lad

it’s clear at this point already that Zig is a weakly-typed language

Uhm… pretty sure it isn’t.

They seem to think any type inference makes for a weak typing, judging by their previous rant about auto in C++

So, yeah, author’s views are a bit special, not sure this article will help me be better :(

Not everything that’s poorly written is ai, you should give humans more credit

We have an engineering manager that’s about the same, the only issue is that they let PR through because features are wanted and there’s no time to get things right.

I think, I may be pleased to have to redo everything several times to make it better and simpler, but what we get is that everything is bad but we’ll still merge 😞

I now feel at several times I fucked up quite a lot by making something that works but not something simpler.

One can be pro- or anti- any concept or thing, some options just make more sense

This is an interesting article, but I think that this standardisation is exactly for port being the same, not for pinning specific implementation of the 600+ pages long standard.

Wow what a marketing scum trick to show all compatible older generations as separate products

Maybe a rat brain project? I think the mapping of human may take longer, but yeah, once it happens interesting times are on the horizon

Also, maybe in a world where you measure anyone with money it makes sense to measure intelligence with money ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A dog may be able to fully react and learn how to react with the exterior. But can it modify itself the way human brain can?

As per current psychology’s view, yes, even if to a smaller extent. There are problems with how we define conscience, and right now with LLMs most of the arguments are usually related to the Chinese room and philosophical zombie thought experiments, imo

I’d say that difference between nature boiling down to maths and LLMs boiling down to maths is that in LLMs it’s not the knowledge itself that is abstracted, it’s language. This makes it both more believable to us humans, because we’re wired to use language, and less suitable to actually achieve something, because it’s just language all the way down.

Would be nice if it gets us something in the long run, but I wouldn’t keep my hopes up

Not quite related to the topic, but I encountered several ‘books’ that can be replaced by several paragraphs of text, and this is almost as bad as making three hours video instruction where 30 seconds or a bit of text would suffice. I find it horrible that such ones are written at all

How lossy can it be until it’s not infringement? One-line summary of some book is also a lossy reproduction

Afaik, clients for Lemmy have tags, but they are stored on client side, too

I recently bought Samsung tags to track my cat, too. The app is available on Pixel but it doesn’t allow me to pair with the tag, so no, it’s a bit more complicated

Yeah, in case of polio and pox, there’s no question of if it will be beneficial

America is to blame for Russia’s actions

I’m not sure I saw this point being made, although I agree that not much actionable ideas were proposed

Also, if this is only a change in managing bugs, nothing may have changed except for more bug tracking for trivial bugs, or the opposite, ignoring more severe bugs

It doesn’t work on all the cats, though. Also, I heard that it’s not painful for a cat to be lifted that way, but I would prefer not to.

Edit: I was wrong

Yeah, I wanted to reference Dune, too, but then thought that it’s not a very rare trope. On a related note, I took a look at tvtropes and it says that in the Dune the AI didn’t wage war, it was humans that didn’t like what AI does and prohibited it. I read the books too long ago to remember if this is so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah, but they literally used the term as used in Warhammer lore: A.I.

In Warhammer AI is forbidden on the grounds of past wars with humanity
