II remember playing with FBSD 20 years ago and even then, it felt pretty solid and would of very likely made a great server platform, depending on your particular service needs.
Like when it was powering Hotmail and its several hundred million users?
And FreeBSD is different? OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD.. oh no! the fragmentation.
ANYBODY can spin up a distro. Of course there's fucking fragmentation. As for the package managers.. I haven't had APT break something in a DECADE at least.
I know the while "customize everything" is praised as good, but that only goes so far.
Translation: I miss the good old days when Bill Gates was throat-fucking me.
Dude.. You don't want fragmentation and you don't want choice? Then head your ass over to Mac or Windows. They already exist.
The government always pretends that a for-profit entity taking charge of taxpayer's money can have only happy outcomes. Add-in pork-barrelling contracts and scope-creep, and a lack of auditing and legal responsibility, and the result is worse outcomes on all metrics.
Right.. Like CA's high-speed rail project that has ballooned from $4B to $100B because it is being managed by the state government?
Just say "I'm a socialist cunt" and spare the rest of us the drivel. You know what for-profit companies care about? THE FUCKING PROFIT. You know what government workers don't give a shit about? The expenses.. It's not their fucking money. It's YOUR money. It's MY money.
It's a simple solution, but one that NEVER plays out in states run by Democrats. "NO CONTRACT OVERRUNS. This is the budget.. If you bid on it, you better be able to finish it, or the excess is coming out of YOUR POCKET."
There are TONS of examples of for-profit companies being able to do shit way better and cheaper than the government.
It takes a special kind of retard to think the average politician, most of whom have never operated a business, somehow have fiscal knowledge the rest of us don't, simple because they have a what? law degree?
It's not that y'all are stupid.. You are.. But that's not the part that bothers me. It's that you're stupid and so fucking convinced you are absolutely correct, yet y'all constantly display you don't rely on facts for anything. You go with feelings and just make shit up.
EXCEPT, spending next year is projected to increase by another $1 trillion over this year's spending. Okay, it's not 47% growth like this years projected numbers, but ~ +35% is still a significant rate.
This is my point. You're biased against A.I. That's fine. You don't need a reason to not like it, or maybe you have plenty of reasons. Equally irrelevant. The only thing that matters are the NUMBERS. You point to individual actions by companies and then have extrapolated that across the whole industry. You're either cherry-picking examples or you've got biased tunnel-vision.
Samsung is dumping $73 billion into AI in the next few years. While an impressive amount of money, it's a fact that means absolutely nothing to determining the course of the Industry as a whole. There's only two numbers you need to consider to determine what direction everything is going. Company investing and consumer spending. As long as both are headed up.... Well... that would kinda make anyone talking about the sky falling look like a moron.
Both are rising fast
As an aside.. ANYONE who thinks this shit is going away... is a fucking idiot. We may have years of greater spending, we may have years of lesser spending, but anyone who thinks that there will ever be a return to a pre-AI reality is delusional. We are in the absolute infancy of this space. Probably for worse, but we are right at the start of the next arms race. My guess is that the D.O.W (D.O.D) probably is already training their own models. And you can bet your ass that China's military is doing the same thing. Those two entities, alone, will drive a DECADE of spending.. D.O.D spending was what drove the entire super-computer industry for well over five decades. Hell, they're probably still the primary driver, but I'm just speculating on that. I don't recent data.
Cracks in the industry.... The only cracks are the rocks you must be smoking...
Full disclosure.. I pay for Claude Max.. So I'm not going to pretend I don't have my own biases. But they certainly didn't influence the results I obtained because I'm only looking at the 40,000 foot view. And that view screams spending for the foreseeable future, regardless of my own personal views. Numbers don't lie... Right?
Sure would be nice if you fucks understood what causes inflation....
Are you retarded? Deals fall apart all the time, you clown. That, by itself, doesn't mean anything to the AI adoption / expansion rate. Investments this year will surpass $2.5 trillion. That is a 47% increase over 2025. Where are the cracks? Anthropic just signed a massive deal with xAI to lease the entirety of Colossus I plus 300 megawatts of power for about $1.25 billion PER MONTH.
Pray tell, how big was OpenAI's order with SK Hynix?
Other than a failed / collapsed deal between OpenAI and Hynix, what other data did you look at? Where I'm from, 47% growth is considered pretty damn good. What part of the world do you live in where that is indicative of an industry beginning to teeter? Lichtenstein?
He needs to start thinking about what to do with all these security bugs/issues as they are not AI hallucinations. Maybe he should spend more time fixing his processes instead of spending useless time on his weekly rant (c)(tm)
Oh yeah.. Mr. Accomplished-nothing and chicken-cunt-posting-from-Anonymity. I'm sure what the guy, who has guided the development of the most successful software package on Earth, needs is lessons from you.
Seriously, what the fuck have you done that leads you to believe your opinion has any value at all?
Dazzle us..
Boy are you out of touch.. I've created several novel projects.. I know they're novel because I did some exhaustive searches.. Personal use only. I'm not inflicting this code on anyone else since I can't properly vet it.. But it works.. and so far it works damn good. Does what I need it to do.. Exactly.. without any features I don't want. And these are complex code-bases for.. what I'm working with.. 15,000 lines.. 5 sub-units, independently launchable. GUI driven..
I have no doubt that LLMs probably aren't a great choice for commercial or widely-used software.. But if a non-programmer can sit down and use less than 50% of a $100 Anthropic subscription.. I mean.. c'mon..
Well, Big Business could decide not to compensate people for jobs that were lost to AI, and we all starve in the streets, a la a 1929.
