  • Most probably heart or vascular related ilness.

  • Do you speak whatever language they spoke in Peru in the year 3000?

    Can you learn it before you become the main offering in a ritual sacrifice?

  • I second the N100. It's what I use and it's ridiculously powerful for the small amount of power it drains. And barely needs refrigeration.

  • In not particular order, and a kind reminder that I'm not from US so some things may look different if you are from there:

    People are far noisier, as there is less concerns by being judged by your neighbors. People used to behave purely out of shame. Now the shame is gone and people are wild.

    Vast increase in dog ownership. There's literally more dog than small kids in my country from several years now.

    Vast increase in immigration. Statistics are weird here, as we give citizenship to a great amount of migrants in just two years, and here is illegal to record statistics based on ethnicity, country of origin or any aspect that would identify anyone's ancestry. But my neighborhood went to 90-10 national-immigrant to 40-60. I live in a poor neighborhood so it's not the same in all parts of the country, but immigration increase is there and it's a big change.

    Less violence overall. Street violence overall seems lower. Also there's less of a terrorists threat as we used to have (there were several active terrorists groups here that are now gone).

    A housing problem. People used to get a house without issues. Now it's one of the biggest issues of young people.

    Increase of tolerance towards homosexuality. It's view as something very normal nowadays I think, and it use not to be that way.

    Increase of equality between men and women. Direct discrimination is completely outlaw and hard to see. Indirect discrimination may still exist but is on a all time low. Most bosses I have had in all my jobs have been women (for giving a small example).

    People go on vacation more often and further away. When I was young people used to just go one time a year on vacation, most of the time to a national place. Now people go several times a year to foreign countries, and "travel" have become the most important thing in many people's lives (how many dating profiles have I seen in which the person pointed traveling as their life moto).

    Most people have university studies. It didn't used to be that way.

    There's probably much more. Those are the first things that came into my mind.

  • Author response:

    Lena juggles lesson plans, bedtime stories, and plot twists—sometimes all in the same day. A teacher by day, a writer by night, and a mom 24/7, she crafts paranormal romances with magic, mystery, and just the right amount of chaos. When she’s not wrangling students or characters, she’s probably drinking coffee and pretending it’s a potion for extra energy.

    Hi everyone,

    I want to openly and sincerely address something that’s come to light regarding my book. A prompt was recently found in the text. It's something that should never have made it into the final version. I want to apologize deeply to my readers and to the writing community.

    The truth is, I used AI to help edit and shape parts of the book. As a full-time teacher and mom, I simply can't afford a professional editor, and I turned to AI as a tool to help refine my writing. Teaching wages make it hard enough to support a family, and writing has been a passion project I pursued in the small pockets of time I could find. My goal was always to entertain, not to mislead.

    That said, the appearance of an editing prompt in the final book was a mistake — one that I take full responsibility for. It has unintentionally sparked a broader conversation about AI in creative work, and I understand the concerns. I’m taking this seriously and will be reviewing the book carefully, making corrections where needed, and being more transparent in the future about my process.

    To my readers: thank you for your support, your honesty, and your patience. I’m learning from this and will do better. To the wider community: I'm sorry.

    Big "I'm a mom everything I do is excused because my motherhood" vibes.

    All her books seems to be free on digital format and just about $3 on printed paper, and doesn't seem like even for free, a lot of people read it. So it's not like a big scam or something, I doubt she really makes any money with this.

  • Imagine not knowing your own and only language.

    If I made a mistake in one of the 5 languages I speak it would be something. But making these mistakes in the only language you are able to speak... That's something.

  • You were making me doubting my english for a moment there. But no, a quick google search confirmed that a cup, like in a cup of coffee, is totally valid for my statement.

  • I seriously don't think that would be what happens.

    Things that have gone shit with AI were things that were previously shit anyway. Unpaid intern, bot farms, AI... All the same. I don't think it would be much of an issue. I'm more worry about the ending of free adless internet. That were I've been seeing more and more of a decline.

    And probably some fuckers with the excuse of "AI threat" will start to put golden walls around some spaces.

    My red line is that I don't pay for things that should be free. If most of internet became paywalled I suppose I would have to live with all the data I've hoarded over the years.

    Though I suspect there will always be a free internet.

  • They would be a different type of animal, like dogs and wolf. Domestication is a hell of a drug.

  • So we are really just a big cup?

  • Dog software running on furry hardware.

  • I've tried lots of options, and I still go back to vscode.

    I've extensively used neovim and it has been my main IDE for years, but I got tired of having to spend entire afternoons configuring it. And I had too many total breaks, that had led me to recently abandon it as an IDE, still use it sometimes but much less. It relies on too many plugins, which makes breaks more common imho.

    I tried helix. But features are far from what I expect for an IDE, even a modal command line one.

    On the gui territory, I tried Lapce, but it's still buggy and lacks features. Development pace is slow enough so I don't consider it could become my ide in the near future, I have hopes for it, but not much as it could easily become abandoned before it's usable.

    I wanted to try Zed, but they seems to have a preference for macOS, which may have sense in the US but here I don't remember the last developer I saw using a mac. There's now a linux version, which I may try at some point, but some people commented that while in a better state than Lapce it's not still a production ready option for an text-editor-IDE. Also the company behind it doesn't inspire trust to me. There's something about it that smells fishy, I cannot quite put my finger on what, but there's something.

    There are more options, some obscure, some old, some paid. For instance I usually hear good things about jetbrains ide. I tried intellij community and I'm not impressed, it's slightly better than eclipse, but it's not on the level of visual studio for dotnet. I'm not a student and I don't get paid for my hobby developments so paid options are a no-go.

    So it is visual studio code for me. Sometimes I still use neovim, as I really like modal editors, and vim/neovim is my go to text editor anyways. I'm due to try emacs, and I'm hopeful for the future of both helix and Lapce, though I manage my emotions as I've know too many projects that just never deliver, so I'm cautious.

  • How do you know is not being used to develop open source code?

    I have used AI assistance in many things, most of them are open sourced as I by default open source everything I make in my free time. The output code is indistinguishable, same as you wouldn't know if I asked my questions on how to do something on reddit, stackoverflow (rip) or other forum. You see the source, not the process I followed to make that source code. For all we know linux kernel devs might as well be asking chatgpt question, we wouldn't know.

    As per explicit open source AI related tools there are hundreds. So I don't really know what you mean here that "open source projects" have not adopted AI. Do you mean like "vibe coding"?

  • Not my experience.

    In my job they are trying to do something similar (AI driven productivity control) and unions are fighting against it.

  • Pretty much it. Unless there's an infringement of labor law. I don't know where they work or much about other countries labor laws.

    They would probably need to hire a lawyer in this case. Unions usually also help in these cases.
