I use it for explaining stuff when studying for uni and I do it like this: If I don’t understand e.g. a definition, I ask an LLM to explain it, read the original definition again and see if it makes sense.

This is an informal approach, but if the definition is sufficiently complex, false answers are unlikely to lead to an understanding. Not impossible ofc, so always be wary.

For context: I’m studying computer science, so lots of math and theoretical computer science.

I only know that I was pleasantly surprised how well GNOME ran on a surface device of a friend.

Explain please. What’s the true meaning and what’s the intended one?

Why downvote him? He made an observation and comments even explained why. I learned something, it added to the discussion.

Speaks to the fact that we apparently need better and new alternatives or make current tools easier to use.

Certain aspects of discord seem to resonate with people (unfortunately…).

Man pages are great as mentioned, but maybe not as accessible to some people. Are there tools to generate more convenient resources (e.g. wikis) from that? Similar to how generating technical documentations from (structured) code comments.

Do you know why?

Just use a VPN bro and you’re fine /s

Hello, as I said, it’s about “security by design”, which means to design a system that ‘doesn’t allow for insecure things’ in the first place. Like a microwave oven doesn’t operate when the door is open. IT-/cyber-security is a complex field, but 2FA is a good place to start, regarding user facing services. There are lots more things than that of course.

That’s exactly right. I was about to say how people usually don’t even “not take it seriously” but rather don’t even think or know about it. But you already said that yourself haha :D

The lions share IMHO is at 23&me. Offering such a poorly secured service is negligence, in the face of the data’s high sensitivity nature.

This shouldn’t be “offered” IMHO, this should be mandatory. Yes, people are very ignorant about cyber security (I’ve studied in this field, trust me, I know). But the answer isn’t to put the responsibility on the user! It is to design products and services which are secure by design.

If someone is actually able to crack accounts via brute-forcing common passwords, you did not design a secure service/product.

[Edit: spelling]

I would say it’s partially their fault. IMHO 23&me is mainly to blame. They should’ve enforced (proper) 2FA. Sure, people should’ve known better, but they didn’t; they oftenly don’t. But 23&me did know better.

Isn’t screen sharing working since some time? Works even on WebEx from Firefox, can pick any window to share. Granted a few years back it didn’t work, but now it does. Maybe it’s a zoom bug… 🤔

Nailed it. No one can argue with that 🧠

Essentially because after they did something bad it’s likely too late. But others can explain this in more detail with more knowledge than I have.

This is a great example to explain it to people who are familiar with the topic. But if I tell that to a “random” friend, word for word, they won’t know what I’m talking about :D

Someone should make a post about why blocking Threads is good and why it’s not to be confused with gate keeping. If not properly communicated, this could look very badly for the uninitiated and they’re not to blame.

Some people of course have an educated opinion against blocking, but many presumably don’t know the reasons behind it.

After a few times I memorized where the bread or fruit (w/o barcode) I usually buy is in the menu and am almost equally fast as an employee would be. So it just took me some time to adjust personally.
