Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Clock but the PM quit and was replaced halfway through the project. Handover instructions: "Make the clock hands show the current time"English
0·11 months agoThese thoughts are way too deep for a silly meme thread, but I’m here for it! 🫡
jaredwhite@piefed.socialtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•dafuq are they doing over thereEnglish
0·11 months agoAgreed. While plenty of people have been covering energy use by technology for many years as well as the many dangers of social media and other online services…the fact is Gen AI simply takes everything that was already questionable and doubles it…quadruples it… Yes, not everything in tech is bad! And the stuff that was bad before does not excuse what’s frighteningly worse now.

0·1 year agoMaybe this is too technical still, but Eleventy is a pretty cool project that can publish markdown.

Photography@lemmy.ml•RapidRAW – The Lightroom (non-Classic) killer as Darktable is to LrC?English
0·1 year agoI don’t know, I’d stay clear of this one. The author seems to be all about LLM-all-the-things and it’s possible this was largely vibe-coded. I use Lightroom (non-Classic) because it’ll sync instantly between Mac, iPhone, & iPad. I’d love to use a FOSS solution if it were available, but this doesn’t seem to be the answer.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•10 Programmer StereotypesEnglish
0·1 year agoI found The Minimalist one amusing and a bit relevant, but otherwise I didn’t resonate with any of them. I feel like I’d fall under The Artisan : I’m a hippie type you’d expect to see in a Portlandia episode (and lol, I actually live in Portland), and my goal is to hand-craft every line of code and offer it up as an organic, farm-to-table morsel of supernutritional bliss with excellent mouthfeel.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Man, I really got hit with a "All men are predators, it's in the studies". 2nd wave feminism is a scourge on feminism itself.English

jaredwhite@piefed.socialtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•text generator approves drugsEnglish
0·1 year agoTechnically, LLMs as used in Generative AI fall under the umbrella term “machine learning”…except that until recently machine learning was mostly known for “the good stuff” you’re referring to (finding patterns in massive datasets, classifying data entries like images, machine vision, etc.). So I feel like continuing to use the term ML for the good stuff helps steer the conversation away from what is clearly awful about genAI.

0·1 year agoI don’t at all agree with this graph, and I think you’re sort of missing the point of the original post.


It’s debatable whether this license is truly open source. I wouldn’t say I particularly go out of my way to be pedantic about it, but somebody might.
