I guess all these years of using apps from outside the Play Store and apps I’ve written myself have been an illusion.

The owner of this website has an AI focussed startup:

Don’t worry, they’re probably going to he big and stupid looking in reality. Plus, the obnoxious AI bro wearing them will be easy to identify.

I read that as Shynet. 😄

What if this AGI actually inherits all our awkward traits?

Taxes are bad cause they pay for public infrastructure, schools, and all kinds of public goods. That’s gross disgusting communism.

This is extortion protection money that all goes into Trump’s pockets. This is glorious amazing capitalism with a Christ seal of approval, so its good.

(Ya, I don’t get it either. Sounds like a tax to me too)

Take a look at the Kobo Elipsa. I know someone who has it and they like it a lot. They use it daily at work for taking notes. I think you can export your notes to a computer by connecting it via USB and mounting it as a drive.

Trying to complete a Battletoads bike level is the only game you need. 😆

This is the first I’ve heard of this. Anyone know what’s with all the downvotes?

I’m going to guess they’re companies without software expertise in house, so nobody to review the code anyway.

If companies continue hiring people like this, it’s only a matter of time before the exploits roll out.

Wow! I still have my Dragon Dice in a box somewhere. A few of my friends had it and we played about 4 games before we got bored. Still something nostalgic about it for me though.

I also agree about Tsuro. Great fun!

I tried this one and Wezterm, but I just couldn’t get past how much vram they use, when vram is still at a premium. Konsole works really well for me anyway, so I guess I don’t see the appeal.

Though, I do like Wezterm’s lua config.

Its because of all the people saying that LLMs can reason and think and the human brain works just like an LLM and… some other ridiculous claim.

This shows some limitations on LLMs.

Same! This is really unfortunate.

And he’ll just come back as a BT to ominously hover over the team.

Magit is incredible! It’s a thin layer over git commands but with a nice discoverable UI. Even if I’m using a different tool to write the code I’ll still use Magit for the repo.

What do you use instead?

They just keep innovating! Amazing!!!

I think ignorance (in the non pejorative sense) plays a big part. I can’t really blame my non technical friends for not fully understanding that ditching Facebook for Instagram doesn’t help. Even if they know it’s the same company, it’s still a totally different product, right? There’s also a certain apathy or need to just get something done.

I’m sure I’ve purchased things at Home Depot that would make a plumber cringe, but I know nothing about that sort of thing and I just need to get my sink working.

Still, I think those of us who do know should continue to lead by example. My friends know my stance on these things and some of them are coming around.

Same.

I use Bortmatic to manage my repos and I pay a little bit to BorgBase for offsite backup of my important stuff.

That video!! Yeah, I don’t believe it either. Sort of reminds me of doing Kung Fu as a kid. We’d do public demonstrations and would sometimes ham it up a bit for the audience. I wonder if that’s what’s going on.

Have you practiced push hands? There’s a neat effect I can only describe as sort of being able to bounce off the other person. You can get some decent air with it! I also wonder if there’s a bit of that going on with a lot of exaggeration.
