Do you think millennials who grew up with the early Internet and home computers will be as bad with future technology as boomers are with current technology?
  • It's because everything is now UI driven and done for them. They didn't have to debug or solve computer issues. It's a sad state of affairs that the better technology gets the less the population understands it. I'd say, with respect to this post, millennials may be the only generation that can truly problem solve tech, both past and future.

  • JCPS parents frustrated with new bus routes as some kids get home at almost 10 p.m. on the first day
  • From the area. The issue is state funding for transportation is down 84%. As a result what was 950+ bus routes for 96k students has been shortened to 550ish routes this year. It is a combination of drivers leaving for other jobs to no money to incentivise people who can work at the major ups here for double/triple the pay.

    The smaller amount of routes for the same population means they had to do something different. This year they used an AI routing program to "optimize" the transportation which has led to longer routes (thus more variables), the crazy amount of start times, and busses having to hit multiple schools in a single run (3-4 on avg). The district is telling us they didn't configure the AI properly while the drivers are saying during practice runs the last couple days, with zero kids on board, they haven't been able to be within an hour to 90 minutes of their final mark.

    There's a lot more fine details leading to this but it's all become one big cluster. School is already cancelled Monday and Tuesday also and there was a distinct lack of staying Wednesday+ wasn't off the table.

    Oh ... Because of money and federal regulations they don't have gps. The drivers literally have something printed out like the days of MapQuest.

    Anyways just wanted to clear up some stuff.

  • Friends.. I've lost again.. I will try to do better next time:C..
  • It is chatgpt. If the AI doesn't know something or it's too new (post 2021) it will make up stuff (hallucinations they call it).

    The request was for a "News article about Australia sending emus to Ukraine for the war"

  • OneShot - The Most Immersive Game I've Ever Played
  • Some aspects of the immersion OP is discussing would have come across better on PC. On consoles they had to create a virtual PC to run the game so 8t simulates the effect. That virtual PC however always finds you that you are in a game.

  • Wow! It actually makes sense!
  • US was supposed to get the metric system but alas... Pirates

    The reason the Fahrenheit scale does not put the freezing point of water at 0 degrees as the Celsius scale does is that Daniel Fahrenheit, the inventor of the scale, did not use the freezing and boiling points of water as the basis of his scale.

    As for the date formatting, here is an interesting read on it and how it relays more information faster.
