can be used for useful things but I also think - as stated - the message " being beneficial for humanity" is hollow in a broader sense.

I find Zig a language wuth very good WASM support out of the box and it is mostly imperative in nature.

It is currently pre 1.0 and has some rough edges.

And I was always taught that capitalism allocates the resources ideally. /s

I wonder if I'll see it say "from lemmy" someday?

That's the spirit!

Aw man, now I want this toaster.

This is an old paper that it explains the basics: https://www.eecs.umich.edu/courses/eecs588/static/stack_smashing.pdf

Today there are a lot of mitigations where the steps of the paper don't work anymore, but the general ideas should be still valid. I'll hope you find the example you are looking for in there.

On another note: What is your intention? And can I participate 😈

The crowdstrike f*-up is so bad it travels back in time. That's my best guess

First of all it concentrates power and wealth on the owners of the models (Microsoft, OpenAI) or the ones that provide the tools (Nvidia).

Yes, there is truth in it, that people who couldn't afford to pay someone to create art, or get consulting, can get this now to a certain extend (if they can afford internet access and pay the AI services they need). But this comes also at the price of lowering the income of the people who provided these services. They now need to compete in the business creation market and not in the market that they trained for. Not everyone can create and maintain a business with or without starting money, just from a skill point of view. Nor does everybody want to.
