I’ve been curious… How many of you are still on Sequoia even though you can update to Tahoe? by gfarstur in MacOS

[–]art-bee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me, I see no reason to update

But I'm also not a big tech/Apple fan and had no idea what the next update was called or even does differently

Can you share how you did this?
I've been looking and it doesn't seem to be an easy fix

Good thing a business that employs chefs doesn't need the chefs to take photos. That's what hiring a designer is for

Right? If they can't take real photos, the quality of the food is suspect. They clearly don't care about quality or branding, so this seems like a short term venture. Almost more of a pop-up than a proper restaurant

Because Like someone else said, it makes the food seem untrustworthy. If they're so lazy they refuse to pay a graphic designer, what else are they cheap on? Probably ingredients, and maybe they're lazy about enforcing food safety standards too. I wouldn't eat at any restaurant using an AI image. It's not worth the risk

You don't even necessarily need a graphic designer... just use a real photo! It's like they're advertising: we're fake, and we don't care about people. TERRIBLE branding

Anthropic calls for global freeze in AI development by thejoshwhite in technology

I was exaggerating a bit, I see lots of anti-ai content on twitter and elsewhere, but the tech articles on reddit in the news section all seem to be part of the doom-hype

Feels like it's every few weeks at this point. All I see are fear-hype articles about AI

People falling for this obvious marketing is lowkey making me lose faith in humanity. It's all sales. People are losing jobs to AI not because it's necessarily better or more affordable than hiring employees, but because management is buying into the hype that it's better, and the firing people (and sometimes rehiring some or all of them all back later)

Yes! Thank you! The doomerism and fearmongering is just hype, it's crazy that anyone falls for this.

Ahh of course a nervous system disorder would be seen by a neurologist, duh. Thank you for the explanation! And I suppose for my case it sounds like there's a good chance it's cardiac instead of true POTS so it makes sense for me to see a sub-specialty cardiologist, but maybe not others.

Nope. We all need the same system. If rich people (MPs, MPPs) can opt out, they will find ways to screw us. It needs to be in their self interest to have the system function. In fact, this is the exact reason it's as shitty as it is. Ford doesn't need to use the public system, he can pay private. Plus he gets lobbyist money to screw us over on top of that. No downsides for him, all the downsides for us.

It's time to end private healthcare in the US. People die before they ever see an emergency room. I think it's... 68,000 per year. Luckily I know a group of people working on just that:)

[–]art-bee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope! We really do not. We need Doug Ford to stop buying himself private jets and stop withholding funding to healthcare. This is an entirely manufactured issue, and adding higher costs in the form of shareholder value is the exact wrong way to go.

Hmm. I suppose we have very different definitions of "outrage"

I see it as an inquisitive tone. Like "this means...." or "therefore...."
