Intended to write an LLM position statement on my blog but didn’t get around to it today
I'm further convinced (I was already pretty decided) that auto-closing issues/PRs is a bad idea. Searching for closed issues on a particular project, which auto-closes "stale" issues, and the search results are overwhelmed with issues which were closed without resolution. In this case they're at least labelled as such; but it's still a mess.
Kids buy an old plasma , but there’s something haunted burned in, everything they watch is tainted
Someone should write a ring-like movie that uses screen burn in as a plot device
@mirabilos @venthur @Ganneff @wouter be gentle with Planet, folks. It’s been going for over twenty years!
Instead of storing my data in the cloud, I just store it in the bush. It's the same thing, only palette-swapped. More accessible, too.
Actually - and this isn’t hyperbole - it’s worse. Instead of wrangling one app you now need at least three. One of which is Activity Monitor because you are required to terminate a bunch of processes beginning ams* from time to time.
can I report that syncing stuff onto ipods with Finder is JUST as awful as it was with iTunes.
Today I took out an old pair of Bose on-ear headphones. The Bluetooth functionality is shot, possibly just the battery, but they work fine passively. I forgot how great they sounded. Bose don’t make them anymore and I haven’t seen any modern ones of this style. I think I’ll try to replace the battery.
@werdahias I recently completed a large LaTeX document. I had bound ',m' to rebuild my thesis (called Make which called make in a sub-process and watched it from a small split, and the make called latexmk, etc. etc., it was a hairy ball of glue) and that was really nice 90% of the time and a pain to fix the other 10%. I keep reading about LaTeX tools, packages etc that would have made my life easier after I'm done :-)
So the user actually found a memory leak in #curl (using a fuzzer) and reported it correctly. All good.
Then, in a follow up comment the user makes the ugly choice of trying to "help" us with this bug by asking an AI for help and proposing that as a solution.
And again it broke horribly and the AI made up a broken patch that did not even fix the problem.
Now that reporter is banned.
