[…] Boost is totally screwing up the references display
Yeah, I’ve heard report of that bug in Boost before [1] [2].
Out of curiosity, what does it look like for you?

It’s not off-topic when the person in question is involved.
As stated in the title, the topic is concerning the AI bots that are spamming GitHub repos ^[1]^. I personally encountered the bot in nutomic’s repo ^[2]^, so I used it as an example. Given this, your comment feels off-topic.

Maybe a joke at the expense of StackOverflow. […]
Yeah, I figured that, but I don’t understand how it’s relevant to this post.
- Comment on There now exist bots that spam GitHub repos with AI generated solutions to issues 6 days ago:
I’m not sure I understand the relevance of your comment. Could you explain?
- Comment on There now exist bots that spam GitHub repos with AI generated solutions to issues 6 days ago:
[…] Who’s that […]?
I presume they are referring to @nutomic@lemmy.ml ^[1]^. They are one of the main Lemmy developers ^[1.1]^.
[…] what does he have to do with this post?
I presume they are bringing up @nutomic@lemmy.ml because the example GitHub repository that I cited ^[3]^ is owned by @nutomic@lemmy.ml ^[2]^; that being said, specifically regarding their claim itself that @nutomic@lemmy.ml is transphobic ^[4]^ and is a genocide denier ^[4]^ is entirely off topic, imo.
I will make no comment on the veracity of the claim itself without further evidence. I do not wish to speak for @nutomic@lemmy.ml — I will let them speak for themself here should they wish.

Anecdotally, I have personally encountered a bug where my Linux system couldn’t handle the EDID from the monitor — so that particular model of monitor didn’t function with Linux despite it working fine on Windows.

[…] Which is why I’ll also assert that Literature classes as taught in later high school and into college aren’t really designed to be communication proficiency classes but art appreciation classes. […]
I think this is a fair point to make. I agree. Though, I would like to point out that that isn’t me downplaying “art appreciation”, but I agree that it is different than a subject targeted at improving clear communication.
- Comment on Anon's PC works 2 months ago:
My PC is still largely the same, in general spirit, as when I built it (c 2014-2015). But I have had to upgrade some key components over time. First was the move from a 1TB WD Blue HDD to a Samsung 860 Pro 128GB SSD (for my OS’s drive), and, related to that, at some point soon after, I moved my games drive from an HDD to an SSD. Next, I upgraded my GPU from an Nvidia GeForce GTX 760 to a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080. This build state lasted a decently long time until I switched from Windows to Linux, so I switched my Nvidia GPU to an AMD Radeon RX 6600 (not exactly an upgrade, but more of a side-grade) to improve the user experience. The most recent change (last year, iirc?) was upgrading my RAM from 8GB DDR3, to 16GB DDR3. My CPU (Intel Core i5-4690k) is starting to really show its age, though, so I’ve been wanting to upgrade that, but that will likely entail a near rebuild of my entire system, so I’ve been avoiding it, but, unfortunately, it’s increasingly becoming more of an issue.

[…] I recommend recurring training.
For clarity, do you mean, for example, having to re-pass a drivers test to renew one’s license?

Instead of adding it to a mandatory school curriculum, would you be satisfied with a more strict licensing process?

More what I’m getting at, regardless of language used in Shakespeare is whether you think Shakespeare, as a whole, is obsolete. So, iiuc, you aren’t saying that you think that Shakespeare, as a whole, is obsolete, but that that the language used within it is, which makes it difficult to read?
- Comment on Mitochondria 3 months ago:
[…] I propose that teaching Shakespeare instead of more in depth driver’s ed isn’t entirely ethical. […]
I think you misunderstood me. To be completely fair, I was rather vague. I wasn’t arguing that one was more ethical than the other. My argument about ethics was from the perspective of further subsidizing something that already receives enormous subsidies — ie driving and cars (this is conjecture at the moment, but I can go into more detail if you’d like).

[…] If they get something wrong behind the wheel of a car, what’s the worst that can happen? […]
Out of curiosity, do you live in an area that doesn’t require a driver’s license in order to be legally allowed to drive on a public road?

How many hours of the average American’s life will be spent behind the wheel of a car? […]
Would it be a goal of yours to reduce the amount of time that one spends driving in their life? If so, do you think that teaching drivers ed in school will achieve that end?
- Comment on Mitochondria 3 months ago:
replace it with a semester of “living in the world” lessons that might just be a week of driver’s ed, that field trip to the fire department, some first aid, just cram a semester full of basic adulting skills.
We used to call this “Home Economics” but that got stigmatized as the cake baking class girls took while the boys were in shop class, and then women doing housework became a politically charged issue so we deprecated even that.
Okay, but that isn’t what you said prior — that’s shifting the goalpoasts. You specifically said
Replace them with a semester of […] fire safety […]

[…] the reason we teach Shakespeare in high schools is because English teachers like it […]
Hm, this feels like conjecture. Do you have proof of that?
