duolingo. WHAT THE FUCK

I would like to bring your attention to two fundraisers that are near and dear to my heart.

@elhamhamdan-gaza is a young woman trying to survive in Gaza with her family. She was a top student at university until October 2023, when she and her family were displaced from their home in Khan Younis and forced to flee to Rafah. After the invasion in Rafah, they returned to their home in Khan Younis only to find it burned. They had no choice but to live in it. Elham and her family desperately need funds for blankets and clothes, because winter is here and nights in Gaza are very cold right now.

Elham's campaign is very low on funds! So far they have only been able to raise £594 and they desperately need more support. Please donate to them if you are able, and share this post and campaign with as many people as you can.

This campaign was verified by the Butterfly Effect Project (instagram) and is number 1180 on their spreadsheet, which you can access through the link on their instagram profile.

Secondly, @drdarine is a young woman who is a medical student in Gaza. Despite being displaced and suffering hardships we can only imagine, Darine is continuing her studies and helping out others in the refugee camps and shelters in southern Gaza. Her family consists of seven people, one of them being my friend @dawoudi who is selflessly and unfailingly helping many other families in Gaza by verifying their fundraisers and promoting them on Tumblr. Everyday I see more campaigns added that he has verified, providing an important service to the many families in Gaza that need our help.

Darine's family has been fundraising since February, which is almost ten months! Despite that, they have only been able to raise $5,765, 19% of their goal. Progress on their campaign is extremely slow, often needing to wait multiple days for another donation to come in. We can do better than that.

This campaign was vetted by @gazavetters, and is number 15 on their spreadsheet, which you can find in the pinned post on their profile.

Please support these fundraisers! Thank you!

In today’s round of “Generative AI does not do the things you think it does”

Paypal has completely fucked their customer service interface by replacing any… y’know… email tech support options with a Message Center AI

Now

I invite you to pause for 30 seconds and think of the simplest, most basic, least plausible way an AI could possibly fuck up something like filing a bug report

Just give it a minute

The simplest, most ridiculous way to fuck it up

Hold it in your mind

Ready?

The LANGUAGE

It changed the language in the browser to Spanish

And then to German, and addressed me as Dr Hellmut

As thrilled as I am to participate in identity fraud and obtain a degree, doing it in German isn’t ideal given that I do not speak German

I fear this will make it hard to be convincing

It also didn’t solve my problem (“I would like to submit a bug report”) but I genuinely did not expect it could fuck up the language we were speaking

Generative AI out here truly testing the boundaries of what we thought was possible by fucking up on whole new fundamental levels

duolingo can go die i need another language learning app or something (╬ Ò﹏Ó)

The Duolingo blog has given me my new absolute favourite German word:

das Kopfkino

Just discovered that Frag = Ask in German.

As a transformers fan who's down bad for fictional robots and knows some Cybertronian terms, that sentence was absolutely foul to read.

I did it let’s go
