How is decentralized social media more private if all the data is public and shared?
The data you post isn’t more private like other commenters have mentioned.
On the other hand, lemmy and other open source social media platforms won’t collect behavioural data like other privately owned social networks.
Instagram for instance will track exactly how much time you spend looking at each post to determine your interests and predict which ads you are most likely to click on. Others than that they will also run experiments of changing some features and track your engagement with them.
So in essence, they collect more data on stuff that you don’t explicitly share.

‘Americans just work harder’ than Europeans, says CEO of Norway’s $1.6 trillion oil fund, because they have a higher ‘general level of ambition’
Unlike other posters, I think this is not wrong. You see a lot of "hustle culture" over there as well as the general belief that if they work hard they can get rich. Whether that's a good thing or not is another question.

How do short-term thinking business types infiltrate technology companies?
Reply in thread
To expand on that, even if you didn't want to take the VC funded money and bootstrap your own business, the deck is stacked against you. If you compete in the same space, a VC funded company can do more marketing, develop the product faster, have more connections to important business partners because of large amount of money and connections they have.
And they will "outcompete" you at a loss, until the bootstrapped business goes under or settles for a tiny market share in a niche. So when they say, the economy is rigged, this is what they mean. You will need large amounts of capital to compete in the tech space. Even if you are two times smarter and work two times harder, you will never be able to compete with a VC funded company flushed with money in the same space unless you get reaaaally lucky.

How Much Do LLMs Hallucinate in Document Q&A Scenarios? A 172-Billion-Token Study Across Temperatures, Context Lengths, and Hardware Platforms [TLDR: 25%]
Reply in thread
The task described in this article is asking questions about a document that was provided to the llm in the context.
I would hope that if you give a human a text and ask them to cite facts from it they would do better than 99% correct.
Also, when the tokens exceeded 200k, the llm error rate was higher than 10%

Unironically, in the EU with digital IDs it might actually be feasible to do a government ID login.
Sometimes I‘m thinking about hosting a lemmy instance that does that bit would not store your info just to fight the tide of astroturfing.

I was really impressed that I could do my Spanish taxes with my German ID. Other government services don’t support it yet though

To be fair, there might be an issue with the discoverability of these articles. Restructuring the documentation may lead to less of those issues. Though there is always someone who just opens a ticket before reading anything...

Valid point about privacy issues. But actually this topic is also interesting in an industrial context when you want to know how much your machines are using to optimise your factory. But yeah, it always depends on how you use it.

Black winged stilts
I don't think so. These birds were quite small. Around 15 cm beak to tail.

I was investigating if these algorithms could be used in an embedded environment. Basically I implemented a load monitor on a raspberry pi using a pretty basic machine learning algorithm and checked performance. Performance wise it worked out pretty well but the accuracy was pretty bad on real world data. Like 50%. Of you’re interested in how it works I can give some more info.
