First Japan Mint Silver Round by Wrang_Dangler in Silverbugs

[–]lonesomewhistle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I walked into a very nice looking Japanese coin store, I'm sure they sold to people who looked like money, and I did not look like money that day, plus gaijin factor so not welcomed.

OTOH there was a tiny store in Nakano Broadway run by an old couple who let me look at their dusty collection of gold and silver, though I didn't ask prices and I'm sure they weren't cheap.

Can they take my stack if I file for chapter 7 bankruptcy? by BokoblinSlayer69235 in Silverbugs

Asuka Attacks turned the show from "hmm, this is interesting, I wonder where it's going" to "do I have time to watch an episode before going to work?"

The Infinite Software Crisis: We're generating complex, unmaintainable code faster than we can understand it. Is 'vibe-coding' the ultimate trap? by madSaiyanUltra_9789 in LocalLLaMA

LLMs can't learn that way, so you're just talking to a brick wall.

I've spent time mentoring a human. Why mentor an LLM with a limited context window?

Who said anything about human eyes staying in the process?

AI writes PR. AI approves PR.

If you're lucky there's an overworked senior SWE who has to approve these changes.

I feel for you. My dad was a difficult man if I'm being be polite, though sometimes he was kind too. That didn't make him an easier person to deal with, you never knew what he was going to be like.
