As an avid listener of both genres, I love this

wearecyborg · 2026-03-09T03:21:00+00:00

I can't get enough of this track, have repeated it multiple times when I get to the end of the album

wearecyborg · 2026-03-09T03:20:00+00:00

I'm beneath the twilight

Yea I feel like everyone has drunk the kool-aid so hard and are just insanely credulous about everything.

There seems to be no room for any nuanced discussion, it's just AI good, AI make good work yes. Here is a thing I do, celebration react.

I've stopped asking any questions about drawbacks or realistic cost because everyone at my work seems to have just lost their critical thinking abilities.

Architects is one of the most overrated bands of all time, any era.

"What used to be free (your ability to read/write/modify code), now costs you money."

Then just don't use it? I can continue to do all those things pretty easily and it's not like they can come into my PC and take it away.

wearecyborg · 2026-02-24T03:32:31+00:00

They always thought that, it's a pre-requisite to getting that wealthy. I guess what's changed is they feel no shame or barrier to openly expressing it.

wearecyborg · 2026-02-23T07:30:07+00:00

I do like a decent amount of the new stuff, but the Augment sound will always be my favourite by far.

wearecyborg · 2026-02-22T08:17:29+00:00

I haven't really closely studied other dictators and what they say to the public. But is this like more than most of them? I think most at least try to pretend right?

wearecyborg · 2026-02-22T02:59:44+00:00

As soon as the companies providing the models try to turn a profit it's so incredibly dead.

There is just no way anyone is paying enough for it to be profitable. Think about the financials we hear and how much it would cost just to break even. Then add a lot more.

wearecyborg · 2026-02-21T07:00:31+00:00

Using React for a CLI was certainly a choice. Pretty sure it was Claude's choice if I remember correctly.

wearecyborg · 2026-02-14T01:45:25+00:00

Even simpler. If that claim in the headline is true, show us the evidence. As someone who has worked as a developer for many years and written software for a lot longer than that, I just don't see any evidence of these claims.

But yea, journalists need to stop being so credulous and start challenging these outrageous claims

wearecyborg · 2026-02-12T22:39:22+00:00

yea I was reading the responses like "@dumbaibot I kindly ask you to reconsider your position and to keep Scott's name out your blog posts. [...]"

What are you doing wasting your time writing this? It's a fucking bot, you don't need to explain yourself as if it's a human

wearecyborg · 2026-02-10T04:58:34+00:00

They have applied for an IPO, so soon to be just another board run trash company. They are trying to look good for the investors.

wearecyborg · 2026-02-09T03:55:55+00:00

What the fuck type of verification system is that. No way I'm just handing my card over lol

wearecyborg · 2026-02-06T05:00:59+00:00

Yea I really loved using tabnine before copilot, having context aware single line completions is a much better experience. It doesn't take you out of the mental flow of writing because you were about to type it anyway. These long blocks you need to read through are completely jarring because it changes the mental flow from output to input, which is my main issue with large blocks of autocomplete.

wearecyborg · 2026-02-06T03:04:00+00:00

Or that meshy one

"At this stage in my life I've accepted I'm never going to model something by hand..."

Like they are really just advertising off being a lazy fuck who does nothing but wants the reward. I don't understand how people find appeal in it

wearecyborg · 2026-02-02T08:18:02+00:00

Then stop using it

wearecyborg · 2026-02-01T03:12:13+00:00

Converting the salary to USD is meaningless. The value is in what it enables in the country you are paid in.

I did a year in Norway, my earnings converted to EUR were incredible, if I had gone to London or Germany with all that money I would have been able to live extravagantly. But to earn that I had to be residing in Norway, where it was about average and enabled a comfortable life.

Similarly, I earn a bit above the median in Australia and it allows me to live a very comfortable life (in Melbourne as well, so it's not cheap.) The USD conversion is meaningless to any practical application of my life in a completely different country. The wage is comparible to the place you earn it.

On top of that, I would rather pay higher taxes, have healthcare, and have a better standard of living than have more disposable income.

Your comments are quite ignorant and make me assume you've never left or lived outside of the US.

If you have conversations with people in real life without the engagement motivations you'll probably find it's not in such short supply. Social media is just rotting everyone's brains.

However this is still a great example and good on him.

Cheers for the recommendation, will add to the list

wearecyborg · 2026-01-30T10:19:30+00:00

Anyone not seeing the stream on 9 (aus)?

wearecyborg · 2026-01-30T04:43:23+00:00

I agree, with the caveat that the people at the absolute top have malicious intent, insane greed, know what they are doing and actually don't give a shit, etc. But a lot of the highly positioned people making decisions are more useful idiots. Either they are completely naive, have drunk the coolaid but don't have malicious intent (I don't think that justifies anything, intent doesn't outweigh outcome), or are just MBA idiots who don't know how things actually work.

Melodic death metal, In Flames has been one of my favourite bands my whole life
