       @Chocobozzz @daniel @smallcircles Thanks for chiming in. Perhaps we need something like https://caniuse.com or similar to track what apps are implementing what FEPs

       @simon Counterargument: https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2024/01/02/the-i-in-llm-stands-for-intelligence/ "AI" as a term, like many other things, was a male ego thing. McCarthy: "I wished to avoid having either to accept Norbert (not Robert) Wiener as a guru or having to argue with him." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_artificial_intelligence "AI" is the biggest terminology stretch in the history of computing, and using it is "OK" only because everybody else is doing it, but that's a weak excuse.

       Current status:I have a bunch of files in an old FTP server that I cannot download with FileZilla... because> FileZilla will not break FTP specifications by supporting non-standard encodings in order to accommodate the user. https://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Character_EncodingHowever, cURL is perfectly capable of downloading them.#FileZilla #FTP #ThisIsWhyWeCantHaveNiceThings

       > if you use non-English characters without using RFC 2640 compatible software, there will be problems--problems which are entirely self-made by not obeying the specifications.Dear FileZilla, I am very sorry to inform you that this is far from a self-made problem. I didn't choose the FTP server and I didn't give names to these images, but I have work to do.Glad to have found software that actually cares about users and real-world problems.

       I'm learning #mlflow for real for the first time and boy, I wish I was recording my reactions. Nothing makes sense!Why am I getting this WARNING? Why are there little green and gray circles without tooltips? Why was this apparently successful run marked as "Failed"?This is not a critique just on MLFlow. Software in general is often inscrutable and makes you feel stupid. After a while we get used to it and then write tutorials like "foo is easy, you just simply..."

       We are hitting some small UX issues with #Takahe still and we are considering alternative microblogging servers...What I like about Takahe:- Python- Display domains can be different than service domains https://docs.jointakahe.org/en/latest/domains/- No client built-in (we are using #Phanpy anyway)What alternatives do you recommend? Or should we just bite the bullet and run Mastodon? I fear self-hosting without knowing Ruby or Sidekiq might be challenging.Please boost for reach 🙏🏼#fedidev #fediadmin

       @glyph @simon @baldur @mms "Wildly overblown" is overly kind to LLMs here. Several energy operators have already said that the current uptake in data centers and energy consumption is delaying their plans to go carbon neutral or directly that the grid cannot hold it."Not as bad as crypto" doesn't mean anything.

       @glyph @simon @baldur @mms @Mer__edith What evidence would you need to be convinced? Honest question to weigh to what extent am I willing to drop everything else I'm doing and start shooting links, meticulously address your retorts, and spend an unbound amount of time arguing with strangers online, which is known to be among the most unproductive activities ever invented by humankind

       @glyph @simon @baldur @mms Summary: more gas, private corporations going nuclear (what can possibly go wrong?), energy grids not keeping up. And these were just things that were off the top of my head.I have more links in my "Tech won't save us" and "Ecoanxiety" Obsidian notes but honestly I'm not bothering keeping up anymore.The last thing we need now is influential tech people saying that critics are overblowing tech energy consumption.

       @glyph @simon @baldur @mms @Mer__edith 40% of Nvidia's data center revenue is now from AI inference, from the $NVDA earnings call https://seekingalpha.com/article/4672199-nvidia-corporation-nvda-q4-2024-earnings-call-transcriptIt doesn't get more discontinuous than this.

       @doctormo So it's not actually a "No.", but a "Yes, and" 🫠You're giving a root cause analysis of where the UX issue derives from, which is appreciated. But the UX issue exists.

       @BrodieOnLinux It's tough, because when Linus scolds someone in public, the perception isn't "this is what happens if you try to bullshit Linus". The perception is "this can happen to *me* in the future if I keep growing in this project and I'm terrified".I get where you come from but I think we are yet to find a better way.
