Speaking of trains, that's another thing they don't do. The auto-snapping of current location consistently snaps to whatever road or goat track it can find nearby, while equally co…

> most of us *some of us. This is one of the differentiators (can’t find a better word right now). Some became software developers because they enjoy(ed) the process. Some became s…

I’ve only seen this snippet (on phone so no source access), but var + no fat arrow could also indicate someone who learned js a long time ago and use as what they’re used to.

> Rather than go to a FISA court for approval, we just hack your box and take your data. You are equating illegal behavior with legal behavior. We do what we can to avoid the legal…

That’s when you ask it to write tests to a good coverage, and then have it reimplement everything with the tests still passing…

Couldn't the same argument be made for Chrome suddenly including a bitcoin miner? Seems like that would be a difference in degree rather than in kind.

I know it's not for everyone, but it is also a reasonable touring bike if done within its constraints. I've probably done closer to 40 days on my 16" Brompton, longest was a two-we…

One obvious argument is what it was trained on.

Vibe coding and copilot inserted the ad-code into that PR? Is that the most charitable way?

> That's not augmentation, that's a completely different game Not saying that this comment is ai written, but this phrasing is the em-dash of 2026.

> still under the jurisdiction of the US regime Exactly, this seem pointless for people serious about staying away from US owned data stores. I know first hand of EU based business…

Just this weekend it (Gemini) has produced two detailed sets of instructions on how to connect different devices over bluetooth, including a video (that I didn’t watch), while the …

> I do create an ephemeral Apple ID every time I get a new phone In other words, you do have an in-use apple id at (pretty much) all times.

No, I want to read it (or not) the way the writer intended.

The 57 km Gotthard Base Tunnel has been in operation since 2016. There's also a 3km long tunnel between France and Italy that opened in 1882. Nowadays there's probably hundreds of …

While I agree completely with the conclusion, for obvious reasons we can’t know for sure if it is correct about the future until we reach it. Perhaps asking it for wild ideas rathe…

Laziness is one of the three virtues (of a good programmer), but I think Larry didn’t anticipate the current situation when he wrote it: ”The quality that makes you go to great eff…

The ”historically” does some lifting there. Historically, before the internet, mass media was produced in one version and then distributed. With AI for example news reporting can b…

Especially combined with the AI companies focusing on the destruction of value of human creative output.

I’m probably an outlier: I use chatgpt/gemini for specific purposes, but ai summaries on eg google search or youtube gives me negative value (I never read them and they take up spa…

In addition to that, how many lakes would need to be pumped or would it be a feel-good project for famous lakes?

> leave US clouds The pressure to leave US controlled cloud providers actually started way back with the US Cloud Act. I’ve been surprised that that process has been as slow as it …

China is trying to grow their influence around the world, while the US is trying to reduce their influence around the world. From where I’m sitting in the EU, both seem successful …
