Genuine question: Are there a lot of "beginners" hopping on NetBSD?

I feel like most people who even know about NetBSD would be technical enough to at least function at a basic level in something like vi or nano.

Except the conclusion from this article is that only open-weight Chinese models are the ones to be concerned about.

> So what do they mean by "anti-AI"

Keep reading.

"Guides you to the "aha!" moment — YOUR moment, not the AI's"

This seems like yet another attempt at encouraging people to continue to utilize AI without relying on it.

> I reject your anecdote and respond with my own!

Can we not just agree that, as with everything else, the type of person who falls into this career also falls on a spectrum.

I don't see it as mutually exclusive that both type of engineers exist and both are equally deserving of their takes on the situation.

> other companies are catching up

Catching up? BYD has already surpassed Tesla and looks like the gap is going to continue to grow.

I wish this was true. At my org we had to add Chrome to the base image because otherwise we get so many tickets/calls about it even though we provide it via an internal software distribution service that any user has access to. People like what they like and are very resistant to change.

I have fond memories of DVD menus from back in the day. I specifically remember getting my hands on an early release of 300 that was made for reviewers and was blown away by the beauty of the menu especially considering that menu was maybe meant to be seen by a couple thousand people at best.

I wish I still had access to it because looking now it was distinctly different from the actual release DVD menu.

I swear I was staring at these two examples for longer than I care to admit wondering if I was just blind or dumb or both.

This comment is needlessly pedantic. Surely you're able to understand what their implication is.

Yeah, this is such a tired lazy response by people and is definitely not true anymore. Spin up a new account on a fresh device on a network I've never been on. Click a random video and scroll. Usually the first 3 or 4 scrolls is porn or someone being killed.

Anyone saying there isn't an insane amount of porn and worse on twitter is either lying or hasn't been on the site since it turned into the cesspool we have today.

Yes, it's almost like that's why there _was_ a rule in place to prevent IPOs like this from being shoved down everyone's throats so quickly without further testing.

Interestingly some zip codes just don't seem to work, but this appears to be an issue on AMC's side as I tested the same zip codes on their "find a theater" page and got the same results.

Very cool idea nonetheless.

Anyone have a link to the source code for this .exe? Would love to see _how_ it's extracting them.

Yes. I swear every day I see a "new" fad targeted at fixing one's attention and every time they're doing so much mental gymnastics to not use the word "meditation."
