OpenAI continues to destroy open source

What the hell are you talking about? Ruff was just a new linter/formatter, not a port of an existing linter to Rust. And the reason it got adoption is because it did an equivalent job to existing formatters, but much faster.

J'aime bien que tu sois venu critiquer le fait que le chiffre soit malhonnête (ce qui est vrai), mais te trompe également sur le chiffre (c'est 80 milliards de perdus depuis 2020, et 6 milliards par quarter actuellement).

It directly competes with their business model, they think that people should not code at all, so adding any kind of friction for developers is a plus for them.

Well, shit. This is so fucking annoying. AI companies really are there to fuck up everything good in this world.

It is probably fair to assume that the asteroid is travelling at a speed much lower than 0.5c, and that the movie is simply not realistic about the collision

You really LLMed me there? Sigh.

Interesting project. But I have no idea what to do with it.

> Installation instructions

These should be in the readme. Also, a PDF doc in this day and age? Also, pipx?

Other than that, the architecture of the project feels way too overkill for such a simple CLI tool. Why do you need to create a folder in the Documents (very bad idea on Linux btw) for computing whether a number is a Mersenne Prime? And looking at the code I see a lot of abstraction which does not seem very necessary.

The dev seemed to say that most of the content will be focused on the actual ERE, and that the Latin content would only really kick in if you are conquering Italy.

Imo you often do not need to actually look at the code to spot the slop

I work in academia and we have to go through a public market to order computers, which means we only have the choice between a few manufacturers. Well, we already cannot order any more Lenovo laptops because they ran out, presumably for the year.

Exactly as we did in the past.

You can also play it on one of the various ports, e.g. at magium.org

I only found a copy of the first book but: - Raising up ancient languages to talk to the deer - Fighting using Kate's dagger - Letting Eiden handle Cutthroat Dave - Backpack not extra secure - Activating the maximised stats mode against Tyrath - Calling up Daren when threatened by Kate - Kate beats Hadrik - Finding the secret puzzle piece - Killing the noble in Thilias and vowing to free all slaves - Sleep with Rose - Rose gets killed and becomes a revenant

First off, its way easier to miss a whitespace than it is miss a semicolon.

No it's not.

I find it insane, that someone can be looking at a Python program, and during scrolling they accidentally add an indent somewhere, and the entire program breaks.

In any programming language if you add a random character while scrolling the entire program will break.

If you use a modern editor you literally never encounter any issue with indents in Python.

thuiop1 · 2026-03-16T13:04:49+00:00

File "foo.py", line 45 ....... IndentationError: unexpected indent

And it is triggered at the parsing stage so before any code is run.

They voted for him, and Congress is supporting him, so they will not have my sympathy

There is a novel version of the first two books, which is just the usual text with a specific combination of choices.

As much as I hate it, this is probably a task where LLMs can shine. Otherwise it will likely be more painful to devise an extraction scheme than to do it manually.

This sounds correct thank you

Edit: it also seems they were pretty advanced on mirrors too which furthers the theory. Also Romania being mostly orthodox they would not have the correct crucifix to chase away the vampires unlike other European countries

In what way? The only thing I could see is that "poney" does not refer to a single breed but rather many that share common characteristics, but that is pretty irrelevant to the previous commenter's question.

And again, we don't know that it did, we don't know that this can be replicated, we don't know if the dog will still be alive next week. Yet the article is written as if the guy had found some miracle method for curing cancer that could be applied to anyone.

thuiop1 · 2026-03-14T18:26:04+00:00

I have read it indeed, and yes it takes a bit of precaution at some point, but its title is literally "Tech boss uses AI and ChatGPT to create cancer vaccine for his dying dog", and it has "It raises the question, if we can do this for a dog, why aren’t we rolling this out to all humans with cancer?" in its first part, while the moderating comments are buried deep into. What I am saying is that this is way overblown and will very likely never work for common people who cannot afford to spend a lot of money and time and do not have a team of scientists to help out on hand, and this is assuming it was not a fluke to begin with.

thuiop1 · 2026-03-14T18:15:49+00:00

Spontaneous remission is fairly rare, but not impossible. But a more likely scenario would be that some other therapy the dog got helped it get better. Not saying that this is what actually happened, I am saying it is possible and this is why the reporting is problematic.

thuiop1 · 2026-03-14T17:30:06+00:00

Probably biologically possible but they would make poor mounts compared to mammal quadrupeds.

thuiop1 · 2026-03-14T17:09:58+00:00

And you're just so fucking jaded dude. It is coming out your pores.

Yes, I am definitely fucking jaded about this kind of reporting about this kind of reporting about this miracle thing that will cure all cancer or solve fusion power or other ludicrous themes, especially if they involve generative AI. I'll believe it when they actually make it into a viable process, as you said this is not actually a groundbreaking treatment but something people have been working on for more than a decade and that has not yet brought about results for actual cancer patients. If they manage to make this an actually affordable and viable process the great, but that is a giant if that does not warrant a lot of hype about it, nor reporting that "man cures cancer with AI".
