I can read this as either: AI allows anyone to code their own stuff.
Or
AI is hogging all the million dollar ideas.
The Picard Maneuver@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•*Permanently Deleted*1·2 months agoIt’s nobody’s decision but yours, but I will point out that as humans, we are very poor predictors of how we will think or feel in the future.
When we’re depressed, our brains process thoughts of the future as if we’ll be sad forever. When we’re happy and have lots of energy, we make big plans as if we’ll always feel that way. Lottery winners feel an initial euphoria and think they’re set for life, but studies show their mood returns to baseline after about 1 year. Age and development helps you push the fog of foresight a little further, but it’s still hard.
I don’t know you, but if I were speaking to myself at age 22, I would caution making a decision like that so early. I still cringe about being tasked with picking a college major at 18 and how wrong that could’ve gone, and this is easily 100x more important.

I may have to one of these days.
The Picard Maneuver@lemmy.worldOPMto memes@lemmy.world•Have you astral projected yet today?13·2 months agoJust did some digging, and it’s legit and from a 1994 book called “The Internet Guide for New Users” by Daniel P. Dern.
Mildly interesting side-note, I found someone’s blog about posting this image and book to a (now non-existent) fediverse server. https://doughnut.neocities.org/blag/15
I love my Logitech G502, which I’m sure you will see recommended anywhere you look because it’s pretty popular.
I’m still using the wired version, but if I were to be in the market for a new one today, the wireless one would be the first I checked out.
It’s so sad. I feel like we need to be hoarding all sorts of random media that was put out pre-AI, because it’s flooding everything. Videos, music, gaming, historical photos/videos…
Random example: I have a folder of desktop wallpapers that I’ve been casually adding to for the last decade or so. Literally thousands of them by this point, but I haven’t added anything recently because every source is inundated with AI generations now.
There are a lot of long nature videos on youtube meant for this purpose - some with relaxing music, some without. I’ll occasionally play one on a TV when I know I’m going to be bouncing around the house all day, and it’s nice.
I don’t know of any actual livestreams like that, but some zoos have livestreams of their aquariums or exhibits that are cool too.
I honestly have no idea where this originated, but it looks like it’s been everywhere, has t-shirts and posters, etc.
Just uh… don’t look at the rest of what Elmo said.

He’s famous as a really good geo-guesser (a game where people get random google streetview images and try to drop a pin as close to the coordinates as possible).
People give him challenges all the time, and it’s really impressive.
Here he is finding someone’s location based on a picture taken from a plane.
