The gambling trope is so tired. AI development doesn't involve luck to any appreciable degree, certainly not more than hiring people to do a job can be considered "gambling" (you never know what you're going to get!). It

I'm sure we don't know for sure that humans work like LLMs, but do we know that they don't ?

100 digits per minute is less than two per second, I feel like most people exceed that.

Can't this argument be applied to every group that has more than one member?

Half of the mentioned issues are issues of atomicity, not idempotency. If I make a request, and the server crashes midway and doesn't send some crucial events, that's an issue whether or not I send a second request. From a cursory

Well, sure, it's very new. Soon we'll adapt and it'll be just another tool we're using.

I work by myself an feel great joy. Today I talked to the AI about a feature I want to add to this week's project ( https://www.writelucid.cc ) and it had some good feedback. Later I refactored a big part of the code to simpl

I mean, the linked page and the comment above say it is: > It is explicitly forbidden for clients to accept any page that doesn't conform with the specification. This prevents the standardized diabolic rules that one must implement

Yeah, and then the eldest twin is born on the 31st and the youngest on the 2nd, same as before.

What do you mean by opposing sides of midnight? They'd be born on the same day then, if one is born just before midnight of the 2nd and the one (later) just after midnight of the 1st.

What's the fallacy called where you oppose something based on the fact that it has impact on something, not realising that the alternative is is even worse? I see people talk about how ugly solar panels make mountainsides, but when I

I think the GP has an issue not with the specification part, but with the part where it's forbidden for clients to render a noncompliant page.

If you don't understand something, the first thing to do is try to understand it, before going to "the people who use this are incompetent". In this case, the answer is right there in the question: You have to pay to bypass i

Those two claims are independent. Centralized FOSS software cannot do this, since you can audit the source, compile it, and use it that way. Open source is not a requirement for security, sure, but it's much easier to secure OSS.

What? Don't Cloudflare literally have their own CAPTCHA service? Why are they using reCAPTCHA?

That article seems to be about how Meshcore split into two, with one contributor forking the code and taking the previously official website with him. There's no mention of Meshtastic.

The problem with AI isn't that it's mediocre, I can work with mediocre. The problem with AI is that it produces absolutely stellar world-class code with two hidden 0days in it. I can't work with that sort of surprise. I'

I don't disagree, I just want to say I've been really liking DeepseekV4, which is on par with Sonnet 4.6, in my coding tests.

Yeah, I don't know, I build stuff for a niche, but then it turns out I can't really reach any other person in that niche, so it's just me using my tools (which, personally, I think are fairly well made). How do you solve that

That's why I designed my bot to have a very small core, with most other things being plugins, from the start. I also containerized everything and made it so the bot never sees API keys as well. https://stavrobot.stavros.io
