I didn’t say otherwise.

Yeah, teaching children about that AI exists, what it does and doesn’t is the same as raising a child as a nazi. What are you on about? Of course teaching about the cruelties of the nazis is crucial to prevent it from happening again.

Or are you saying this guy is an ai? And raising their children as ai? Nazis believing their children should become a nazi doesn’t mean the rest of society should not know and be thought about national socialism.

Fuck AI, but knowing about it is key to defeating it. Misinformation will not help destroy it.

Well, to play devil’s advocate: Confronting children with AI early on prepares them for what’s to come. If he teaches about the dangers, the advantages and disadvantages it’s good to do so early on so the kids can understand what they are dealing with. They will be exposed to it anyway so it’s good to talk and learn about it.

That being said: I don’t think this is what he meant by that.

No, that’s a knoife!

Correction: In a matter of minutes.

How could this have gone over my head?

This. Also, don’t put them on the spot. If unsure, give your number and let them decide. If she’s interested, she’ll text, if not you haven’t forced her to make a decision on the spot.

What I meant is that even low end usb is going to be capable of these speeds and power. Atm you’ll find lots of really cheap USB C cables not capable of that. Often using 2.0 as a standard. And: even if they claim they do 240W doesn’t mean they really do.

The cheaper it gets, the less it’ll be relevant to look up the specs of the cables.

I think that’s a teething problem. Producing high quality cables with high bandwidth or power will get cheaper, as production gets more efficient.

No, they really want to keep it as cheap as possible. It’s the Bundesregierung that rather subsidises Diesel privileges and Pendlerpauschalen.

Something I would’ve said. Stretching my legs and spreading my wings CAN get confusing.

Peter Steinlechner? Is this the German journalist who was writing for Gamestar in the early days?

I’ve got a bad feeling about this.

That’s what they want us to believe.

Yeah, they work. To a certain point. Over the last decade or so I got dozens of dates. If you are engaging in conversation, asking interesting questions and are generally nice to talk to (and your profile and picture show this upfront) you can get dates.

But it gets increasingly harder to get matches as a platform gains popularity. Apps usually put newcomers to the top of the stack to make them visible and get them matches. The older your profile, the more profiles are newer then yours and you slowly fall down the stack. When the app grows in size, you are quicker to go down the stack.

In addition to that it seems every app has a certain demographic progression: At first more women use a new app. They don’t get that much matches and are more likely to match. As time goes on this changes, as men are joining and making up 70% of the user base. Now woman are flooded with people wanting to match and you are unlikely to stick out or, what happens more often: people are overwhelmed and just stop interacting.

My extensive use of apps showed me that you can be most successful in fairly new apps. Bumble used to be really awesome until it got popular.
