I can confirm that the Opera method works. I couldn’t create an account before but I’ve managed to create the account using the built-in VPN of the Opera browser. Here’s an example of a Python script written with Claude 2 that GPT-4 wouldn’t have enough context for, https://lemm.ee/post/2595655 Really impressive.
Oh yeah I was thinking more along the lines of video games or movies where there are too many people creating it. For books, etc you can definitely donate.
There should be a way to pay only the workers when you buy something. In that case, you could pay them but only after pirating and making sure you enjoy it. Since there is nothing like that, I think you should pay only content from small creators. Big creators already have plenty, and paying for anything else just gives money to greedy executives who then lower the quality of the content to make more money. Of course, if you have the means and don’t pay anything, you are just making sure there will be less of that content made in the future. It isn’t scalable; if everybody pirated content without paying a single cent, there would be no content made except by hobbyists who don’t want to make a living out of it.
I really like to see communities like lemmy.film, mtgzone.com, and programming.dev and wish there was an instance about literature.

Edward Bernays, the nephew of Sigmund Freud, was a pioneer of propaganda and public relations. He is credited with the introduction of bacon and eggs into the American breakfast. In the 1920s, Americans typically ate light breakfasts of coffee, orange juice, and rolls. In order to increase bacon sales, Bernays wrote to 5,000 physicians asking whether a heavy breakfast was better for health than a light breakfast. 4,500 physicians wrote back confirming that a heavy breakfast was better for health as the body is depleted of nutrients after a night of sleep. This “research” of doctors encouraging Americans to eat a heavier breakfast, namely “bacon and eggs,” was published in several major newspapers and magazines to great success. Beech-Nut’s profits increased rapidly, and bacon and eggs became a staple of the American breakfast[1][3][4][5][6].

Edward Snowden, a former National Security Agency contractor and government whistleblower, has been credited with the quote “Arguing that you don’t care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don’t care about free speech because you have nothing to say”. Snowden has argued that privacy is a fundamental right and that without it, individuals cannot have anything for themselves. The “nothing to hide” argument has been used to defend the collection and use of government data beyond surveillance and disclosure, but critics argue that it is inherently paradoxical and that what is hidden is not necessarily relevant. Snowden has also stated that the burden of justification falls on those seeking to infringe upon human rights, and that nobody needs to justify why they “need” a right.
This has already been mentioned a few times. Just find the relevant issue on GitHub and give it an upvote.
I don’t know there is a lemmy-stats-crawler utility that does it automatically and produces a json file. So all I do is parse that json file to get the numbers.
Depending on which instances are blocked you will see different content in ones or others. Which is why I choose instance based on the minimum number of blocked users based on the results of this script.
Maybe get your country to have a higher democracy index than china before criticizing them?

I knew I recognized him from somewhere. He was the developer of lib.reviews. https://github.com/eloquence
The one I like most is YouTube, where it shows everything from the last few days and then only the most popular content from the last few weeks, months, and even years. I would like something similar, where the further I browse, the more votes a post must have to show up in the feed.
I believe Claude 2 is the best LLM option currently, if you live in the US or UK or have a VPN.
I’m still waiting for a local autonomous AI agent with search. I don’t understand why most autonomous agent projects use GPT-4 without incorporating search capabilities. Allowing the model to continuously hallucinate is not productive. Instead, it should be able to discover factual information and perform genuinely useful tasks.
To enforce writing all type hints in Visual Studio Code (VSCode) with Mypy, you can follow these steps:
Install Mypy: First, you need to install the Mypy package. Open the terminal and run the following command:
pip install mypy
Configure Mypy in VSCode: Open your project in VSCode and go to the settings. You can access the settings by clicking on the gear icon in the lower-left corner and selecting “Settings”. Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + ,
(Windows/Linux) or Cmd + ,
(Mac) to open the settings.
Enable Mypy: In the settings, search for “mypyEnabled” and make sure it is set to true
. This enables Mypy for type checking in your Python code.
Specify Mypy arguments: Search for “mypyArgs” in the settings and add the following arguments to the list:
"--strict"
"--disallow-untyped-defs"
"--disallow-untyped-calls"
"--disallow-any-generics"
"--warn-redundant-casts"
"--warn-unused-ignores"
These arguments enforce stricter type checking and help catch potential issues in your code.
Save the settings: Once you have made the necessary changes in the settings, save the file.
Now, when you open a Python file in VSCode, Mypy will perform real-time type checking and highlight any type-related errors or inconsistencies in your code. It will enforce writing all type hints according to the specified arguments in the settings[3].
Note: It’s important to note that Mypy is a static type checker and cannot enforce type hints at runtime. However, it can help catch type-related errors during development and improve code readability and maintainability[2][4][5].
