What do you mean "ExpirationDate = CurrentDate.Year + 1" doesnt work? Why shouldnt i sign certs that rely on this? What do you mean the VM orchestrator has spread these probkem VMs to all hosts and everything is fucked?

Datetimes are HARD. Just use a library

There are issues with AI involving licensing and peoples IP and crediting sources and all that.

It has also massively reduced the barrier of entry for both finding and patching bugs, and producing realistic looking bug reports.
My biggest issue (other than enviromental and social impacts) is the load it puts on developers. They pretty much HAVE to use LLMs to triage and test bug reports... because it takes very little skill to use an LLM to "deep dive this area of the linux kernel and find a bug or RCE/CVE", and the LLM probably will. But the unskilled user might not understand what the exploit/bug actually is. But they get some sort of POC and some sort of write up, and then they dump it on someone elses plate.
If that bug is actually patched/impossible because of something outside of the scope/context that the LLM used, or if its only a bug because of bad config... yeh, its a bug, but it isnt an important one. And it eats up developer resources to confirm/triage/fix that bug.

Also, LLMs are an averaging engine. They work on "most likely" probability evaluations. So, you get average code.

There has to be a human in the loop

There really is an XKCD for everything. Even if it was drawn years before what its applicable to

I consider aetheism to be more an absence of belief in gods.
Its not that i believe there arent gods. Its that i have no belief in gods.
The former being anti-god/anti-religion. And the later being anti-belief.
Maybe like "not accidentally cutting yourself" and "not having a knife". Both lead to "not accidentally cutting yourself", but 1 involves a knife.

It's a souper joke

Yeh, it's just that the UK has all sorts of different types of schools ( https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/37696598 ).
I don't really know/remember if the US has a bunch of different types of schools

I'm more aware of the fucked up and abusive manosphere.
Is "tradwife" actually a thing?
I mean, if literally EVERYONE was a tradwife, would it be a bad thing?

I think if everyone was in the manosphere we would be fucked.

They will be using data center compute to generate the traffic, but proxy it through residential proxies and other compromised devices that form a botnet.
Central generation with remote access for the trolls, and distributed outbound traffic.

You've never experienced an AWS US East outage, huh?

 

I've been here a while, and I appreciate the community and the defed/hiding list.
I also know programming.dev contributes to upstream Lemmy repos.

I saw another post about another instances funding.
Which reminded me....

Is programming.dev on track for funding?
Need some more donations?
Is there a runway?
