Considering the rest of the post I would guess that HR sees it as a signal that the place allows their employees to leave their desk and not pretend to work for 15 minutes (morally repugnant to an American Protestant)
Agree, but I’ll say of those gimmicks on site subsidized food places and gyms are genuinely nice. Like I don’t want to play ping pong at work, but if you’re saving me a few gym and food trips a week I’m down.
And some of us even didn’t like it, because those places could often blur the lines between a place of business and a place for socializing
To be clear, this was always the goal. If an employer could have you work 80 hours a week and sleep under your desk, they would. The goal is to give employees things to do around the office, so they don’t feel the need to actually leave work. Because if you’re playing ping pong in the break room, you’re immediately available for your manager to go “hey, we have a project for you.” Even if you’re not clocked in while playing ping pong, you’re essentially on call.
Those were gimmicks from that boom time, when wages were generally high and sooner folks switched jobs within weeks. Perks mattered in that period. Then wages dropped but the mindset that these perks mattered remained.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) had to use less precise methods to estimate price changes for the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in April due to staffing shortages.

China is rapidly gaining an edge over the U.S. in biotechnology, particularly in drug and agricultural development. The Harvard Belfer Center identified biotech as the sector where China has the most opportunity to overtake the U.S.
U.S. biotech hubs like Cambridge and Boston are experiencing layoffs and empty labs. China's biotech industry strengths include its dominance in pharmaceutical production and manufacturing, more human talent.
For all the attention on U.S.-China AI competition, new studies point to China's rapid rise in biotechnology, especially for drug and agricultural development.

the meniscus i had trimmed about a decade ago turned out decent but the one i didn't get done has some pain. probably it's torn and needs to be trimmed
All that would happen would your entire meniscus getting cut up then, as why would a LLM know how to do surgery, considering it doesn't even have intelligence?
Surgery is known for sometimes making a problem worse even if a competent surgeon does it - thus surgery should be a last resort.
AI is already expert level at reading x-rays, such as identifying pneumonia in lungs. trust me lad AI will be doing surgery within a decade, and with a much lower rate of screw ups than human doctors
Unfortunately the output of neural networks is proprietary, as that's clearly lacks source code and is an act of reverse engineering to understand it.
Neural networks are nowhere near experts at reading x-rays - they just are extremely fast at comparing every single x-ray on record that contained pneumonia with the current image and notifying the expert if pneumonia is suspected, working around some human error where a condition is simply missed.
Such scheme actually needs a expert to check and determine if there's a false positive or not.
I don't see how you could go from a neural net that is good at giving suggestions as to what condition a scan contains, with some false positives and some false negatives, to the much harder task of actually performing a surgery and not screwing it up within a decade.
@Suiseiseki same way you can go from full self driving cars constantly crashing and being dangerous to being road legal now in some st ates (although personally i think this is still premature)
>Take a look at how the exponential things are going with LLMs. >They're throwing exponentially more computing resources at it, but it just doesn't get any better. It's quite clear that such technology is going to progress over many years, but not exponentially.
@rw @jazzilla Who said anything about atheism? I'm not an atheist. I just don't need an outside source for morality.
I don't know who you should look to. Maybe just one source? Any at all? The point made in the clip is there are multiple sources of people who existed throughout history, just no other sources for people in the bible.
I'm not the expert but every bible scholar will tell you there are things in the bible that are simply not true. That's my point. You're dealing in half truths.
@jazzilla you missed my point. The biblical explanation is miraculous and not explained by atheist science.
But to your point, which writers should we look to that were in the area Abraham lived, wrote about the relevant topic, and their works were preserved for 4000+ years?
There is plenty of evidence for the biblical account, but you require writings about specific characters, or else they never existed. An argument from silence.
Have you ever noticed that our perceptions of “ancient” history is nearly 100% created by the Judeo-Christian Bible, so much so that it feels as if history did not happen unless it was in the Bible…
@rw @jazzilla He's not talking about cities. He's talking about people. He's saying the only evidence of the people written about in the bible...are in the bible and no other texts from that period.
Sure there is evidence of places written about in the bible...it's called telling a half truth and it's designed to manipulate and deceive people. Try again.
those who won't seek the truth will be given over to strong delusions.

@jazzilla I sent you a link to an article that tells you about multiple historical writings which confirm many persons described in biblical accounts. The closer you get to current times, the more accounts have survived. New Testament accounts have loads of corroborating evidence, and of course those texts reference the older texts as well.
"Every bible scholar will tell you things in the bible are not true" Except for the thousands of scholars who teach it is inerrant.