Why should they compensate people who have become surplus? It's a job.. Not a promise to pay you forever. Jesus, you people are fucking entitled. You demand everything because you exist. Health care paid for by someone else (it's not free healthcare - someone is paying for it), a guaranteed income (not because you bring a useful skill to the table - but because you happened to fall out of a vagina). Mind you, I'm not suggesting that some things shouldn't be tax-payer funded (schooling, police, fire, emergency services, limited welfare, food assistance, abuse shelters, etc). But you little commies have gotten fucking ridiculous. Looking back on the past 125 years and you goddamn lefties are sitting dead-center in the middle of every single act of mass murder that > 1,000,000 victims. And still you try to brainwash people into believing that shit. If you lose your job to AI and refuse to adapt and retrain, then fuck you.
What the hell don't you feel entitled to, by virtue of simply existing? Nobody gave the blacksmith or the laundress lifetime income when their industries were eliminated during the industrial revolution and, later, the appliance-age. Did you weep for the milkman or the asshole that manually lit the street lamps? What about the farriers? The Mom & Pop stores (and millions of associated employees) that have been driven into extinction by the likes of Walmart or Target? Every 20 or so years we go through this shit, and every 20 years you assholes act like you're the first ones to experience it. LEGIONS of accountants were displaced by the advent of software like Quickbooks and Turbo Tax. You have any idea how many ice-delivery guys lost their job when that asshole invented the freezer?
What is relatively recent, is you morons and your demands for compensation because your job was eliminated by the same relentless march of progress that wiped out countless professions over the last 250 years or so. If you're concerned you're going to lose your job to the bullshit-level AI's we have right now... Or you have lost a job to it, then may I suggest you act like a fucking adult and learn a new skill?
I'd rather be compensated for not being able to find any employment.
I'm sure you would. Lots of you fucks would love to sit and home all day, jerk off, play Playstation, and get a fucking check. Only, every single one of those dollars you'd be getting would be coming out of the pockets of the people still working. Please tell me you aren't one of those retards that think the root of ALL TAXES is anywhere else. Please tell me you don't think a 50% or 90% corporate tax is actually paid for by the corporation. You know where corporations get 100% of their money from, right? I'm talking at the lowest level.. The base..
Sure, you could start your own business, and employ 20 people doing something, but that would only last as long as there were people to buy whatever you sell or whatever your business is
Name a single time in all of human history, when that wasn't the case.. You think businesses in the 1950's persisted with no customers? Every business that anyone ever starts is with that understanding. You persist for exactly as long as people patronize your business. Walmart is Walmart because you fucks put a few dollars saved ahead of those small businesses. Walmart didn't expand because they were starved for customers. You clowns threw money at them like they were the only joint in town.
_or_ until you get bought out.
Just say you have no idea how any of this actually works. You can't be "bought out", involuntarily, asshole. Being bought out means you SOLD your company to a BUYER. You might be coerced into it, but that doesn't change the fact that companies are bought out when the owner DECIDES to sell them. Every single time you read about Microsoft (as an example) buying out some software company, I assure you that they wrote a check large enough for the founder to say "Okay".
Fantasy? According to you assholes, that's a real woman. I dunno why you're react negatively to the mental image of having a woman's cock in your throat..
Ah.. that's right.. It's all hypocrisy with you assholes. None of you fucktards really believe any of your own bullshit. The vast majority of you assholes will even push back against "green energy" deployments the moment you think it'll affect you, no matter how trivially.
Liberals.. The party of hypocritical fuck-faces. Trans-women.. A real woman until the moment you're confronted with a cock, right??
No particular reason? How about finite resources and time? Besides, your OS isn't gonna stop working tomorrow. Every one of you clowns loves to imply that shit. You just don't get any more official updates. If you can't be bothered to replace hardware every quarter-century.... That's on you, boss.
Always some twat trying to justify maintaining 30+ year-old hardware in the mainline kernel.. Clone the repo and maintain support.. There.. Problem solved.
And got fined about 12 million dollars.
That is nice.
but strip away some of the layers of unicorn dust and it's still just a (very) sophisticated auto-complete word prediction engine.
Yeah, well.. It's clearly more than the sum of its parts. At some point, those word prediction engines start figuring out how to process natural language, parse the details from the chatter, and produce working (I'm not saying it's good) code from a rough approximation of what I want.
It's not alive, it isn't conscious, it doesn't "dream," etc.
Yeah. We know. We get that it's a marketing term. Or more of a simile. Claude code stores memories... They aren't actually memories.. But, in a limited sense, they behave like a memory. Details that aren't "forgotten". What Anthropic is describing sounds more like "pondering" to me, but that just doesn't have the same zing to it.
Here's a hint. Sane people know these are just sophisticated pieces of software. And the people who don't understand, or think they're discovered the giant conspiracy to hide the sentient AI's, aren't gonna be swayed by your words.. Every time I hear one of these reports about some fuck offing himself because "his AI girlfriend cheated on him", I'm thrilled. Why do we insist on erecting ever-higher guardrails to protect the people who should not be passing on their DNA? Seriously.. I'm not suggesting we don't protect the "average intellect", but if you can't maintain a grip on reality, then maybe your DNA doesn't need to propagate. Natural selection. Not eugenics.. Stop trying to protect the 1% dumbest motherfuckers.
Point is, you folks can dispense with the "It's not alive" every time there's a fucking AI article that uses a simile. Who do you think your audience is?
cry me a river. fucking con-cucks have been bitching for decades about the debt when a Dem holds power but blow it up like frat boys partying like it's their last night on Earth. if you think you're going to get sympathy or agreement whining about relatively small sums spent on the poorest, then please FOAD & DIAF
It's all good. Exactly how I knew you're respond. Now go find a tranny and suck her dick.
In every non-trivial program there is at least one bug.
