Are you trying to say the reason Nazis were bad was the "socialism" part?

Russian bot or really dumb?

It's a thing humans do when you suggest an idea, they can extrapolate from that to the next logical step. As time goes on, the number of people using cursive declines to nearly 0 so the only places people would come across cursive would be reading historical documents. There might be some use in it, but I would much rather have the future generations spending time on something less niche like typing skills or web research

Other skills are more broad at least. Spending months learning cursive just so you can read a historical document is a waste of time.

Very true. They won't handle issues or modifications at the front desk, plus they're unlikely to give you an extra upgrade or anything like that.

It's making kids waste time learning a useless skill when they could be learning stuff needed in modern society.

There's no precedent for AI generated code retaining the license of code from the training set. There are only so many ways to write some of this code, it's bound to show up even if someone independently writes the same code.

The amount of code in a typical PR for the kernel would likely be more unique for the context. It wouldn't have a "rightful owner", it's just code how it's written.

Let's be real here. If Bill stopped flying and become a hermit living off foraged berries it wouldn't be a drop in the bucket for the climate impact of humanity. We need larger changes and those sorts of changes can't be done by individuals, government regulation is needed. Unfortunately the Republicans either are too stupid to believe in climate change or realize they'll be dead so can benefit from short term profits by ignoring it

Hate to break it to you, but AI can handle most code just fine and do it much faster including test coverage. I can kick it off and work on something else, then 10 minutes later review the changes, make improvements or suggest alternatives.

It's not appropriate for everything yet. More complex systems interacting would give it problems, but for smaller features it's fine

Claude is used pretty heavily for coding with people paying directly and through Microsoft. I've used it and with the right configuration and "skills" it's very good at the job.

To protect the company (usually upper management) which could mean firing troublesome employees or troublesome management - depends which is cheaper

That's the thing about new technology. It's amazing to some people that don't understand it, but once you get used to it, it becomes pretty standard. Take these new devices from Ikea - you could set them up to run locally, basically unhackable unless someone breaks in and takes them apart. Useful for stuff like turning on and off devices and saving power.

It's like when the IR TV remote was invented, saved people from getting their fat backsides off the sofa to use a manual switch.

If you're travelling places you need an ICE vehicle but have the ability to charge for short distances they're great. Hybrids get much better gas mileage and the plug in battery provides coverage for a good chunk of regular driving

That's not entirely true. Some systems are designed to verify facts against other sources or do searches and for the bare model it's of course based on the training data. You could tune it to be very conservative about its responses but then it would start to be less useful

Turns out that was just the "Department of Shutting Down Programs Conservatives Don't Care About"

Conservatives tend to get really confused when someone mentions "DEI" - they think it means companies are forced to fire all their white employees and hire white ones, but it's more like if you have 99% white people and you're comparing two candidates with equal skills, go with the one that increases the diversity of your company. It even makes good business sense to have a more diverse employee base.

Just like critical race theory, diversity, equity, and inclusion have been twisted by the right into the boogeyman that's why white people in dying coal towns can't get jobs
