It bums me out with cryptocurrency/blockchain and now āAIā that people are afraid to commit to calling it bullshit. They always end with ābut it could evolve and become revolutionary!ā I assume from deep seated FOMO. Journalists especially need more backbone but thatās asking too much from WSJ I know
when stocks are suffering Bitcoin is seen as the automatic money machine cause allegedly line can only go up. It doesnāt produce or rely on supply chain logistics and is immune to trade wars so it quickly gets popularity again. And thereās no such thing as a former coiner because once thereās a hint of potential bag holders arriving then they activate like fucking sleeper agents ready to push the moon-prop
This is from 2023 but when debugging an xfce issue this week I came across this forum post: https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=16835
The user is competent enough to use xfce with Debian, but too incompetent to understand debug symbols is not a violation of privacy.
My experience talking with people has been often this same situation; they have some specialty expertise and for whatever reason now accept ChatGPT as all knowing and use it a lot day to day. It worries me since the response to āwhyā is usually along the lines of humans arenāt always right but this is AI so it will keep getting better eventually.
Tools should be 100% correct. Your work has regressed because you swapped out good tools and practices for spicy autocorrect
Not really a sneer but James Gosling (one of the creators of Java) has discovered and enjoys pivot to ai https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/pivot-ai-james-gosling-l06gc
Mention C (and to an extent C++) and turbo nerds froth to show off how ultra cool they are cause they are LoW lEvEl programmers. But like most things, these loud freaks are mostly incoherent with their random insertion of tech words. Putting aside the DEI stuff cause I will rant forever against this racist and sexist fuckwit, itās massively annoying working in an industry and dummies love to be all hand wavy and suggest something like sanitizers. Thanks bro, letās all add runtime sanitizers and watch perf tank in the most critical section of your computer. And as you pointed out he doesnāt even mention the right one.
Next time Crowdstrike should just have an if check all registers after every instruction to make sure their values are within your address space! And and and make sure a woman doesnāt program it cause according to him they are exempt from code reviews cause of the left agenda or some bullshit

GPU is the new WMD
I hate this cop out everyone uses when they stuff AI into their system. āBy using it itās actually your fault for believing the informationā while also making it the preferred or even only way to try and get information. This is unethical especially in healthcare
āRay-Ban, show me cumsluts but like discreetly cause Iām on the subwayā
I used to think regulations were good and protecting us, then I became someone who wanted to take advantage of you so now regulators are bad. Let me fleece you, stop preventing it
AI influencers are wild. Much like blockchain somehow AI will solve all your problems, but to access the grimoire that is LLM prompts gotta watch a video by someone who claims to have this knowledge access but had their presentation written by ChatGPT
Much like blockchain the FOMO is so strong people are afraid to say itās bad even when there is nonstop evidence rolling in. With all the data they still are too cowardly to say anything critical.
