Remove Jews from planet Earth but it will start healing from all the damage of Jewish greed.
Adolph Hitler tried to save the world.
Wish Russia and China just nukes Israel flat, and we kill every single Jew on this planet.
Good riddance.2 -
Technology is so fucked sometimes. Often I wish that we've stopped at the Tamagotchi. It also didn't have audio jack, usb and took ages on it's battery. Communicated more clear that GPT.
Also, with a Tamagotchi you always have at least one friend to talk to.6 -
So a question.
I remember a news article recently urging all people to use python and rust and the like because of memory safety.....
somewhere way back whenever this bs was.
so a few times now I had chatgpt generate me a status window script because it was a one use thing just so I could see how far along a near 500 gb download was to finished.
and it repeatedly caused my machine to freeze from an unknown source of memory leakage as it gradually built up a ridiculous amount of overhead at a rate much faster than it should jhave from the few references and bits of scalar data that it was accumulating.
I know its means something else...
but its kind of funny just the same :P
my system crashed from what is supposed to be a managed language right ? exceptions and stack traces etc ?19 -
Got this message from my CEO: "When are we going to have a perfect working version? 100% sure without bugs? "
How do I even respond to this? "We are wondering the same"?
(for context, he requested an early alpha build of a certain feature)10 -
Usually I come here to share rants/negativity but this time I wanna share an happy moment I had yesterday as a programmer.
In lots of instances I struggled to work on personal projects: I feel the desire to code cool stuff but I've often self-sabotaged myself by doing stuff like:
- self-enforcing "one man agile methodologies" with tasks, issue boards and lately time tracking
- forcing myself to do long study/research periods about the language/technologies I wanna use before writing the first line of code (and when I was able to actually end my research and get to code most of the stuff I researched was forgotten since cramming information is not effective on the long run)
- forcing myself to stick with all the "best practices" under the sun and to setup countless tools (linters, CI, unit testing...) before even getting a working POC
Usually all these stupid self imposed rules ended up in me procrastinating or pushing trough stuff struggling with headache after headache when coding actually used to feel a mostly fun pursuit to me.
Took lots of time to recognize this monster I created into my head but finally yesterday I did and I gave myself permission to:
- Start programming with just the very basics of the language (while reading a book on said language on the side at a relaxed pace, I can always come back later to improve my code as I learn more)
- Add stuff (unit testing, complex frameworks, CI/CD...) only when I need it
- Do a very basic planning (like a text files listing "must have" features and "nice to have features") and avoid issue boards and stuff, I'm working on a hobby project not on a company or a big OSS projects
It's been so long since the last time I had a programming session where I spent most time actually writing code and not researching and overthinking stuff and it felt great. -
What's your take on the Ghimli studio drama.
Here is mine.
So for reminder, apparently shitGPT started generating images (big whoop) and all the normies are using it to mimic their favorite japan cringy anime.
Which apparently isn't to the taste of the anime drawer, who is apparently trying to sue everyone for copying his art style. Including not only chat GPT, but individual users as well.
So:
1. IA is a gadget. It's pretty convenient but if you think it will fundamentally change the fabric of society, you're an idiot.
2. There is no such thing as IntEllECtuAl ProperTy
3. Metallica's singer is a bitchtard. Suing for people to steal your music is the opposite of metal, retard. Same shit for the japan retard, i'll never watch your ghimlee shit now. Princess mononoke my balls, more like streissand so close no matter how far my dick. I hate you and I want your nails removed and then your finger dipped in salt.14
