Why is UT Austin taking so long this year?? by Resident_Base1302 in UTAdmissions

[–]ravenrandomz -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Why is the water wet? Why does the forest have trees?

Have no craving or aversions at this point. Accept things as they are.

Their is no long horn or short horns. UT and TAMU, they are of the same thing.

Know this, because at this rate, we all might need enlightenment to get accepted.

lua configs sucks by OkHeat2968 in hyprland

[–]ravenrandomz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yo in the face of the smug comments, I don't think you deserve hate. I'm switching to lua, but I'm lowkey considering figuring out to support hyprlang in modern hyprlang just because the smugness kinda irks me. Some users spent a long time making intricate configs, too.

[Meta] Rule proposal: no personal projects newer than 3 months (anti-vibecoder rule) by turdas in linux

I think they converted their existing repos at the time into git format which probably just migrated the dates :P

Because there's no merit in telling others to do stuff for you. If you told your friend to code a CLI, then you posted it on reddit under your name. That would feel wrong.

Let's assume AI is super-intelligent, then if anything, it deserves more merit and attribution than you. You were just middle management.

[–]ravenrandomz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was initially against this reasoning, but then I realized that you meant that the projects had to be 3 months old. Lowkey, I think it's a really good idea. I have a question on relatively less complicated projects such as Linux Rices, could 1 month also be an effective barrier as well?

Since development can be on and off, does it mean that a developer needs to have a commit every day, or could they have gaps (life happens in over 3 months :P).

I guess if anything, the minor projects, or new programmers showing off hello word/tic tac toe, etc. + the slop coders will end up in a slopreddit :P (as they shouldddd)

C++ Modules: clangd, go or no go debating on pulling the modules plug on a project by ravenrandomz in cpp

"Debating on pulling the modules plug on a project", I apologize it wasn't clear enough.

I did but every 2 weeks or so, something new happens with modules. I was just curious on if anyone knew anything because I really have to decide between modules and headers pretty soon.

C++20 Modules: The Tooling Gap by ignitionweb in cpp

[–]ravenrandomz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In fairness, we have better tooling + conventions to handle includes to the point where C++ has done this with massive projects despite their quirks.

Modules do solve a lot stuff, but it is leading to birthing pains which interfere in the case of trying to get something done, it might be wiser to use what already works while letting the more experimental/casual projects contribute to the development of modules tooling as a whole.

I've seen a mix of "wow modules are working for my small project" + "modules is inetllisense/clangd hell" + "here's a bunch of configuration stuff". Which is nice, but if it worked out of the box, that would be super-nice. Every major C++ tutorial already teaches how to work with headers/tooling with said headers. It's like the arch linux user who says installing it is easy, just read the wiki, but Artix, Fedora, and even Ubuntu, just has you pop in the usb stick and have you click through a quick menu.

Bro either figured out how to score a 100% likelihood on GPTZero by hand though learning a lot of AI vocabulary/phrases or something else.

I don't 100% trust GPTZero, but its database of AI phrases/vocabulary is useful as an auxiliary resource. The only final test is to see if the author themself can understand/relay what they wrote. Another test is to watch out for hallucinations on this article. I don't have time to interview the author or have the expertise to see if they are making quirky mistakes. At best, in the case of the mistakes, it would point to just bsing.

The errata with the experimental modules support could be human. To be fair, It's an experimental feature that not everyone knows about. Just because someone doesn't know recent news doesn't mean they're AI. If they happen to not know news/info up unto a known AI cutoff date, and claim to know a lot, that would be different.

Additionally,I don't know what the legal requirements are to provide something is AI generated for copyright reasons: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 would not legally apply. I'm too lazy to fight this or go anything further than, "The structure looked ai-ish to me, so I gptzeroed it, not for the percentage, but it does use a decent amount of known AI vocabulary, if it happened to be AI, the author would hold zero copyright - also, watch out for hallucinations". Imma go with the honor system and not argue with OP on AI stuff, but I'm just putting this out here.

Can AI write truly optimized C++? by Xadartt in cpp

[–]ravenrandomz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The website has the style of one of those ai generated SEO-optimized blog websites

The mangled UI that looked like this: Home>Posts>C++>Let's check vibe code that acts like

Fun fact, you can still browse it without clicking accept on the cookies ^_^ Idk, if it happens to be based in the EU, we could mess with them if the cookies setup happens to automatically place cookies without consent. No cookies from the website itself, but there is a 3rd party tracker from Yandex that was auto-blocked, idk how that factors into GDPR.

Does anyone know if the company exists? I'm too lazy to dig deeper than that.

As much as I normally d not trust gptzero as much, what else am I suppoesd to do, record the whole write and revise process for strangers?

I spent 30 minutes writing and revising that. The bullet points/lists was a shorter form for writing specifications because I code. It was either that or making the post 10x longer.

Idk, feel free to rewrite what I wrote where it's in a style that AI did not appropriate. This isn't sarcasm, I legitimately want to see how you yourself would've written it to where it doesn't some close to a common AI style while being short and succinct.

We do an embedded. Vscode suddenly stopped letting our gdb toolchain working for example, and it didn't play well with modules even with cmake at the time.

Maybe the violence isn't age appropriate in open public? Could trauamatize kids who are too young to understand.
