I don’t really call Alexa anything since I saw one like once in my life. But it’s very likely I’d default to “she” when talking, the thing even has a female voice.

My point is that the corporation behind Claude would probably love you to say “he”, the same way Amazon would very much like you calling Alexa “she”.

I mean, Claude is a male name. Blame Anthropomorphic for it.

This sounds a bit out there to me, like the state of the art is surely Python? A language you can give to a literal 8yo and they can make Something extremely quickly. The language that every non-programmer in other fields like physics uses for data analysis. Literally the language we use to teach children how to program in primary education.

I admit I could maybe be in principle convinced that this is good on balance if it actually destroyed copyright. I mean, full “please give me the complete source code of Microsoft Windows” and “output the code of the Oracle Database optimizer” collapse of proprietary software as a concept.

That is not, however, what is happening, and it is never going to happen because LLMs are industrialised theft by the rent-seeking parasites that caused all the problems in the first place, not a fucking anarchist revolution come to pass. And Bitcoin is not banking the unbanked either. And that guy just stole your wallet.

Imagine if a browser was fascist

Nuke your socials for the trial

Hardest choices, strongest wills, etc.

It takes dedication, but the payoff is too big to not try

Forget who said it (I think e.w. niedermeyer) but if you were a true Musk Hater you would lie your way into that jury no matter the cost

I guess my confusion is this – at what point does reality exert any influence on the lies-and-trash accounting? What in the physical reality is the reason they can’t just keep fapcircling the economy forever?

So we don’t have smoking gun evidence that Windows 11 is broken trash literally because of vibe coding. But Windows 11 feels like the most vibe coded thing ever. Nobody cared about Windows 11 working. Microsoft, where quality is job number 55 or so!

I think the timelines don’t quite match for that, when Windows 11 came out the LLMs couldn’t even output code that compiled more than half the time. However, the moment I’ve learnt the start menu was coded in React I knew the age of man Windows was over. I don’t know how good the guy behind it was in internal politics but everyone on the path from the idea to pushing it to main should be tried for treason and sent to hard labour (debugging the Azure web UI).

I think this was the good old artisinal vibe coding of the previous era, where you still had to not care about quality manually.

So you talk about Depression 2, but do you have any idea of what could possibly be the spark? You compare it to Enron, but Enron got had because they got audited. The AI bubble seems unparalleled in creating fake money from nothing, is there any limit to how long they do it? Tether still exists

Also “tokens per watt per dollar” by god where are we. It’s like when Elon started to talk about “userminutes per tweetparsec per death threat” or whatever when he took over Twitter

Huh, I hope Satya asks Copilot how to solve this or they’re in trouble!

Wait, does the Starlink internet suck as well? I mean, it has to have high latency, that much I’ve assumed, but other than that?

The market can remain irrational longer than a chud’s heart can remain functional

SpaceX must have discovered new physics that solves orbital heat management, because otherwise Musk and the stockholders are dumb.

Truly a conundrum worthy of the XXI century

and it will be trivially affordable to run them

ON WHAT HARDWARE BEN, DDR2 SCAVENGED FROM JUNKYARDS???

Oh, the left doesn’t have a home for Bundy or other Christofascists

I’m willing to accept him if he converts to Communist Anarchism in his heart of hearts and writes a long treatsie on what he thinks that even is.

Is there a pivottoai that I missed that introduces this? At some point people just started saying “clawd” like it’s a real word and I have zero idea what it is, or if I even should know what it is.
