AI benefits from tools to verify its halucinations. That's much easier in a typed and compiled language. Then have a language that can't be monkey patched at runtime and the confidence increases even more. If you mean "easy t

Why was the informative title updated to this, sorry to say, shit? Not every client displays arbitrary parts of the paths. Not even inquotes to distance it from the submitter. 0/10 improvement

It doesn't crash. Just the UI is completely unresponsive until I switch to another app and back. It's weird.

Tried it for a first time and it took five minutes for a major bug to appear - UI fully freezing. I thought it was only scrolling that froze at first, but tried it again (easy to reproduce), and it's the whole UI. Switching apps makes

Github is going around boasting how many PRs they generate a day with Copilot with very limited human input. Whether that's true or not, it might have effect.

Dinner reservations is a weird one. I have never heard of this concept where they would id you while you are being seated. Maybe there are super exclusive restaurants I'm oblivious to? But even so, roughly 100% of dinner reservations c

Thanks Chrome for ruining web in yet another way. LRU is THE default for virtually every windowed and tabbed application, then Chrome comes and fucks it up. Now we have a video talking about a "fix", and likely not a single user i

Switching tabs doesn't work like you would expect in Opera for example. The order of tabs gets shuffled randomly. It's completely broken. I downgraded to a version where it had worked, stuck with that for a while. When I complaine

Unfortunate that they can't fix tab switching they broke 2~3 years ago. It's fully broken, on every platform, one of the main interactions with the browser. Doubt there's actually "a team".

It's a cool idea, but major bugs are being introduced and then ignored. Virtually unusable and I would not recommend it.

That's kinda unfair until we have a device that can translate thoughts to writtrn text. Both from time and energy perspective. Though my guess would be we'd only win the energy contest and many of us would fail at free-styling a w
