<evil grin> use an LLM to interpret the CI definition and ask it to generate an overengineered stub that simulates your CI environment and then call that every time?

(yes I've seen people do that 🤷)

@armb
A share certificate 🙂

Cache machine 🤔

I know it's just a typo but my brain now can't stop thinking about what a cache machine would be 😂

Genuinely one of the best reads I've had in a long while.

Thanks for that!

@foone
That's right there with Bobby Tables.

K9 and Thunderbird have merged. They appear to be the same except for branding.

I have had K9 on my phone forever. It went through a massive UI redesign during the merge, but I keep getting updates and that does not seem to change.

+1, would buy, have had to dismantle and clean my das keyboards (both of them) with water and soap more often than I care to admit!

@mirabilos
Possibly, I'm not hung up on the percentages. A lot also depends on the model being used, of course; some have better results than others.

@mirabilos
Nowhere in that text do I say it is perfect or resembling the quality of a human doing the same thing. In fact, I explicitly state it gets things *mostly* right "about 95% of the time".

Mostly is not entirely.
95% is not 100%.

Also, these are gut-feel percentages, not statistically sound ones.

Don't quote me out of context, please.

See @bkuhn is under a lot of stress currently because of the @conservancy LLM-gen-AI stuff.

Hey Bradley, ❤️. I can see you're feeling under attack. Don't take it personal. People are emotional now, and are saying things they might otherwise not.

Don't fan the flames. It's going to get better 🫂

understanding the problems. Someone suggesting LLM use might not be aware, and *personally* I would rather try to educate them before banning.

But you do you. I don't pay you, I'm not your boss, and I won't think less of you (if you care about that, which you probably don't and that's fine) if you do ban at first sight.

🤷

Any community can do anything they like. Some things will not make said community healthy, but that's their problem.

Anyone arguing they should be allowed to do something because conservancy said so is just trolling, and is clearly only selectively reading things. Ban that on first sight, sure.

At a technical level, LLM tech can seem like magic. It's easy to see only that and think it's a panacea without @conservancy

@wynke
(For my non-Dutch-speaking followers: in Dutch, the word 'kombuis' means 'galley', as in, ship's kitchen...)
@Aprazeth @alice @riverpunk

@dalias
Maybe that's not what it means to you, but that's how I read it.

I'm happy to learn you see it that way, and assume you practice what you preach.

However, I have seen people shun right away on first sight of even daring to mention the concept of AI. I don't think that's useful, and I understood that guideline to mean that you shouldn't do that.

If it doesn't then I agree with you that it's not helpful. But I don't think that's the case.
@conservancy

@mirabilos
Totally different story. I'm not opposed to banning such people. In my reading, that's also not what SFC is suggesting.
@dalias @conservancy

@zhenech
Yes.

I discovered that rolling AC is surprisingly cheap, and only needs a window and a power socket. And works quite well, too.

@zhenech
And no built-in heating in most homes in this country...

@wynke
As a Dutch language native living in South Africa, I have a bit more exposure than I used to before my move.

My favourite tidbit: the Afrikaans word for kitchen is 'kombuis'. Think of how the people who speak Afrikaans got here in the first place, and you'll love it.

Well today is fine but yesterday it was *cold*.
