There's nothing a meaningless document can do when the AI is not aligned in the first place.

Given the prompt and a random string generator, would the LLM still produce a game? Presumably yes. In that case I'm not quite sure that the dog here has any real involvement. It's could be replaced with the yes command.

Objecting to murder is still politics, no? In fact, US republicans and democrats can't seem to agree who is fine to murder. Republicans say that abortions are murder, but often also that prisoner executions are fine. Democrats tend to

If you compile from source, but your distro is shipping library version that is incompatible with the app, you're still screwed. This is why flatpaks/snaps/app images have been taking off. Devs don't have time for bugs c

No, just no. Using system/distro packages is great when you're writing server software and need your base system to be stable. But, for software distributed to users, this model fails hard. You generally need to ship across OSs, O

It's kind of funny, but I had the exact opposite experience. I couldn't get VSCode to reliably format Typescript/React code across several projects. Some would work and others would not. Sometimes it would format, but with wr

Considering how many people will defend C++ compilers bending over backwards to exploit some accidental undefined behaviour with "but it's fast though" then yeah, that's not an inaccurate assessment.

I think there's certainly some blame that falls on the engineers at Facebook. But, in my experience, if you put any number of developers in a room, noone is going to come up with "let's help scam the elderly". That requi

It's not really a tax though. Other platforms offer a lower percentage (Epic: 0% up to 1000000 copies sold and 12% above) and yet the prices on Epic aren't cheaper than on steam. If the final price doesn't change based on the

Freedom is dead when a single implementation is replaced with several competing implementations implementing an open standard.

And this is one of the disadvantages of JSX. The snippets you posted are NOT identical. JSX (react flavor) is lazy. <My component> is not rendered/evaluated until it's needed. You can't just call a react component. It&#

There's no indication that an AGI mind will adopt human-like values. Nor that the smarter something gets, the more benevolent it is. The smartest humans built the atom bomb. Not that human values are perfectly benevolent. We slaughter

What do you mean by whom? This conversation isn't about Mickey Mouse. Epstein was convicted for trafficking (eg. coercing/forcing) women.

by dminik 1y ago
If the victim really was coerced/forced, then there is no wordplay going on here. No legal tricks. No abuse of the legal system. We're talking about sex trafficking, which we know did occur and Epstein was convicted of. Twice. And

Ok, but surely there are more important thing going on there than the wording. It feels like Stallman wants to defend his friend, but doesn't really have any way to do that. So, instead, he pivots to pedantry. Like ok, assuming that Ma

by dminik 1y ago
Ok, I'm confused here. I had a look at what Stallman said and what Minsky allegedly did. Apparently, Minsky had sex with one of Epstein's girls, who later said she was forced into it. Now, his wife denies the allegation, as she wa

Because of GNOME's insistence on not implementing Server Side Decorations, you can't not depend on libadwaita. This is what I imagine pull in all of the GTK dependencies.

I've not explored every program domain, but in general I see two kinds of program memory access patterns. The first is a fairly generic input -> transform -> output. This is your generic request handler for instance. You receive

I know what you said. I just don't think it was interesting. If by idiomatic rust, you mean generic "unoptimized" Rust being slower than optimized C, then yeah. No shit. On a similar note, I don't think it's worth t

It takes some hubris to post "rust is consistently 10% slower than C" take and back it up with a page which shows a result 6:4 in Rusts favor.

by dminik 1y ago
The easiest* solution would be to do what rust does. You need to use & on both sides and error out on mismatch. Eg. fn foo(bar: &Bar) { ... } bar(&Baz) * This would be a breaking change, so a non-starter.

Tbh, at this point I would pay for paint.NET on Linux. Pinta is interesting, but the UI is terrible. Did we really have to remove the resize handles? They're there when adding shapes, but not when manipulating pixels/selection? Ha

I was under the impression that Inkscape explicitly doesn't follow the gnome guidelines. That's why every few months, there's a proposal to redesign it which trades usability for minimalism. Here's one I pulled from a ra

As far as I'm concerned, there are two main issues with profiles: 1. They're either unimplementable or useless (too many false positives and false negatives). I think this is pretty evident based on the fact that profiles have bee
