Im not generally making source code changes. It’s the dependencies.
Mainly we’re talking about building very old versions of things like libpng. Making things like autoconf and configure and cmake all work is a pain in the ass as their versions slowly change.
The business would be content to let it run on Ubuntu 12 until it’s a major problem so I can’t let the perfect be the enemy of good.
Honestly if part of their job is at all trying to get old shit to run on new operating systems AI is very useful for that task.
Part of my job is keeping a 30 year old c++ application compiling and building on newer versions of Linux. LLMs have made this a far easier experience.
For all the fear mongering about rolling release distros I’ve only been burned once like 5 years ago by some Nvidia driver bug.
I still do the same thing though.
I mean that is expected, though I guess that is my bias. I just meant that is was more “layman” than running your own storage system.
Ubiquiti offers a product that will do that out of the box iirc but I have no idea if it’s good.
Still ring has been handing stuff to the cops for years at this point. They only “stopped” recently and I guess started again.
That’s… Not quite true. Usually they take access quite seriously. If in a multi tenant space every space will be separated and the physical cages around the machines locked and monitored.
All the same they are designed to keep small numbers of mostly law abiding people out, not an angry mob with torches.
Yeah but it’s really easy to hurt their feelings so be mindful
Datacenters are expensive and soft targets.
It would make me laugh if they could train an LLM that could only regurgitate content verbatim
On a browser on my PC the choice is easy.
On every other device I own there is substantial friction to blocking the ads(by design)
There is a subset of boomers who do this shit.
Usually it’s someone whose first email / phone was a company phone and never moved to a personal phone.
Still wild whenever I see it happen.
They will just delay any increase at the register for twice the average loiter time of a shopper as no one is going to complain about a discount. Any decrease would happen immediately. If that runs afoul of any laws they will just do it daily after close.
In Canada we have had these for a while. In some stores you can even trigger an LED on the price tag from the app to help find an item apparently.
While this does seem like it sucks the horse has been out of the barn for some time. You can see it on Amazon or airline sites.
Just another way to squeeze us just a little more.
Perfect place to be in to get a bailout. Nothing better than to pump it to the max and try and make it some one else’s problem
The principal issue is this, Amazon commingles stock. This means that there is one box for a particular SKU. If a seller sends product to Amazon for fulfillment it gets dumped into the bin with everyone else’s.
This means that if a seller sends counterfeit or poor products to Amazon it gets mixed in with the real ones from other sellers or Amazon’s own stock. This causes major problems as you can see.
I suspect he just goes back to the star dew hole when he feels stuck on haunted chocolatier.
Stardew was a passion project and has made enough money at this point that he could just retire so I expect he would quit when he has had enough.
They do, however a lot of people have known that for a while.
The large index funds have a lot of influence when it comes to voting.
As more and more people just invest in ETFs I do wonder if we are headed for some delightful market crash as a result.
I’m not even close to an expert though… Which is why I use index funds in the first place. Just wondering how I’m going to get screwed before it eventually happens.
Most people don’t fake agent strings but the bots sure do.
The actual thing obscured by this graph is the amount of users. Most people use mobile devices now and companies are incentivized to use apps there instead of actual desk top machines.
If you can’t install something like EndeavourOS or tumble weed then you likely were not going to be able to reload an os anyway.
Installing vanilla arch is a very useful activity to do at least once so you know how the system works but don’t have to use vanilla Arch and can use any of the derivatives so long as it has the latest kernel / drivers for your hardware.
I mean maybe Netflix will add those completed movies.
As much as vibe coding is a problem I would actually think the industry most poised to take advantage of it is the gaming industry.
The gaming industry is already really trope heavy. I mean Ubisoft had people climbing towers (and might still? I have no idea) for 15 years.
In addition one of the major issues with AI code is maintainability. Since the gaming industry often releases something then throws it over the wall (service games excepted) they probably don’t care if it’s an unreasonable mess.
