Yes, they are. And a pain in the ass when a dev can't get the package syntax right to import cjs when appropriate, but claim to support both targets. I literally patch hcaptcha locally to be able to build with it.

yeah, and the bigger problem (and why regulation is necessary for other dangerous fads) is that PEOPLE ARE STUPID and BELIEVE EVERYTHING THEY ARE TOLD. So AI grifter techbros come along and tell people about how "human" these thin

Please release source: - packages - kernel - build for the iso without openness, there's no way I'll trust some arbitrary iso on GitHub - 'tis a good way to have a bad time I was mostly interested in how it's built, what

Mostly hype from the grifter bros making billions off of llms and their promises for the future, as well as bullshit like "this model produces perfect code, no bugs, no hallucinations" It's overconfidence from sycophants who

some dimwit neighbor probably started this because they didn't like how it looked - how petty, and now, the one thing this guy had is gone well done, asshat

1. many modern smartphones can be configured (and are configured, by default) to listen for keywords like "ok google" to start a search. So if this is enabled, then technically, yes, your phone is always listening 2. I think that

neat! I haven't written cpp in many many years, but if I did, I'd likely use this.

I love the bit where Klarna has to rehire their staff because AI doesn't meet expectations. I'm less fond of the bold statement: """ The jobs most affected by AI share some commonalities, said Zarifhonarvar. They ar

welp, now i can't go to nytimes because of dumbass bot detection methods that flag me this is the end-game for ai - when every site fights to keep you out, they're all equally useless

you shouldn't - it was "the worst time to get a job" when I graduated in the late 90s too there are a lot of factors involved, and AI is likely facilitating some of the bad behavior, but the problem seems to always come back

Companies only hiring people with experience is far from a new problem. Back in the late 90s, I struggled to get my first job that actually used my studied skills. Yes, I had a job - delivering pizza - but I was desperately trying to get a

Disagree. I'd say it's more akin to learning vim, where there's a fairly steep learning curve at the outset, with huge rewards down the line. Yes, initial install can take a while. Yes, system updates take longer when built t

No Worktrees are unnecessary complexity when you could just clone twice. You can clone from a local repo too, then change upstream, if bandwidth is an issue. Worktrees are bullshit.

Stop flogging the dead horse and do something productive instead? Does this system really need to implode before people recognize what a dead end llms are?

the sad part is how people find "companionship" from the "bag of words" simply using math to predict the next likely word, without any understanding, as it's always been i still blame the ai hype-bro grifters who ar

Honestly, the people hyping up AIs as being "all that" are to blame here. If regular people understood just how stupid the "bag of words" is, they wouldn't pay so much attention to it. But they're told every da

I don't see how replacing uses of classes with selection by id is an improvement - it achieves the same result, but now that "class" can only be used in one place - might as well have used inline styles if css classes are &qu

Can't wait for someone to exploit a prompt and defeat their comical anti-corruption measure. Hidden text in a pdf should do it. Still need a human to oversee that, eh.

He shouldn't be. MS might be one of the few to survive the looming ai bust, being divested in other stuff.

I inverted most of my life, having started 3d gaming with a flight-sim-lile experience on Descent. I painstakingly switched to The Wrong Way on a recommendation from a friend, specifically to be more competitive in quake live. It took at le

No. Just please no. At best this is a hijacked Linux distro. At worst, it's an app no-one wants, marketing itself as an operating system.

I review code based on what's there. When I've reviewed ai-generated code, I always find issues. Usually subtle bugs that would just suck to track down. Sometimes glaring bugs that would break things immediately. Not once have I s

And yet... Both are equally stupid. Using degrees of shitness to declare your wide the winner just means everyone lost.

have you tried rustdesk? I've used teamviewer and anydesk, extensively, but have settled on rustdesk on my personal machine - works well, can run self-hosted or from the cloud.

top of the list, sindresorhus - watch out. Yes, he does opensource work. No, he doesn't play well with others. I've had run-ins before, found actual bugs and he just stands firm on his pedestal. it's at the point where if i s

Cool idea, but probably not that useful outside the US, where most people don't waste food like Americans do, at least, that's what's portrayed on tv and movies from America. We're always appalled at the giant spreads of
