In what's not visual or intended for interaction, I find the beauty in the elegance.

@Lensflare Shouldn't rar also handle zips...?

@retoor Oh yeah, the deepsearch mode. I may have had to use that.
The problem wasn't dependent at all on business logic. It was literally the years old "rebase a branch and take the tags" question. Even simpler, as I had just some tags and never more than one per commit.
About learning from the AI... I didn't. In this case, any part of the given solution (if we can call it that) was rubbish. I thought it would find more info about git internal files and some stuff I had never touched... it didn't, it was as perplexed as I was hahaha
Looking forward to being on Snek a little more. Life's been a bit down lately.

Wait, they might be onto something.

@Lensflare Thank you for saving me 5' of my life.

Great, less WEIRD AI.

Adding Instagram to the fucking list. It started showing me videos from all around the world in my language, with voices and text translated.
It is a very good idea, but I hate software being forced on me (even more if it's unwanted AI), soo disabled.

@BordedDev This happens to me on YouTube every so often. Either that or also that I open a video by a YouTuber I know and suddenly the voice is in Spanish?? Shut up!!

Maybe the contrast in high brightness is bothersome. I not only use dark modes, but as low brightness as possible.
Also, working with very low light or very illegible things (like dark mode can be sometimes) makes you force your focus and that's also not good.

@djsumdog Hey, coming back here after remembering your mention of archive.is, can I know the reason of your preference?

And as the world comes crumbling down it's youuuuu that I liie wiiith 🎶

@Liebranca ¿Provincias Unidas? Listo me rindo.

@Liebranca Me mataste.

@djsumdog Good question.
And responding to @whimsical , may be, but does devRant have that much relevance to crawlers?? Maybe they have good SEO... (strange, as it is not maintained, and SEO strategies change? Maybe once you're indexed, then you're relevant for long...? Like a kind of "the hardest million is the first one" thing.)

¿Quién sería el hombre carpincho...?

It's ugly, and not opinionated. I think most hate is because of that. And also it has some weird stuff like T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM

Water

Oh my, I read "Catching a cruel mistress"

Since tha.dawn(?) of AI, there were ways to check AI-ness of stuff.
I hope we never run out of those...
What's more incredible to me, is the writing playback. 💀 I find it quite funny, and I hope my professor doesn't use that, because it's gonna be a little embarrassing hahaha

Wait, so totals should be on the bottom, or on top? I prefer on top.

I really like Suno. I made a couple songs some time ago. About uploading to YouTube, did you know you can download them as videos? It's true! Tho' you may be careful about the new regulations as to what content can be used commercially.

@wojtek322 I have been fed a lot of YouTube AI generated channels reading Reddit posts. Started dislike-ing them so I don't see them anymore. I remember consuming long form videos of voice over Reddit in 2020, and even then they were... lacking every so often. Like, reading numbers wrong or cutting sentences.
My take is, it's gonna be hard to _find_ new quality content. Or at least, it won't be possible to make quality content on areas AI slop takes over, like sharing cool Reddit posts. I know this content is lame, but who knows what content comes next...
Kurzgesagt made a video about something similar some weeks ago. Well, not similar, but it mentioned the "competition" between AI slop and quality content... hm... putting it this way, it's not something new, really. But I just recently experienced it, beyond _knowing_ about it.

LinkedIn level slop

@whimsical You may learn from AI, but most people surely don't. My brother got a Python script a couple days ago to make an Excel file from ChatGPT and asked me to execute it. You can be sure he hasn't learned ANY Python.

Granma just wants the credit. Old dogs don't learn new tricks. Courses are for credentials, learning comes from oneself.

@BordedDev @retoor kiss already

Maybe part of the cure is recognising that even if they are vulnerable, they are safe, and that even if one feels vulnerable, they can (and probably are atm) be safe too? Idk just thinkin.

I'll ++ because it's such a bad rant it's too funny.

TIL there are many more alternatives to devRant than I thought.
I really like devRant tho'. Like, really.

Maybe they are not "better" than you, but "better" for them (cheaper, expendable...)

@whimsical I used it for a project in which we had a Java app with a WebKit interface. We could install all dependencies, and the tests were run on a VM apparently. That VM could be switched on on its own (only a terminal), and we even installed (or discovered?) Firefox to be able to work on the interface without waiting for the whole app to compile on each change to the JS/HTML/CSS. We were 5 people working in real time, we could see the cursors and stuff... it was a dream! It was 2021. Sure it was not super powerful but for academic projects, it was the whole package.
Again, I don't know if this is not still the case, all I'm complaining about (and that got me so mad) is that there appears to be no way of creating a new app without prompting something.
