Magnet Rule
Nobody is asking the real question. Why is there a magnet in the cat's collar? Depending on how strong it is, it may even be dangerous.

This is the first time I hear "black barbershop". Is it what I think it is, why is such separation needed?

AI will replace programmers

That’s like saying a bus driver’s job is to turn a steering wheel.
That's a good analogy, I will use that.

I don't know. If the poster couldn't be bothered to fact-check, why would I? It is just safer to assume that it can be misinformation.

US rejects AI copyright for famous state fair-winning Midjourney art
Reply in thread
Using automation tools isn't something new in engineering. One can claim that as long as a person is involved and guiding/manipulating the tool, it can be copyrighted. I am sure laws will catch up as usage of AI becomes mainstream in the industry.

Turkey says Swedish journalist detained on terror charges and for ‘insulting the president’
Reply in thread
"Terrorism" has had a very loose definition in Turkey for years. Pretty much any anti-government activity or criticism can be labelled as such.

AI text detectors tend to flag text from non-native speakers as AI generated
Reply in thread
According to the article grammatical errors are not the reason. The reason is that AI uses simpler vocabulary to mimic a regular conversation of average people.

Near-Future file type concept "Digital Memory"
I don't think this will work well and others already explained why, but thanks for using this community to pitch your idea. We should have more of these discussions here rather than CEO news and tech gossip.

Sullair - Proof that if you treat workers well and remove middle management, productivity increases exponentially | 60 Minutes
"Exponentially" is not synonymous to "a lot". Exponent is a mathematical term and exponential growth requires at least two variables exponentially related to each other. For this to be possibly exponential growth a) progress should be quantifiable (removing management and treating workers well should be quantized somehow) b) performance should be quantifiable and measured at a bunch of progress points (if you have only two measurements it can as well be linear) c) performance should be or can be modeled as a an exponential function of progress in removing management and treating workers well.

Should I repost / cross publish on several communities and how ?
When there are multiple relevant communities, I post on the smaller community and crosspost that to the bigger one. I hope thay this would advertise the smaller community in the bigger one since I expect that some people in the bigger one may be interested in the smaller community but don't know about it.

This is a good one. We get standard phishing tests which make no sense. It is usually a person I don't know, from a company I haven't heard of asking me to edit/review a file they share. People who design these tests should know that people do NOT jump into the opportunity of editing/reviewing files or receiving tasks. I imagine real phishing attacks must be smarter than this.
