I couldn't find this using the search.

Just change lemmy.post.create to lemmy.post.createe to trigger an AttributeError. That way you can debug the code without creating any posts. You can also use many print statements all around the code, I would use two for each line to make sure the computer isn't fooling you. Lastly, you can spin up your own Lemmy instance to not have to worry about the generated posts.

I'm wondering if it's possible to see the local feed of another instance from the one I'm using. I'm interested in exploring content from other instances without having to visit every single community, but I'm not sure how to do it. I've tried searching for a way to do this on the documentation and using the Lemmy search, but I haven't found any clear instructions. Does anyone know how to see the local feed of another instance? Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Testing.

Edit: I was wrong the ranking that works like forums is New Comments and yes it seems to take into account the OP comments.

In Lemmy, the active filter view is designed to prioritize posts with the latest activity, similar to how forums work. However, it remains unclear whether commenting on your own post in Lemmy will bump it on the active filter view. Some forum platforms, such as Discourse, allow a practice known as the "ghost bump," where users can make a post and delete it to draw attention to their post without adding new content[^1]. While it is uncertain if this is possible on Lemmy, it's worth noting that even if it were, it would result in an unnecessary comment that cannot be completely removed. The comment would still be visible, indicating that it was deleted by the post's creator. If you have any experience with Lemmy's active filter view or know whether commenting on your own post bumps it, please share your thoughts in the comments below.

As an enthusiastic supporter of Lemmy, I am eager to contribute to the project. However, I hold strong reservations about writing a single line of code for a project hosted on a Micro$oft server. While I have created a few issues on GitHub, I firmly believe that my contributions could be significantly amplified if there were a mirror of Lemmy that utilized Forgejo hosting outside the United States. I would be absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to contribute more actively to this incredible project if such an alternative hosting option were available.

You don't have any idea of how GPT works. Read about it and then we can talk.

Comparing current LLMs with autocomplete is stupid. An autocomplete can't pass law or biology exams in the 90th percentile like GTP-4 can.

Recently, I found myself questioning the accuracy of a diagnosis provided by a doctor I visited. Surprisingly, an AI seemed to offer a more insightful assessment. However, I understand the importance of not solely relying on AI-generated information. With that in mind, I'm eager to discover a reputable online platform where I can seek medical advice. Ideally, I hope to find a community where I can obtain multiple opinions to make a more informed decision about my health. If anyone could recommend such a site, I would greatly appreciate it.

French courts have been imposing disproportionately severe sentences for minor offenses, including 10 months in prison for stealing a can of Red Bull and one year for a homeless boy with schizophrenia caught looting a luxury store. The overwhelmed courts rush cases, provide minimal time for defendants, and prioritize punishment under the instruction of the Justice Minister. Furthermore, the French government is censoring social media and justifying it by claiming to protect public order, but it infringes upon free speech and mirrors tactics used by authoritarian regimes. The justice system exhibits a double standard, favoring the privileged, and creates a class divide, leading to unrest. Ironically, the government compares itself to oppressive nations while undermining democratic principles.

Hopefully there are some people more positive than that, willing to change society so AGI doesn't make most humans starve to death or be imprisoned.

I feel like this is what happened when you’d see posts with hundreds / thousands of upvotes but had only 20-ish comments.

Nah it's the same here in Lemmy. It's because the algorithm only accounts for votes and not for user engagement.

You can't claim it's different either, so? I'll still claim whatever the fuck I want.

You can't have a source to Reddit's proprietary algorithms lol. Ask u/spez.

Top Hour is the same as Reddit's rising option.

Locked in a room with an internet connection? A lot. But without any contact with the outside world? Not nearly as much. It could have other people running experiments for it with an internet connection, but not without one.

Anyway, whether or not the AGI can interact with the real world undermines the purpose of my explicit statement in the question. I specifically mentioned that it only operates as a human on a computer. I didn't mention it could acquire a physical body, so let's just assume it can't and can't use other people to do physical labor either.

I heard disruptive science is slowing down which I think means pretty much everything possible has already been thought of. So talking about things that exist, do you mean a cheaper solar panel or wind/water turbine? Or are we talking about science fiction like an Arc Reactor?

Imagine an AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) that could perform any task a human can do on a computer, but at a much faster pace. This AGI could create an operating system, produce a movie better than anything you've ever seen, and much more, all while being limited to SFW (Safe For Work) content. What are the first things you would ask it to do?

I thought it was a great idea when I read it in this comment. That way, if you didn't want to hear about Reddit, you wouldn't have to.

Maybe I've installed too many plugins? I have close to 20.

Edit: It was just an issue on Arch Linux.

No, I am 40 plugins all active and they have not changed my browser load time almost at all.

Make sure there are no other issues. If you are on Arch Linux, there is a problem with xdg-desktop-portal-gnome that if installed will slowdown loading of many programs.

Both platforms offer unique features, but also come with limitations. While Lemmy offers diverse content, it lacks robust tag metadata for organizing and searching images. On the other hand, boorus excel at categorizing images with tags but lack the discussion and the diverse content from Lemmy. Why haven't we seen a platform that combines the best of both worlds? How do you envision it would be like?
