The study did find a correlation between prior experience and performance. One of the developers who showed a positive speedup with AI was the one with the most previous experience using Cursor (over 50 hours).

I read the article (not the study only the abstract) and they were getting paid an hourly rate. It did not mention anything about whether or not they had expirence in using llms to code. I feel there is a sweet spot, has to do with context window size etc.

I was not consistently better a year and a half ago but now i know the limits caveats and methods.

I think this is a very difficult thing to quantify but haters gonna latch on to this, same as the study that said “ai makes you stupid” and “llms cant reason”… its a cool tool that has limits.

Hey! Having some issues with my Ford C-Max (2007) and wanted to ask if anyone's had something similar happen.

So the car starts having trouble when I shift into first and give it a bit of gas - if I give it too little gas it just dies. Now it's started doing the same thing in second gear too. When I first start the car and let it idle, the RPM drops every 10-15 seconds or so (from about 900), but it gets better after running for a while.

Got the yearly checkup recently and everything was fine, but then this started happening. Also got a check engine light that keeps going on and off every other day. It's pretty cold here, like 5 degrees if that matters.

I'm going to take it to a mechanic when I have time but wanted to ask here first if anyone knows what it might be? Maybe the MAF sensor or something with the idle control?

Thanks!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Weirdly enough I’ve found it much easier to print on linux. It just works out of the box.

If it doesn’t it is definetly the printers manufacturer fault 😅

A concept which aligns nicely with Solarpunk. 🙂

This is the beach our 1st level characters landed on in our Eberron campaign. It's one of the islands in Shargons Teeth.

I don't know about you but I was just waiting for an excuse. I ain't ever going back. It's a brave new world for me, part of shifting my whole suite to FOSS. Leaving the old internet behind me.

Recently, I've been playing a fairly complicated character and wanted an easier way to navigate all the myriad spells available. I had a certain system in mind, and a quickness that wasn't available from the source site. I used an already compiled list maintained in a Google Sheet by Kyle Dixon to export to a TSV, then a couple of lines of JavaScript later, and voila! The perfect web frontend for all my spells.

My incredibly talented wife is offering a selection of her work for free on her new website https://bubbla.art!

She always has a focus on making art available to everyone by offering some of it for free. This includes #coloringpages, #papercraft, and more. It has been an absolute privilege to be a part of my wife's process. She has enjoyed tremendous success, focusing mostly on local projects in Iceland, like a card game that encourages young readers to read (http://lestrarflodhestar.is/), beautiful whale products which have been hugely popular (https://bubbla.art/product-category/whales/), and she recently held an art show. The reception of everything she has done these past few years has just been amazing! She has some of her work being sold in places such as Spilavinir, ABC Spilavörur, Whales of Iceland, Elding Adventure at Sea, used by the Reykjavík City Library in their #spilað_og_spjallað initiatives and much much more!

I'm very happy to contribute to her success where I can. Apart from being a sounding board for some of her fantastic ideas, I have been able to assist in some of the more technically oriented aspects; most recently setting up the bubbla.art website. Initially, I built a site from scratch using #HTML + #JS + #TailwindCSS (https://tailwindcss.com/), running on #nodejs, fronted by a #caddy server (https://caddyserver.com/), all in containers in Amazon Web Services (AWS). This allowed for absolute control over each line of code and every aspect of the site, but when it came to integrating payment providers, the available solutions required a bit too much effort so I decided to rebuild the whole thing using WordPress + NGINX + #Apache + Custom #CSS. This allowed a reasonable level of control with the addition of being able to easily integrate payment providers, SendGrid emails, etc. To track the metrics of the site, I deployed the very fantastic #ackee (https://ackee.electerious.com/), a privacy-focused analytics tool. It's awesome because it gives us the numbers we need without compromising visitor privacy, running behind a Caddy server, in containers in AWS.

Check out her site https://bubbla.art/; I'm sure you'll like what you see!

Now imagine moving there as a foreigner from a normal country and someone telling you their phone number! It's like having a micro stroke.

No we can not. This is fucked up. It's one rich guy's hobby:

Stumbled onto to this while looking at some art by https://dwdesign.tumblr.com/, specifically the album art https://www.instagram.com/p/CofGC50oaPE/.

Was not disappointed.

So I've spent a bit of time over the past few years trying to reason my way trough society breaking away from our capitalist overlords.

Let me try to summarize some of my thinking as simply as possible; you start a second economy, one founded using Blockchain technologies and algocracy, with an utter focus on human welfare and ensuring resistance to tampering and unjust accumulation of power and wealth. You siphon the global population over to this new economy effectively stifling the old economy where the totality of the 1%'s wealth resides and is therefore rendered worthless.

The above is by no means a complete summary and there are a bunch of other concepts loosely associated with this such as environmental sustainability, transhumanism, degrowth, fostering small communities etc.

I've written about DACs, one of the components of the above here: https://sturlabragason.github.io/blog/2023/07/04/Decentralized-Autonomous-Communities.html
