Hmmmm…
Nothing wrong here.

Don’t even need to make it about code. I once asked what a term meant in a page full of a certain well known FOSS application’s benchmarks page. It gave me a lot of garbage that was unrelated because it made an assumption about the term, exactly the assumption I was trying to avoid. I try to deviate it away from that, and it fails to say anything coherent and then loops back and gives that initial attempt as the answer again. I was stuck unable from stopping it from hallucinating.
How? Why?
Basically, it was information you could only find by looking at the github code, and it was pretty straightforward - but the LLM sees “benchmark” and it must therefore make a bajillion assumptions.
Even if asked not to.
I have a conclusion to make. It does do the code thing too, and it is directly related. Once asked about a library, and it found a post where someone was ASKING if XYZ was what a piece of code was for - and it gave it out as if it was the answer. It wasn’t. And this is the root of the problem:
AI’s never say “I don’t know”.
It must ALWAYS know. It must ALWAYS assume something, anything, because not knowing is a crime and it won’t commit it.
And that makes them shit.
The equivalent community seeded on the site that starts with R and ends with eddit recently (a month ago) made it a rule that people can’t make “therapy” posts which means people posting topics can’t make them primarily about their grievances with personal time or with the industry. And the baseline quality of topics in that place went way higher.
I think there’s a lesson to take from that: Try and not give a shit. Just find games you like, and play and talk about them. Make that the top priority, and make these concerns secondary - and you’ll have a higher quality time with the hobby.
I personally have 0 idea why the news circles gave two weeks of attention to something like Suicide Squad. Game looked bad, reviewed bad, openly had manipulative features built in AND attached to update promises, and then releases and, whoa, turns out, surprise surprise, it IS bad. And yet, two weeks. Two weeks of random place just bringing up the bad game that is bad with a lukewarm stance. Fucking even Skill Up, which I avidly consume content of, gave it a whole hour of attention split across two weekly roundups. That is unhealthy. Games do NOT deserve attention just because they’re marketed. And, in no way I can convinced of otherwise: It’s objectively stupid to give it that. I just skipped any discussions related to it, will probably skip any discussion related to turtle rock, the studio, henceforth that doesn’t start with “they made a return to form! XYZ is the best game they’ve made!” and my life feels unsurprisingly unaffected and I feel personally, unsurprisingly, less stupid.
This is why I expect the video side of things to be more on the level of stream channels that self-host content with subscriptions for access to VoDs, rather than singular big platforms. Streaming in of itself is a lot of traffic too, but you have much bigger RoI per bandwidth spent with live viewers, and you cut down the storage requirements with limited VoD access too.
The only problem then becomes discovering these channels from the rest of the federated space, but honestly, either that will be a problem that will be solved by the space in a more general manner (oooh, imagine the return of web rings! Lol) or… It will end up being an issue that doesn’t matter. Like right now, still coming from video games, MinnMax and Second Wind are two creator-owned platforms that appear to be relatively unpopular, with short amount of thousands of views, except they run off of donations on Patreons and the viewers they do have keep them afloat with a good decent margin.
One of the things most people I know like about Azula is that the show ended with her still being evil. They wrote her to be genuine with herself, and that meant no redemption.
I’m only on my very first year of DevOps, and already I have five years worth of AI giving me hilarious, sad and ruinous answers regarding the field.
I needed proper knowledge of Ansible ONCE so far, and it managed to lie about Ansible to me TWICE. AI is many things, but an expert system it is not.
They’re not market researching the gameplay. They’re market researching the visual elements, the animations, the artstyle, the sounds, the indicators…

I find PvP games with unlockables and grindables to be the opposite of a good time.

It’s still strange because content format is vastly different between discord and reddit. I can have access to many discords for certain topics I like, but discord is just not good for them.
What’s with the boomer humor tier jokes?
The joke is literally wifebad. That’s 60’s newspaper novelty. People have lived whole lives and died since these jokes were new.
I wonder if hidden tabs are. It’s not that I want tab groups on mobile, but it’d be interesting to see attempts, specially with how absolute dogshit grouped tabs are on mobile chrome, specially if there’s pop ups involved (an inversion from desktop chrome, which has the best grouped tabs)
I’ve used Firefox Nightly for ages, and admittedly, it sometimes lets a crashing bug through. But it was worth it for stuff like old.reddit redirect on tablet, lol. I just don’t want the stupid “USE OUR APP” banners while searching.
I basically blocked every single crypto community. But around the time of the GameStop bullshit, a LOT more of them started cropping up. I thought I was safe, then two days later another one pops up. And it was always the same non-discussion bullshit.
Worse than a scam, crypto is a cult.
There’s a slight gotcha here:
I’m in Asia and a lot of traditional chinese medicine you can buy is just regular medicine with a marketing disguise hiding the fact. Why yes, this is a box of whatever the fuck extract, very interesting, old northern recipe to cure the shit, let me just check what’s written on this paper, and, yep, there it is, it’s just Loperamide but with an additive to make it taste like Ginseng. Got it.
Which one do you abide by? Maybe the mozilla one or perhaps caniuse?
I don’t agree with this network access take. A lot of endangered cultures are simply being assimilated.
I was in a casual quiz in Hong Kong recently and one of the questions required us to know a language with less than 100 speakers. The default answer the quizzers had expected was Macanese Patuá. That sort of regional dialect existed in such a restricted set of conditions and between two different pressures to remove it (between Cantonese and Portuguese), that globalization simply drowned it out.
