And everybody is complaining how LLMs hallucinate all the time.

I could see this happening in Europe or Scandinavia where everyone is a lot less uptight than they are in the US. Hell even Canada.

I've been told half of Scandinavia will straight up stab you for approaching them like this

[–] ook@discuss.tchncs.de 27 points 2 months ago

You have been told correctly.

Never been to Scandinavia have you? Those are low contact cultures with large personal spaces. Most Scandis would never let a stranger hold their hand.

Estonian not Scandinavian here, but we were hella mad when we had to social distance at 2 meters. What a huge relief it was to go back to the usual 5 meters when those rules went away.

Yeah, more Spain/Italy, maybe Switzerland and France too. Austria; less likely. Germany and upwards; nope.

[–] holomorphic@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Switzerland? In the French or Italien speaking parts maybe. The German speaking part is more like Germany with less bureaucracy.

No, we are a bit more, um, easygoing? forgiving? What with Ticino in the country and compromise being a core tenet. And there are far more foreign students/workers and tourists here. Ok, you can include Austria too.

No caffeine junkie is that clever before they've had their morning fix. Now, if everyone in the story spoke only in groans and unintelligible zombie noises, it'd be a little more believable.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I've never understood people with that attitude. I like caffeine, it makes me feel good, but it never felt unable to function if I haven't been able to have it. If you're not getting enough sleep caffeine won't fix that. It's not magic rest juice, it just gives you temporary energy but you'll pay that back when the caffeine wears off.

You have a healthier relationship with caffeine and sleep than many do. That's the simple truth of it. You could be a caffeine craving zombie too, just get less sleep and drink more coffee.

Problems sometimes arrive with their solution in hand.

Haha in Scandinavia? Sure thing.
