There is no moral equivalence, save that indoctrinated hatred and prejudice are part of the oral and written doctrine on one side only. As westerners we assume peace is the goal, but peace is the stated goal and part of the doctrine for... again, one side only.

Comment What does ChatGPT say? (Score 2) 76

"GitHub Copilot, an AI-powered coding assistant, has shown potential in improving code quality based on recent studies and user feedback. Research highlights that it enhances several aspects of code quality, including readability, reusability, maintainability, conciseness, and resilience. Developers reported feeling more confident in their work when using Copilot, thanks to its ability to provide clean, error-resilient, and easily understandable code. These qualities make debugging and collaboration more efficient. Specifically, tools like GitHub Copilot Chat, which integrates directly into IDEs, help streamline coding processes. Developers who used Copilot Chat completed code reviews 15% faster and found their reviews to be more actionable compared to traditional methods. Additionally, the assistant helps users maintain focus and reduces frustration, particularly for repetitive or research-intensive tasks However, critiques exist. Some studies suggest that while Copilot speeds up development, it doesn't always guarantee flawless output, and users must still review and adapt its suggestions carefully. In summary, GitHub Copilot appears to boost both productivity and code quality, though it works best when paired with human oversight to address its occasional shortcomings.

Comment Carbon based fuel production uses tons of energy (Score 1) 222

Everyone needs to see this cheesy hilarious explainer vid. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3F... The extraction, transport, refining and delivery of crude oil uses shockingly large amounts of energy. After delivery use of petroleum fuels is only about 30% efficient and the rest goes into creating waste heat. Every bit of carbon fuel we don't extract actually has has a positive multiplier in how much carbon doesn't make it into our atmosphere.
