I also avoid apps. I tell everyone that I meet to avoid apps because the general population is going to drive us right into a future where there are no more web-based options and almost everything must be accessed through a separate app. Pe

I really dislike the name. Apparently: The name "Google Antigravity" was chosen to convey the idea of making the software development process more weightless. That's good because my arms were getting tired pushing code

And you're assuming war is not coming? That there will never be another war? Don't get me wrong, I'm anti-war, but that sounds like an unwise assumption to make given history. > If you walk around with a gun in your pocket

The charges were dropped not too long after this piece was written. It sounded unwarranted and it appears that it was decided to be unwarranted.

And this method of extracting money is only efficient within the current culture. It will not devolve to slop if people reject the slop. There sure are a lot of slop hogs at the moment though.

For me it's mostly the characters and the narratives that feel "less real" than they used to. Something about seeing the same actor, in the same role and doing the same things, but 30 years older doesn't really sell the

Sounds pretty similar to how I felt in middle school. I learned a lot while getting around their silly controls. I'm sure things are much more locked down today, but where there's a will there's a way!

Are people doing image generation really using these models much? I've generated a lot of images, but I always use ComfyUI with local models and custom workflows. I only have 8GB of VRAM and I can easily do 1000s of images per day if I

I don't think they're "sucking out souls" so much as people are giving them away willingly. No one taking notes in emacs has this problem. Why Goodnotes 6 and an iPad over org-mode and a laptop? I'm no longer intere

When I'm driving around town and I see that soooo many vehicles have a sticker on the back, or a license plate frame, or something that advertises for the place that they bought the car at. I do not understand this at all.

I'd imagine that even current models are aware of these "tricks". Does anyone have examples of this sort of meta-prompting working? It seems to me like it would just pollute the context so that you get a bit more "secret

IMO the take home assignment is trivial, even for non-game developers with zero Unity experience; maybe you don't need a take home assignment at all. I also think that asking people to "not use AI" when you have absolutely no
