We have this problem in the education space - AI plagiarism detection isn’t reliable at all, but some professors will blindly rely on it to pin students for cheating. Still, as a professor, if the content is wrong, you can mark it as wrong, regardless of where and how it was written. Does anyone know if this policy prohibits removing wrong answers, or is it just that you can’t remove an answer only under the assumption that an AI wrote it?
There’s also a voting system which I think would discourage anyone who sounds like an AI from posting anyway if they get downvoted regularly. If I’m understanding this right, I think it might actually be the right call, but I’m interested in other perspectives in case I’m missing something.
Yup. I used to use Alien Blue heavily and the UI tweaks that Reddit did to it made it a subpar experience from what it was from the start. I preferred the greater information density, I didn’t need to see the thumbnail images as large as they were, it made poor use of space on the iPad, and I couldn’t swipe back and forth anymore. I continued to use Alien Blue as long as I could and then switched to Apollo.
Don't dox yourself. Try to limit your information to a Maidenhead locator or general area of at least a few kilometers in an urban area and a few dozen in rural areas....
Boston area! I’m a fan, folks are nice around here and it’s a good blend of city living while still being able to access nature. Folks are mostly liberal, which is great. Originally from the Midwestern US.
For a long time, a tiny handful of sites, especially reddit and other social media and youtube, have dominated my idea of the internet, and I'd love to change that and find cool new places.
I like Every Noise at Once. It’s a map of all the musical genres in Spotify with song previews, and every time I browse, I discover something new. If you click into a genre, you can see what artists are associated with it.
McSweeny’s isn’t exactly a hidden corner of the internet, but it’s so good that if there’s any chance you might not be aware of it, not mentioning it would be borderline negligence. I like this recent article on guttural screaming spaces in the office.
I've worked from home a few years now, and whilst the upsides are well known I've personally found some challenges there too. Have you experienced anything similar? How did you deal with it?...
I love working from home! I really like hunkering down, focusing, and getting into a good flow, and doing that from home is easy for me. I’ve been WFH about 3 years now and can’t see myself ever taking an office job again. I also have kind of brutal anxiety that is so much easier to handle from home.
One thing I do like is when my team meets for an in-person event, once or twice a year. It’s a lot for me, but I’m ready for it and have a good time when it rolls around.
I’ve also been in a position of managing folks who are remote, and I find that to be a lot easier as well. I made better connections on Zoom than I did in the office from a manager level, because it removed a social anxiety barrier I had. I don’t manage anymore, but if I did, I’d be happy to have a remote team and wouldn’t want it any other way.

Why is /r/Videos shutting down on June 12th? How will this change affect regular users? More info here. (lemmy.cloudhub.social)
The /r/videos mods are going all out and someone made this lovely graphic to explain why subs are going dark next week....
What do you think (this person's) username means, without looking it up?
I don't mean my username! Yours!...

My first garden. Decided to get into it for the summer. (midwest.social)
Planted tomatoes, cucumber, eggplant, jalapenos, cherry hot peppers, and squash.
