@davidgerard i'm doing a seance and you're all invited
15+ years ago, I worked out how "understanding natural language == having and experiencing feelings", more or less. it's almost a direct consequence of the halting problem.
i will summon our boys gödel and turing and together we will craft an evil incantation to destroy these fuckboys

@davidgerard I have no idea if it was *before* that. But it kills any notion of it ever coming to anything from this point on, yes.

@tante @davidgerard getting rejected by linus for being too much of a prick and deciding my life is fucking over and crying all the way to the bank

@davidgerard "I already was a fucking stupid nutter 15 years ago" isn't quite the flex he seems to think it is.

@davidgerard
Okay apparently they were pushing big features last minutes in merge windows ; experimenting a bit too loosely in the wrong moments ; showing themselves kinda unpredictable and not respectful of the mainline timing and guidelinessee one late PR : https://lwn.net/ml/all/CAHk-=wi2ae794_MyuW1XJAR64RDkDLUsRHvSemuWAkO6T45=YA@mail.gmail.com/
That get accepted at the price of splitting with kernel : https://lwn.net/ml/all/CAHk-=wi+k8E4kWR8c-nREP0+EA4D+=rz5j0Hdk3N6cWgfE03-Q@mail.gmail.com/
And the dramatic Love/hate response : https://lwn.net/ml/all/xl2fyyjk4kjcszcgypirhoyflxojzeyxkzoevvxsmo26mklq7i@jw2ou76lh2py/
@theodora @davidgerard he wouldn't respect the kernels pulling policy and a cavalcade of social ineptitude piled up about it. -
@theodora @davidgerard was so fucking disappointed recently when linus posted specifically to call out this wonderful mm maintainer whom i adore for deleting a literally unused gitignore file because it would lead to time travelers suddenly seeing build outputs and accidentally committing them and like:
(1) you literally have the most powerful tree of reviewers in human history ensuring people do not accidentally commit build outputs and things of that nature
(2) why are you fucking wasting your top-level maintainers' time bookkeeping for the version control system you fucking wrote instead of fixing your fucking vcs so this doesn't happen? -

@theodora @davidgerard can't fucking wait for the grapheneos kernel. not gonna happen soon but micay has been edging it for years. when he says the kernel is unserious about security he means they're just unserious since security is a whole-of-society concept for him (and he's right). i stan daniel micay to death i would walk over broken glass for him

@davidgerard I'm just a humble linguist but like, just because OP's autocorrect made them feel meaningless and like they're obsolete OP shouldn't project that onto everyone else

@davidgerard well somebody is deeeeeeeep into the kool-AId

@kaasbaas @davidgerard The wonders of the steam age! vibecoding a filesystem!
A filesystem.
A filesystem.
Not something casual and relaxed like a DBMS, something important that absolutely, positively, MUST be correct.
Vibecoding a filesystem.

@davidgerard It's weird how people who generally think humanities education should be abolished, don't want slavery acknowledged, want to see mass unemployment and the removal of consent for the use of creative works and find new and interesting ways to justify de-personing people based on skin colour or immigration status, keep on finding new ways to try and assign personhood to a chatbot. Nobody else deserves it, but this text generator agrees with them, so they do.

@aeva more like extremely dirty water but in principle yes.

Who else is in Montreal for #FediMTL? Let's meet up! I'm around until Wednesday.

@def thank you!

@Abstract_Bit Cose buone da Jeffries 🙂 Grazie a te.

@joel@tumfatig.net great, it seems it’s working. Are notifications working now? You probably need to logout/login again.

@Zoufalec@mastodonczech.cz @Ptakobouda@mastodon.social Thank you for your feedback! The Apple Intelligence logo appears when a media has no description. On supported phones, you can tap it and have the Alt Text generated locally by your own phone. It’s supposed to help when the original author didn’t set an alt text, so the reader can have an idea of the media contents. To be honest, it’s not great - at all - and sometimes it produces some weird stuff. Maybe things will improve, but that’s not much I can do (except using external LLMs, and I’m against this)
-
@aeva no. glad I could clear that up for you
