It means making yourself more attractive by smashing your bones and micro dosing meth while receiving payouts from Peter Thiel

Damn right.

I haven’t interviewed anywhere in nearly a decade, but damn, the human interaction part is so important. These are your potential future coworkers, a vibe check goes both ways.

I don’t think I’d even do the first automated interview, tbh. If a human is going to be involved in hiring me down the line, they can damn well be present while I’m answering their questions.

I’m a couple years younger than you, but a lot of this resonated for me. Custom installers were some of my early inspirations for making apps that didn’t have the traditional gray box aesthetic.

However, I will say that Kenshin was a thing in the US. Samurai X was only the name of the OG movies where he was still lethal AFAIK.

The DNC made clear today that all Democrats, including millions who are AIPAC members, have the right to participate fully in the Democratic process, and we plan to do just that," AIPAC spokesperson Deryn Sousa told ABC News.

All those AIPAC members can fuck off, their money is going toward perpetuating war and genocide.

Citizens United, and PACs in general, have done nothing but make this country’s politics more and more toxic and here the DNC couldn’t even pass a symbolic resolution against one of the worst of them.

Yeah, couldn’t care less if Chrome is faster when it is controlled by Google and actively working against extensions.

Not to mention we crossed a performance line maybe 10 years ago where browser engines on modern processors are basically trivial. Once we started having 8+ threads and the browsers got smart enough to leverage them, I’d bet bandwidth (or memory if you have many tabs), is a way more typical bottleneck.

I read the post, but as I mentioned elsewhere, how are devs (or malicious commercial thieves looking for public domain code) supposed to detect this code is an LLM creation when all of the obvious signs they mention are stripped?

A ban on people using an LLM in secret is unenforceable and the code output can be indistinguishable from a human’s, especially when a real human that understands the change is there to baby it and write commit messages etc.

How are the devs or anyone else supposed to tell that though, if all the LLM trappings are absent?

That seems pretty good to me? I hate LLMs, but this policy is basically “if it’s obviously LLM garbage or you don’t understand it, it will be rejected” and I’m not sure it’s practical to do better.

People will use LLMs behind the scenes, but if they are able to write a coherent justification with clear understanding of the code, receive feedback from devs and rework it, as well as submitting code that is well structured etc. it’s not really any different than any other PR.

No, that women will dress provocatively and then shame people that actually look at them.

Also been enjoying Pokopia and have totally fallen prey to the “I’ll just wander around and rebuild stuff” play style, completely ignoring the story until I feel like I have to get to the next zone.

10/10 would wander aimlessly spamming blocks with Pokemon friends in tow anytime. I can’t express how happy I am to have something to do other than beat the shit out of cute animals to capture them.

I really don’t have any problem with any of these types of achievements in general. Even the super basic ones that you get by starting a game are useful to determine what percentage of people who own the game have actually played it beyond the menu screen.

The best achievements are ones you get for being clever, skilled, or dedicated. Or when it’s an unhidden achievement for something you didn’t even know was possible. Like the BG3 achievement for saving the goblin Sazza - just seeing it was possible made my next play through more interesting.

I do appreciate long ending achievements, but only if they indicate a significantly different playthrough. Good ending vs. bad ending works when that’s the result of many decisions and not just an option you chose ten minutes from the end.

Eh, it makes sense for Steam share, this data is entirely gaming users. It would be a mistake to try to relate this to overall market share though.

I’m also generally skeptical, but the fact that it’s a coupon code and a token amount makes me think it’s legit. You shouldn’t need to give up any personal info to redeem a coupon.

Death panels are a classic example of criticizing socialism by describing capitalism.

Yeah, I picked that up, but is that so novel it can’t just be a layer on DBus or something? Again, I don’t know shit, it’s just rich IPC seems like a solved problem at this point.

This is cool, love to see the Haiku / BeOS lineage playing nice with Linux. The graphics stack is ripe for experimentation in the KMS/Wayland era, although I don’t have enough knowledge of the architectural differences to know why this makes sense as an alternate stack and not just a compatibility layer built into a Wayland compositor…

Take that! In 20 or 30 years…

I’m the kind of person that doesn’t even hear lyrics in music, game voice logs might as well be white noise to me. On the other hand, when the scene tells a story without words and you have to connect the dots yourself, I find that satisfying. Even basic examples like a corpse reaching toward the glowing red button.

Not that these are wrong, but I wonder about recency bias. Have these indicators been trending downward for 20 years, or is this just a response to our current crop of morons?

If Obama v2 was elected tomorrow, would these instantly reverse, like the international opinion seemed to when he took over from W?
