Despite worrying my brains out about getting deported from my home of 14 years because I wasn’t born in this godforsaken place, I’m extremely excited that Elon will get fired in the next 6 months or less. Gives me life to think about him getting very publicly humiliated by an even greater piece of shit than he is.
Ohhhh, so this is a forced-birther agenda item. Got it
Hate to break this, but https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/elon-musk-x-corp-alex-jones-infowars-rcna180487
Seems he is now fully sold on the idea that this is his world, we’re just living in it.
Microsoft found a fitting way to punish AI for collaborating with SEO spammers in generating slop: make it use the GitHub code review tools. https://github.blog/changelog/2024-10-29-refine-and-validate-code-review-suggestions-with-copilot-workspace-public-preview/
Right, sure he picked the most glorified fantasy race out there, “but evil”. When in reality he’s a Duergar at best:
Personality Tyrannical, grim, industrious and pessimistic,[11][20] the lives of the gray dwarves were bleak and brutal. Rather than a flaw, however, they viewed their lack of happiness as their greatest strength, the defining feature of duergar pride.
Sounds about right for the joyless world he imagines his ideal society would represent.

Edit: TIL about the US copyright office website’s ai generation info on works. That’s a thing we will be making a bunch of use of, I imagine.
My pal dug these up:

They have issues providing commentary and caveats, and are in Chinese, ofc. And also take all of this with several boatloads of salt.
Apparently there are two GitHub repos up with strongly conflicting information on what happened, this is gonna be a three-buckets-of-popcorn incident.
They added sleeps to training jobs? Sounds like they deserve a raise for improving energy efficiency instead…
I would definitely hate to be burdened with an IQ. Such a terrible thing to be born with
A pal posed the theory that Matt Wordpress acts like he got ejected from some polycule and now I can’t unsee it
I’m temporarily-boating up to Boston
It’s the parable of the drowning man turning away all help because god will save him, all over again (except it’s floods and mudslides and forest fires)
Yes we do AGIle: we ask ChatGPT what our customers want and then ask it to write software to fulfill those requirements. Every two weeks it writes up some imaginary sprint retrospective meeting notes. Planning poker doesn’t work so well, this iteration isn’t so good at bluffing yet.
The industry called it “field engineering” previously, and “customer support” prior to that; renames happened every time the execs heard how this portion of their business is only a cost center and can easily be done by chat bots (to which the customer success people would say, good luck with that).
Ok but is the orange wallpaper better in HD?
Eh, it’s destroying a common good to extract resources (landscape / minerals, electricity / numberwang). I say the shoe fits.
Cold fusion only needs another 10 years to bake, but then it’ll be awesome.
I live like 15mi from there, I would prefer the containment bubble to stay intact. But the tech bubble is welcome to go blow up any moment
Huh. Say more?
