Please don’t feed sugar cubes to horses :(

We got through workdays without LLMs only a FEW years ago. Except the hype for AI not much has changed since then. This alone should be proof that it’s possible.

I hate this kind of reasoning.

“Let’s ignore this big problem because there are other bigger problems”

The same people say shit like: “Why are you sad? There are so many people who have it even worse than you!”

All this makes us do nothing until the “smaller” problems become so big that the damage is done and then those people will say “Well, we are in too deep. It it what it is. Can’t change it now 🤡”

Still running since 2020. No face plant, yet. It’s the most vanilla Arch + KDE install though so I don’t know what should be breaking.

Well, I sit on the toilet like in the picture and proceed to shit my pants like it’s supposed to be done. No poop hole needed sir!

Also you’re not supposed to pull down your pants.

You’re right, you definitely should treat sex offenders way harsher.

Also if a school says “don’t do X or you WILL fail the test and MIGHT get expelled” and then you proceed to do X then I think it’s on you and not ‘bad treatment’ at all. Especially if you do X repeatedly.

I’m all for teaching tech literacy. It’s one of the most important skills. However, if a task is about writing your own thoughts in your own words then maybe you should prevent cheating by limiting access to tools like llms or have better supervision.

If the task involves using technology then the task should be adapted so you still need your own mind to solve it (obviously).

Yeah true. The blacklisting goes way too far.

I think it’s not so steep if students are told beforehand. Tell them what counts as cheating. Tell them the consequences. Tell them it’s serious.

In university I always had to sign a little text that informed us that we are not allowed to cheat and that doing so would lead to failing the test and potentially getting expelled.

It sounds silly but “running the program from your head” is a super important skill as a programmer. It’s what you do when you read and try to understand other people’s code.

Or at least give students computers that have restricted or no access to the internet? Even before LLMs having access to the internet would have been a huge opportunity to cheat. At least in most subjects.

Also, what happened to teachers/supervisors walking around and checking if the students cheat? Back when I went to school we also cheated with cheat sheets or exchanging answers but it was always risky because getting busted meant failing the test (or worse).

Letting students use the internet unrestrictedly would be like the teacher leaving the room and leaving us unsupervised for the duration of the test back in my days.

I get the frustration. However, the satisfaction to build something this way weighed always bigger when the project was completed and working. At least for me.

And since its already dead you can even make more holes if you got a knife!

Now show me the same for the mattress-to-pee-ratio.

so drinking breast milk from your own “species” is considered weird when drinking breast milk from other animals is just fine? smh

There are lots of occasions for this one though!

Did you find your camera at the thrift shop as well? Picture looks vintage.

You wanna wear them above your diapers.
