I haven't written an article in a long time. I am testing out a new blogging platform provided by Standard Notes (@proton.me no SN account?). Here’s a letter from my own experience to student developers.

« Real world impactΒ Β» man. Those 3 words are thrown around like it doesn’t mean anything anymore. Having AI doing stuff for you on your computer (book stuff, reminders, etc) ain’t much a real world impact. It’s just an assistant for more and more lazy people (not talking about privacy nightmare).

A few years ago I wrote to Libby asking them to add an opt-in feature: take my CC# and every time I borrow a book, auto-donate whatever Amazon charges for it to my local library. They replied quickly but declined. Wish they would reconsider.

One of the best book I’ve ever read. I actually read the book 3 times, and the audiobook (narrated by yourself @neildegrassetyson.com ) 2 times.

I’ve recommend it to many people. Very good book. Thank you

What about Elon buying him the seat he is currently sitting in? Isn’t that illegal as well? That should be investigated, impeached, removed, and jailed for everyone that took part in that greatest scam.

Today, I graduate with a bachelor of science in computer science. Now, it’s time to find a full-time software engineering job. Time to apply massively !!!

If anyone knows any opportunities for entry-level positions, let me know 😊

Companies should stop adding AI crap everywhere. This will literally cause the dead of the internet.

Yeah, that’s what happen when people in charge doesn’t understand technology..lol it doesn’t matter which email client you’re using, you can always receive crazy stuff regardless the client you’re using. The difference with proton is that you can actually filter, but I guess they don’t know that lol

I’m pretty sure it is somewhere documented on BlueSky documentation. Don’t quote me on that one but i believe it is

The problem is per country laws. Any apps, decentralized or not, that are available in a country has to follow this country rules. The good think with decentralized apps is that it affect only the client (the one that the country requires to follow their rules) but not the network.

Just don’t us BlueSky client but another one and you’re good.

Sure, but whatever they provide isn’t as good as the other option. To this day, GPT, Gemini or even Mistral Le Chat is still better than Grok.

23.04.2025 14:43 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

It’s not really revolutionary as all the other AI already does that (Gemini, GPT, etc). Grok is late in the game. Every new feature that grok get, everyone else already has them for a long time.

That’s funny. Washington post content generated by chatGPT, and chatGPT will link the Washington post article that it create itself lol.

Unnecessary steps, but I guess that’s the agreement they had to avoid lawsuits because gpt was scrapping the Washington garbage for free before that.

Did you guys roll back already? I can't see checkmarks or anybody's marks yet (even after updating the app). Maybe you guys haven't started yet?
