I assume it’s not just about the gravity, but also the much larger radius of the planet would mean much larger distance from the surface, and thus much more fuel needed.

Technology@lemmy.world•Australia’s teen social media ban is a flop. But there’s no joy in ‘I told you so’English
71·13 days agoIf you take such a broad definition of social media, then nearly the entire Internet becomes “social media” and the term loses its meaning, IMO.

6613·13 days agoI mean, social media should be banned for everyone, not just teenagers. It’s a great evil in the world today, and in a functional democracy that wasn’t braindead, we should ban them outright for the mass harm and destruction they have caused.
That being said, I fully understand that the motivations of countries for these kinds of bans have little to do with the harm of social media and are much more about surveillance.

212·13 days agoNah, microslop is a great name, especially because they throw tantrums about the name. It’s very descriptive of what they have become.
if you sleep at the same time consistently, changing that is a big change for your body. It takes time to adjust a strong routine, and it takes a physical toll to do so.
We have lots of evidence of it causing all kinds of problems: increased numbers of heart attacks, car accidents, and more. It very much is a detriment to society.

News@lemmy.world•Why AI hasn’t caused a job apocalypse — so farEnglish
1·22 days agoI mean, it sure is taking a lot of jobs by dumbass execs who think it makes sense to cut a bunch of people off of payroll since they have AI now.
It certaintly can’t do the job by any stretch of the imagination, but that doesn’t mean a ton of fools aren’t bought into the grift and convinced that it can.

2·22 days agoEspecially because part of the “art” (term used extremely loosely) of using an LLM is to frequently throw out its context (i.e, the input you’ve already given it) because of context rot.
I’d take a fresh grad any day of the week over the slop machines. Fresh grads are great.

Technology@lemmy.world•When the Category Leader Stalls : Postman and the Future of API ToolingEnglish
11·1 month agoThis argument doesn’t really hold up, honestly. That is all easily done with shell scripting, and shell scripts can be committed to source control and shared to other members of the team easily. This is what my team does for our common API needs. It even has ecosystem support in many places, such as popular openapi renderers providing curl command examples for routes automatically, being able to copy the exact request made by a web browser as a curl command from the network tab automatically, and so on.
I use curl for absolutely everything, including testing out my work for each and every ticket I work on. Been doing this for years now. It works great and has many, many advantages over property bullshit like Postman.

Technology@lemmy.world•QuitGPT goes viral as users cancel ChatGPT in political protestEnglish
62·2 months agoSeems crazy to only be realizing they’re evil now, but I guess it’s something at least.

I stated an assumption and was contributing to the conversation. Even if that assumption is incorrect, there’s no need to be a dick about it.
It seems like a larger atmosphere would result in a longer duration exposed to atmospheric drag, thus requiring more fuel to overcome it.
