they are just SO terrified of calling it what it is, a concentration camp. They are "concentrating" specific people into their camp. Call it what it is. it's a Concentration Camp.
I'm SO looking forward to what the Dems decide to call it when they inevitably set up little "chambers" there and people suddenly start "disappearing".
man those Tribal GBA SPs. yeah I remember when Nintendos advertising in the US was way more edgy. like when the GameBoy Pocket and GameBoy Color came out the commercials for those were dark.
Which git branch are you on?
both. but majority are master cause that's the default and I'm too lazy to change nor do I really care.
as someone who has worked in the tech field for well over 20 years at this point this is going to be a very controversial prediction and I imagine many won't agree with me but LLMs, at least in their current state, will go the way of the buffalo.
I've seen many tech fads come and go, library fads, device fads, concept fads, product fads, etc, etc, etc. in their current states many companies are now realizing that AI isn't speeding up their processes or production. What they see now is that they're slowing things down and creating massive tech debt. "Vibe coding" simply doesn't work and anyone who does it consistently at any company should be immediately fired. Many places are now hiring contractors to fix their AI created tech debt and I see that as a sort of temporary field to get into for freelancers. Advertise your services to repair damage done by AI. You'll get work. I get emails weekly from my contacts looking for someone to go into a place and refactor or replace what someone has "vibe coded" or simply allowed an AI to go buck wild on their base.
I see it pivoting away from tech things and focusing back on content creation. writing scripts, blog posts, ads, producing images and films, etc. Writing code or solving tech issues it has, across the board, gotten worse at. But even I'm not so sure about the content creation or it being a "digital assistant" there's A LOT of push back from the average user and consumer right now that simply don't want it.
I'm probably one of the few people that believe this but I feel they've just gotten worse and worse and people are now starting to wake up and realize they're all collectively shit and a waste of time and resources.
I use QuteBrowser. no ads at all, if I want to use youtube I have a script that will skip the ads and has been working without updates for well over a year now, it's great. I used to use Floorp and while I like the dev team behind Floorp the updates for it are gradually becoming further and further apart so I ditched it and mozilla.
if you utilize it as a tool it's fine. it can be a good rubber duck or github copilot saves you like 2 seconds to just hit tab to complete something that's correct in the preview. But utilizing it to do anymore than that and you've lost. Claude will constantly make things up or tell you to use libraries that have been orphaned for like 5+ years.
anyone who says "it can help you write better code" are fooling themselves. I've yet to see it.
also comes with a possible ghost or just someone with a really messed up face in the basement.
Claude AI does this ALL the time too. It NEEDS to give a solution, it rarely can say "I don't know" so it will just completely make up a solution that it thinks is right without actually checking to see the solution exists. It will make/dream up programs or libraries that don't and have never existed OR it will tell you something can do something when it has never been able to do that thing ever.
And that's just how all these LLMs have been built. they MUST provide a solution so they all lie. they've been programmed this way to ensure maximum profits. Github Copilot is a bit better because it's with me in my code so it's suggestions, most of the time, actually work because it can see the context and whats around it. Claude is absolute garbage, MS Copilot is about the same caliber if not worse than Claude, and Chatgpt is only good for content writing or bouncing ideas off of.
I use github copilot as it does speed things up. but you have to keep tight reins on it, but it does work because it sees my code, sees what i'm trying to do, etc. So a good chunk of the time it helps.
Now something like Claude AI? yeah...no. Claude doesn't know how to say "I don't know." it simply doesn't. it NEEDS to provide you a solution even if the vast majority of time it's one it just creates off the top of it's head. it simply cannot say it doesn't know. and it'll get desperate. it'll provided you with libraries or repos that have been orphaned for years. It'll make stuff up saying that something can magically do what you're really looking for when in truth it can't do that thing at all and was never intended to. As long as it sounds good to Claude, then it must be true. It's a shit AI and absolutely worthless. I don't even trust it to simply build out a framework for something.
Chatgpt? it's good for providing me with place holder content or bouncing ideas off of. that's it. like you said they're simply tools not anything that should be replacements for...well...anything.
Could they slow people down? I think so but that person has to be an absolute moron or have absolutely zero experience with whatever their trying to get the AI to do.
not sure if it was "big budget" but Madame Web.
