That would be a major red flag to me — a pointless, highly compressible stream of images that prove nothing in actuality but are easy to define. If your work is being confused with AI, think about why. I never confused Trevanian and Martin

That is the way enterprise software works as a system. It demands to be the central focus of everything. Workers want to route around these turbo productivity theater nonsense that could be replaced by a few K script that gates access to a

Looks like an incoherent AI created web page made of programming concepts and diagrams of nothing strung together. You can see how the structure is adorned by little guides like “see the x ->” and how the hierarchy of babble rises and fl

One fun thing I did once is use the custom elements API to make a custom tag <element-template>. When the page sees <element-template tag=what-name></element-template>, it looks inside, finds any <template><&

Maybe someday AI will find a bug in the code for the simulation of this universe and use it to solve whatever prompt the user put in front of it, so be careful what you wish for.

A lot of software engineering work is meaningless and you know it. It’s working in a team at the speed of the slowest member to duplicate some trivial cross-functional layer that’s already been solved thousands of times, it’s telling yourse

If a person truly, really, honestly wants to kill soemone then they will be dead. The benefit of the Swiss cheese model is that most people who have that level of focus tend to be producing benefits to their lives somewhere else.

Very frankly, I’m assuming that you typed something sloppy into AI and asked it to make a big project and a big web page for it, and now you have little or no idea what it did, except that it strung programming concepts together.

The only design that can’t really be faked nowadays is large printed uppercase with misspellings and nearly incoherent grammar on a white paper taped carefully to a cubicle divider.

Instead of replacing the executable, couldn’t it be wrapped and augmented, so it’s just running payload in the background with the original permissions and keychain access? It does seem pretty bad.

I shouldn’t, but: F1 = x^3y^3z + 3x^2y^4 + 3x^2y^2z + 7xy^3 + 3xyz + 4y^2 + z F2 = 3x^3y^2z + 9x^2y^3 + 6x^2yz + 12xy^2 + 3xz + y F3 = -x^3z - 3x^2y + 2x That’s the counterexample. Low integer coefficients, power 7 in three variables. If so

Okay. So what does this overturn, intuitively? Can we no longer assume that functions are differentiable at certain points, or something?
