Or: strenuously avoiding a national ID system, because of how obviously that could be abused. And probably still hacked anyway.

It is possible to do such an ID system sensibly, fairly, and for considerable net good. But we wouldn’t.

As if that Nazi is only playing double Nazi as a complicated scheme.

As if we can take for granted that this agenda won’t be enforced.

I keep trying to manually write code that I’m proud of, but I can’t.

That’s normal. That predates LLMs. Honestly, that predates compilers.

Basically every aspect of LLMs has been overblown - positive and negative. They obviously have some utility… which the self-proclaimed haters will never acknowledge, and want you to feel bad about using. But the robot will never match Sam Altman’s cocaine fantasies. It is buck-wild that ‘what’s the next word?’ works anywhere near as well as it does.

When Microsoft was still pussyfooting around, training on Github’s GPL projects, and their model occasionally spit out entire stolen files, it all seemed pointless. Now, years later - there’s a guy on Youtube who built a camera that visualizes laser pulses in-flight, and halfway through the video he laughs and hand-waves the code for it. Another guy builds video-game aim-bots that physically move the mouse, the table, or his musculature, and similarly brushes off the part where the computer does stuff.

We have programs that write programs. That’s just a thing, now. If the bubble pops tomorrow, it’s not going anywhere, because local models will run on a Raspberry Pi. (Admittedly that example was an art project where the AI waxes poetic about mortality until it runs out of memory and reboots.) We’re in a stupid manic phase, but a decade from now, spicy autocomplete will be just another tool. F7 for spellcheck, F8 for grammar check, F9 for the Dixie Flatline to do his best at whatever you ask while he’s kinda drunk.

I never saw it as getting hate. I just saw that the PS2 existed.

The Dreamcast was cancelled before the PS2 even launched.

“Don’t feed the trolls” has never fucking worked.

They just escalate.

… but maybe remember the bigot’s face, and wait for him to stop filming.

Ehhh.

Let Discord leave your phone.

Or possibly a late-model F150.

Is that a guy laying on top?

Add a turret to combine external combustion with very external combustion.

The answer remains, this tool is not flawed, it’s just not the one you want.

Vim could be feature-complete and formally verified and I’m still using Xed.

Notepad in Windows 7 occasionally did some weird shit.

You cannot criticize a good knife by asking why it’s not a hammer.

Didn’t help Bleem.

which is how they killed Ryujinx.

Plus sending goons to his house.

Allegedly.

This is a crime.

Never give Nintendo money.

Easy: they’re looking at who those workers work for.

Those folks are having a grand old time.
