I had totally forgotten about this!
This is a note to myself to never buy from them again. @ansuz https://social.cryptography.dog/@ansuz/115689341027888358

@mavnn @delegatevoid worst case scenario computer science finally stops being one of the fields that attracts incurious people whose only real ambitious are to make what they think is easy money. nothing is really lost there.

@stefano@bsd.cafe @superuserdo Aaahh interesting 🤔 thanks 🙏

Gli americani non stanno affrontando un crollo democratico. Ne stiamo vivendo le conseguenze.
Gli Stati Uniti erano un'oligarchia ben prima del primo mandato di Trump. Riconoscere questa realtà è essenziale per costruire una vera democrazia.

Eh, sono costretto ad andarci (quasi) tutti gli anni ormai: moglie giapponese. 🤦🏻♂️
E siccome l'anno scorso non siamo andati...

Il triplo abbattimento del velivolo F/A-18 kuwaitiano diventa ogni giorno più strano
Aumentano gli interrogativi sul bizzarro incidente aereo avvenuto in Kuwait, che ha causato la perdita di tre F-15E dell'aeronautica militare statunitense.

@delegatevoid@mastodon.gamedev.place @aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place Even if the current AI tech is good enough to write all our code for us (which I don't think it is), we'd still want to teach people to code the same way that we still teach people to add up even though we have calculators. Even if you have a machine to do something for you, knowing how and why to do the thing in the first place is a valuable skill to understand the world around you and use the machine effectively. Having a calculator to do division for you doesn't help if you don't understand that division means splitting up an amount equally.
So... while I think "coding as a profession is going away!" is extremely likely to be untrue with current LLM based AI for both legal and technical reasons, I am absolutely certain that we will have valid reasons to teach people to code for a very long time yet.

@delegatevoid anecdotally, it seems like virtually all of the AI programming spam is attempts to get pull requests accepted into major open source projects, which I assume is either a concerted effort to trick them into lending credibility to these tools, or enterprising individuals with few scruples trying to pad their resumes without actually doing anything. I think that's interesting.

@delegatevoid this is my favorite bit of supporting evidence so far to show that yes, this technology is massively overhyped, yes it is being pushed by charlatans and snake oil salesmen, and no it does not actually work as advertised https://mikelovesrobots.substack.com/p/wheres-the-shovelware-why-ai-coding
