Am I supposed to feel bad for Adobe? The only better news this week was that someone wants to buy EA, with leveraged buyout. I'm not praising today's AI, but some companies just can't go down fast enough.

They tag 25-30 GH accounts in each issue, looking for applications. Apparently they ran out of candidates.

Financial software is the one of the last ones that I want to be written by LLMs, as long as they claim that loading a 10GB file into memory instead of reading it line by line is memory efficient

Look into the Arab Spring countries - I mean that one or two that didn't fall back to their old ways. Tunisia would be one, if I recall it correctly?

I can't read the article, and I wouldn't be surprised if it would be mentioned: OpenAI has hit $10B ARR just a few weeks ago - which is nothing to sneeze at, but it's at least a magnitude smaller than their expenditures... it's not exactly sustainable economically.

I guess MS (or Oracle) will finally acquihire them in the next half year

I wonder if it stops working as a TV when it runs out of cyan.

They seem to have quite some problems in the past days, I see lot of connectivity issues continuously - even when it loads, it is very slow.

I pray the deal won't be altered further.

I just installed it on my EndeavourOS box. I opened it, it asked my which theme I want. I couldn't click, and suddenly it went into unresponsive mode. A minute later I killed it and uninstalled it.

I keep trying this editor every few months ever since it was announced, but I always have similar experiences. I remember once I managed to start actually editing something before the GUI started to disappear.

But hey, it has AI.

One of my favorite guilty pleasures. The list is pretty chaotic, but very easy to waste a whole afternoon browsing it...

Is this basically a prompt library, spread across a big number of repositories?

Edit: my second click was on the link next to the CrewAI "Stock Analysis Tool" usecase, which lead to a 404. The curation has some room for improvement.

I know someone who is Aries. Can you imagine?

Excellent. So we have the bug-infested btrfs which just lost its main maintainer, and the unfinished bcachefs, which just lost its maintainer, not exclusively due to the main btrfs maintainer.

ext4 has been legacy for 25 years... and apparently it's here to stay for another 25.

I work almost exclusively with embedded devices, with low level code (mostly C, Rust, Assembly and related frameworks) - and that's where I also ask for help from LLMs.

3 days ago I saw another Claude praising submission on HN, and finally I signed up for it, to compare it with copilot.

I asked 2 things.

1. Create a boilerplate Zephyr project skeleton, for Pi Pico with st7789 spi display drivers configured. It generated garbage devicetree which didn't even compile. When I pointed it out, it apologized and generated another one that didn't compile. It configured also non-existent drivers, and for some reason it enabled monkey test support (but not test support).

2. I asked it to create 7x10 monochromatic pixelmaps, as C integer arrays, for numeric characters, 0-9. I also gave an example. It generated them, but number eight looked like zero. (There was no cross in ether 0 nor 8, so it wasn't that. Both were just a ring)

What am I doing wrong? Or is this really the state of the art?

I remembered! It's Cascade of Attention Deficit Teenagers

I'm not disagreeing with you at all, but unfortunately this is nothing new - pretty much every software gets rewritten all the time. They reach about 80% of the features of the obsoleted originals before they would be abandoned for something shinier.

There was even some expression coined a few years ago, but the exact wording escapes me... "attention-deficit-teenager-developer-syndrome"? Something like that...

WTF is TFR?

I don't think it's any different than attributing the compiler or the text editor. I don't do either of those, and I also don't attribute LLM generated code.

Lol, I would be very surprised if 4chan has ever turned even a single cent of profit - they couldn't pay it even if they wanted to.

Regardless, they are in the right, such policing is just madness

I'm a millennial, and in case an unexpected call is answered on my phone, that means that my phone is stolen. I don't even remember when was the last time I answered a surprise call. I think that was in the early 90s I think, when I was in kindergarten still...

I don't answer any calls, and can't fathom why would anyone do that... never happened anything good from that.

It would be interesting to see statistics about these bugs from MS from the past 2 years: how many were written by LLMs and how many were written by humans.

But the weather-background in the gmail web interface has been buggy ever since gemini has been added to its interface. I guess we can have almighty AI, and bugs that even first day interns can solve at the same time, for eternity.

What a time to be alive.

Did SoftBank make any bet in the past 2 decades that worked out for them, beside Arm? Whenever I hear that SoftBank invests in a business, I can already vision the headlines about their bankruptcy or their sale for a fraction of their original price.

I consider this one of the last nails in Intel's coffin - though only because of my superstition (prejudice?) about SoftBank.

Wouldn’t plots in movies/novels involving humans require trigger warnings, as they may distress those who lost jobs to other humans?

I'm in Europe, and it seems to load just like usual.

This mentality brings you a loading screen when you start the calculator on windows.

Gotta admit, the title is misleading, it's not a job ad submission.

Slice-of-life episode at StackExchange - SE advertised a position, and an applicant describes his/her experience.

Submit it to the people whom you are targeting with your project. Explain them why your tool is better/different than the existing tools, or what kind of (so far) unsolved problem it solves, and then just sit and wait for the girls to fight for your number.

It's very long, and seems to be stuffed with a copy of wikipedia, I ain't reading all that. What's that clause? Like Lucas had with Star Wars, they kept the monetization rights for some (at the time) dumb looking stuff, and they struck gold with it?
