A new cold war effectively, but with the goal of cementing local power.

Movies are just as bad with the editing. They're way too fucking long. Wake up dead man? I feel like 30-45m could be cut and it'd be good. Why is One Battle after another almost 3 hours? Is there a competition to try to beat the n

Gtk makes that simple python program way more complex since it'll need more than pure-python dependencies. It's really a huge pain point in python. Pure python dependencies are amazingly easy to use, but there's a lot of pack

How long ago were you having issues? That was changed in go 1.13.

I'm of the opinion that mocks should be provided by the thing that you're mocking. That is, if you are wanting to mock out a service, the mock should be owned by the service that is being mocked. And then it should be part of that

For now. With Google blocking ad block ability on their browsers, what's to stop them from blocking ad blockers in their OS?

Don't forget you can use AI to turn a 50 word blog post into a 2,000 word one!

The problem isn't that AI makes obtuse documentation usable. It's that it makes good documentation unread . There's a lot of good documentation where you learn more about the context of how or why something is done a certain

It's why the 3 branches of government worked so well for the US for so long. They each want to protect themselves, and are effectively at odds with each other unless there is almost universal agreement on something. However that has co

There's money to be made on arbitration of orphan crushing! If I don't do it someone else will.

CGI is still bad tbh. Look at all the boring stuff produced for Marvel.

Interesting. I don't know if you intended it, but algorithm free means no recommendations to me - even no recommended videos alongside existing videos. You want a video? You have to search for something. I think that is a surprisingly

There are indeed actors who only respect might. That is not universal. Preaching might is right is also not universal. It is still important to have might even if you aren't in that camp because inevitably you will run into people with

When only some things have icons, it's almost like a flag that these things are more special/useful/used. I think that is by far more useful than everything having an icon that you have to think about (or see the text next

Modern streaming is the same thing, except it's hidden under the illusion of choice.

If you're using Firefox or run Linux, you won't be getting the stream quality you have paid for.

AI does the exact same thing in my experience. First try is not right. Nor the second. If you're lucky the third might. At that point I'd rather look at SO

That's also rather shit, unless you're using a prescribed browser and operating system. We've rebuilt cable boxes, but somehow they're even shittier than before.

AI pulls its answers from stack overflow. What will happen when SO is gone? When the problems go beyond the corpus the AI was trained on?

by fireflash38 10mo ago
AI reminds me of combing through stackoverflow answers. The first one might work... Or it might not. Try again, find a different SO problem and answer. Maybe third times the charm... Except it's all via the chat bot and it isn't a

by fireflash38 10mo ago
My experience with using AI is that it's a glorified stack overflow copy paster. It'll even glue a handful of SO answers together! But then you run into classic SO problems... Like the first solution doesn't work. Nor the sec

Are you saying this like it's a good thing? Cause Altman is representative of everything wrong with SV.

Other commenters are raking Apple over the coals for bad experiences with MacOS. By the same token, Windows 11 is beyond awful. It's a complete buggy mess, never mind the secure boot restrictions.

Don't forget they will brand anything they don't like as porn/bad for children. Like gay people daring to exist.

The government chemically castrated him. Is that not bad enough?

Unless I'm an AI, I'm pretty sure "uv run" is the same number of characters as "python". So it's shorter. Also venvs are a translation layer already, changing path.

Do you think that it's free and available to anyone means it doesn't have any responsibility to users? Or have any responsibility for how it's used, or what it says?

I'd argue the biggest issue with concretely defining intelligence is that any attempts end up falling in two buckets: 1. "Too" Broad, which raises uncomfortable questions about non-human intelligence and how we as humans trea
