Tailscale is awesome. Alternatively if you’re more technically inclined you can make your own wireguard tailscale and all you need is to get a static IP for your home network. Wireguard will always be safer than each individual service.

As a westerner who lived in Asia for the past 2 decades I have unusual take on this.

Americans generally aren’t more stupid than anyone else but they have no face saving culture which acts as a useful bottleneck on social and information exchanges. Because of this Americans can easily subscribe and announce their beliefs even if theyre low effort conspiracies because they are not afraid of losing face for believing in something stupid.

Combined that with information flow that is too fast for most to even comprehend let alone keep up with means that Americans are quick to believe lies and don’t feel punished for doing so.

This is very different in face saving cultures like Asia where if you say or do something stupid you’ll have strong social consequences and even spiritual/religious ones if you’re a Buddhist.

The caveat here is why Europeans are a bit better than this? I’m not sure i hadn’t lived there for a while but I’d imagine that smaller countries are less susceptible to this issue as they can correct quicker and I think Europe does have a bit of face saving culture, well definitely more than the US.

TL;DR: Americans are stupid because they are shameless

Yes, eventually but even before that 1 senior accountant with AI assistant will take a position of 2, 5 or 10 accountants. That’ll really collapse accountant market and you shouldn’t get into it now. As a junior you will most certainly struggle. We actually already see this in software development.

Not to mention effects of AI in industries near accounting like better deterministic software and data pipelines.

Accounting is basically a dead career at this point of AI curve for junior accountants.

Take a backpacking trip with one of those places that get you a job at hostel for sleep and food. It’s a great way to travel around, explore and get to know yourself until you figure out what really interests you. It also connects you with variety of people for potential career and gives you perspective of how other people found their spark.

People often overlook this but having a genuine interest in your career subject is the key to sustainable success as you’ve probably noticed with your computer science studies.

The only danger here is getting trapped in a party loop but it’s easy to avoid if you have temperance and are mindful of your goals.

I spend at least a month in Japan every year and the tech there is great for the most part. All of the critical parts infrastructure tech is brilliant and incredibly stable.

The lack of risk taking is very noticeable though especially when it comes to contemporary software and UX. There just so much broken tech because everything moves so slowly - for example to pick up a reserved train tickets you need to bring the same physical card you made you payment with and thats the only way. So if you used a virtual card or forgot your card at home you’re screwed.

Yes it’s just styled sunscreen basically

Been there a few times. Very sad country.

Burmese a very friendly, hard working and welcoming people but there’s almost no infrastructure and the country can be quite dangerous. The islands are very beautiful and scuba diving there with live aboard boats used to be a hidden gem before the 2021 coup.

What decline? Chinese are so whipped CCP can do anything they want.

CCP is brutal against any form of resistance. China is the only developed country with firewall that censors normal every day words.

China is an absolute autocracy and everytime people advocate for it I can’t help but cringe. But hey did you see how developed they are - you can even pay with your fingerprint 🙄

Cost cutting. Lidar is cheaper now but was relative expensive and increased tech debt and maintenance. Also he legit thought that “human see good - then car see good too”. Tesla is being led by a literal idiot.

Also president having so much power was clearly never democratic to begin with as we can see it all play out now.

I disagree.

All bots and astroturfers had no problem getting 500 karma or whatever with one /r/funny repost. Which just meant new users can’t contribute and every subreddit is left with power users and trolls.

This would be even easier to game on Lemmy as it’s much more open and federated so getting 500 karma by a bot would be super easy.

The only reliable way to moderate is manual review with technical fingerprint. I work in online fraud detection.

I’ve recently started to blindly learn instruments without any tutorials just basic overview and it’s so much more fun! It’s like playing video games without wikis and guides - great if youre not in a rush anywhere

Dude just google it there are many papers already. Can’t be bothered wirh ludites like you bye

What are you even on about tin foil. Waymos are on the road - how is this data doctored? You can literally see that it’s safer than human driving in this exact environment.

Best part of having hobbies is that you don’t need to be good!

Idiocracy is at least more entertaining

data > your personal anecdotes. Get real dude.