Pewds has been dabbling more in Linux and engineering content lately, and considering he's essentially retired and doesn’t rely on YouTube ad revenue anymore, wouldn’t it be amazing if he also started posting his videos on PeerTube in parallel?
He can definitely afford to support decentralized platforms and wouldn’t be held back by monetization concerns. With his reach, even just mirroring his content to PeerTube could bring massive attention to the Fediverse. Do you think he'd ever consider it?
Nah doesn't really scream Nazi to me. PewDiePie being an edgelord is such a non factor. I've never been a fan but I've done the song and dance about this stuff, those aren't his views.
"Kjellberg tacitly compares himself to Hitler, gives a Nazi salute, and shows a series of clips of Nazi imagery, including a crowd of Nazis saluting, Nazi soldiers marching, and footage of Hitler Youth."
Yeah, if you don't see "nazi" after that, that's on you I think.
He made fun of a deaf girl's nails and said he's not listening to her video. I dunno poor taste but if you're pissing your pants and trying to castrate this dude, you've got issues.
He paid some Indian guys in fiver to hold up a sign that said something like "death to Jews" or something like that. He didn't think they would actually do it and he of course he laughed when they sent back the video of them dancing and holding up the sign.
When he got backlash for the "joke" by mainstream media he felt they were purposely twisting things around in a certain way to make him look worse and he was going to prove it. He then wore a British WW2 military officers uniform for a video where he claimed they would purposely cut the video to misrepresent things and that's exactly what happened. They claimed he doubled down and wore a Nazi uniform because he was a Nazi.
Not long after that whole debacle he then had the infamous "bridge incident" where he called some random gamer the n word while he was live on twitch playing PUBG. He made an apology video after that where he said: “It was something I said in the heat of the moment. I said the worst word I could possibly think of, and it just sort of slipped out. I’m not going to make any excuses as to why it did, because there are no excuses for it.”
Absolutely worth being criticized for the things he did in his past, but I don't think it's fair to cancel the guy forever because of those things. Especially when it appears that he has grown up quite significantly since those days.
The biggest YouTuber in the world has been accused of being a closet white nationalist and even inspiring mass shootings. He says it’s all a misunderstanding.
I'm older than PewDiePie. I have two little brothers that grew up watching him religiously so I ended up seeing a lot of his content and being looped in on his controversies.
What mentally insane people believe is completely irrelevant. Plenty of insane people have taken words of peace and love and somehow found ways to twist them into calls of violence.
Using mentally deranged peoples actions to blame a public figure is actually insane. Not once did PewDiePie ever make any calls to action and in fact he publicly denounced those people and what they did.
Yeah it IS you people that need help. Because I'm not defending a Nazi. I am defending a person that made edgy Nazi jokes in their youth because I have enough brain power and human experience to know that not every single edgy teenager and young adult goes on to actually support extremist crap. It's almost like humans spend their youth learning what's ok in society. What's not ok. Where they land on issues. Where other people land on issues.
What's more important to me and most other humans is what kind of person someone is today. What kind of person they have been like in the last few years of their lives.
Every single human makes mistakes. How they learn from those mistakes is generally more important than the mistakes themselves (obviously not always the case).
He paid some Indian guys in fiver to hold up a sign that said something like “death to Jews” or something like that. He didn’t think they would actually do it
Doesn't matter if he thought they would do it. Just coming up with the idea is enough to make it clear that he's a tasteless piece of garbage, and that NOBODY should be parading him around as someone to emulate.
People make mistakes. Some people learn from their mistakes. Some people learn from other's mistakes. Some mistakes are so egregious, reflecting such abysmally poor judgement, that they should never be lived down, even if for no other reason than to serve as a warning, so that others may learn.
That dip shit has made a lot of those mistakes. He shouldn't be in the public eye anymore. He should be a productive member of society working as an assistant to the junior manager at an obscure toilet paper company.
and he of course he laughed when they sent back the video of them dancing and holding up the sign.
You left out the part where he then published it for all of his followers.
In between having the idea that no respectable human being should ever have, to the point that he clicked "Publish" to send the video out to everyone, he had soooooo many opportunities for self reflection and a realization that that was a really fucking bad idea. Yet, he did it anyway.
I'm not gonna bother arguing with you. We clearly have a fundamental difference of opinion when it comes to our ability to forgive past transgressions of others when we see personal growth and change from them.
I hope not. I hope that lemmy doesn’t grow any heavier than it is growing right now. The content is good, it’s enough, most threads have good comments. I don’t want this to become another Reddit. Lemmy is really good as is.
This 100%, honestly what lemmy/mbin needs is a clean up of dead communities. That were created and abandoned during the reddit api exodus. As well as the active communities that are just a bot posting content from reddit and nothing else.
I think the software should start hiding/marking them in some way
I don't expect they will all be deleted, and I don't even think it would be good to delete them because there could be a chance they start getting activity
True i like your idea of marking them. Just when people join a community i hate that they have wade through a mess of discarded clutter. To find the good places.
Fuck this guy. When I was growing up a group of skin heads infiltrated our local punk scene, even though they liked the same bands as the rest of us, we fucking ran them out of every show. Felix deserves zero praise for his recent moves.
