“We block slop” - why does a git host care about the quality of code that I choose to produce? As long as it’s within bandwidth and storage quota, why the hell should they care? “Slop” is ambiguous and ill-defined. This is ideological anti

I’m confused. I’ve been to most of the countries in Europe, I’ve been to Russia, China, Thailand, Japan, North and South Korea, USA/Canada/Mexico. What am I missing? I’m perplexed by your reply.

Your tax money is actively engaged in a war, so at least one of your claims is false. Also, many countries that aren’t well-run also have roads, so there goes another one. https://www.government.nl/themes/international

Do you live in Singapore, which this set of items perfectly describes? In Singapore, the state decides what media you are allowed to receive, to preserve the continuity of the state at your expense. In Singapore, you can be jailed for dis

No government in any place is for the people that aren’t the people that comprise the government. They will, of course, all tell you otherwise.

It’s only obvious slop to you. Most people have never used gen AI and have no experience or skills detecting it.

Have definitely used this one, or “my SIM card doesn’t work in this country”. My other lie is “I don’t carry cards.” Works best whilst holding up a Benjamin.

The “something complex” is critical here - I mean specifically an implementation that requires an advanced and reasoned mental model to write. How does it oneshot those and pass comprehensive tests if it isn’t doing advanced reasoning?

> If a malicious ad pops up and offers to install McAfee, some other form of crapware, or outright scamware, they'll click that ad and install the thing. This has been solved on iOS. It’s not an ads problem.

What about my proposed psychosis would make the tests go green when it implements something complex in one shot? In any case, thanks for validating my previous assumption that people like this still exist even in the age of Opus/Fable.

Yeah, it has been clear for a long time that there is reasoning and mental modeling going on here. The other option is that you do understand those words the same way, and the people making these (now nonsensical) anti-AI claims simply aren

GrapheneOS hardware options are substantially behind iOS hardware options. Also Graphene is somewhat annoying to use; I missed shots bc the camera app didn’t open fast enough.

Part of it is knowing that whatever sort of enshittification the cloud providers do, my local programming environment won’t ever be less effective than it is today locally. It’s the same reason my entire development stack from editor to co

Trolling requires subterfuge, in an effort to draw someone into a debate on false pretenses, so that they can be ridiculed for, as they say, eating the pasta. My comment is and was completely sincere; I am not trolling. It legitimately bogg

FWIW the AGPL (which is a nonfree EULA trying to masquerade as a copyright license) has never been tested in court, so the fact that it is nonsensical has yet to actually be adjudicated. Software and services aren’t the same, and the antica

I sit in my car and I push the lever and it drives from my house to my partner’s house ten miles away without me touching the control inputs once. It seems things are getting done.

My websites are neither owned nor operated nor updated from Germany. Don’t be confused by the .berlin domain - using that TLD alone does not subject one to German law.

IPFS never worked right for many years. Great concept, poor implementation. Someone will one day build something that incorporates these ideas.

Apple also claims that iMessage is end to end encrypted. Their privacy stance is 99% posturing.

You can’t solve that in any case, but that has nothing to do with tech.
