Only if you don't then post about it on social media

I know a few trails that I'd like to add to Open Street Maps because they're not included but I don't know how to do it. Can anyone do it or do I need to be verified in some way first?

I'd say that confessing a good deed anonymously online barely violates the intent of intoku. You don't really get any credit for it because nobody will remember.

Eh, not really. Maybe it would be different if I had a big client that I was dependent on but when working for private individuals they're not really in the position to boss me around. I can quite easily just refuse the work and leave if they start making demands we originally didn't agree to.

I doubt that a truly selfless act of charity exists. Even if you're just giving money away anonymously you're still probably feeling good about it and I don't think there's anything wrong with that. That's not really what my question was about.

In my case, a lot of it comes from my mountain biking hobby. I like doing unauthorized trail maintenance - sawing fallen trees off the path, laying logs over streams and mud pits so I (and others) can cross with dry feet. In winter, I sometimes ride the same trail back and forth multiple times so my fatbike tires can flatten the snow, which then freezes overnight into a perfect surface for dog walkers to walk on.

In my job, I occasionally spend my own time improving something beyond what the customer is paying me for.

At my gym, I always fill the water bucket in the sauna for the next person.

Once I also bought the supplies and fixed a hole in a fence that's meant to keep moose and deer from walking onto the highway.

Being my own boss is the greatest benefit of them all but sure comes with its downsides too.

It’s more about what I don’t buy - which is a lot. For most of my adult life, I’ve lived well below my means and invested everything I’ve saved. Most people don’t save at all, let alone invest.

My cousin, for example, goes on expensive vacations like the ones you described several times a year. They also drive a nice new BMW. Yet when I recently quoted them €500 for some renovation work, they asked if they could split the payment over a few months because they couldn’t come up with the money all at once.

Suffice it to say, I don’t see vacations as a sign of wealth.

I don’t think you can tell without looking into their finances. For some, a big house and a couple of new cars signal wealth, but to me, they’re more likely signs of debt and poor financial judgment.

Personally, I live in a small, 75-year-old house, drive a 17-year-old pickup truck, and walk around in old clothes that were never in fashion to begin with. Yet I know for certain that my financial situation is far better than that of the average person in my country. You’d never be able to gauge my true wealth from my appearance or spending habits.

I don't think it's that. LLM's very much are actual AI. Most people just take that term to mean something more than that when it actually doesn't. A simple chess engine is an AI as well.

Lemmy culture? Nothing, lacks diversity. I often feel like I'm just talking to the same guy. Very rare to read views that don't align with the groupthink.

EDIT: Okay, one thing that came to mind is that I can talk about autistic stuff that I do and nobody seems to question/judge it.

I don't think this is about LLM's. That's not synonymous with AI.
