  • I think nobody wants AI in Firefox, Mozilla

  • I agree with you, for what it's worth.

  • Exactly Six Months Ago, the CEO of Anthropic Said That in Six Months AI Would Be Writing 90 Percent of Code

  • Amen. Context is king, and managing context well is key to proper AI assisted coding. Also, staying accountable for the final output, as you stated in the end.

    Not having good (or any in most cases) context management techniques is like saying your car is slowing you down because you have to push it everywhere you go.

    I use NotebookLM to manage project context, and do scoping, planning and requirement elaboration which gets copied to Jira tickets (similar to what you explained in the first part) . On the coding side I use Claude Code with the Jira MCP. I use the copy-pasting between project and code domains to correct any mistakes AIs might have introduced. We developed a plugin which captures our engineering best practices and instructs the AI agent to discuss every aspect of the implementation and the task breakdown with the developer before writing any code or tests, as well as to keep a local progress tracker file for every ticket which also serves to capture any insights that emerged during the discussion. This file serves as long term memory between chat sessions, and also gets committed for future reference by humans and AI alike. And I always do a thorough self review towards the end.

    I'm convinced beyond doubt coding without modern AI assistants and not gaining experience with them is a mistake. Resist the knee-jerk reaction to downvote comments which give you blueprints to evolve you practice because you have antipathy for AI. I don't care about the little number at the top of this comment, but I think everyone should start learning and developing new techniques to improve their workflows.

  • I agree. I love Mastodon's calm columnar UI with lists and hashtags where I feel I'm in control of my experience, and that I can just stop whenever and come back in three days.

  • I finally got around to installing OpenMW - it looks much better! Thanks again

  • Godot staff are facing a huge reactionary backlash on Xitter for being "woke"

    Jump

  • Agreed, no big deal. But YouTubers who knew about it before this controversy will typically use the intended pronouncing, and it's easy to spot those who didn't care much about it until this all started.

  • It sounds like G-DOUGH.

  • Godot staff are facing a huge reactionary backlash on Xitter for being "woke"

  • This never crossed my mind, but you are right. Online interactions do lack a lot of context, and it must have been hard (or practically impossible) to discern genuine from malicious calls to remain apolitical in a situation of intense online harassment.

  • Godot staff are facing a huge reactionary backlash on Xitter for being "woke"

    Jump

  • This is evident in a few ways:

    • How they subtly or glaringly misunderstand what it is and what it does
    • How they call it "a company"
    • How they pronounce it as GO-DOT

  • My situation exactly, and I'm very happy with it. M2 with its speed and long battery life compensates well for some unconfigurable behaviours in MacOS that I have minor gripes with, and for gaming and general Linux goodness, Steam Deck to the rescue.

  • I'm using Vanilla, but AFAIK modded would work just as well. The key for playing old, pre-controller games meant for big monitors on the Deck are two features: Stream Input and Native Zoom. I always map one of the back buttons (usually) to Toggle Zoom.

    Please post about your experience with modded Morrowind, I might want to try that too!

  • This is informative on the differences between the ActivityPub any AT protocols: https://youtu.be/-R9CWq5CBlk?si=BzW7c5U0WXH8VxrO

    The intro explains some history and things which ppl here probably already know, but overall I find it provides a pretty good analysis of the current social media landscape, and these two protocols in particular.
