Do you see any reason to think enough iterations of random nodes in a large enough network could result in emergent conscious intelligence?

Or are you more of a spiritualist than a materialist when it comes to the mind?

You know what's actually silly? GIMP.

Krita, fantastic? That comment might've convinced someone who hasn't tried it. It does not convince me.

The fact that you mention "Kdenlive" and Inkscape along with Krita makes me expect the two others to be absolute dogshit.

Intuitiveness is objective and measurable, and I'm very certain that Photoshop would demolish GIMP if a test was done.

Because creative FOSS is usually terrible, their methods demolish the flow of an average creative worker with constant "No, it doesn't work like that "-type interruptions.

Intuitive functionality is never a priority and never done right. If anything it seems to be viewed as sacriliege to sacrifice clean and simple code for the base instincts of an ignorant user.

GIMP being free to just download from their site, and still being used far less (even by novices) than paid or pirated Photoshop really tells the whole story.

The average lemmy user compared to the general public is just far more used to trading away quality to stay with Free and Open-Source Software, to the point of sometimes apparently being blind to the mainstream option's appeal.

Java devs are prima mental gymnasticists, always able to make anything make sense.

I didn't expect this thread to be anywhere near this good

Botany should not have borrowed the word berry.

I am of the opinion that "a small, sweet, edible fruit" is closer to the right definition for the word, and that botanists' decision to appropriate the word for a redefined purpose was inappropriate and unnecessary.
