How to deal with LLMs/ AI?
LLMs can be very useful for my personal life. How can I deal with this in the future?
- the quality highly depends on model, size, internet access, etc.
- They get seemingly more accurate over time
Personally, I can find information within a second. I can ask it which philosopher wrote about "free will" and it'll provide me a good chunk of information that sounds very plausible. Gemini is very impressive from a layman's perspective. llama is worse in this regard but still ok. It may only be good on the surface but I can ask it for the book as well and it'll provide me information. It will get better over time.
Google already knows a lot of stuff and now it will collect even more information about people. I caught myself asking it a philosophical thought of myself.
I was asking the computer. I was not judging an output of it. I was asking to judge my output.
I was asking the computer a philosophical question that has no clear answer. I evaluated the computer's output and was happy it told me that I was right.
I also do maths with a computer. I trust it, it is usually deterministic.
I've also asked it about medical advice, which sounded good.
Today, I wanted to ask it something else, and I was observing that I ask a computer a question. I'd need many minutes, many difficult minutes to think about it. I'd need to research more information, talk to people. But I chose to prompt it.
I realised that I would need to think about this and prompt a community to think about it to exchange information by (hopefully) humans.
Using llms, especially online llms, e.g. google, yield higher quality output than local llms in my experience, hence I'd like to use online llms. But I do not want to give every question I have to google. I do not want all of us giving everything to google. Am I overreacting? Fear of new technology?
It can save me a lot of time. "I could achieve more" by using it. could I really? wouldn't the ai achieve it for me? do i want the achievement anyway? Do I want to get a headstart with ai? I write code for a living. is there a huge difference in writing deterministic code and the probabilistic llm output?
Fear of missing out is kicking in.
I do not want to get left behind but I also do not want to give up my free will.
I do not want to lose my privacy (to google).
I do not want to lose my philosophical maturity, or at least what's left of it.
Fear of missing out is kicking in.
how do I know that you guys are real and not bots?
How do we know that the people on reddit aren't talking to bots? Now, or in the future? what about lemmy?
Even If I am on a human instance that checks every account on PII, what about those other instances? How do I know as a server admin that I can trust another instance?
I don't talk about spam bots. Bots that resemble humans. Bots that use statistical information of real human beings on when and how often to post and comment (that is public knowledge on lemmy).
how to run caddy with selinux of fedora
how can you run caddy with a Caddyfile with systemd with enabled selinux on fedora?
I can manually start caddy with caddy start or
/usr/bin/caddy run --environ --config /etc/caddy/Caddyfile which is also in /usr/lib/systemd/system/caddy.service.
Caddy works just fine but I can't start it with systemd without disabling selinux with sudo setenforce 0.
edit:
I found a tutorial on how to start caddy on centos that disables selinux, starts caddy with systemctl and then enabales selinux again. That does not sound right to me.
How can I find art about XY?
Let's say I'd like to see or read about art that has the topic "time" or "joy". Where can I look it up. How do you find or research art?

TIL you can send commands to terminal (in vscodium)
I've been using the terminal for 5 years.
99% of attempts at keeping valuable code snippets failed. Or having a useful command history.
Finally, I looked up how to send a line to terminal.
I use vscode since Atom was discontinued (looking forward to zed). But in the meanwhile, I just added
{
"key": "ctrl+enter",
"command": "workbench.action.terminal.runSelectedText",
"when": "terminalProcessSupported && editorTextFocus && editorLangId =~ /shell|bash|zsh|fish/"
}
Maybe it helps someone :)
With this, I can finally keep a history of all useful commands I run. Like I can have a systemd shell file where I store the commands that I ran. Or a file to store all my podman commands. Now I do not have to type them anymore, I can just run them.

Wie belastend ist es für die Welt, wenn wir ständig Kaffee in uns schütten?
Vor ein paar Tagen gab es hier einen Post in dem Tchibo für höhere Preise warb und es begründete warum Kaffee bei uns teurer wird. Hier ein Zitat aus der Zeit
Laut der Brühl-Stiftung verbleiben etwa 86 Prozent des Geldes, das wir für unseren Kaffee bezahlen, im eigenen Land. Nur die restlichen 14 gehen in die Erzeugerländer und verteilen sich nochmal auf viele verschiedene Akteure. Von einem Kaffee, der im Supermarkt zum Beispiel 5,49 Euro pro 500 Gramm kostet, verdienen die Pflückerinnen etwa 0,28 Euro, die Plantagenbesitzerinnen circa 0,46 Euro.

I've got a mini pc which is running always and another one which consumes a lot more power for e.g. jellyfin.
Can I configure it such that the jellyfin server only boots if I connect to it? E.g. I try to connect to jellyfin.y.com and then the server boots because the mini pc tries to connect to it.
I already figured out how to let it sleep automatically as soon as nobody is watching.
Edit: can I add the magic package to the reverse proxy?
Alps VS Camino del Norte
Hey guys,
I need some advice. I'd like to hike for a month this summer. I'm just an average person.
Walking the Camino is easy, no risk, no planning, no experience needed. You just walk as much as you want each day.
In the alps I have to carefully plan each day because of my limited experience, hiking alone, weather, body limits and time restrictions.
Enjoying the alps is much more rewarding I guess but I don't think that I am physically able to hike one month in the alps. 1 or even 2 rest days per week and not too challenging routes.
Can someone recommend one over the other?
