  • I suspect the Aquitaine region is skewed by containing both the French Basque country and the Béarn. The rest of it is pretty lacking in terms of regional identity - I would say identity is either even more local than regional or a somewhat flat, national one around here.

  • The textual expect/diff for UI screenshot testing is enough to make me want to try this out, let alone the promise of being able to use ocaml for everything.

  • I'm surprised that you're talking about models being CUDA-specific or AMD-specific. I've had a bunch of models running on my amd-only pc, using ollama, lemonade, and lm-studio, through either rocm or vulkan. None of these models were billed as AMD-specific. I had to do some config tweaking for ollama to use my graphics card but that's more because I have a weird in-between-generations card that also predates the LLM hype (6700XT).

    However, I did generally need to look for the GGUF format versions of things - usually accounts like unsloth have them uploaded on huggingface barely a day or two after the original version gets posted.

  • The cargo shorts stay ON during sex coding

  • The work itself appears to be generated by a Webb Industries AI.

    I wonder if they had a human imitate gen ai style or just had nano banana generate it...

  • "posterior averaging" sounds like medicalese for "implants so my butt isn't flat"

  • Solid conclusion! I had seen headlines but never actually read excerpts of the Pope's encyclical. Much to your article's point, I suspect, I never would have expected the head of the Catholic church to produce writing and arguments so relevant to the current state of the fedi.

  • There will be no demand for software for a while, as we did not need much in the first place.

    I don't think software is like some raw resource that can be accumulated and then consumed at a later date. In my own career as a dev, people are constantly coming up with new demands that have to be implemented to meet their needs.

    I do agree that a lot of software made in the past 20 years was primarily made because someone (often not the devs making it) thought it would make them rich(er) in some way instead of actually "benefitting" humanity. My own hope is that however the economics of LLM-based AI work out, we'll see a decline in this specific sort of software development taking up so much of the pool of available developer effort.

    If companies are spending more on tokens than on developers to churn out software that is decidedly meh (which is all I've seen so far of the trend), I would expect the actually induces demand for human developers - either as a complement to "AI" or as competition to it.

  • Ugh. Does it worry anyone else how much this fraudulent/incompetent way of claiming to be scientific resembles nazis and race science at their most fundamental workings?

  • From what I remember of when the news of his boat's creation was shared here on the threadi/fediverse, he expressly had it designed and built for this purpose. It's nice to get some news about it accomplishing something other than making him richer, for sure.

  • My dream is that we see an economy of "parts makers" flourish thanks to this, but this will live and/or die based on who exactly starts filling up the store - and with which assets.

  • I agree with most of what you're saying, but:

    • forgejo is working on federation. They've been working on it for a certain amount of time by now, but I do think we can expect some concrete version of what you describe in terms of community to materialize in the next decade as long a people want it and are motivated enough

    • when talking about code that is stored in a version control software that supports decentralized state (git, mercurial are the 2 I have working knowledge of) the "easy" fix for low bus factors is to just fork/mirror the software you want to see continue to exist. Source code is not that voluminous, I would be surprised if [the collective we] can't manage to store multiple copies of the sources for software we deem useful. It's a question of changing habits, not finding some miracle tech

    Of course, habits aren't necessarily easy to change.

  • It definitely comes off as LLM-generated, though "Half-understood Kubernetes is more dangerous than no Kubernetes" feels human-wrought.

  • Interesting to read through the announced changes ; it seems like there's been a lot of work put into this!

  • There might be a network effect happening, where formerly someone out shopping for physical goods would more easily run into friends or acquaintances and together they could decide to stop at a bakery, café, or bar for a drink and/or a bite to eat. Nowadays you need to explicitly plan to go out and socialize instead of meeting up online or just plugging in to an online community.

  • "Hard-Left party" maybe for today's Overton window, but France Unbowed is moderate socdem in terms of policies. They're just not meek when it comes to public rhetoric.

    Anyways, I'm glad the government is taking election interference (somewhat) seriously.

  • If we're talking post-year-2k macs, you're de-facto going to skew the results as those were less affordable than budget family windows boxes.
