I looked for the original article, abstract:

Human capital—encompassing cognitive skills and personality traits—is critical for labor market success, yet the personality component remains difficult to measure at scale. Leveraging advances in artificial intelligence and comprehensive LinkedIn data, we extract the Big 5 personality traits from facial images of 96,000 MBA graduates, and demonstrate that this novel" Photo Big 5" predicts school rank, compensation, job seniority, industry choice, job transitions, and career advancement. Using administrative records from top-tier MBA programs, we find that the Photo Big 5 exhibits only modest correlations with cognitive measures like GPA and standardized test scores, yet offers comparable incremental predictive power for labor outcomes. Unlike traditional survey-based personality measures, the Photo Big 5 is readily accessible and potentially less susceptible to manipulation, making it suitable for wide adoption in academic research and hiring processes. However, its use in labor market screening raises ethical concerns regarding statistical discrimination and individual autonomy.

I don’t have the time nor the expertise to read everything to understand how they take into account the bias that good looking white men with educated parents are way more likely to succeed at life.

If that doesn’t work, see a plumber.

Maybe one starting point is the 2 tones of CO₂ estimated to be the annual budget per person to stay at 1.5°C of global warming (already passed). For people living in rich countries, staying under the 2t requires active efforts, it’s possible since developing countries do it, but they are often considered too much of a hassle by the average rich country person: little to no individual car, little to no plane, home energy performance investments, smaller home, less animal food, shopping local etc.

As far as I understand, for the basic needs, it’s totally possible to sustain the demographic peak that should be around 10 billion humans in 2100. But certainly not with the current level of resources consumption in rich countries.

climate change, ocean acidification, stratospheric ozone depletion, biogeochemical flows in the nitrogen cycle, excess global freshwater use, land system change, the erosion of biosphere integrity, chemical pollution, and atmospheric aerosol loading.

Does that mean I will have more choice in which surveillance agency I want to be spied by?

It will keep happening. LLMs are the perfect tools for those huge meat grinding consulting companies. Their industry is all about looking good, not factual quality, just like LLMs.

Not sure which is which, it seems to be applicable to both.

If it’s like GDPR, it applies to the citizens currently residing in the country, the location of the company or servers do not matter. Now if Imgur doesn’t have anyone there, no business happening and the website is already blocked, I don’t think they have much leverage.

From the article

Marceau’s talent of mimicry also may have saved his own life during the war, when he ran into a unit of 30 German soldiers, Singer writes. The mimic pretended to be an advance guard of a larger French force and convinced the Germans to retreat

Your employment was removed

Your work caused a problem with your default job setting, so it was reset to Microsoft Copilot.

They recognize there is slavery in Xinjiang, that seems better than the average ml user.

There’s no sizable USA conservative group who think Charlie Kirk was far right? It seems there’s quite a gap between socially liberal and Charlie Kirk.

On MMOs, trying not to sound like a kid, even though I was a kid, so I could join groups of cool people and guilds. Learned a lot of American lingo on Reddit.

What about tabi socks and setta?

Step 1: cut a hole in the sock

I have been playing acoustic guitar since childhood. I like when I listen to a piece that marvels me, then I work on it a few minutes every day for months, and eventually I start to render part of it good enough that I can find the same pleasure as listening but from the other side. One of my current study subject is Prelude n⁰1 by Heitor Villa-Lobos. https://youtu.be/Pmry5uquwDI

Isn’t the phone less private than an encrypted app?

Yeah, that’s the one I am fearing, the enshitification of Whatsapp, I think it already happened in some countries.

What if the platform you use with your relatives suddenly requires this?

As of 7 September 2025, there are 7,052,247 articles in the English Wikipedia containing over 4.9 billion words (giving a mean of about 706 words per article). The total number of pages is 63,983,130. Articles make up 11.02 percent of all pages on Wikipedia. As of 16 October 2024, the size of the current version including all articles compressed is about 24.05 GB without media. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Size_of_Wikipedia

The following graphic illustrates how large the English Wikipedia might be if the articles (without images and other multimedia content) were to be printed and bound in book form with a format similar to Encyclopædia Britannica. Each volume is assumed to be 25 cm (9.8 in) tall, 5 cm (2.0 in) thick, and containing 1,600,000 words or 8,000,000 characters. The size of this illustration is based upon the live article count manually adjusted by the average word count on an irregular basis on a user subpage of the graphic’s creator Tompw. The growth rate is approximately one full volume every three days if the increase in average article size isn’t accounted for over time. The print volumes as shown in the illustration would take up just over 9.34 m3 (330 cu ft) in total volume.

I believe Lemmy is quite smaller than Mastodon (hence it is not even mentioned on the diagram), so it’s probably a Mastodon instance.
