I'm conflicted because more people joining the open source community and contributing is great. That said, open source is an ecosystem that covers everything from the application, to the build system and the code editor used to write the code. A lot of the people contributing to FOSS care a lot about the quality of their code, and being part of it means respecting the community.

But most of the AI models being used to write vibe coded or ai assisted code is not at all sustainable, it's a huge part of the toolset that is locked behind corporate infrastructure. A lot of code spit out by LLMs is rarely workable or designed to be extended or transformed, and very few are critical of the quality of the code. I know even at work I've been frustrated at having to fix, work with or re factor code that has been written with the help of ai.

That's not unfortunate to be honest. It's how they can make a search engine that is both good and doesn't harvest user data or rely on ads.

His tag line says he's leading the charge in AI marketing, he is but another grifter.

Wanted to be a marine biologist as a kid. Then found out that people actually made video games. Now I make video games for a living. It's alright

Domestication is interesting because your average German shepherd is arguably living a significantly higher quality of life than a wolf living in the wild. While they may not have the same "freedom" as a wolf living in the woods, the wolf lives in its own shackles, always fighting for food, shelter and protection from predators. While I don't disagree that having pets is fundamentally a problematic concept, I also think its always a bad idea to attribute abstract human traits and concepts onto animals, most of which want food, water, safe territory, and engagement.

Almost every animal specialist I talked to never talks about animals as if they were people, they always have a sense of respect for them being an animal and of a different species. I suppose they have a greater understanding of what an animal "wants".

We forgot about Korea! It's got all of them in one!

Firefox is becoming a shitty ai browser now. Consider waterfox or librewolf

Hmm odd. So there isn't really much of a difference between using libre sprite and aseprite.

Yeah it does look like cloud sync is free now. I was a pretty early adopter of bitwarden so I believe originally you had to pay for cloud sync support, but I may be wrong.

Still, I'll continue to support them because they're the only password manager I've used that has some semblance of mutual respect.
