It's not just the price, but also how "legitimate" the registrars are and how well they deal with abuse. Here's an anecdote: I know someone who insisted on using a .tk domain for legitimate business purposes for many yea

"Vibe coding" implies minimal to no human involvement. It doesn't matter how good of an engineer the person who typed the prompt was, they were not involved in writing or reviewing the code, so the end result will not reflect

I like how the page is actually struggling to load due to the sheer amount of bot activity on the PR. On a completely unrelated note, I wonder why Github is always down. Real mystery there.

No human has ever read or will ever read the PR description. No human has read or will ever read any of the code, nor was any human thought involved in its creation. Everything is performative now. As long as you just keep your eyes closed

ECC passively benefits everyone, even people who don't know what it is or why it's useful. Anyone can be a victim of random bit flips, it's not a targeted threat. Memory encryption, on the other hand, provides absolutely no b

The AI branding isn't aimed at consumers, it's aimed at investors. What consumers think about it is irrelevant. This isn't unique to tech, either. In recent years, I've started to notice all the advertising around me inc

BlackRock is one of the largest shareholders of Palantir. Larry Fink doesn't hide his support of Israel's war efforts. The proof is right there, you barely have to look for it. Of course, I'm sure none of this matters, becaus

If you really did spend days on research and methodology (which, to be clear, I'm not denying), that just makes it all the more disappointing that you decided to cap it all off with a long AI generated article. The article is what I&#x

Your analysis was so thorough, rigorous, and objective, that you couldn't be bothered to write it yourself. Do you genuinely believe an article written by AI defending itself is going to convince anyone who wasn't already on your

Why not name the project in question?

by bakugo 4mo ago
That's the philosophical argument. In practice, though, the effect of large unreviewed AI commits on the project and its users is likely to be the same regardless of whether those commits were prompted by a core developer or an outside

This would happen even if developers were paying, because a 100 billion dollar corporation like Cloudflare can always pay more. It has nothing to do with sustainability and everything to do with cashing out a huge payday, which seems to be

You're half right. Tech isn't what causes people to behave like this, but it does very much enable their behavior. Tech is what allows them to reach you and ruin your day with unprecedented efficiency. Before internet access becam

They won't, because forcing the file to be named after their product is an intentional marketing choice. Free advertising on every repo that has it.

I'm sorry, but you're calling the kettle black here. You made up a scenario in your head in which the developer decided to save time by using AI to generate thousands of lines of code instead of writing it themselves, but then a
