He’s not withering away fast enough.

Not just “The Truth”, but “The Absolute Truth”!

Bu there’s no sense crying over every mistake

We just keep on trying till we run out of cake.

I don’t think AI codecs will be anything revolutionary. There are plenty of lossless codecs already, but if you want more detail, you’ll need a better physical sensor, and I doubt there’s anything that can be done to go around that (that actually represents what exists, not an hallucination).

Stackoverflow is still very much impossible to replace. The amount of knowledge that it contains is simply too great to fall easily. And LLMs like ChatGPT aren’t even close to being as helpful as SO answers, specially on archaic libraries.

It’s extremely hard to give a machine a sense of morality without having to manually implement it on every node that constitutes their network. Current LLMs aren’t even aware of what they’re printing out, let alone understand the moral implications from that.

The day a machine is truly aware of the morality of what they say, in addition to actually understanding it, then we truly have AI. Currently, we have gargantuan statistical models that people glorify into nigh-godhood.

Sign my petition, damn it!

However, do keep in mind that LLMs regularly pull language an library features out of their asses that have no direct correspondent in practice. I’d use the LLMs to generate small snippets of code, giving them a small and restricted set of requirements to minimize hallucinations.

I have to use W11, but I use ExplorerPatcher to make it bearable.

The Pope would probably know how to code in HolyC.

“Beware those who can’t tell apart the will of God from their own”?

That is a dangerous path to trek, and would lead to record numbers of vote manipulation (excluding dictatorships).

The “none of the above” should be cut-and-dry. If those votes hold the majority, the election is nullified and the candidates are removed from the next one, as clearly the electorate does not seem them fit for the position. It would also give the electorate a good way of protesting, strengthening the democratic values it should hold.

Those who didn’t vote should simply not be counted. Though if it starts approaching 50%, it should ring some alarms.

Adobe needs to stay the hell away, full stop.

I heard the voice line as I was reading it. Excellent and memorable game series.

2+2=5

Unfortunately, this happens way too often. Despite their family’s best intentions for them, money speaks louder.

And OP talks about Alchemy, which commonly uses the energy that different materials have inherently to create magical artifacts.

It’s literally using what God already created.

If it involves pointers, not unlikely.

node_modules is so heavy it is the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy.

Honestly, given the context of a browser, Javascript’s “Everything is better than crashing” philosophy does not seem too out-of-place. Yes, the website might break, but at least it would be theoretically usable still.

Yes, a statically typed language would help, but I’d rather not have one that is “these two types are slightly different, fuck you, have a segfault”, but rather one that is slightly more flexible.
