An FPV youtuber that never coded before tries to vibe code an fpv drone simulator.

They will sell "training data slots". So that when I'm looking for a butter cookie recipe, ChatGPT says I'll have to use 100g of "Brand (TM) Butter" instead of just "Butter".

Ask it how to deploy an app to the cloud and it will insist you need to deploy it to Azure.

These ads would be easily visible though. You can probably sell far more malicious things.

They do but we have for instance education to reduce their hallucinations in narrow fields of expertise. And a system of guardrails to only let educated people work in those fields to avoid harm.

No, Dresden was a big garrison city, manufacturing and transportation hub. Bombing it, as cruel at is was, served a purpose for the Allies to remove safe retreats for the Germans.

Lots of Dresdeners were supporters of faschism before the war and after the war. A quite vocal minority still supports neofaschism up to this day. In the 90ies they installed the myth of the "holocaust bombing" as an allied war crime, trying to turn themselves into the victims of war.

Another quite common headline technique is "Car hits pedestrian/bicycle/other-car". As if the car was driving itself. It somehow shifts the blame away from the driver to the object, the car. Similar to accepting that software has bugs and thus anything can happen an no one is to blame.

It sucks to read this, but its completely sound and logical for those who only drive cars. As more people start using bicycles these days, its slowing shifting though.

Reading "Let me try to explain using analogies.", I was worried someone would come up with another car anology.

Seeing orgs as people with characters, oh my, my eyes are opened now. Sounds weird but it makes sense the few times that I have worked on contracted projects.

For me, an added complexity in gauging the other side of the contract is that their personality changes depending on the actual people that are involved. When some higher-ups join the project it in later stages, the personality may turns even more mental than it already is.

Fascinating, like watching a Bob Ross video but he is drawing with SDF formulas as his palette. Very chilling and pleasant to watch.

BTW, does anyone know a good migration library for nodejs/typescript?

I was looking for one some months ago and kind of settled with Typeorm migrations but I don't like them that much. It feels clunky and doesn't seem to provide tooling for saving the schema. Little things that annoy me are the timestamp names for the migrations and the needless "extend this base class for your migration" Java cargo-culting which feels so weird in JS/TS.

Agreed. I personally had never any problems with packages overwriting each other. Everybody knows that you have to namespace all the functions and it works, just like it works in C.

And the upside that everything is accessible in the scratch buffer is really worth it.

And for me, Elisp has been a kind of constant during my career. I wouldn't bet that in ten years, I'm still doing Typescript or Javascript. But if I'm still into programming computers via keyboards I will definitively use Emacs for that.

While elisp has lots of warts and weirdnesses stemming from ages long ago, I find it quite suited for its task as an editor scripting language.

For instance, the global namespace is great to play with and learn commands in the scratch buffer. Also the custom datastructures and generally the emacs lisp abstractions around editing are a joy to use.

I agree though that the rendering is too old fashioned. I'd love for Emacs to get smooth, animated scrolling instead of that tty-esque line-by-line movement of the text. That really makes it hard to keep track when scrolling throught large documents.
