- Comment on GitHub folds into Microsoft following CEO resignation — once independent programming site now part of 'CoreAI' team 1 week ago:
Yes and no.
Yes in that (to Microsoft) the copilot product is more important than the strategy that is open-source social coding.
No in the sense that they have already made it that… it’s not 100% cohesive, but “github” is the thing that manages engagment, organizes todos, generates the code, stores the code, performs code reviews, builds the code, deploys the code, answers tech questions, alerts you to security issues, etc. As a product it is an everything-blob… already… right now.

You can label the top-right region as the “ice box”.

Why is the milk pipline so huge? Planning on using 10x milk compared to water? :)

I found the structural engineer! … No, seriously though… I’m shocked at how many people don’t recall “building block” level logic. Even contractors making structural modifications to homes, where they bluff their way through responsibility and the consequences include human life. IMO, we should all see the image on the right as wrong, as all the weight is resting on the four fasteners.

Destroyed by mold. Could not afford to fix the roof leak above it.

My compliments to your vocabulary and effective word choice.
- Comment on CTO reveals new AI plan... 5 weeks ago:
I don’t see why… once you “buy a column” (which you must weigh the trade-off towards readability), subsequent uses of that column on other lines are free (save the line itself, of course).
- Comment on CTO reveals new AI plan... 5 weeks ago:
Ok… just for you, I will extend the saying to be “every line and column is a liability”.
- Comment on CTO reveals new AI plan... 5 weeks ago:
Even then, so the theory goes… every line of code is a liability, it is only emergent properties of the system as a whole that makes it an asset. It takes but one line to destroy it’s value, and in general a 2kloc codebase is more valuable than a 4kloc codebase, if they do the same thing. QED? :)

I hate that I like this.

By using the software as intended. I guess I could file a bug report, but I think it’s hilarious that you think I spent a bunch of time compositing a gimp screenshot to that level of detail, but refuse to believe I would spend even a few seconds compositing the original (with obvious 3rd arm and poorly colored zig-zag join points).
- Comment on Anything for you, babe... 1 month ago:
I don’t know what you think I’m claiming. I just mashed some images together, I never said I took them with a camera. FYI: The screenshot is legit. Also, you might be interested to learn about “merge down”, it really helps with layer management. docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-layer-merge-down.html
- Comment on Anything for you, babe... 1 month ago:
Yes, the base images are AI generated, but it will actually refuse to generate such an image (child endangerment or abduction).
- Comment on Anything for you, babe... 1 month ago:
I have no idea what that actually proves, as I could just as easily mess with the gimp screenshot in, say… gimp… (or I suppose ask GPT to make a gimp screenshot?) but here you go. Image

I wonder if people are mistaking my rough gimp composition for AI giving the guy a third arm…

I guess it is allowed in the sense that moderates won’t remove it, without a guarantee against an angry mob razing it with down-votes. :)

The first half of the game plays kinda like a tower defense game, except there is one peculiar enemy that just appears, disappears, and multiplies strategically (eventually forcing a loss), then it switches to you being that character with time-control… complete with seeing previous threads (your own character) sorta like adding another unit each time you rewind time.
