The ultimate endpoint of vibe-coding. No AI code is copyright-able. it's all GPL by default. That sounds like a great idea. I would support that.

You can compile it, use it, copy it, sell it, improve it, release the source...keep going...If people want to compile and use it themselves..so be it.

Let's see... there is a *much* lower than 1 in 4,200 chance of my toy drone injuring anyone or damaging anyone's property but it's controlled by very strict regulations that are supposed to be their for the public's safety and hugely constrain where and when I can fly it.

Someone explain how this works.

Make Lynx Great Again!!!!!

You kids and your graphical browsers... bah!

And while you're at it, get off my lawn!

Eeeeew. Something hit a nerve for sure! How dare anyone insult MiKr0zopht's AI?

This outrageous level of paranoia over "alleged" drone sightings will cost human lives soon.

Here we have the US military mis-identifying a party balloon as a drone and firing a powerful laser at it -- while members of the public get prosecuted every year for flicking their laser-pointers at helicopters and airliners.

In Germany, police will be allowed to shoot at "alleged" drones even though it has been clearly proven that most (if not all) of the recent drone sightings were simply mis-identified aircraft lights.

Can anyone see the potential for disaster here?

The mis-identification of aircraft flying at night as "drones" has become rife, dating back beyond the NY/NJ "drone" incidents that caused such concern in the USA a year or two ago. Almost without exception, these "drones" are real aircraft (often passenger flights) carrying people through the skies. How long before one of them is shot down by paranoid trigger-happy idiots?

Paranoia is a mental health issue and it's infecting governments and authorities around the world.

Before someone says "but... Ukraine..." I ask you: how many people have died as the result of actions by bad actors using drones in the USA or outside the war zones in Europe?

That's a big fat ZERO!

Yes, it "could" happen but right now it's far more likely that innocent people will die from friendly fire produced by paranoid idiots on the ground with guns and lasers.

Don't worry... the internet will route around this damage. Discord will become dust.

It's really worth reading the 450 comments on this video Why this crash matters to everyone that flies a drone for a sense of how the recreational drone community is feeling about this crash.

Who else remembers 1channel, FlixNet and the others?

Ah... happy days. At one point almost everything that had ever been screened or broadcast was available to anyone with a Raspberry Pi and a copy of Kodi with a few choice plug-ins. I'd gladly have paid $50 a month to have access to all that stuff but now, with the destruction of that piracy vector, much of the content is no longer accessible and what's left is fragmented over a dozen different streaming services that all want to empty your wallet.

Hence I now just watch my collection of hundreds of DVDs and BuRay disks that I bought for a song when the video-hire stores started shutting dow and which I've ripped to my NAS.

I laugh at you all!

A Nigerian prince has contacted me and advised me that I now own ONE BILLION BTC which is being kept in a chest in that nation's treasury. All I have to do is send him 4Kg of gold to cover the costs of the paperwork and all that BTC will be *mine!!

Those of you who speculate on crypto and precious metals are all fools -- only *I* am onto a sure thing.

I shall laugh at you and ridicule you when my container-load of BTC is delivered next week. Hang on, apparently another 1Kg of gold is required because of inflation. No problems... prepare to be humiliated you crypto and bullion fools!!! The wealth will soon be mine!

Where is all the money for this UBI going to come from?

Tax the rich?

Yeah, that's not working now so I don't see it working just because UBI is a thing.

The sad reality is that AI is likely to cause major financial stress, regardless of whether there's a bubble or not. Once AI improves worker productivity by a huge amount there will be job losses. That loss of jobs means less money in the economy to purchase goods and services. Reduced demand means reduced profits for the companies that employed AI in the first instance.

Net result: huge economic contraction and a situation where nobody wins.

The oft-described utopia where nobody ever needs to work again (are you listening Elon) is better described as 100 percent unemployment -- with all the heartache and financial difficulties that brings.

Sounds like the rules of the road were followed. This can happen and does happen daily.

Lucky kid!

Exactly. There are times they, Big Pharma, fuck up, but on the whole, it's been pretty great.

The fact that everything reverts back to pre-ozempic fairly quick actually make me think it's ok. Nothing permanent looks like it's getting changed, good or bad.

Discipline has nothing to do with it. Some people's body's are just different. Willpower isn't the same, even the cravings aren't the same. I'm not going to come down on anyone anymore for losing to it. It's possible that the lucky who don't need it simply don't have the same cravings, so the willpower isn't needed. Maybe they do, maybe they don't. But we can't say. My willpower is good for 2 months, then the body stops listening. GLP-1s have let me push past that for a year. that is amazing to me. I know it's not me doing the heavy lifting, and that sits on my mind. But my heart, knees, body in general is feeling much much better.

It's like a Blood Pressure medication or any lifelong pill/shot.

I'm more eager for the pill version of Zepbound, since I already take daily meds, adding 1 isn't a big deal. The shot is easy, mostly painless, so it's not an issue. Just different from my standard procedure.

Seems like everyone reverts rather quickly. So the internal systems haven't changed; we are treating symptoms at this point. Once they can figure out the mechanism to lock in the change, that will be the most impressive part. However, I don't see that happening anytime soon.

I did something similar with writing an app for my iPhone. Wasn't anything earth shattering, just little bowling game.

I tried to stay with the agent, and even reviewed what was done, offered my own corrections. It was fun to a point. Kind of like turning on cheat codes to a game.

Yeah, you can complete it sooner, but it's lacks that "I did it!" feeling. I need that. not everyone does, sometimes it's just they need the $ at the end of the line.

So to each their own I say. But if I have to maintain it, I should have an input into it's creation (vibe coded).

My tech debt right now is more than enough, from 30+ years of ERP code, I don't need Vibe code on top of that.

What are the national security implications for the USA if Canadians regularly cross the border in to the US while driving their Sino-EV?

The US is paranoid enough to have banned DJI drones (in fact *all* foreign drones) on the grounds of "national security" because they could photograph sensitive locations -- but then again, couldn't a Sino-EV with its plethora of onboard cameras. Given that these Sino-EVs are going to be "chatting" back to their Chinese manufacturers, how are we to know that they won't be dumping screeds of sensitive image data right into the hands of the CCP?

Inquiring minds wish to know.
