Yeah one person can do only limited (at least constructive) change. And that likely takes time, but also consider generational shift. I think it’s very likely the dems will slowly (depending on AOCs popularity, faster) shift more progressive. Let’s hope the democratic system isn’t entirely degraded till then, and Trump get’s less popular as well.
So just bury the head in the sand and let the world (or at least US) collapse (i.e. uncontrolled climate change, entire degradation of the social system to capitalism)?
As audiophile as I am (own very expensive (> 1k) headphones for instance) and additionally I’m musician/producer.
I don’t think you can hear the difference between 320kbit bitrate vs flac in a blindtest (this is important, to avoid biasing yourself). I could notice what was a 128kbit mp3 and flac in a blindtest and already that was minimal (and is likely mostly related to the 16k cut-off of 128kbit mp3), but 320kbit, nope…
If you notice a difference it likely has to do with different mastering/LUFS etc. not the compression artifacts themself.
I recommend ad-blockers (ublock origin), I haven’t seen ads in like years on my devices.
Or millenia, if at all…
Too bad, that long-term users still kind of decide the fate of the company (as shareholders at some point realize that their share probably is not worth it).
I’m really keen to see when this happens to Tesla, I’m thinking about shorting the stock, it’s so vastly overvalued, and there’s strong competition and sales are crashing everywhere (because of too much Nazi)
So I guess it means now, that if you’re still undiagnosed in the US (and suspect to be autistic), better don’t let yourself diagnose… Sad times…
And yet… His net worth is still around 370 billion dollars, more than just around half a year ago…
I mean yeah for non-white people maybe. But teenage German girls, that’s a novum
Dark MAGA in the process…
The future looks dark for Murica
My brother did this accidentally… twice… Don’t ask me how you manage to do this twice…
TBF there are ways to completely disable updates in Windows (I just did in my VM because it should literally only run 3 programs which are not working with wine)
I’ll use it also often. But when the situation is complex and needs a lot of context/knowledge of the codebase (which at least for me is often the case) it seems to be still worse/slower than just coding it yourself (it doesn’t grasp details). Though I like how quick I can come up with quick and dirty scripts (in Rust for the Lulz and speed/power).
Ughh I tried the gemini model and I’m not too happy with the code it came up with, there’s a lot of intrinsities and concepts that the model doesn’t grasp enough IMO. That said I’ll reevaluate this continuously converting large chunks of code often works ok…
Not sure about the communities you’re visiting, the subreddits I seldom visit (because enshitification) have rather smart people.
Basically, the industry is not investing in new blood.
Yeah I think it makes sense out of an economic motivation. Often the code-quality of a junior is worse than that of an AI, and a senior has to review either, so they could just directly prompt the junior task into the AI.
The experience and skill to quickly grasp code and intention (and having a good initial idea where it should be going architecturally) is what is asked, which is obviously something that seniors are good at.
It’s kinda sad that our profession/art is slowly dying out because juniors are slowly replaced by AI.
but it can be a very helpful assistant.
can, but usually when stuff gets slightly more complex, being a fast typewriter is usually more efficient and results in better code.
I guess it really depends on the aspiration for code-quality, complexity (yes it’s good at generating boilerplate). If I don’t care about a one-time use script that is quickly written in a prompt I’ll use it.
Working on a big codebase, I don’t even get the idea to ask an AI, you just can’t feed enough context to the AI that it’s really able to generate meaningful code…
It’s definitely better than say a year ago, but it’s always a new small issue. Like suspend is not working, or shutting the monitor off crashes the graphics stack etc.
I really hope they get their shit together and build a solid wayland support at some (not too distant) time. But the amount of issues is small enough for me that I’ve switched to it.
Probably should’ve been “installing and using nvidia drivers”.
Independently of what your position to vibe-coding or LLMs are: Vibe coding just isn’t any programming paradigm. A programming paradigm describes the structure of the program, often on a grammatical (programming language) level (e.g. declarative vs imperative). While “Vibe Coding” can lead to using one or the other paradigm, but is not a paradigm itself, it’s a tool to achieve that, similar as using an IDE with code-completion to generate code.
