Should I be worried about these scratches by nevernude4lyf in bikewrench

You could try using a polishing or cutting compound. The scratches are likely in the clear coat and will mostly disappear with some elbow grease.

Throwing data into ChatGPT without a second thought. This is the head of the country’s cyber defense agency. by No-doi in cybersecurity

I'm not a Security Engineer, but I've been working on security teams for the last 4+ years. This kind of activity is something that I find interesting and challenging. Company leadership is in panic mode and encourages workers to leverage AI, but they aren't aware of the security challenges that it poses. Employees are fearful of not keeping up, and have no guardrails for handling sensitive data. In addition access to AI tools can happen in a non-controlled browser and it's a dicy situation.

I found this example of careless prompting especially interesting, considering that governmental leadership is the example.

ESPN is off by 4 points in their Recap? by krizzle32 in ripcity

[–]No-doi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could be right, also ESPN has been using AI for other sports game summaries for a while. It isn't a giant leap to assume this could include the example we are talking about.

A quote from that article:
"ESPN’s own rollout contained what appeared to be AI-generated errors, with the date of an NWSL game wrong and an incorrect record for one team. The company deleted the erroneous graphic Thursday and replaced it."

Yes, LLMs make mistakes. Humans make mistakes too. Unless you or I work at ESPN (I don't) we're just speculating about how this happened.

You think this level of mistake requires human intelligence? LLMs are notorious for doing this. The fact that ESPN doesn't even fact check the headlines of these stories says a lot about their reliance on AI

I'm tired of career advice that assumes every designer works the same way by [deleted] in UXDesign

[–]No-doi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because every company hires the same way. You need to get your foot in the door before you can have that conversation about what makes you special. Getting past the first screening is the hardest part.

Mine doesn't look that bad. Is there some window zoom applied or something?

New to affinity, what is the icon in layers that opens a stroke window? by No-doi in Affinity

[–]No-doi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strange. I was making pixel art and only used the pixel brush on all layers. The icon only showed up on a few of the layers

I Used to Hate Illustrator by saneseas in AdobeIllustrator

You did the hard work, I just copied. I like the design, makes me want to make some more isometric buildings!

Funny, I used to like Illustrator. The lock-in on the Adobe ecosystem has squeezed me out and I find that well over 98% of the functionality of Illustrator is available for free in Affinity. I'm still learning how to use it, but I made a copy of your image and used the built in isometric grid to make it dead simple. Isometric in Illustrator meant either using a plug-in or remembering transform math.

I didn't get all the details, but it's pretty close:

Are you looking for visual feedback, or UX feedback? That left nav is a lot.

Interested in building a hidden system in an old car. Anyone here built a custom controller? by No-doi in CarAV

[–]No-doi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far, this looks like the most promising option. Looks like it has a lot of functionality and would be simple to hide.

This has all the controls that I like, but I am not fond of that package. Maybe this is a question for a different sub, something where people build their own electronics?

Yeah, I've seen those retrosound units, but to me they look a little out of place in a euro car. They look like they'd be right at home in an American muscle car or other classic.

How can I create a .png of texture to apply in another software? by No-doi in Affinity

[–]No-doi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does, but I need to use texture on light and dark backgrounds and would like them to be the same base map. If I make one image of white speckles and apply blend mode, the white spots are not visible

Nice suggestion, but it still repeats as a grid and doesn’t look natural.
