  • School pickup lines are wild

  • My kids can’t ride the bus because they are “too close” to school, except it’s 1.6 miles away on a busy road with patches of no sidewalks. It would be trivial to have a bus drop them nearby but they instead want to waste the time of hundreds of parents every single day.

  • Trump Says He Is Prepared to Send ‘More Than the National Guard’ Into U.S. Cities

    Jump

  • Only while sleeping, and even then I’m not so sure.

  • Elon Musk launches encyclopedia ‘fact-checked’ by AI and aligning with rightwing views

    Jump

  • AI is predominantly classified as “fair use” in the US right now, so it wouldn’t even matter if you said “No AI” - copyright does not apply.

  • China develops “plastic” from bamboo cellulose that can replicate or surpass the properties of many widely used plastics and biodegrades in 50 days

    Jump

  • Single use plastics intended for quick use and then disposal mostly?

    I’m thinking something like a medical use where a plastic thing is used exactly once and then thrown away that same day. Maybe a syringe or whatever.

  • He’s right though, he doesn’t know what’s going to happen…

  • I was looking at a crystal clear, water tight, biodegradable, algae-based plastic the other day. The problem is, well, that it is biodegradable. You can’t package food with it because it will grow mold and then lose its properties.

    Possibly for situations where it stays dry it could be a great plastic, but that pretty much excludes all shipping and food use.

  • 'AI' Sucks the Joy Out of Programming

    Jump

  • Sure, I’ve used that too in the past.

  • 'AI' Sucks the Joy Out of Programming

  • I honestly don’t think such a generic tool is possible, at least in a Django context. The boilerplate is about as minimal as is possible while still maintaining the flexibility to build anything.

  • 'AI' Sucks the Joy Out of Programming

    Jump

  • Because it’s not worth inventing a whole tool for a one-time use. Maybe you’re the kind of person who has to spin up 20 similar Django projects a year and it would be valuable to you.

    But for the average person, it’s far more efficient to just have an LLM kick out the first 90% of the boilerplate and code up the last 10% themself.

    Jump

  • Sure but it’s a lot less flexible. As much hate as they get, LLMs are the best natural language processors we have. By FAR.

  • IIRC, Wikipedia is CC-BY-SA licensed, generally it’s okay to take, remix, and publish its content, no matter whether you’re using it for good or evil. You just have to Share Alike the results.

    But asking a known biased bullshit generator to fact check things is pretty cringe in general.

  • Hurricane Melissa could be Jamaica's "storm of the century," world forecasters say

    Jump

  • Storm of the century, so far.

  • 'AI' Sucks the Joy Out of Programming

    Jump

  • Hard disagree. There is a certain level of boilerplate that is necessary for an app to do everything it needs. Django, for example, requires you to specify model files, admin files, view files, form files, etc. that all look quite similar but are dependent on your specific use case. You can easily have an AI write these boilerplate for you because they are strongly related to one another, but they can’t easily be distilled down to something simpler because there are key decisions that need specified.

  • The $40 Billion Question: Did America Just Buy the Election in Argentina?

    Jump

  • If deregulation works then why did they need billions of dollars to fix it?

  • Microsoft's OpenAI losses hidden as part of $4.7 billion 'other' expense — stake in AI company still doesn't turn a profit as companies grapple with ongoing contract negotiation

    Jump

  • They’re going to use that as the leverage they need to get a good deal on it. Usually these types of investment arrangements give first rights of refusal when looting the corpse.

    It’s already calculated, in my opinion.

  • I’m sure we’ll see a bloodbath in the coming years as it all falls apart, and then the big companies like Microsoft and Google will vacuum up the pieces for themselves.

  • I hope it shocks the people awake. They’re too complacent right now.

  • Even if they were, it’s not okay to murder people. You could just stop their boat and arrest them.
