If I set a charge limit to 80%, is it still bad to let it fall below 20%? Would the depth of discharge only be 60?
Thank you for the explanation. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Appreciate the honesty that you're unsure 😁
I guess I will just trust that Apple knows what they're doing with their own hardware and software and just use it how I want rather than try and babysit the battery 😂
Thanks, have a good Sunday! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Always heard? This has not been the case for over 15 years. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
There is the is thing called trickle charging, basically, the battery shuts of charging when it is full, then loses one percent, then gains it back, etc in an infinite cycle. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
You are correct, but that was incorrect information that was/is widely believed to be correct. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Yes, if your 85% is causing you to regularly drop below 20 you're likely worse off than if you were letting it charge to 100. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
I thought letting your phone battery drain fully before charging was good for it. Fuck. Thanks for the info. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
The BMS in your phone's battery doesn't actually let you charge over 100%.
Deep charge cycles or letting your phone die completely are pretty much the only thing you can do to damage your battery nowadays. Phones even have built in protections for charging when the battery is too hot or cold. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
You tell me everything I need to know by lacking the reading comprehension of a 5th grader. You didn't read or address anything I just wrote and you're going to criticize me again... Jesus Christ. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
I already addressed all of that. If you wanted to have an actual discussion you should have read what I wrote instead of just trying to hide it from everyone else. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Sometimes you can get caught out when you're away from home and have used your phone more than expected, especially as your phone gets older and the battery is less fresh. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
NiCad batteries had a memory effect. For Li-ion, it's best to always stay between 20% and 80%, and to charge slowly to avoid heat degradation. Of course that's not always practical for all use cases. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

This is sort of the conundrum of the freelancer market as well. Most of the content that you'd get out of the system would need to be usable for it to really affect the market.
If you need words to fill a page so that you can get SEO ranked and most people going to your site will ignore it then that's fit for purpose.
If you need it to reorganize content that you've created it *might be* fit for purpose.
If you need it to understand the semantics of the words & phrases and synthesize thought it's absolutely not fit for purpose. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
My uncle needed a new logo made for his landscaping business, he just kept asking Bing to generate a logo for him for like 20 minutes until he got one that he didn’t need to edit.
Honestly, I’m genuinely shocked how good it came out and sucks that the money didn’t go to a designer, but also, it’s still genuinely amazing. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

Yeah everytime people compared AI to NFTs or Crypto I cringe. I can't remember the last time NFTs or Crypto did anything for me but I use AI everyday in my job and hobbies.

There are a few key words that ChatGPT likes to use more so than a real person. The prevalence of those words in research papers has skyrocketed this year.
We’re truly making a mess that’s going to be very hard to clean up…
So many college students are trying to use it to cheat on assignments too. The universities haven’t figured out a reliable way to detect people yet (aside from the morons that just copy paste). We’re actively going to be making less knowledgeable “experts.”
The quality of information will go way down because of sheer laziness | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Domain propagation works very fast nowadays. If any rogue chatbot wants to make up subdomains on obscure domains, it can. The only thing preventing it is that the established companies are still trying to maintain some legitimity and build up awareness. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
So you can't even write a good prompt? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
> Sierra Leone used it in 2018
I decided to fact check this one since it's a concrete claim and ["Sierra Leone government denies the role of blockchain in its recent election"](https://techcrunch.com/2018/03/19/sierra-leone-government-denies-the-role-of-blockchain-in-its-recent-election/). | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Yeah most criticisms of chatGPT on this subreddit have more to do with the user and their promoting skills, not the actual capabilities of the AI.
It’s an AI trained to write literally anything asked of it, of course you need to be more specific if you want it to search the web and provide sources. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
ChatGPT 5 will fake time. We’ll be truly fucked. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
It's so obvious when copy is generated by LLMs. I lose all respect for the author/publication/website when I see it, which is frequently.
If you're going to use LLMs to create copy, you should at least have the decency to treat it as a rough draft and not just publish it right away. I suppose many people don't yet recognize the language patterns as easily, but that time will come. The same with images, the first time I saw AI images I thought they looked amazing, but now they mostly just look like shit. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
I do. I feel like OpenAI is pushing that twice as hard to try and convince me it's better. It's not. I've used 4 almost everyday since it came out. I know what to expect from ChatGPT... Whatever 4o is doing... Yeah I'm not liking it. It might be "better" at somethings but it's far from what 4 is. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Because half of the posts complaining are usually outdated.
Almost every time people post the prompts that gave them bad results, I'll plug it into an LLM and get wonderful and correct answers. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

True. But with all media, especially AI spewings, everyone has to remember to use our brains! Is this plausible? Do these references check out? Really?

It’s not just googles fault, it’s also the way online advertising works. You can get more for ads on a page where people stay longer and actively engage longer.

