  • I agree. I cannot condone the killing of a person.

    However, I can appreciate the irony of someone with his opinions on gun control getting gunned down. Even if I still prefer it hadn't happened.

  • What is your most "Fuck you, this is actually awesome?" take?

  • Auto-writing boilerplate code doesn't change the fact that you still have to reimplement the business logic, which is what we're talking about. If you want to address the "reinventing the wheel" problem, LLMs would have to be able to spit out complete architectures for concrete problems.

    Nobody complains about reinventing the wheel on problems like "how do I test a method", they're complaining about reinventing the wheel on problems like "how can I refinance loans across multiple countries in the SEPA area while being in accord with all relevant laws".

  • Mind you, a lot of this reimplementation is because those 1000 other implementations that came before all haven't had their source code released to the public. No amount of vibecoding is going to help there because those LLMs were never trained on code that was never publicly released.

  • Note that, as far as I can tell, the "Second Kowloon" depicted in the show is a much nicer place than the original Kowloon Walled City was.

  • I fully agree. LLMs create situations that our laws aren't prepared for and we can't reasonably get them into a compliant state on account of how the technology works. We can't guarantee that an LLM won't lose coherence to the point of ignoring its rules as the context grows longer. The technology inherently can't make that kind of guarantee.

    We can try to add patches like a rules-based system that scans chats and flags them for manual review if certain terms show up but whether those patches suffice will have to be seen.

    Of course most of the tech industry will instead clamor for an exception because "AI" (read: LLMs and image generation) is far too important to let petty rules hold back progress. Why, if we try to enforce those rules, China will inevitably develop Star Trek-level technology within five years and life as we know it will be doomed. Doomed I say! Or something.

  • They are being commonly used in functions where a human performing the same task would be a mandated reporter. This is a scenario the current regulations weren't designed for and a future iteration will have to address it. Lawsuits like this one are the first step towards that.

  • I think Sisko only got so hung up about Eddington because he pulled his Maquis shit right on DS9, under Sisko's nose.

    Yates tried to deal with the Maquis adjacent to his nose but she didn't fuck with station operations in the process. Also, she wasn't very subtle about it.

  • I saw the term "bio resonance" and immediately knew that this ostensible medical practitioner couldn't get in touch with reality if they used a special reality-seeking pole constructed from a thousand dousing rods.

    I used to work adjacent to the medical field, close enough to have to deal with a certain kind of medical practitioner a lot. For some reason, that part of medicine attracts people who believe in the supernatural so I'm familiar with bullshit from anthroposophy to quantum healing.

    That shit gets real wild real fast. Bio resonance is already terrible (it's basically the same kind of bullshit Scientology's "E-meters" pretend to do but now as a "therapeutic" device with thirty buttons). But the worst must be quantum healing.

    In quantum healing, actually seeing the patient in person is not necessary. Neither is knowing a lot about the patient. In fact, the less the practitioner knows, the better. Just give them a picture and a really vague description of the symptoms and the person (or pet; it "works" for those, too), and the practitioner will do something at some point in the future that will have some positive effect on either the person or the universe as a whole, even if it's not obvious. Source: Trust me, bro.

    And they charge real money for that shit. Real medical practitioners who went to real university and have a real degree in human medicine.

    Absolutely incredible.

  • So so unfair

  • Water hardness matters a lot, too. When I visit my family and shower with their super soft water, I could use industrial degreaser and my hair would be just fine.

    But when I'm at home where the water is super hard? I better use a shampoo without sodium laureth sulfate and condition regularly or my hair will become an uncombable abomination within a few days.

  • Of course it's more normie. As more people from more diverse communities join, the average becomes more, well, average.

    For instance, not everyone who moved over from Reddit is a communist trans furry cybersecurity expert in a chastity belt – some people even somehow manage to be none of those things.

    I think there is room for them and there's even room for them thinking the original crowd is weird. We need to maintain that "weird" is good, though, and that people can just look away if a topic makes then uncomfortable.

    It works with .ml and friends – they can spend all day living their understanding of communism and everyone who doesn't share that understanding can just block them and move on with their lives.

  • The US Air Force wants to test blowing up Cybertrucks because 'it is likely the type of vehicles used by the enemy may transition to Tesla Cyber trucks'

    Jump

  • Well, your scenario is about as likely as Cybertrucks becoming the standard platform for technicals...

    (My weaksauce scenario is unrealistic but still the best explanation for why the army would need to train shooting at Cybertrucks. Other than, you know, obvious grift.)

  • Of course realistically this serves no purpose other than transferring some money from the DOD to Musk. But we can try to make up some slightly less depressing explanation...

  • There's an even worse possible outcome: A civil war that culminates in one side bringing out the nukes.

    Now, that one's rather unlikely but it still pretty much the worst possible option.

    LibreOffice calls out Microsoft for using "complex" file formats to lock in Office users

    Jump

  • In the end? When they bribed the ISO into making OOXML a standard, what Office actually saved was incompatible with that standard on day one.

    OOXML becoming an ISO standard was entirely to undermine the development of OpenDocument as an open standard. If they hadn't done that, governments asking for open standards might have required OpenDocument. Now, since OOXML is an open standard, they're immune from that even if they never bothered to implement that standard correctly.

  • Canonically she uses Copland OS, which is named after an abandoned Mac OS 8 prototype but is functionally completely different. Given that Copland OS is built to access what works like a crossbreed between the internet and and the Zone from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games, I think it's reassuring that we don't have it in our world.
