Technology@lemmy.world•AI promised to free up workers’ time. UC Berkeley researchers found the opposite.English
161·18 days agoIn their observations and interviews with employees of the 200-person company, the researchers found that generative AI didn’t free up time—it expanded what workers felt capable of, and willing, to take on.
The title is either poorly thought out, or bait lol
TL;DR: the study says that AI doesn’t save time, but it intensifies work because the people using it feel more confident in tackling more things (that’s my interpretation after skimming it)

World News@lemmy.world•Attacking Iran’s nuclear programme could drive it towards a bomb, experts warnEnglish
34·21 days agoI’m not a dictator of a country. But if I was, the moral lesson I would be learning is that it’s better to have nuclear weapons than not, because the US will invade me regardless

Buy European@feddit.uk•EU OS - Community-led Proof-of-Concept for a common free Operating System for the EU public sector 🇪🇺English
19·28 days agoI don’t really know about this one. There are 3 things that kind of bother me:
- Skimming through the main page and goal page, there isn’t any mention of how they plan to propose this to the EU. (Or maybe I missed it, someone correct me if I’m wrong please) So… What’s the plan exactly? Stay put and hope someone at EU parliament notices you?
- I like Fedora, in fact it’s one of my two distros of choice. That said - considering the point of this is to make EU independent when it comes to OS - why Fedora? It’s from Red Hat, which belongs to IBM - a big tech american company. In theory we could fork Fedora and make our own developments on this new fork, but why when readily available options already exist? Like Opensuse, Ubuntu* or even Debian.
- The name… Look, I know it’s superficial but it matters more than we think, because optics are important. Think of every major app or OS in the world. How many of them are named after their country or union? Imagine if Windows was called “United States of America OS”. It’s cringe. Why not use names closely related to EU instead? Like Elysium OS, from Ode to Joy anthem, would sound a lot better and would make the project look more serious
*I know Ubuntu is from UK, but it would be better than an american based distro
Edit: just checked their FAQ page, they touch on my point 1 (although not as much I would like) and 2.

Technology@lemmy.world•Password managers are less secure than promisedEnglish
23·1 month agoCopy pasting a comment that I saw on Reddit
——
Link to the original study (with a less sensationalized title):
A few important notes:
-
the study is about Bitwarden, LastPass, Dashlane and 1Password. Proton Pass isn’t mentioned.
-
the study presumes that they’re working with a malicious server (read this as compromised server, controlled by an attacker). The attacks they talk about in the article would not work on a normal server. Here’s their quote:
No need to panic: all of our attacks presume a malicious server. We have no reason to believe that the password manager vendors are currently malicious or compromised, and as long as things stay that way, your passwords are safe. That said, password managers are high-value targets, and breaches do happen.
- Here’s another quote, about other password managers:
You can ask your provider the following questions:
- Do you offer end-to-end encryption? What security do you provide in case your server infrastructure were to be compromised?
- How do you check that public keys and public-key ciphertexts are authentic?
- How do you authenticate security-critical settings, such as the KDF type and the iteration count?
- Do you provide integrity guarantees for a user’s vault as a whole? Can a malicious server add items to your vault?
You can also ask your favourite password manager to commission an audit checking for our attacks in their products.
- If you still feel unsure/unsafe, then adopt an offline password manager (I highly recommend keepassXC).

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•2 North American 4 you has been createdEnglish
13·1 month agoYou’re right, this is normal. Off the top of my head:
-
tempura originated because of the trade between the portuguese and japanese
-
portuguese monopoly on cinnamon trade with Sri Lanka and India, allowed Europe to get it for cheap and it became a main ingredient in a lot of desserts and confections
-
the UKs tea culture came from a portugese noblewoman, who learned it from China
Cultures are constantly taking ideas from each orher

I don’t have much experience with that community, but from the little I’ve seen, agreed. It’s not good.
A good forum design will only get you so far, the rest is up to the moderators. If you let bad actors in, it doesn’t matter how you designed your forum, they will poison the well and drive other people out.
The best communities I’ve been in are in independent old-style forums. One of them is Tildes. Most of these don’t feature downvotes (or upvotes for that matter) and are honestly the better places to have discussions IMO.
Dogpile on them
It basically just turns a discussion forum into Disneyland, where everyone is happy all the time, because there’s no other option
In my experience, that’s not what happens
Yeah, something that is becoming very clear in these replies is that people got used to Reddit way of things.
Perhaps it’s one of those things that you have to experience for yourself.

It has nothing to do with explaining oneself, but more about fostering discussion. You can check my earlier reply to the other user where I explain it better.
