Because AI in this case is the opposite of help, in case Illecors wasn’t clear enough.

It’s almost like it needs a dedicated person to hold its hand as it does your job. I wonder who would be well suited for that task.

It likely doesn’t help that the kids use “AI” as slang for “bullshit”.

Yes, this is true, and I have preached this in the past, but…

They’re not treating it as a cache. Most of these apps don’t function with less ram.

It’s just inefficiencies stacked on inefficiencies. And yeah, they didn’t matter a ton at first, because our hardware was advancing fast enough to handle it. But at some point we should really go back and visit a lot of this stuff.

A 2014 computer should have gotten better at all the basic tasks that existed then, not worse.

The Windows 11 start menu being built on React is a good example. Insanity.

I mean, optionally they could set up a tiny dev shop with that amount and submit the PRs they want to submit. And at worst, they could maintain their own fork.

It’d be a public service in more ways than one.

5 million a year would go a long way towards making their open source solutions meet their needs.

anti-China and anti-Russia

Uh huh. Yeah okay.

We’ve had enough projection for a lifetime this decade.

Remember r/reddit ?

Reddit removed every comment he had ever made, including wonderful and well cited rebuttals of the right-wing bigotry of the day.

Probably more of the motivation than the listed offense.

As part of the community team for LW, I’ve worked towards this goal as long as I’ve been here. I do not have the authority to make it policy.

But considering, A. There aren’t that many big communities, and B. Users seem to hate any kind of moderation anyway, it doesn’t seem like a big stress point at the moment.

The users have demanded that US news should be allowed in World News because anything that happens in the US affects the world. And, uh, I’ve tested this and it seems to be consensus. I hate it, but any mods that tried to enforce something sane have left, and the users have gotten their way.

I guess everyone just browses all anyway, for now. So they don’t want things removed that have comments regardless of where it’s posted.

If you can read it, they can read it. They have root on the company device.

We have .ml propaganda blaming our only hope of resistance for everything the Nazis do.

It’s not much different from the projection tactic the GOP use. Just in this case it’s “you didn’t stop it”.

As part of the LW Community Team, I’ve tried to combat this in a couple ways.

One is that when we need moderators for a community I don’t just put up a post that says “who wants to mod?” Instead I try to draft specific individuals one at a time who are relevant to that community.

You wouldn’t believe how many people just tell me no. They have time to post to Lemmy a dozen times a day, but they just don’t have time to mod c/threepostsaweek

The other is that I try not to just keep recruiting mods we already have. It’s very easy to turn to the people already doing the modding and ask them to pick up just one more, but we’ve seen what that has done to Reddit, and I’d rather not repeat it.

But all this takes time and effort, and it doesn’t seem to have much effect yet. I probably just need to keep at it.

It might be some sort of vetting to know all your users are real people.

I’ve considered setting up a Lemmy/Piefed for my neighborhood, but I’ve been told I’m unlikely to get the neighborhood off of our very active Facebook.

Will this LLM detection be something my LLM prompt can include?

Nvidia is the stock.

Good luck with the timing. The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.

That old autocomplete is great. It’s specifically the AI autocomplete that’s less useful.

Wow, well it’s absolutely terrible at A. B is worth a shot, but it’s 50/50 to bullshit you in my experience.

Eh, I’ve enjoyed writing a SQL query and having AI translate it to Linq. I’ve had at least one work directly, very clear on what it’s doing, just with Linq’s odd syntax. The other query was more complicated and wasn’t something that translated well to Linq. I may have had to split that into two Linq queries.

Then again, I wouldn’t count translating psuedocode (or SQL) as really vibe coding. To me “vibe coding” means you’re not really looking at the code it produces.

Yeah, I just wrote a blog post comment about how I enjoy using Copilot. But that’s when I explicitly ask it a question or give it a task. The auto complete is wrong more often than it’s right.

Probably doesn’t help that if it was tedious, boilerplate code I would have already explicitly asked it.