Thanks, I appreciate that. To be clear, I'm actualy leaving the freelance world behind, finally, ha. Which should give you some indication of how it's been going up to this point.
A lot of the clients are coming back - but I mean like, in the last two months or so. So I think whoever is left is going to have an okay stretch - until this or something like it happens again, of course.
I went through this shit once with Panda, where everything suddenly changed literally overnight. I don't want to do it again. I could see the direction this was headed in - which is why I started applying for non-freelance jobs towards the end of last year. I happened to land one now and there are clients I'll still work with just because I like them and I want to help them out - but good luck to the rest.
EDIT: If shit is going to go sideways again, I at least want someone to have to pay me unemployment and stuff on the way out the door. I don't want to deal with people who disappear in the night. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
That's actually very good news. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
A lot of those sites are basically dead unless you'd spent a long time building up private clients who only work with you and maybe a few other people. And even a lot of those people were gone for a long while, in my experience. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
I don’t know why you got down-voted. I’ve used the OpenAI API to get ChatGPT4 to label images for me for training. My request was a little more specialized, and the prompt a little more complicated but it did a great job.
Ref: https://cookbook.openai.com/examples/tag_caption_images_with_gpt4v
I read people’s frustrations and it all sounds so dismissive. LLMs are great tools, but they’re not magical oracles. Sometimes when I’m using Github Co-pilot I’m happy when we get in a rhythm and it seems like it realizes what I want it to do, and almost thinking ahead. However, it’s still just a fancy autocomplete. Coding uses a lower default temperature, as its more useful for refactoring. I’ve played around with just feeding it the first few lines from online coding docs.
Example: https://scikit-learn.org/stable/auto_examples/linear_model/plot_ols.html#sphx-glr-auto-examples-linear-model-plot-ols-py
After giving it the first line or two it just keeps suggesting the next line almost always verbatim. Though I wonder if it’s because everyone steals and modifies code enough to get it to work, so it just learns the patterns.
If I want more creative solutions, I’ll opt for an open-source LLM and just crank the temperature up. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

There's going to be a lot of novel and emergent patterns of "thought" coming out of these models that will have no human analogue (even the "hallucination" thing isn't really at all like a human experiential hallucination, there are great arguments that it is more akin to confabulation) and that's great. But insisting on using humanity as a benchmark either for or against it is what is a distraction. At best we can draw comparisons to better understand what it is doing. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
“Write me a paragraph with citations” you asked for a received it. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
I’m a bit confused about the use of the technology you envision that doesn’t result in the loss of jobs?
The question we need to ask is a social one, not an economic one.
If tools become so efficient that there aren’t enough jobs for all humans to work for a living, we have an obligation to change the societal structure to one that having a job is no longer a necessity to live.
I don’t understand what alternative you see in a way to responsibly use AI without it reducing the need of many worker class jobs. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

Well they have made massive strides with their GPT-4o model with realtime responses and ability to take in a lot of types of inputs. I don’t know how much faster you’re expecting them to advance. They’re more interested in actually providing meaningful improvement rather than iterating a number on their model | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Or just online news sites/magazines will become more popular as people lose trust in generic content. A lot of magazines basically just post all of their content on their website and put it behind a paywall now (which is very easy to bypass). | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

> If you're going to use LLMs to create copy, you should at least have the decency to treat it as a rough draft and not just publish it right away.
From what I can tell, this is what a lot of people just spent the last year learning. And so now they're going to come back to freelancers, at least temporarily, until they can figure out how to make this not a problem anymore.
I have one client in particular - he's a sweet guy, but he talks too much - who basically told me his POV. Right now, he can't figure out how to inexpensively get 100 pieces of quality content for his own clients on a monthly basis. So he turns to people like me, and sometimes me specifically, because quality is the most important thing for him at the moment.
He literally said that his goal is to figure out how, company wide, to produce 10,000 pieces of content for his own clients, every single month. That's his endgame. That's not a point he's going to get to with freelancers charging even halfway decent rates. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
It's typically less a flaunting of wealth, and more an active investment in community. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
The more normal people use and read ChatGPT responses, the more we get accustomed to its robotic style.
While this is bad news for freelancers for those who can write well + use ChatGPT, they will 10x their output. It’s not all downside.
I’m seeing this myself. I get ChatGPT to write the abroad framework, then I edit and edit and edit.

Remember when we had shows and movies about the future, and everyone lived life doing what they wanted because robots did all the jobs no one wanted to do?
Well, now we have people losing jobs they enjoy, to technology they have no control over, and they don't get a paycheck anymore. They don't get to say "well, robots took my job, time for an early retirement!" because there's no fallback for that. There's no safety net in place for that, when it was implied forever there would be.
AI isn't taking over chores, or menial labor, or hell AI isn't even taking over cashiers because they still have to have a live person come over every 5 seconds because the machine can't handle a count of bananas that isn't multiples of 4. AI is taking over writing, and drawing, and all the stuff people do for fun as hobbies that they turn into a living, things that they go to school for for 4+ years and pay money to be successful at, while they have to work their minimum wage jobs in one of 48 states where that isn't even enough to make rent let alone food, housing, bills, and anything to make life worth living.
So we need to create that economic net for people losing their jobs BEFORE we replace them, not after. There needs to be regulation on corporate use of AI so that billionaires aren't once again making life miserable to live. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
