This is moldly interesting

Hmm I actually recall multiple high profile rounds of layoffs citing AI as the primary reason behind them. I guess they must have misspoken.

This must be from the British influence 🤔

Call me cynical, but unless something removes these people from power, they’ll keep trying until people get tired of hearing about it and stop opposing it.

Best things we can do are: keep being loud about it each time, look out for sophisticated attempts to sneak it into law elsewhere, and don’t let it distract from a potentially even worse move.

Oh yeah it can’t do anything complicated, only on simple modules. And I usually give it pretty detailed instructions on my expected I/O. It just converts a few sentences of English to dozens of lines of code.

Windows hate train looks fun, but as someone who works in the industry, most of that code is probably just unit tests and boilerplate stuff.

Copilot is decent at quickly writing huge amounts of mostly correct, tedious unit test code, depending on your language/framework. And since Microsoft works with languages like C# and .NET for their native apps, and likely backend too, there is quite a bit of verbosity that Copilot can take care of. Also, documentation might count as well.

No real code is AI-generated. He’s just saying shit like this to keep idiot investors happy.

I don’t know how good this feature was on Duolingo, but there’s a site/app called HiNative that does a really good job at this sort of thing.

Every time I’m given a captcha, which is often since I’m on a VPN, I intentionally get the first few wrong, just to do my part to poison their data.

Hey uhh… Can I get the collection somewhere

I’ve been frustrated with Discord already after their stint with NFTs 3 years ago, and now there are ads in the channel panel and the cost of Nitro has doubled. But, none of the FOSS alternatives work well enough to move my friends over there, in my experience. Hopefully this will spark some progress, especially if Discord goes the way of Tumblr/Reddit.

Unfortunately I’ve heard the list is not well-enforced, so the do-not-call list functions more as a list of confirmed working numbers with humans on the other end. That’s why I’ve never tried using it…

I get probably 5 spam calls a week so if that keeps growing, I might have to give it a try…

As much as I’m rooting for this meme, the spike was very brief and the stock has been falling consistently over the last day 😔

I just shipped my pants!

Unfortunately many North Koreans already leave the country to work as slaves for construction companies, factories, etc (including in Europe). Generally they only allow people out who have families back home to be tortured/killed in case they defect.

They will probably get some, but less than you might expect.

Interesting, I’ll give it a shot on my next rig. Looks like it came out after I’d already gotten comfy with Manjaro.

Can’t say with my use case I’ve run into any of those issues, though the cert stuff sounds kinda gnarly, especially to happen more than once.

Genuine question, what are your criticisms of Manjaro? I’ve been on it since about 2019, and haven’t had any major complaints.

For me, it feels like the best mix of features I’ve found so far. Pacman, AUR, very up-to-date repos, and Archwiki, without a lot of the major PITA manual labor I experienced with Arch. No shade on Arch, I just don’t have time in my life to constantly be tinkering and fixing basic stuff I want to just work.

Curious why some people recommend against Manjaro now.

I wouldn’t be surprised if part of this remaining value is because the Japanese internet still heavily relies on it as a platform, even if the west has begun moving elsewhere.

Waiting for 9000 X3D. For most people, 7800X3D is more performant than anything 9000 series.

Unfortunately, bodycam videos often contain private info (nudity, PII, graphic scenes, etc), and need to be put through a censor before being made available to the public. So someone like a police chief has the power to cover something up pretty easily. An agency is only as honest as the ones with the power to control which videos make it out to the public.

Nonetheless, I support putting those features on all officers too. Even if it’s not perfect, it does improve things, and put a feeling of surveillance on the officers.
