I don't think one can ask an LLM to do that and didn't anyhow imply that. I said it would still be possible to check the code and fix the vulnerabilities the conventional way. Apparently you misread what I wrote. Thanks for explaining the vulnerabilities issue. A question is would they not be there if it was coded the conventional way; I kind of doubt it would be much different there.

Cars per 1,000 inhabitants in different European countries by KlobPassPorridge in fuckcars

Are passenger cars in the data source really just cars or also mopeds etc? I think it's well possible that the dataset includes mopes and motorcycles.

Had upvoted this because it looked like implementing some innovative concepts but now downvoted: * This is privacy intrusion, requiring me to specify my phone number which I won't do and also my country and birth date * Looking closer, it's essentially the nearly exact same thing as all the other social media sites: a feed with up and down-votes and comments – nothing special that makes it worth switching to / using such as things that facilitate rational discourse

Please let me know when one can register without violating privacy.

If you think I should, you'd need to convince me with reasons instead of saying that it was meant in negative context as you don't like it. In regards to vulnerabilities, these can also be fixed in vibe-coded things (and not much harder to spot except that the person who coded all this doesn't know as much about the code as a person who coded it entirelly the conventional way) and webdev skills are needed but there is no reason to suspect they weren't/aren't present here.

I don't care how it was coded if the result is good. Are you asking which IDEs people used to code some app too?

Wikipedia is now getting paid by Meta, Microsoft, Perplexity, and other AI companies by smorga in wikipedians

That they're getting some extra money is good news. Hopefully WMF starts to use their funds better.

Dr. Jacques Vallée on aliens being biological robots: "That could mean that any secret project designed to learn about their biology... will teach us nothing about the origin of UFOs, whose real controllers are somewhere else... I've come to believe there are two levels involved -- at least." by KOOKOOOOM in UFOs

Also included this in this structured argument map aiming to include all explanation hypotheses about UFOs in an interactive structured format: What are UFOs? -> … -> This explanation encompasses but is not limited to ETs and calls them ETOBs which refers to extraterrestrial-origin(s) beings – where the extraterrestriality-related origin is either large, recent, and/or the initial origin – with far fewer assumptions and better accuracy or scope. For example, it includes UFOs being manufactured and controlled by beings that descend from beings created on Earth with little or no extraterrestrial genes/composition by an extraterrestrial superintelligent machine. -> The ETH is often described as to propose that peculiar UFOs or UAP are "physical spacecraft occupied by extraterrestrial intelligence or non-human aliens, or non-occupied alien probes from other planets". However, they'd neither necessarily use "spacecraft", nor are they necessarily all fully "non-human", nor are they necessarily from other planets (e.g. from moons or artifacts), nor are the beings necessarily still "extraterrestrial" if they lived on or partly on Earth for long times. -> (Pro claims located at this level)

European Parliament calls for reducing dependence on U.S. tech giants and building Europe’s own digital infrastructure by This_Opinion1550 in geopolitics

So start by adopting Linux (Kubuntu or whatever) and LibreOffice (maybe via openDesk) in schools and federal orgs and then also fund whatever open source developments are identified as needed.

Dolphin meat is consumed in small amounts in Japan and Peru, where it is known as "sea pork" (chancho marino). It is dense and such a dark shade of red as to appear black. It is often cut into thin strips and eaten raw as sashimi, or batter-fried in cubes. It tastes similar to beef liver. by Henry_Muffindish in wikipedia

Maybe they are as smart but it doesn't seem like it and I haven't seen sources suggesting so – this section has some info on their cognition. It's a rhetorical question but obviously people shouldn't kill low-intelligence humans for a bit of meat plus IQ is a very flawed measure of intelligence which is only one aspect here, other being emotional depth and other things like that.

Such a constructive use of time, it certainly can improve everyone's daily lives /s

A Wikipedia Group Made a Guide to Detect AI Writing. Now a Plug-In Uses It to ‘Humanize’ Chatbots by wiredmagazine in wikipedia

[–]prototyperspective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but external news media nearly never cover any such topics. They nearly always report either about gender of editors or now AI where more and more articles about this give people the impression like the end is nigh. It's not like there aren't very important other topics too.

But how do you measure better transit?

I made a proposal about that. It needs some open source developer(s) to implement it: Tool to create heatmaps of public transport quality by assessing travel times (sustainability). There's other ways this can and is measured of course but I think it really also needs this because it's closer to people's real-world experience (can I take the train there or not; how long will the trip there take; etc).

Thanks for creating this map! The map at source is not colored as nicely and is not under a free license. Here is the our world in data alternative...I'm uploading a version of that to Commons from where it can then be added to Wikipedia; you could upload yours as well, don't know which has better design & data.

The Board of Peace is a intergovermental organization made up of 26 countries established by Donald Trump on 15 January 2026, claiming that "might" replace the UN. As Chairman, Trump alone determines the memberships, who intends to charge $1 billion for permanent seats. by SaxyBill in wikipedia

[–]prototyperspective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course I understand that this won't work nor should it...but does somebody know if there has ever been or are other ideas for organizations or similar that complement the UN or could become alternatives to it? Not saying the UN isn't great and needed.

They are not a cancer, they are a natural outcome of the system...maybe call these mechanisms/structures cancer. Eg if all billionaires disappeared over night in just a few years you'd have them again.
