No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do people hate AI so much?English
21·2 days agoReading through this thread and your responses gives the strong impression that you just want to argue while at the same time aren’t very well informed on the matter. Where you do respond its mostly whataboutism rather than actually addressing the comment you are responding to.
Your post asks “Why do people hate AI?” and then goes on to validates many of the commonly heard reasons people have for hating AI. You end with a suggestion that if we could develop AI into something else in the future, it might be good.
So it seems you already understand why people hate AI and are promoting an agenda rather than asking a genuine question.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it actually healthy for people to have a place to confess things anonymously?English
12·5 days agoAbout 10 years ago there were several apps like that: Whisper, Secret, Yik Yak, etc. All faced controversy and went out of business. Today you have Hush.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Honey, I Shrunk The Vids - a Windows transcoding frontend for FFMPEGEnglish
7·16 days agoTo be clear, I’m not trying to discourage you from posting about your project and I think you should always pursue such personal challenges.
I also think it helps others better contextualize your project if you include a bit in your post about your motivation (like in your reply).
To me, it’s also very nice to mention alternatives you are aware of and how your project compares to them. “It’s doesn’t do as much as Handbrake but it’s simpler” is a selling point for some people.

Technology@lemmy.world•New packaging can warn you when meat has spoiledEnglish
2·29 days agoI live in an apartment with a very small fridge that has a tiny freezer inside it. I got a small chest freezer that I use for storage. I only use the one in my fridge for freezing stuff, then it moves to the chest freezer.
Do you do meal planning and if so do your plans include your frozen stuff?

Technology@lemmy.world•New packaging can warn you when meat has spoiledEnglish
6·29 days agoYes, and freeze sauces, soups, and stews in ice cube trays and then into freezer bags for easy portioning later. This was life changing advice for me.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why don't cursive numbers exist?English
0·2 months agoFirst off, only a subset of cursive systems connect all letters. These are called Continuous Cursive. Second, many cursive writing systems do include numbers.



If your goal is to understand why people feel the way they do then why are you arguing with people and attempting to refute their responses instead of thoughtfully reflecting their concerns back to them to confirm if you have understood?
