Yeah, I think there was some efforts, until we found out that adding billions of parameters to a model would allow both to write the useless part in emails that nobody reads and to strip out the useless part in emails that nobody reads.

I love how even this flagship feature is just one more lazy shortcut to another app that bloats the context menu 😅

I think it’s worse at conveying the intention and should be a compile-time simplification (I’m too lazy to check if compilers would do it though).

😮‍💨

AI assistant tools probably won’t push us on the right direction for this one. (Or maybe they will by encouraging people not to import a different library for any 6-lines function they need?)

Did zuck say anything relevant to the market in the past 10+years?

It’s a provocation but I’m also kinda curious, with the level of information and consulting he has access to he must be choosing the topics he is relevant about?

My thoughts exactly. There are a lot of things that look like a newspaper but are just very long editorials. On the other end we still have a few kinda reputable sources that actually do some journalism work (debunking, actually investigating on site, arguing …).

Journalism and all forms of counter power look super weak in my county but mixing everything up just makes the important work even weaker.

Is there a competition for the dumbest hat slogan somewhere?

C’mon, it’s 2025!

no reason to believe it violates “democratic values”

In my country the law is one of the pillars of democracy, but you do you 👍

And I think “vibe” means that they have no experience with programming so they can’t read the code they copy.

At least it was Americans talking on an american platform. I wouldn’t be surprised if we had french Europeans leaders having occasionally this kind of discussions on Microsoft Teams or some Google chat.

On Signal you can verify user identify, and you should absolutely do it if were to discuss national security maters.

This is not a hidden feature, I think it’s designed to prevent man in the middle attack. It also work against the “oops I accidentally added a journalist to my conversation no one should know of”, which is so dumb that no one saw this coming 😅

If you were to discuss national security maters with someone, please just verify your safety numbers, IRL or through another safe and verified channel 🙄

Can we stop benchmarking text generation models on things they’re not designed to do and start educating people on what they actually can do?

Oh no we can’t, there’s already hundreds of commercial services…

So often 😭

I think I was thinking about desktop apps when I answered, but I feel out of context now 😬

Isn’t it about a web engine being roughly 60MB? 😕

Wasn’t XP more reliable than the average of Windows versions?

But it’s easier to block trackers & ads on a PWA, and life made me very cynical about “the industry” 😅

He would have to eat part of a battery. It was, he figured, maybe the only way to solve his problem.

I thought this was metaphorical 🤦 My idiocratie radars are all saturating since the middle of the article.
