I have trouble with using tone in my words but not interpreting tone from others' words. Weird, isn't it?

  • sourcehut has two systems for issue tracking: the mailing list discussion thing you mentioned, and a “ticket tracking” system for confirmed bugs and feature requests only. see e.g. https://todo.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/todo.sr.ht

  • thanks but i felt like that’d be obvious from the URL lol. the SO survey is probably the largest sample size we have for this…

    …that isn’t outright from an AI company (not that SO doesn’t have AI but they’re still an answers company as opposed to, say, Cursor AI whose main selling point is the AI. even Zed, the company behind the blog linked in the post, has a much higher emphasis on AI) and their sample should be pretty close to all online devs, maybe slightly exclusionary of very experienced ones. SO’s evangelist proportion is not even close to 4chan’s chud proportion; not sure why had the impression needed to name that comparison.

    it’s not like Codidact has a dev survey and even if they had one they’d have as much bias as this comment section

  • How is that pro-AI? It clearly very neutrally says it’s just a tool, which you can also hate.

  • TIL Google changed their logo in May 2025, making it a gradient instead of having delineated "color sector"s

    Jump

  • I only noticed because I had to research Google and so I went to the Wikipedia page and it said "Logo since May 2025" and I was like "whaaaa 2015 was just months ago????" and i looked it up

  • Does anyone remember Third Voice? You could graffiti any website and only people who had plugin installed could see it. Why isn't there a modern alternative?

  • The product soon received much criticism by website owners claiming they were trying to externalize discussion. The White House website was annotated with topical jokes. Further issues arose when spammers began to leverage the product, and increased issues arose when cross-site scripting security vulnerabilities were exploited in the product.

    coincidentally i think the actual wish you were here song is also a folksy one but more rock

  • For that song I wouldn't have chose these two parts. I would've gone for Part 1 and Part 3. Instead of a sequel Part 2 feels like a separate installment if you get what I mean.

    Plus that's kind of cheating. Is every prog song split into multiple parts considerable for this? Like also from Pink Floyd, Wish You Were Here (the suite?) is split into two large sections, and the folksy Pigs on the Wing acts like a storybook introduction and ending split into two parts and put at the start and end of the album.

    There's a ton more examples like that. Especially on concept albums. The Beach Boys'/Brain Wilson has Wonderful, Song for Children (Look), Child is Father of the Man, and Surf's Up exploring the same idea and building on top of one another.

  • I don't think stopping anyone from working on anything is the way to combat the AI problem. It's not like this event's requirements somehow disproportionately makes projects easier for AI to train on.
