Comment Give me a tool to do X (Score 1) 86

If X is well-defined (and examples abound in the training set) you get the correct thing out.

Maybe a little massaging is necessary around the edges.

Saves me a few hours here and there.

Overall a net gain. And oddly enough, nearly all the code I've written recently is ai generated this way.

But.

Most of these little one-prompt wonders exist to take as input something out of a massive code base I wrote by hand over many years and continue to tweak by hand.

Microsoft has probably the most illustrious history of bugs where just visiting a website or opening an email can get your system hacked, but you're right, this is not a problem unique to them.

These days, Lookout asks you before it loads any images from outside your organization...

We should really be building operating systems with more process isolation and clear permissions systems for which apps can interact with which other apps in which ways. There's elements of this in Android, and in capabilities systems like selinux, but the more powerful they get the harder they are to use. This is inevitable, but a lot more can still be done to make this kind of functionality accessible to users.

I'm curious how breed behavior will be handled. For example, for the most part, Belgian Malinois have no off switch. I wonder if there is a way to dial them back from redline when not on duty, but still have a working dog.

I think it s a good idea to breed out the congenital problems. Less cruel overall.

So being paid to perform a service has now graduated from "handout" to "bribe" in clown world?

In child rapist island world, bad people made deals to grift and graft in between bouts of raping children. One of those people is sitting in the big chair, deciding who gets paid instead of the people the constitution says are supposed to do it. You want to act surprised that people believe the funds are being misappropriated?

The only contractors in the US which have a chance to get anything to the moon are SpaceX, Blue Origin, and Boing. All are hugely problematic for a variety of reasons, and asserting that noticing that is clown shit is itself cuck shit.
