And it was worth it

No.

Aren’t distributed ledgers public? Once someone’s ID has been determined, aren’t their transactions publicly visible?

But can it bring them to life in a jar?

There are a lot of software developers on Lemmy.

AI is being pushed as a software development tool. It tends to remove the fun part of our jobs (coding, debugging, optimizing) and relegates us to the shitty parts (code review).

We don’t like that.

Depends who owns the infrastructure after it is built, and how payment is structured.

Some kind of comparison group would have made the result more informative.

Seems unlikely. If someone is invested in making those bots, they’ll find a way. Running a browser in a VM and simulating clicks is totally doable. If that’s what it takes to make money, they’ll do it.

Also Canadian, from eastern Ontario. There is no culture of volunteering here, as far as I can tell. For about fifteen years I volunteered with political and advocacy groups. Getting people to come out was like pulling teeth. Very few of my friends volunteer.

Yes, volunteering is a highschool requirement, but the few places I’ve seen students volunteer have been at kids sporting events, where their time isn’t used effectively.

Statscan says there’s a clear downward trajectory.

Good call. I’ve been faffing around at 425. I’ll go higher.

A few weeks! Ugh! That isn’t what I wanted to hear, but it’s good to know this is to be expected. Thanks!

The smell isn’t coming from within the oven. It seems to be originating from the cooling fan that keeps the stovetop from overheating.

That’s good to know. Do you remember how long it took?

It’s a pretty nasty smell, so I have all the windows in my house open (two in the kitchen) and the kitchen exhaust fan running.

I removed the packaging from all surfaces I can access without disassembling the stove.

That’s a good idea. I’ll check.

I’ve been running it at 425f for around seven or eight hours so far. 😞
