> Claudish I do wonder why a frontier model does this to be honest. It still does good coding wise, but it seems strange to me. r/Claude is full of "load bearing" jokes in every thread.

I don't mind self-ads especially if its like "Hey we're releasing this new movie in 2 weeks, are you aware?" just so long as I can skip them after the first time, and they are pre-cached when I open the app so you can do

2010s to 2020s code has been bad. We used to have 100% natively compiled apps, now everything is a Chrome browser wrapped JavaScript abomination, and before anyone assumes I hate JavaScript, I love doing front-end web development, and backe

> a human artist would do better. Except we have all seen really awful human made posters long before AI. People are just upset just to be upset at this point. Code was nosediving before AI badly.

"Beany can be bad" "LGPL" I mean, LGPL isn't THAT bad, but made me chuckle.

Which projects still use BeanShell? I have not heard of BeanShell since... idk 2012? or something, who is maintaining it as well, I would hope someone didn't just fork it and Oracle owns the rights to it somehow? Was Sun fully involved

The law, as practiced in the United States, is Schrodinger's law, it magically changes if you observe it. As an example, if me and 10 others commit the same crime, in the same city, get caught by the same cop, processed by the same jud

> In the post-AGI economy I'm not saying they are saying they achieved it, but calling this economy post-AGI when AGI isn't a thing, that's wild to me. AGI is well defined, there's an entire book written that defines

Weird claim about us living in a post-AGI world, no company has shown true AGI yet.

Sounds like an exploit took the credentials needed to extract the code, makes me wonder if a Ubikey + SSL cert for git access would have prevented the entire leak.

What's wild is I was looking at the language's home page again, and looking to find their GitHub, the first GitHub link I noticed, is the GitHub sponsors link. I don't mind supporting a project like this, but this is a bit ex

Well, I've been in reverse engineering circles since 2007... Including Apple related ones, I don't have any issue with AI being used to clean-room a reverse engineering session, but by virtue of having been a former employee in an

Apple would have to be the only company around and by the time Apple “loses” in court its too late.

My kingdom to have RAD developer tools be the norm again. I don't want yet another website as an app, or website bundled in a Chrome fork as an app. You could have built the same thing in VB6 or Delphi with less effort and used less of

I'm wondering if Google intends to drop the next major version of Gemini Pro as a total bombshell drop to make Anthropic and OpenAI panic. They seem to be taking their sweet time on frontier model updates.

Video games are a good example of an area where the pricing makes no sense. Inflation has risen, and they make like $20 or whatever off a brand new game in 1990s bucks. Video game prices will go up more and more, it also kind of explains to

You don't 100% need them to release it, there's projects like Skip: https://skip.dev/ Which was open sourced sometime back, and builds iOS and Android apps, which is really neat, because it means your Android app&

I don’t get no respect. I don’t get no respect at all. I say to the guy, “That looks load-bearing.” He looks at me like I just insulted his mother. “What the hell does that even mean?” This is the same guy who asked me to rebuild Twitter. N

Abolish copyright and make it less ridiculous. Sampling music was never a thing that required royalties until the 1990s when I guess someone got angry that rappers were making money off their sampled music. Its insane to me. Make it illegal
