I unironically love Latinisation (and Greekification).
“Crabification” would have worked just fine to express this idea, but “carcinisation” sounds so scientific and erudite.
People dog on English, but I think it’s really cool how we have other ancient source languages to pull from to coin “smart” words when needed. And when you dig into the etymology of the “fancy” word, it adds texture, layers, history, and extra context to the whole thing.
Ok, that was a tangent. Carry on.
That’s one (of many) reasons I don’t want to give up remote work.
Bosses say that remote work misses “the human element” and “face to face” time.
Yes, and I couldn’t be more happy about it.
100% we need to switch back to entirely paper ballots, even if it takes months to determine a winner.
I did. Fascism moves fast.
No, which is why many of us opposed the Patriot Act during the Bush era.
The question “what about a future administration that could abuse this level of access” wasn’t just a rhetorical one, it was prescient and timely.
The party of small government at it again.
Microsoft Outlook started this stupid shit.
Before then, emails (and Usenet posts) were always appended to the bottom, and good netiquette required one to intentionally quote the specific germane lines from the previous message and respond to them inline, point-by-point, for brevity, conciseness, and context, just as God intended.
My car CD player had that. And it worked great, until you decided to encode with a variable bitrate (e.g., lame --preset r3mix).
Oh well, 192 will do.
You just unlocked a memory here.
What does your hardware setup look like, if you don’t mind me asking?
I’m thinking of building something, but I don’t want to spend a fortune if I can help it. I run Lllama on a Mac Mini, which works fine, but I’m not able to run the bigger models on that.
Black people aren’t bred for crime.
All domestic dog breeds enjoy the same material conditions as other breeds. Pit bulls aren’t living with poverty, scarcity, lack of opportunity, and systemic injustice compared to other dogs.
We have bite statistics. Every year, pit bull and pit mixes far outnumber every other breed for human bite attacks, consistently, and always make up far more than half (to the tune of ~70%) of all total bites, by breed. Every single year.
Yet people ignore statistics and are eager to jump on the pibble defense train. “My little angel would never bite anyone!”
Maybe. But numbers don’t lie. Just stop breeding them. It’s cruel to people, and it’s cruel to the dogs themselves, that the breed continues to be perpetuated. Breed-specific behaviors are visceral and strong, whether you have a retriever, a pointer, a herder, or a throat mangler. The breed behavior can be invoked at any time, relatively easily.
The quality of your life is the sum of the quality of the five people with whom you spend the most time.
Ok, so I happen to be the paragon of security through obscurity.
Come at me bruh
Cool. How’d you monetize this, exactly, and how well did it pay?
Well, you certainly can complain about it and still use it, when your livelihood requires you to either use the tech, or get left behind by those who do. Speed and turnaround time wins over skill and quality.
Embrace the Suck.
I’ve tried this on personal projects, but not work projects.
My verdict:
To be a good vibe coder, one must first be a good coder.
Vibe coding is faster to draft up and POC, longer to debug and polish. Not as much time savings as one might think.
Well, no shit.
