I’ll remember this post when someone manages to make a human fly by tieing a cow to their feet.

No it is not. It is the same as saying you can’t have coal energy production without production of CO2. At most, you can capture that CO2 and do something with it instead of releasing to the atmosphere.

You can have energy production without CO2. Like solar or wind, but that is not coal energy production. It’s something else. In order to remove CO2 from coal energy production, we had to switch to different technologies.

In the same way, if you want to not have hallucinations, you should move away from LLMs.

The same argument for cartels. “We didn’t all increase our prices to the exact same amount, we just paid a consulting company to tell us which price we should use. Of course our competitors used the exact same company, but that’s just a coincidence”.

Tbf that leads to the problem of:

Company/Individual makes program that is in no way meant for making management decision.

Someone else comes and deploys that program to make management decisions.

The ones that made that program couldn’t stop the ones that deployed it from deploying it.

Even if the maker aimed to make a decision-making program, and marketed it as so. Whoever deployed it is ultimately the responsible for it. As long as the maker doesn’t fake tests or certifications of course, I’m sure that would violate many laws.

Heh. Ironic.

Gen AI porn and shitposts are the only 2 decent use cases I’ve seen of gen AI.

You can’t make half of those without training it on porn.

Maybe they changed the defaults. I stopped using GitHub after they trained their AI over private repos.

But I remember clearly that I was annoyed when looking at my own repos because my forks (for actually doing PRs) would show at the top instead of my own repos.

Maybe some people don’t delete the fork after their PR is done.

In my case, I found another explanation.

Sometimes, a random person comes and forks one of my repos. I check their profile, and it’s a techbro student with hundreds of forked repos without any commits. With their bio referencing AI or some shit.

I’m pretty sure these people fork a lot of repos just to pad their CV or something. Make it look like you have a lot of repos. Because when you go to someone’s profile, it is not clear that a repo is a fork instead of their own creation.

This is a windows/hollow knight issue.

Firefox has no way of knowing that you’re playing a full screen game.

This comment was surprisingly easy to read. Definitely easier than if it were for the “th” sound

Maybe naming single-letter variables I can see being easier to review than to do.

Any other kind of refactoring though, IDE refactoring tools are instantaneous and deterministic.

The problem with that is that reviewing takes time. Valuable maintainer time.

Curl faced this issue. Hundreds of AI slop “security vulnerabilities” were submitted to curl. Since they are security vulnerabilities, they can’t just ignore them, they had to read every one of them, only to find out they weren’t real. Wasting a bunch of time.

Most of the slop was basically people typing into chatgpt “find me a security vulnerability of a project that has a bounty for finding one” and just copy-pasting whatever it said in a bug report.

With simple MRs at least you can just ignore the AI ones an priorize the human ones if you don’t have enough time. But that will just lead to AI slop not being marked as such in order to skip the low-prio AI queue.

I hope they are prepare for the AI slop DDoS. Curl wasn’t, and they didn’t even state they would welcome AI contributions.

I don’t say to abolish tax. With tax, however, you can set taxes on the transactions made for evading taxes. You can’t set a maximum wage on foreign companies though.

But how would setting a minimum wage fix the loopholes of setting a maximum wage. That makes no sense unless you explain further.

I don’t see what Switzerland has to do with any of this. And why it would be fixed if Switzerland set a minimum wage.

The problem of this is always the same. Contractors. Is your janitor holding the wage of your CEO down? Easy fix, you are the CEO. Fire the janitor and hire a cleaning company. Since the employees of the cleaning company are not your employees, their wages are no longer relevant.

At some point, the CEO can just have its own company of 1 employee (himself) which owns 100% of the stakes of the real company, and he can also be CEO of the real company. The real company would just pay massive amounts to the CEO company for “IP” or “consulting”.

This policy can be implemented voluntarily by companies, but I don’t think a government can make a law to implement this policy without obvious loopholes.

Pokemon uranium is playable on PC, I don’t think it works in consoles. Played it long time ago so I don’t remember how good it is though.

I don’t know how easy it would be to find though since Nintendo shut it down.

There are use cases. Like containers where the pointer to the object itself is the key (for example a set). But they are niche and should be implemented by the standard library anyway. One of the things I hate most about Java is .equals() on strings. 99.999% of times you compare strings, you want to compare the contents, yet there is a reserved operator to do the wrong comparison.

The theme is at https://github.com/Calcoph/tetheme. at themes/TeTheme_red-color-theme.json. The other is an old one that is almost the same as default vscode dark.
