These are the Model T of androids my dude.
lifetimerubyist··on Creators of Tailwind laid off 75% of their engineering team
The “community” doesn’t decide what goes into the project, TailwindLabs does. Tailwind is not a community developed project. It’s a project that sometimes accepts outside contributors when they feel like it and the are under no obligation to do so. You did work that nobody from the project asked for and you’re throwing a fit because they have different priorities and said they don’t want it. They don’t owe you anything.

It seems you have fundamental misunderstanding of how open source works and now you’re throwing a fit because you’re an entitled brat.

Take the L. Learn a lesson. Grow and be better.

lifetimerubyist··on Kernel bugs hide for 2 years on average. Some hide for 20
NT is actually a pretty good kernel. NTFS and the userland is what is shit.

He gives a gift to the world and you’re telling him to just give it up because somebody did work nobody asked for and he doesn’t want it for his project

Get a grip.

You have no way way of knowing if that is true whatsoever.

lol the capitalist bloodsucker brigade has arrived, they're almost as bad as the entitled "open source community" bloodsuckers

lifetimerubyist··on The creator of Claude Code's Claude setup
I'm sure this works for people and I'm happy for them but this sounds like absolute hell to me.

Just take out everything that I like about SWE and then just leave me to do the stuff I hate.

The end goal is to have these things be general purpose do all sorts of jobs everywhere. Civilization is designed around human anatomy, so if you want to replace humans with a drop-in robot replacement in as many places as fast as possible then a humanoid robot is how you’re going to do it. It’s also probably more cost effective to design 1 robot that does everything, than design 1 robot specialized for 1 task. Specialized robots will fill in gaps, but humanoids will be the vast majority of the AI-based robot workforce.
lifetimerubyist··on Opus 4.5 is not the normal AI agent experience that I have had thus far
Opus helped me optimized a wonky SQL query today from 4s to 5min. Truly something that only a super intelligence is capable of.
lifetimerubyist··on Stop Doom Scrolling, Start Doom Coding: Build via the terminal from your phone
ha, I've recently been studying the original DOOM source code - does that count?
lifetimerubyist··on Vietnam bans unskippable ads
I always wondered about traditional television. People like my dad still have it. It still has a shitload of ads. They're unskippable. People don't really seam to care about those for some reason though.

lifetimerubyist··on AWS raises GPU prices 15% on a Saturday, hopes you weren't paying attention
"oh you dont' want to use Bedrock? You want to do something that might vaguely compete with our offering on our infra? Fck you, pay me"

Buy your own hardware while you still can.

lifetimerubyist··on Welcome to Gas Town
My keyboard doesn't randomly input "banana" when I type "apple". If it did, it would be considered extremely defective.
lifetimerubyist··on Pink Power Ranger takes down white supremacist dating sites
I’m not white but I’m also not stupid enough to think that only white people have ever been violent oppressors. Shame on you.
lifetimerubyist··on Google broke my heart
they won't, they don't care in the slightest
lifetimerubyist··on Brave overhauled its Rust adblock engine with FlatBuffers, cutting memory 75%
The adblocker was already written in Rust.
lifetimerubyist··on Welcome to Gas Town
I was trying to be patient, hoping this entire thing would collapse sooner rather than later - but now I think I'm just going to start planning my exit from this industry forever.
lifetimerubyist··on Welcome to Gas Town
If babysitting 30 claude agents is the future of professional programming I want zero part of it.
lifetimerubyist··on All AI Videos Are Harmful (2025)
Yeah I don't care how cheap/expensive Coca-Cola is.

I care how expensive ram and gpus are though and this ain't helping.

lifetimerubyist··on I switched from VSCode to Zed
I switched from VSCode to Zed and clicked the "disable AI" button so gd fast. Bliss.

Somebody needs to be able to repair our new overlords until they can repair themselves.
lifetimerubyist··on Web development is fun again
If you have customers that will put up with things being slow as molasses and crashing al the time, well….can you send some my way because mine won’t STFU about it.
lifetimerubyist··on Claude Code On-the-Go
If programmers think they can just learn a trade, they’ll bein for a rude awakening when Elon comes for their jobs next. Optimus will be doing your plumbing by the time you graduate from trade school and get your paper and internships.

The ownership class sure did a number on the white collar working class.

“I don’t need a union, I can negotiate my wages and working conditions just fine on my own”

lifetimerubyist··on Claude Code On-the-Go
Have fun trying to afford the necessary hardware to run open models acceptably. The big labs are trying to make sure we won’t be able to in short order.
lifetimerubyist··on Claude Code On-the-Go
Join a union.
lifetimerubyist··on Claude Code On-the-Go
You can just say no.

We need better chatbots to fix the bugs from the current chatbots that fixed the bugs from the previous chatbots when they fixed the bugs from the previous generation of chatbots that…..

Just give Sam Altman more and more of your money and he’ll make a more advanced chatbot to fix the chatbot he sold you that broke everything.

You don’t even need to own a computer, just install an app on your phone to do it all. It doesn’t matter that regular people have been completely priced out of personal computing when GPT is just gonna do all the computing anymore anyway.

Clearly a sustainable way forward for the industry.
