Goosefoot!
Though it's kinda only half-domesticated.
Right behind you, with sleepy eyes.
TBH the whole airport is so sleepy and relaxed that no wonder things get through. :)
... they will ask a chatbot ...
Yeah, I'm not worried about you, but this hype rodeo (love the phrase BTW) is force fed and and is succesfully infecting a lot of people.
Which is fucking dangerous.
This also implies that any due process will already be compromised.
But that’s exactly the opposite of what “AI” evangelists say.
I mean, yes, you’re right, but at the same time they already bought themselves to be outside of the law like ten times over.
That works both ways.
There's this AI generated conjoined twin thing trending now on Insta, I guess the algorithms picked that up.
Also:
Heidegger
Schroedinger
Lacan maybe?
Or like automate unit test case writing - this is a mixed bag, but it did help a few times (and other times I was quickly able to see its bullshit and redone it manually anyway)
But I do the opposite - sometimes allow myself to use “AI” to write me a CDK stack snippet or some shit like that - then verify the results.
Writing actual prod code - no fucking way.
Like, learning idiosyncrasies of another package manager, or deployment schema generator, or some corporate backend API… yes, I find this more and
more tedious.
I mean, I’m also a programmer with some 25 or so years of industry experience.
And there are very much things that are boring. Like, figuring out semantics of yet another thing (library, tool, whatnot) that does a thing I need but is different from another one.
I feel you.
And not just Western civilization. Civilization as a whole - climate catastrophe won't take hostages, and yet the immediate shit that's going on everywhere has had me lose focus on that even.
I have a kid. I'm dead worried what kind of reality they will need to cope with.
I hear: "more ads".
The famous list incomprehensions.
Also: heavy lifting, possibly scaled up/down - as an alternative to exoskeletons.
Also: hostile environments, like underwater welding jobs, which are not just super risky, but also super complex to even get there while preserving the poor human body.
There's stuff to do, just not this bullshit.
what a petty shit
wat why
(the moon being conveniently roughly 1 light second away)
Fuck Altman, but there’s an actual interesting problem there - there’s something quirky about how electricity does work.
Veritassium guy raised this - if we have a bulb connected to a cable that goes to the moon and back, will flipping a switch light it up immediately or after one or two seconds?
Please leave some slack for non-native speakers though. It’s not always easy to catch subtleties between seemingly synonymous words.
Like, I feel “female” being off as it’s off in Polish too. But I do struggle with for instance different words for a sex worker.
Nitpick:
The code for the airplane is MiG-31; "Mi-" is used for the helicopters.
Oh yeah. Would very much like to see the cycling industry switch from hex sockets to torx altogether.
I mean, hex is not horrible, but torx is better in almost any way. But no, we need to carry more tools.
I love your comment.
No, JSON is also horrible for machines. Very space inefficient, verify-only schemas (no code generation / protocol first possible really), very poor typing.
TBH, the whole VS Code thing feels like a hack built on top of a hack on top of a hack.
