That is why I already ask it to generate unit tests for its AI generated functions as well, which are also wrong semantically sometimes....

Mastodon has like zero comments on any news source i follow.

Maybe because the technical people there are more concerned about their privacy and bot spam there and do not post for that reason?

What I try to explain: by posting on this platform about your topic(s) of interest you potentially dox yourself already.

Your writing style and word frequency table allow doxing yourself without even realizing it 🕵.

am I the only one who would advocate for text only storage: no. This comment also gets my point? There should be text only lemmy instances which only save text and do not allow any kind of image posting or storage.

  • text is less offensive to consume and moderate than evil images or video
  • text is way more information dense and can be even compressed more! Truly the green biosphere friendly data format. I would be willing to save text only data of strangers on my hard-drive, but not images or video. Could even be valuable llm analysis training data.

Yes people could post base64 encoded images, but that is a larger technical barrier and can be detected. If image storage is really need, images should be heavily compressed (webp 90% quality loss), provided as links to external sites, and whenever possible svg / vector graphics should be preferred.

no! Have we already reached peak lemmy?

tldr: Pagan Mongol tribes

I theorize: Nomadic mongol tribes (horsemen who used bow and arrow to hunt 🏇🏹) converted quite quickly to the religion of the people they conquered. But the Mongols where mostly pagan shamanistic tribes in the beginning (they believed in the Sky god Tengri) and transferred some of their culture into ruling elites of their subject countries and killed many monotheistic farmers people greatly altering east asian and central asian demographics at a scale of 40.000.000 people 💀. Also the Mongol conquests acted as a buffer that kept Islam or Orthodox Christianity spreading beyond central asia into east asia for 500 years:

  • Mongol tribes captured Moscow and beyond, preventing orthodox Christianity to expand to China faster
  • Mongol empire captured the Chinese capital Beijing. Maybe their shamanistic believes influenced locals.
  • Timurid (emperor Timur was grandson of Mongol Ghengis Khan) empire only expanded west not to China by their luck. They defeated mostly muslim empires like Persians and Ottomans. This prevented larger muslim expansion into east Asia. Even Europeans viewed the muslim timurids as a great threat, but also as a ally against Persian and Ottoman empires.
  • The siege of Baghdad in the year 1258 by the Mongol empire with Chinese siege-craft destroyed the Muslim "golden age" destroying a chance of their expansion to east asia

Additional theory: Shamanistic Mongol tribe invasions might have deeply altered the subconscious of the religious people they annexed in central Asia/Eastern russia and Persia, what is known that they replaced the ruling elites and subtly influenced hierarchy to make taxation easier.

Don't the Scottish men wear short skirts? But they seem rather the exception than the rule. Maybe the native Americans also wore skirts of some kind, or sometimes nothing at all.

Yep I agree now the analysis is wrong on the extrovert/introvert part and it is totally uncorrelated. Many "business types" who love the Elons, Peter Thiels, or Viveks out there seem management types who want short term stock prices to go up, by any means needed.

Also I would not describe Donald Trump or Steve Banon as introverts.

Yep many people left twitter and did not return. Basically they are silent now.

okay. So please. Stop using X. Use Mastodon or other Fediverse alternatives, even if your reach is smaller there?
