Pronouns and tribal affiliations are now forbidden in South Dakota public university employee emails (apnews.com)

A new South Dakota policy to stop the use of gender pronouns by public university faculty and staff in official correspondence is also keeping Native American employees from listing their tribal affiliations in a state with a long and violent history of conflict with tribes....

ImplyingImplications,

Sorry, you’re just gonna have to guess what gender Professor Smith is because asking is now illegal.

ImplyingImplications,

See your problem is you’re editing the code until it passes the tests. It’s way easier if you edit the tests until it passes the code.

A friend of mine loves being in his backyard but hates the mosquitoes. He heard about this bat roost thing and installed one about 5 years ago. It has not attracted a single bat.

ImplyingImplications,

There’s a string stating that the code should not be passed or the employee will be fired. I’d assume this was a test to see if an employee meant to be doing code review was actually doing them. Spoiler, they were not, as OP said they found this in production code.

ImplyingImplications,

It’s because it’s not AI. They’re chatbots made with machine learning that used social media posts as training data. These bots have zero intelligence. Machine learning and neural networks might lead to AI eventually, but these bots aren’t it.

Step 1. Vote for me

Step 3. Profit! (for the corporations)

Women get blamed for being victimized constantly because it works. If there was no backlash the judge probably would have agreed with it.

I’m just imagining a sovciv mailing a CEO a violin and the CEO being very confused

ImplyingImplications,

When you watch CNN or MSNBC, you generally see an account of a trial that never took place. They spin the events so much that reality is totally distorted.

The media lies in their reporting, but not me! I’m telling the truth!

There is absolutely no good reason why a trial of this importance, or any trial, should not be televised live and in real time. Allowing the public to see their courts in action is the best guarantee of fairness.

The jury is anonymous and has been told not to reveal their identities because they could be put into danger by Trump fanatics. Trials don’t need vigilante justice. The trial already has a jury and a judge. They are the deciders of the outcome. If trump doesnt like the outcome he can appeal to different judges who will review to see if errors in process and judgment were made. That’s how the law works. Trump doesn’t get special rules.

What is the Legal copyright on a Lemmy Post?

Most instances don’t have a specific copyright in their ToS, which is basically how copyright is handled on corporate social media (Meta/X/Reddit owns license rights to whatever you post on their platform when you click “Agree”). I’ve noticed some people including Copyright notices in posts (mostly to prevent AI use). Is...

ImplyingImplications,

On top of all comments generally being copyrighted by their author automatically, the licence at the bottom of a comment is like a no trespassing sign. The sign itself doesn’t stop people from trespassing. You still need to call police when someone trespasses. If you never call police then the sign is literally useless.

The licence is the same thing. If someone includes it at the bottom of all their comments, but never launches legal action when someone violates that licence agreement, then it’s literally useless. Given that launching legal action is incredibly expensive, I highly doubt the people using these licences will ever follow up. Also, how will they even know? How will they know a company used their comment as training data for their commercial AI? How are they going to even enforce the terms of the licence?

ImplyingImplications,

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

ImplyingImplications,

Too many people got trolled into “removing the French language pack” on Linux systems that there’s now a check to see if someone is deleting every file off their computer (including the os system files). --no-preserve-root is the option you need to include to actually delete all the files off your system.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_national_emergencies_in_the_United_States
42 current national emergencies. One has been in existence since 1979 (sanctions against Iran), and both of Bush’s emergencies declared after September 11 are still active (one which gives the president the authority to control state national guard).

ImplyingImplications,

They messed up some of the samples and didn’t include them in the data

I bet he didn’t expect the Spanish Inquisition

ImplyingImplications,
