I honestly don't personally know any real-life person who acts like that - they're either just not scared of cool infrastructure, or they're the occasional 'patriot' freak who's nationalist/racist enough to consider Japan a threat too.

Leave the straw-man circlejerking to the rightoids, comrade.

[...] allegedly throwing an improvised incendiary device that ignited part of an exterior gate before fleeing the scene on foot.

The suspect was ultimately located about an hour later near OpenAI’s headquarters, roughly 4.8 kilometres (three miles) away, where he was allegedly threatening to set the building on fire.

ngl disappointing performance. If you're going to do an adventurism by yourself, which I generally don't advocate for tactical reasons, then at least make it worth the prison time.

"If we allow your flag, then we have to admit also other similar political flags, both supporting and opposing diversity."

Consider the following: no, they don't.

Programming is one of those skills and industries that is accessible enough that basically anyone can do it, but you will run into trouble later if you're doing anything serious without learning how to do it well. There are hundreds or thousands of ways to make something work, but if it's an unmaintainable mess or you don't even understand how it works, then we end up with our financial institutions running COBOL in 2025. Good luck when regulations change. Have fun when your operating system becomes unsupported and you have to replace the underlying dependencies. Hope your boss doesn't sue when they have to hire people to rewrite your hackjob.

And these were all already problems before AI code came onto the scene. We had the programming equivalent of script kiddies, people who would blindly copy and paste code from web searches without even reading the date or the comments saying "this is bad and this is why". But this probably makes it even easier to do, and possibly harder to spot. Combine this with how many universities don't even focus on lower-level languages so you get plenty of people who can't understand how to fix any of the trickier errors in their code. And that's not to say everyone has to be able to, but it's a problem when so few are able to. So these programmers are unlikely to know if the code has problems so long as it passes their tests, and unlikely to know how to fix those problems when they become clear.

Automation tools are good ideas for assisting and detecting possible mistakes. They're not good at generating that much code. In fact, that amount of code in that amount of time is suspicious, hinting that it's unlikely to be well-designed, maintainable or efficient.

hey i want to be your mayor but ill just fuken leave the whole state if that other guy wins

What a dedicated and loyal representative of the people!

To be honest, and it wouldn't work here, but I sometime enjoy the cryptic nature of iceberg memes at the lower ranks. It's like a scavenger hunt.

I hope some of you actually skimmed the article and got to the "disengaging" part.

As Electrek points out, Autopilot has a well-documented tendency to disengage right before a crash. Regulators have previously found that the advanced driver assistance software shuts off a fraction of a second before making impact.

It's a highly questionable approach that has raised concerns over Tesla trying to evade guilt by automatically turning off any possibly incriminating driver assistance features before a crash.

Headlines are being headlines, I get it, but Fry was repeating a joke:

“I heard a very good joke yesterday,” the QI host, 67, told Stig Abell on Times Radio on Thursday.

“Someone said, ‘Musk is not a Nazi... Nazis made really good cars,’” he went on, before bursting out laughing.

The Wikipedia page on East German jokes has a few Trabant jokes.

• What's the best feature of a Trabant? – There's a heater at the back to keep your hands warm when you're pushing it.

• A new Trabi has been launched with two exhaust pipes – so you can use it as a wheelbarrow.

• How do you double the value of a Trabant? – Fill it with gas.

• The back page of the Trabant manual contains the local bus schedule.

• Four men were seen carrying a Trabant. Somebody asks them why? Was it broken? They reply: "No, nothing wrong with it, we’re just in a hurry."

• How do you catch a Trabi? – Place a piece of chewing gum on the road.

Which is why you told someone this hour that they shouldn't be considered human.

IMO, the worst thing about "Minetest" is that it sounded like it was just a test creation, a prototype or experiment. It's certainly well beyond that now. The announcement introduction mentions people associate it with being a Minecraft clone or alpha release, but even further, to me the name initially gave me the impression it was [still] someone's small hobby project. 'Luanti' is much better.

pls no more punchlines in the title!
