I feel like we’d see a lot more progress if these types of comments were higher up in the chain, instead of buried at the end of a conversation. I see a lot of ridiculing people for not knowing this stuff, a la: https://xkcd.com/1053/

I understand it’s the ignorant masses’ responsibilities to educate themselves. But like, we could all stand to make it easier on one another instead of jumping down each other’s throats all the time.

Also this isn’t directed at you in particular, just in general. I just liked your response, and I wish more people would give answers like this.

I was gonna say, having my code reviewed by senior devs and SMEs was the single biggest factor in me progressing as a developer. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t research and try things by yourself first, but having your code looked over by expert eyes will point things out to you that could otherwise take years for you to learn to notice on your own.

LLMs can’t just run chromium unless they’re tool aware and have an agent running alongside them to facilitate tool use. I highly suspect that AI web crawlers aren’t that sophisticated.

I think what they’re trying to imply is that Canonical is setting this all up so they can create a (possibly paid) fork of coreutils that spys on its users.

When there’s just two “teams”, yeah. What’s more fair than majority rule in that situation?

Making money on merch/patreon can only happen once your channel is established though. Until then, YouTube creators are dependent on ad revenue to keep them going, and probably operate at a loss until they reach the point where they can supplement that ad revenue. Trying to get yourself established on a platform that doesn’t offer any ad revenue is a much harder sell.

You can save quite a bit by getting a refurbished Pixel - looks like the cheapest “Google certified” option (so it comes with a 1-year warranty) is a 6a for $250, which is nearly half off MSRP. I’ve been using my 6a since launch, so it’s been going for 3 years now and I have no desire to upgrade.

You can definitely get cheaper smartphones, but $250 for a 6a feels like a pretty big bang for your buck.

No, installing magiclantern on a jailbroken camera means you don’t need to do the Canon sign in bullshit at all.

I don’t think people are out here doing their banking on their Canon DSLRs

You can remark on how that orange is closer to red, and how that one is closer to yellow though

Yeah I find LLMs most useful to basically read the docs for me and provide it’s own sample/pseudocode. If it goes off the rails, I have to guide it back myself using natural language. Even then though it’s still just a tool that gets me going in the right direction, or helps me consider alternative solutions buried in the docs that I might have skimmed over. Rarely does it produce code that I can actually use in my project.

They sell gameplay and not graphics and that’s timeless.

No, they keep rehashing the same like 4 IPs over and over, feeding off the nostalgia kick people get out of their favorite childhood video game releasing on a modern console

Hey, that’s not completely fair. They added a C-button that activates GameChat, so you can take up space on an already small screen to watch your friends stream their face or their game at 9 frames per second. Oh and also a microphone. Revolutionary stuff, really

🙄🙄🙄

presidents don’t have unilateral power, and members of the president’s party can do and say things different from the president

This is how American politics has worked for hundreds of years. Yes, the president (really the executive branch) holds a lot of power. So do the other two branches of government. One branch can’t really do anything without working with the other two, which means that compromise is a frequent theme throughout the history of American politics.

And? Despite what Trump says, presidents don’t have unilateral power, and members of the president’s party can do and say things different from the president

You know that Kamala isn’t the only Democrat in existence right

If they have the ability to accurately detect/enforce any of that, I’d be way more impressed with their fingerprinting techniques than any of the hardware they’re selling

Yeah, maybe. A lot of that is also probably people that put up someone’s 80 hour Minecraft vod on repeat to fall asleep to

And they only switched from using a black box to a cloud so it was less scary looking for the marketing types

Does victorinox offer sharpening services? Some knife manufacturers have programs where you can either send your knife in or take it in to a store and have it professionally sharpened.

If your blade is losing its edge quickly, it probably needs to have a new edge put on it with an actual sharpening, v rather than just the touch up it gets from a honing rod.
