what i really hate is the "remind me later" buttons. I want to say a plain "no" but the app won't let me. It promises not to respect my decision right there in the popup itself!

GPUs in your average home PC has a longer lifespan. Datacenters run them at full load for very long periods of time. Some datacenters literally burn through hundreds of GPUs a day.

What will happen is that new buzzwords will be invented, and a new fad will take its place. And we will be stuck with the short end of the stick again. You can hope, but shit doesn't really get cheaper for us common folk, ever. :/

I hadn't read that one. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I loved it

most of today's problem's in this field is because upper management got swindled into thinking that the process doesn't matter, as long as something comes out the other end. Doesn't need to work properly.

But this shitty state of software nowadays is mostly due to only caring about the result and not the process.

To be clear: this existed even before AI, and also led to the proliferation of electron and its ilk.


You can ignore precedence in the grammar, and then use a pratt parser or shunting yard or something to parse the precedence.

But yes, it does need it, usually. And it's not a huge thing to implement. I usually implement it in the grammar, with inline node folding inserted for left associative operators, which gets me a very nice clean AST.


don't offend blender by comparing it to ai slop.

If you think anything created with the help of agentic coding is slop, you're in for a rough (checks watch) rest of your life

You‘re free to share AI created polished examples

i still do this today!

You run a mail server on a residential IP? I thought that pretty much guarantees non delivery nowadays?

except that if you do, you've just implemented a different model, with no way to tell which part of it is wrong

Funny how much stuff AI can democratize whose only prerequisite is a willingness to spend effort learning to use them, for free.

But now "needing" to pay actual money, for an AI agent to write code for you, preventing you from actually learning, means that it is accessible to less people than it ever was before (you can't possibly beat "free" for "democratization" purposes)
