I prefer that over yet another AI blog post

Big AI player promotes AI through blog to make AI look better woo

This is reasonable up to the point of lawmakers suddenly deeming rainbow flags just as bad as drugs (Russia as an example). Your example may work in well intended countries but completely ignores that a country can VERY easily shift into a regime that does not have good ethics abusing these kinda laws.

A small example would be to set the device into "kiosk mode" which many companies use for their employee devices too. Prevent app installs, check what pages ur kids visit with their browsers and whatnot. Just make sure to be open about it so you don't hurt your kids by violating their privacy and trust towards you. Hell we even got parents having their kids take air tags with them so the parents know where they are.

You have a kid, you have responsibility for that kid. In Germany we have a term "Aufsichtspflicht" for this, which roughly translates to duty of supervision. Up to a certain age of the kid parents will be made responsible for damages your kid caused. One pretty funny example of that was a kid spending 1000s of Euros on a MMORPG because the MMO offered a payment option that allowed people to pay through their phone bill. Parents could've easily prevented any of that happening, but in that generation it was pretty common that kids were tech savvy while parents couldn't be bothered to learn about computers, which imo already is problematic.

Nowadays there are many many ways to supervise your children's online access. And yes, there are also many many ways for kids to work around that too, but ultimately if you buy your kid a device with internet access, you should try to supervise that. Parents need to care more about what their children are up to, instead of silencing them with a tablet for a moment of personal silence.

Its the same thing with Europe allowing scans of private chats now. Nobody would tolerate a person opening the letters from ur physical mail box and reading through each of them just to see if you do [insert illegal activity]. But once this stuff happens digitally, people seem to simply tolerate it. If I remember correctly, in 2019 there were huge protests against upload filters were people actually protested on the streets in Europe. Now there is almost NOTHING for chat scans, NOTHING for age verifications, NOTHING for making Android less open. Its really frightening what the general public tolerates nowadays.

The journey is often whats most fun to me. Just walking somewhere with friends without worries in our minds. The pub visit itself is usually short lived for us. Can't imagine having to walk in a non-green area though, really sounds depressing.

Sounds really nice, I live 1.5 hours from Hamburg and might just visit the Stadtpark for the first time in my life due to this post. Soonish the concert season begins again as well so Ill be in Hamburg more often from there on out anyway.

Moin!

Yea I'd agree. I hate configuring things or setting up custom scripts that could make things easier for me and yet I still work productive on my day 2 day tasks.

Also used neovim for 2 years or so and hated every minute of it having to configure LSPs and wwhatnot. I now use a mixture of VS Code and IntelliJ and its good enough for me.

I kept using vim motions however.

Hope the areas around you were just as lucky, thanks for the update!

Yea seems pretty bad given its on the higher end of the scale... I might be naive but I hope nobody died

Nah vanilla Javascript is fine as it was built to make stuff more interactive on the frontend side, which it works great for.

This should be the way. For some reason, over time, it became harder and harder to build web apps. Tech should be about making things easier though. I don't know where we went wrong.

I refuse macros for the same reason. Sure they can be handy, but usually they make code harder to read too.

Sure but this analogy is weird. I dont have to cook my own pasta in a restaurant, would be a counter analogy which is just as unfitting.

Hmm I could try that, but honestly I dont see why I should pay 30€ a month for an IDE that I have to manually tweak for :/

Claude can smd

What teammates?

Nah Lenovo ThinkPad

That actually is helpful, but it would require a git history that actually makes sense. I rarely encounter well thought out git histories. For me its often just dev ramblings or 10 word commit messages

I was thinking of unsubscribing from IntelliJ just today because my file tree doesn't update for like 5 minutes when I create new files with my terminal. Its utterly broken.

Guess I must be doing something wrong to never have encountered this issue in my 5 years.

Why would that matter if a bug is uncovered? If you know there's a bug just fix it? Like what use does the bugs history have?

How is the history relevant? Honest question. 5 years in the field I never had a reason to check out the git history of any project I ever worked on.

Code should at all points be easy to reason about. Is SIMD easy to reason about? No.

It always is about money. As long as there's money it will always be about it. LLMs are big techs attempt of shifting money from the people further up, by getting rid of jobs. We're all not angry enough because some of yall are so delusional about the whole thing, by thinking we will get some kind of Utopia.

And yet ChatGPT wasnt able to find a solution for the 24 game with the numbers 1,4,7,6 just a few days ago.

Hmm maybe the tool has but the design of the website made me squint as well.

Whats different to US models then? They can also be taught to introduce stealthy backdoors. Its not like stealthy backdoors are a Chinese only topic.

Yea but it introduces a lot of issues for space travel and other satellites. The useful space in space we have is extremely limited. A single company shouldn't be able to just clutter space at will.
