I’ve never really followed X (nor Twitter), Bluesky, Instagram, TikTok, etc. so I basically live under a rock. Sometimes I ask dumb questions to try to understand people a little better. Apologies if my questions inadvertently offend anyone. I mean no harm.

World News@lemmy.world•Rocket lifts off with four Artemis II astronauts on a mission to the moon and backEnglish
2·3 days agoI would guess they’d explain it the same way they explain other rocket launches.
I assume they’re aware that rockets get launched on a regular basis

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why don;t most of us Americans only need like one foreign language to pass high school? Why not make it mandatory for like 3 or 4 languages?Would that not give us the upper hand when traveling?
1·7 days agoI think this is one of the reasons why people from English-speaking countries are less motivated to learn other languages; English is almost everywhere, to varying degrees.
It’s sort of a gift and a curse. I enjoy learning languages, but there’s no practical need for me to, so I’m bad at it 🙈

1·8 days agoThere are language exchange sites and apps for that. Lots of people learn languages just as a fun hobby, and there are many resources out there for it

17·8 days agoFun fact: You can learn without school. There’s sooo much information outside of school walls, and it’s easier to access now than ever in the history of humanity.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is cryptocurrency good for anything?
8·8 days agoIt’s useful for sending money internationally in situations that would be otherwise difficult

Of course, say no. However, I doubt it will be effective. That company has way too much momentum despite everyone disliking them.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is cryptocurrency good for anything?
7·9 days agoSometimes it’s expensive or difficult to send money between two countries, depending on which countries they are. But if you know how to send crypto, it’s the same process and price no matter where it’s going.

3·10 days agoOh that’s an interesting challenge.
I hear some LLMs now have some solutions for the classic “how many Rs in ‘strawberry’” problem (related to the tokenization processes), but I have no idea how they might solve the phonetic thing. I’m sure some smart people will eventually find a way though

Technology@lemmy.world•Jensen Huang says Nvidia engineers should use AI tokens worth half their annual salary every year to be fully productiveEnglish
3·13 days agoThis may sound weird, but I think anecdotal evidence might be more informative than the productivity stats for now, until the industry settles on a new equilibrium.
Some engineers are more productive with AI, and some (maybe even most, still) are less productive. People are still putting in the effort to learn how to use it more effectively/productively (there is a learning curve), and some of the less productive are getting laid off.
It sucks, but that’s just how it is now.
Also, AI tooling is still evolving very rapidly. A lot of information and stats are only valid for maybe a few months.

I hope this art was made by a human instead of by paying a billionaire to generate it



Does that matter to them? I assumed not, but I don’t really know what they think about rocket launches, so maybe I shouldn’t assume