It was, essentially, a Spider-Man prequel that simply didn't need to happen story wise. It introduced a bunch of characters from the comics that do indeed have Spider-Man like powers but in the film they simply "suggest" it. You had a villain whose entire purpose for doing what he did was he had a dream where said "spider people" killed him. You had Uncle Ben shoed in to simply say to the audience 'hey, HEY ASSHOLE! look...It's a Spider Man Prequel!" and THAT was the ONLY connection to Peter Parker.
It's like having a Star Wars Prequel where Uncle Owen is in it and he's hanging out with a bunch of people who could potentially be Padawans but we're not sure and they're being hunted cause some random Sith had a dream that sure, they could potentially be Jedi one day. Now none of them actually are but they COULD be one day, just not in this movie.
he discovered the grift and decided to get in on it. Even his father called him out on it after he called Palestinians "inferior". that's all this is. He's an act, a con artist, a grifter.
a guy that claimed streaming on his main asmongold account and getting paid with subs was "too stressful and causing anxiety" thus started streaming on an alt account that eventually became bigger than his main and makes him more money too.
And the people that watch him are just morons of the lowest caliber.
nah all those Nazi's to the south can choke on it.
i.e. his rich buddies called him up and said "we need/want more money, go manipulate the market again" to which Trump said "sure i'll fuck with Canada some more"
that's all this is. Carney needs to stop playing nice and start up the digital service tax again.
As someone who used to be an Assistant Manager at Blockbuster...keep that thing dead and gone. Like as a consumer, sure I get it, but working there absolutely sucked. No one remembers the late fees or the fact Blockbuster would send you to collections for ONE late fee (like a whole $3.25) and then send you those bullshit cards in the mail letting you know that you owe them less than $5? yeah I remember cause on a near daily basis I'd get someone in the store yelling at me that they're trying to get a loan or a house and this little card is fucking it all up for them. MOST of the time the late fee was because the absolutely ancient computer system we used that they never updated...at all...since the 80s...would skip barcodes randomly on scans. That or some vengeful employee at another store would just manually add fees to someones account (yes that was possible, yes we could just add fees to random accounts willy nilly)
also my District Manager was a douchenozzle. Mike, rot in hell.
Qutebrowser is my main and Lynx is my "feed" browser. Qutebrowser you don't need anything else. it just works and you can script the thing to your hearts content.
For a long time I was using Floorp, and while I like floorp and the dev team behind it, I just stopped using it as my main. Sure it's a fork of firefox and they're at the whims of mozilla which lately has been clearly evident with the slow updates to floorp.
Qutebrowser just works. The dev for it is a nice dude who is easily accessible for help. the community for it is also very helpful. the integration with things like greasemonkey make scripting and customizing anything so painfully easy. I mean there's a great script for it right now that completely 100% circumvents youtube ads and it's been working for months straight without any need to update. It also meshes extremely well with my Bitwarden.
I'll never use a different browser again.
Plenty. If you've ever worked retail you'd know the answer to this question. the "lifers" will volunteer. You know the types if you've worked in retail. They'll do it thinking it'll look good to some upper manager and allow them to get promoted for simply showing loyalty to the company. The ones who believe and tell you constantly how the company can do no wrong, how great it is to work for said company, and how the company has their best interests in mind.
no other way does exist. Those no kings protests were nice and all but what exactly even remotely, slightly, changed? nothing. they trucked ahead like they will continue to do.
Democrat politicians will continue to chirp on twitter and make awesome tiktok vids but that's all it is at the end of the day, talk. I can only watch so many committee hearings and just know "why am I wasting my time watching this? it's just a dog and pony show and nothing will come of it."
Look I admire AOC and Bernie and the rest of them but peaceful protesting is just going to paint a target on their backs for when they come for them and make no mistake, they will.
I just think Americans should "make it harder" for when the nazi's eventually do come knocking.
“You are an absolute fucking idiot who can barely code…”
Honestly, that's what you have to do. It's the only way I can get through using Claude.ai. I treat it like it's an absolute moron, I insult it, I "yell" at it, I threaten it and guess what? the solutions have gotten better. not great but a hell of a lot better than what they used to be. It really works. it forces it to really think through the problem, research solutions, cite sources, etc. I have even told it i'll cancel my subscription to it if it gets it wrong.
no more "do this and this and then this but do this first and then do this" after calling it a "fucking moron" and what have you it will provide an answer and just say "done."
AI tends to eat it's own, and others, shit. That's why you'll often see images like this that look similar to others. This is just what bing image creator is pumping out because it's literally gorging on its own waste.
