hey those are my gripes with much of modern computing, give them back! I’m gonna tell mom

so much more software needs a “I know what I’m doing, shut the fuck up” button

my first thought on hearing the same was "if this is what he's like in public, imagine what it's like at home"

I fucking love how goddamn structured kym is ito semiotics and symbolism

it's an amazing confluence that might not have happened if persons unknown didn't care, but they did. and thus we have it! phenomenal

til a new word

Assistant: I apologize for the confusion. It seems that the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet is not the correct one for your network. Let's try to determine your network configuration. We can do this by checking your IP address and subnet mask:

there are multiple really bad and dumb things in that log, but this really made me lol (the IPs in question are definitely in that subnet)

if it were me, I'd be fucking embarrassed to publish something like this as anything but a talk in the spirit of wat. but the promptfondlers don't seem to have that awareness

so I snipped the prompt from the log, and:

❯ pbpaste| wc -c
    2063

wow, so efficient! I'm so glad that we have this wonderful new technology where you can write 2kb of text to send to an api to spend massive amounts of compute to get back an operation for doing the irredeemably difficult systems task of initiating an ssh connection

these fucking people

glancing at their profile, they have "what if I were king tho", something that claims to focus on "sensitive use of language" (it links to "wokism")

oh and to really add that flavour, they have this at the very top of their profile:

As of 26 Jul 2024, I have a new plan to get a job in 2025, a new plan to save democracy from itself, …, and …. And it all started on Wikipedia.

Applications of genetics, such as exploring ethical boundaries related to Eugenics... and maybe someday doing it right.

just a real winner of a human being that everyone would definitely want to be around

(e: jesus fuck I just looked at that political party too. wat.)

Even as far back as AI Dungeon he was claiming they had an intuitive understanding of physics

omfg, every day a new opportunity to learn things that hurt my brain even more. how the fuck can someone have looked at that shit with even an ounce of understanding of gradient descent and think "yes! it has COMPREHENSION!"???

fucking hell, what an utter fucking moron

Yes, yc

It’s not favourably thought of anywhere outside its walled garden of sycophant techbros. When it is, in fact, thought of. Which also isn’t much, because its sphere of relevance is extremely small

"you cannot conclusively disprove that we do not need more money and that we're full of shit, so you absolutely have to give it to us so we can keep the racket going"

""" just as They have erased the pyramid building knowledge from our historic memory, They just don't want you to know that Prolog really solved all of this in the 80s. Google and OpenAI are just shitty copies - look how wasteful their approaches are! all of this javascript, and yet... barely a reasoned output among it all

told you kid, the AI Winter never stopped. don't buy into the hype """

by decades of our industry clapping at brainless

secondarily, the remarkable thing here is just how tiny a slice of industry this actually is (and yet also how profoundly impactful that vocal little segment can be)

e.g. this shit wouldn't fly in a bank (or at least, previously have flown), or somewhere that writes stuff that runs ports or planes or whatever.

but a couple of decades of being worn down by excitable hyperproductive feature factory fuckwads who are only to happy to shit out Yet Another Line Of Code... it's even impacting those areas at times

some days I hate my industry so fucking much
