I don't know why, but it still amazes me how fast some people have went full crackhead with LLM's:

The original KamalamaIt's done the opposite for me. It's removed the play aspect of building software. It's even removed the play aspect of managing people who are building software. And the thought of being a professional code reviewer for the last 20 years of my career makes me want to leave the tech industry.Dare Obasanjo@carnage4life.bsky.socialThe idea that humans will be reviewing this code in two years, let alone twenty, seems far fetched.

I can't see the "reasoning" trace in the link. Do you need to be logged in?

If you have to swim in raw sewage, you shouldn't blame yourself when some poop gets in your mouth.

Right? Like he never heard of MIT or Apache2 licence.

You could argue that for example AGPL3 is non-commercial in practice due to the requirements to disclose code. But even then.

Thank you, should have checked that.

Stop the presses. Dude who's into LLM's has shit takes about open source software.

Apparently OSS devs that publish under non-commercial licenses are shutting people out?

Definitely some bespoke what the fu-

Mike Masnick coping about Bluesky (de) centralization again.

In a moment of weakness, I took the bait.

Didn't get banned yet, but here's hoping. He be mostly posting cringe lately anyway and my timeline could use some cleaning up.

to say nothing of the violence that necessarily follows a boots-on-the-ground occupation

I doubt there are going to be boots-on-the-ground. Not for any good reasons, just because Trump lacks the commitment (or even capability of commitment).

I love* how the AI stans never get tired of proselytizing.

The result was about 25,000 lines of Rust, and the entire port took about two weeks. The same work would have taken me multiple months to do by hand.

*Love, as in: "I love to get my eyelids scraped with a cheesegrater.

The article tries to fact check Asha Sharma's (the new CEO) claim that

fertility rates are declining, the average birthrate in the ’90s when we were growing up was, like, 3, and now it’s 2.3, and in 2050 it’s estimated to be below replacement

Unfortunately, they forgot that other countries than the US exist and didn't occur to them that she could be talking about global fertility rates. In which case the claim is pretty much correct.

Embarrasing.

Broke: The METR studies are the best research on impacts of AI productivity available today.

Woke: The METR studies are hot garbage.

Bespoke: Both. It's both.
