It is a prevailing myth, but personally I am not sure I believe it. I don’t know if it is based on anything.
- Comment on Harvard dropouts to launch ‘always on’ AI smart glasses that listen and record every conversation 13 hours ago:
Oh, it will join that very successful startup that was doing a pin that did something similar. It had AI in the name, I bet it does great and the product is very successful

How to transfer all the money in the world into the pockets of like two dozen people. Very important problem, needs to be solved asap.

The country of Brexit showed how much they care about devastating the economy

Bold of you to assume it will stop

Historically no one was strictly speaking good.

Whatever isolationism brexit highlighted, can’t be worse than whatever US is doing right now.
- Comment on [Video] Cops not sure whether to arrest man with "Plasticine Action" shirt for supporting terrorism 6 days ago:
Both have a ton of issues
Not arguing with that. I’m struggling to find something that is worse in the UK than in US right now, that’s it, I’m comparing the two countries right now. Whatever holdover issues UK has, US has it worse as far as I can see.

Are you seeing it as some kind of race where you’re winning and I’m losing? What should I cope with?
- Comment on [Video] Cops not sure whether to arrest man with "Plasticine Action" shirt for supporting terrorism 1 week ago:
The UK is awful in ways that the Americans can only aspire to
Which ones are those? I struggle to come up with something that US is doing better than the UK. The whole freedom of speech issue might be the one where at least it’s not that obvious, but I would argue UK is just more upfront about it, and even though more topics are explicitly forbidden in the UK, you wouldn’t be dissapeared from the streets by an unmarked van about it, so I would say it’s still better.
- Comment on Mozilla warns Germany could soon declare ad blockers illegal 1 week ago:
What should be illegal here is the kind of misinformation, if you permit some ads and allow others, you’re an advertising agency and should be upfront about it. If your whole business model is “I hide ads” but you only hide those ads that didn’t pay you, that’s false advertisement.

Oh, as not great as they are, they aren’t even close to being as bad as US.
- Comment on YSK There's a campaign to replace the distorted Mercator world map with the fairer Equal-Earth projection 1 week ago:
It’s a bit hard to find out where it actually originated from and who’s behind it. Judjing by their social media handlers, it’s a marketing agency Hello Makeda. Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t trust marketing agencies to be good judges on geographical projects.
- Comment on Why LLMs can't really build software 1 week ago:
No they aren’t. With enough setup and very unique and expensive equipment, you can pour shitty concrete walls that will be way more expensive and worse than if you did it normally. That will give you 20% of the house, at best. 20% of not very good of a house.
- Comment on Meta appoints anti-LGBTQ+ conspiracy theorist Robby Starbuck as AI bias advisor 1 week ago:
They are on it just as much as they were on progressive issues very little time ago. Corpos don’t have believes, they do what they think will bring them more money now
- Comment on Mozilla under fire for Firefox AI "bloat" that blows up CPU and drains battery 2 weeks ago:
Oh, so that’s what the fuck it was. I was wondering why my tabs were getting grouped without any logic or reason. Impressive ability to make everything actively worse
- Comment on Meet the AI vegans: They are choosing to abstain from using artificial intelligence for environmental, ethical and personal reasons. Maybe they have a point 2 weeks ago:
Personally when I use it, unless it’s something trivial, I always end up doing exactly that.
- Comment on Meet the AI vegans: They are choosing to abstain from using artificial intelligence for environmental, ethical and personal reasons. Maybe they have a point 2 weeks ago:
I was trying to use it for a long time, but the results are never fine for me. The situation when I search for something specific, the duck shows me nothing, and the google shows me exactly what I need is far too often for me to completely switch.
Granted, I don’t keep cookies, I use all the adblocks possible, and I disabled google’s LLM bullshit, otherwise google is borderline unusable. - Comment on Meet the AI vegans: They are choosing to abstain from using artificial intelligence for environmental, ethical and personal reasons. Maybe they have a point 2 weeks ago:
AI doesn’t exist, machine learning algorithms can be useful and are used with no controversy, generative bullshit is basically useless.

Unfortunately, it’s not better and also shows slop
- Comment on The EU still wants to scan all your chats – and the rules could come into force by October 2025 3 weeks ago:
I mean, Danish government comprised of people. And some people there are activists about this particular bullshit, so they’re pushing it at every opportunity.
I should’ve been more specific that it’s not just random group of people, but my point was that it’s not the decision of the entire EU (or even the entire Danish government) - Comment on Developer survey shows trust in AI coding tools is falling as usage rises 3 weeks ago:
That’s the joke, yes.
- Comment on The EU still wants to scan all your chats – and the rules could come into force by October 2025 3 weeks ago:
I don’t know who reintroduced it, but here the original one eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=COM%3…
- Comment on The EU still wants to scan all your chats – and the rules could come into force by October 2025 3 weeks ago:
It’s not the EU yet. It’s a group of activists from Denmark. There wasn’t even preliminary voting on it yet.
Doesn’t mean we need to be complacent of course, but so far nothing happened. - Comment on Developer survey shows trust in AI coding tools is falling as usage rises 3 weeks ago:
There is an amazing quirk of the LLM, whenever I don’t know about the topic, and refuse to google, it gives me some useful answers, but if I ask it something I know about, the answers are always stupid and wrong. I asked a computer about it but it said that everything is normal and I should buy better subscription, so there’s that.
- Comment on Hideo Kojima learned "so many ways to kill people" in training, says it's "kind of sad" many devs "don't know how to dismantle a gun or shoot a gun" despite making military games 3 weeks ago:
The only people who’s lifes was affected by cyberpunk magazin fed revolvers are gun nerds, and they will be upset regardless. It’s better to allocate resources on something useful rather than trying to appease every kind of nerd, unless you’re making a simulator, which neither cyberpunk nor Kojima’s drug induced dreams actually are.
- Comment on Google Assistant Is Basically on Life Support and Things Just Got Worse 3 weeks ago:
It is because it doesn’t listen to me constantly. You need to open the app and press the button.
I mean, you can let it listen, I just don’t. - Comment on Google Assistant Is Basically on Life Support and Things Just Got Worse 3 weeks ago:
I don’t use Google Wiretap, but I use google assistant on my watch to control the smarthome, and I would be very, very disappointed if it was dead
- Comment on Microsoft admits it would have to let Trump spy on EU data if demanded 4 weeks ago:
That’s kind of the point. UE could theoretically demand some Linux support from banks. It wouldn’t be a popular decision at first, but the consumer protection agency is capable of that, banks are capable of that, and it would help a lot.
I don’t think it would happen, it’s cheaper for banks to lobby against it than do a bare minimum, lobbying is cheaper than anything, but still, neat idea.
