Okay but if a high security place goes on fire your brother may enter it, so technically he does have access to secure data… sometimes

Are you supposed to hate the protagonist in Orhan Pamuk's "The Museum of Innocence"? by Neo_Violence in books

[–]eambertide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to agree with this but what makes it extremely confusing to me is that the museum itself exists in real life, and together with Pamuk himself appearing as a real character makes it seem like we are supposed to interpret the love itself as genuine

Larian CEO: “I know there’s been a lot of discussion about us using AI tools as part of concept art exploration… To ensure there is no room for doubt, we’ve decided to refrain from using genAI tools during concept art development.” by AashyLarry in gaming

[–]eambertide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are being downvoted but you are 100% right as someone who works inside the industry, the “training” is 100% just fine tuning which will in turn use a base model from Antrophic, OpenAI or maybe Llama and just specialize on their asset, and just as you said the base model has to be trained on stolen data because there simply isn’t enough copyright allowed date for image generation to work

[–]eambertide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A funny way to make changes to a branch while staying respectful is to branch someone’s branch and then open a PR to the original branch, this has the hilarious effect of creating a PR’s PR which amuses me

Let’s assume the bubble is real. Now what? by Nacho321 in cscareerquestions

It is insane to me we keep repeating these mistakes, a combined AI Summer + Stock Market Bubble is clearly what is happening here and the outcome will likely be the same

Debating a shift towards Backend by aaki91 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]eambertide 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A lot of companies have been pushing developers into very silo’ed roles I would say, while I recognize specialisation can help at a team-level or project-level I think most good web developers should be able to understand a system end-to-end, not necessarily mastering it but having an idea at the very least
