For debugging there is the Google antigravity method: there can’t be bugs if it wipes the whole drive containing your project (taps head)

I did see someone write a post about Chat Oriented Programming, to me that appeared successful, but not without cost and extra care. Original Link, Discussion Thread

Successful in that it wrote code faster and its output stuck to conventions better than the author would. But they had to watch it like a hawk and with the discipline of a senior developer putting full attention over a junior, stop and swear at it every time it ignored the rules that they give at the beginning of each session, terminate the session when it starts doing a autocompactification routine that wastes your money and makes Claude forget everything. And you try to dump what it has completed each time. One of the costs seem to be the sanity of the developer, so I really question if it’s a sustainable way of doing things from both the model side and from developers. To be actually successful you need to know what you’re doing otherwise it’s easy to fall in a trap like the CTO, trusting the AI’s assertions that everything is hunky-dory.

Hello, and welcone to Lemmy. Glad you made it, here’s my overall advice:

• No need to get hung up over a few early downvotes on your comment that might cause its score to go negative for a bit. People can be strongly opinionated here. Not everyone agrees with me on this, but I do appreciate people willing to post honestly held unpopular opinions and play a reasonable devil’s advocate in threads. (This is different than just being a contrarian.)
• For your own and everyone’s benefit, try to engage in thoughtful, well reasoned and good faith discussion with empathy for others where it’s due. If you feel like a chain of replies is going nowhere good, there’s no shame in walking away from it.
• Report and block the jerks, trolls and spammers you might encounter like on any forum-like site. Don’t let them spoil your experience when most people here are respectful.

Enjoy your time here!

How often would you like to hear about Beef Stroganoff?

Personally it’s because the harder something is pushed to me by large corporations, the more skeptical I am to begin with.

It is your stance, you don’t have to compulsively change other people’s minds, let them live their lives and you live how you want. For people that are wanting to listen to you, you can tell them how you feel about AI (or perhaps specifically AI chatbots) in both subjective and objective terms. If you want to prepare research and talking points, I think the most effective thing is to have a couple examples such as the Google AI box putting out objectively wrong info with the citation links leading to sites that don’t back up any claim in it. Or how the outputs of comic style image generation tend to look like knock-off Tintin and appear uninspiring and unsettling. How reading generated paragraphs, looking at images and videos of fluffy slop is simply a waste of time for you. Just mix that with all the rest of the shortcomings people have provided and you’ll make for a good discussion. Remember, the point is not to change people’s minds or proselytize but rather to explain why you hold your opinion.

Right, but more diversity of providers will reduce the exposed risk profile from both unintentional and intentional disruption.

No one’s going to bother DDoSing your dinky little server

In the age of AI we now live in there’s more money in data centres than sense, and both venture capital backed businesses and malicious actors (am I repeating myself?) can cast stupidly wide nets.

That said I want to see more alternatives to cloudflare, like a Euro option.

I’ve thought it over again after reading your comment, if airlines really wanted to weasel out of offering a window, and didn’t want to call it an ‘outer wall seat’ for clarity, they could call it a “window-side seat”, “window-adjacent seat”, or “window-end seat”. That would be like the American product saying “chocolate-flavored candy”, where it’s technically true and only misleads enough not to be afoul of the law.

Wall seat or outer seat, I would think.

It was only because of airlines’ decision to change seating layouts that made it out of alignment with the aircraft’s windows to maximize capacity, and since then they have been attempting to redefine the what a window seat is.

Not on purpose in the way you are suggesting… he tried it all on his own in earnest, but made a dumb mistake not reading the prompt carefully enough or trying to understand it. But, he only got into that situation because of an error on Pop OS! maintainers’ part. It was an unknown issue at the time until he uncovered it. OCAU thread that discussed the issue at the time

Right, but the difference is that foreign language translators are putting their own reputation on the line on representing the original speaker’s words accurately, because local media will use the translator’s account to make the story. When the original speaker is incoherent, translators have to convey what they are saying in a short time, otherwise they will sound stupid.

“You know, the press is always on me because I say this,” Trump began. “Has anyone seen Silence of the Lambs? The late great Hannibal Lecter. He’d love to have you for dinner. That’s insane asylums, they’re emptying out their insane asylums.”

My translation: 「記者らはいつもこれに追いかけてる、」トランプは述べた。「誰かは羊たちの沈黙をみたか？昔あの偉大だったハンニバル•レクター。夕食に誘ってくれる人だ。病院から狂人を全員放り出してる。」

Leaving aside that the sentences are barely relevant to one another, you can’t even begin get in the translation that Trump doesn’t appear to understand the difference between an insane asylum and a refugee claim of asylum. So translators just have to say: they’re letting out insane people from institutions.

I don’t have tabs on Spanish, but I can confirm, the Japanese language has a tough time conveying how batshit insane Trump’s speeches are. It means they end up sanewashing him all the time. This article is about Trump’s UN ramble this year.

Title reads: “Trump strongly criticizes UN, says climate change measures are ‘fraudulent’ in his general debate speech”

It’s been a long time problem since his first term: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/japan-interpreters-donald-trump-translate-struggle-us-president-white-house-speech-talking-style-a7596986.html

I tried it out and challenged myself not to touch the terminal to fix anything for as long as I could, to see if it is a truly ready-out-of-the-box experience.

It is actually very intuitive for gaming, what makes it feel more suited than most distros for me is that flatpak apps that you don’t have installed show up in the start menu, ready to add if you need them. Other OSs are leaner and cleaner but you’d have to know the package name.

I managed to get everything started, games and stuff including minor tweaks, and the first time I needed to use the terminal was to work out how to get some fan control working. I didn’t succeed in setting it up. So I took away from that experience that low level hardware OS tasks are harder to access in Bazzite.

HSR should give this guy bus driver training!

Revel in it. There are moments in life where you feel like you can do anything, and some where you feel like you can do nothing. Just store it in your heart and mind that both exist.

Yeah, could it not be just setting /var/age or /home/user/.config/age to ‘20’ or ‘D’, and just have a function to pass that value to a web browser to bypass every age gate prompt?

Many files copied to an external disk are cached, and not written immediately unless you run the “sync” command.

So when you press the “eject” icon, on most frontends a notification will tell you not to unplug it right away, once the write is complete it will send a “it is safe to remove the drive” message. This can take a couple minutes if you are writing a big file to a slow drive.

Situation Normal:

I mean I think people on average here are more mature, immaturity stands out here more than Reddit, even if there is the same relative amount or more arguing.

I’ve studied NNs and GANs in formal education. I do see some promise in AI, but like most people here it is wayyy overhyped for general use.

Edit: clarification

Ah okay.

In protest, everyone in that school should walk around with rulers, wrappers, bottles and other things sticking out of their pockets to trigger the system.
