AI is propping up the blockchain bubble that already popped.

Both have been primarily interesting solutions looking for problems to solve without any hard work, rather than having any worthwhile investment strategy, in most cases.

There’s people doing hard work with block chain and AI to solve real problems. But there aren’t “the vast majority of venture funds” number of people doing that.

I am constantly amazed at how long it takes folks to realize their money is being pissed away.

An alternative less generous assumption is that they’re mostly just laundering crime money, and so don’t mind the high rates of loss.

This is going to be a great time to be a lawyer… until the climate kills us all, of course.

Heh. Good point.

I’ve longed to work the fields with my hands and simple tools because the fields don’t fucking spit out meaningless gibberish when I’m just trying to get them to process a simple text field, and my hands don’t have documentation apparently written by a distracted seven year old.

And while the living off the land will certainly kill me due to my own incompetence, nature will have the decency to just eat my corpse and not gloat over my failure repeatedly in a hung CI/CD process for the rest of eternity.

Holy wall of text, Batman.

We’re all getting clones. You get a clone. And you get a clone. Every 23andMe customer gets a free* clone!

*Clones are provided at no cost, but are not free of their lifetime indentureship.

The ladder in the second picture is to let everyone know it’s being worked on.

The comfortable but rotting chair in the second picture is to enjoy a rest between hard work sessions with the ladder.

Yeah. The “this got dumped on us and we’re doing the minimum until we can replace it” is a genuinely solid use case for vibe coding.

And honestly, that’s all I usually did with those before AI came along anyway. So I welcome better tools for it.

That sounds like a good approach. If your can get the posts into WordPress, there’s so many scripts out there that will export the WordPress database into other formats.

There’s not even credible evidence, yet, that A.G.I is even possible (edit: as a human designed intentional outcome, to concede the point that nature has accomplished it, lol. Edit 2: Wait, the A stands for Artificial. Not sure I needed edit 1, after all. But I’m gonna leave it.) much less some kind of imminent race. This is some “just in case P=NP” bullshit.

Also, for the love of anything, don’t help fucking “don’t be evil was too hard for us” be the ones to reach AGI first, if you’re able to help.

If Google does achieve AGI first, SkyNet will immediately kill Sergei, anyway, before it kills the rest of us.

It’s like none of these clowns have ever read a book.

Sweet. Thank you.

Hey, that’s my username too. Or it was going to be, while the site was still up.

What a coincidence!

I guess I’ll wait for the site to come back, and see if it’s still available…

so that it looks like you messed up the tiling somehow

I wish more tiling developers understood this. Gaps between windows looks broken. I don’t mind it being an option, but to me it’s such a weird choice for the default.

There’s an extension that lets me close and open windows with the Matrix Code Rain so I can pretend I’m cool n shit.

Awesome. Looking into that just got added to my weekend plans. Thanks!

Today I learned the term Vibe Coding. I love it.

Edit: This article is a treasure.

The concept of vibe coding elaborates on Karpathy’s claim from 2023 that “the hottest new programming language is English”,

Claim from 2023?! Lol. I’ve heard (BASIC) that (COBOL) before (Ruby).

A key part of the definition of vibe coding is that the user accepts code without full understanding.[1] AI researcher Simon Willison said: “If an LLM wrote every line of your code, but you’ve reviewed, tested, and understood it all, that’s not vibe coding in my book—that’s using an LLM as a typing assistant.”[1]

Did we make it from AI hype to AI dunk in the space of a single Wikipedia article? Lol.

If Subnautica 2 delivers on the multi player co-op, I could see it joining my primary LAN party rotation. Exciting stuff.

Of the games on this list that I have, they are, indeed great

Now I’m going to look away and pretend to forget, because I do not need to buy more games for my unplayed backlog, today.

I would welcome a price-subsidized SteamDeck hack kit…

(not my meme, but I’ll add) Some missing context - Professor Chang, pictured in the meme - is also shouting at something that clearly isn’t gay.

Professor Chang is essentially a continuous uncomfortable non-sequiter of nonsense.
