I mean should const not be the default? I do want to mutate objects sometimes but usually I just need a view of it’s state and not write access. It also makes mutable data a lot more obvious if whoever wrote the code your reading wasn’t putting const on stuff they should have been. Seems like something all languages with const semantics should have done

I presume you don’t live in the US because lol. Living is more expensive than ever before in history but shit like phones and TVs cheap yay?

For now, they are dirt cheap for now and extremely unprofitable. We’re looking at more than a doubling of subscription price before they even approach profitability

What’s wrong with liking cuties?

Sometimes you don’t feel like eating a large orange.

Well they are an Ex chairman so hopefully that’s a good sign?

LLMs making you code faster means your slow not LLMs fast

Very true the last ones weren’t going around spewing as many Nazi talking points

It’s actually much more valuable when kept around for blackmail and fun things of that sort. Only once everybody in power in dead or stripped of it will anybody genuinely try and bring any of it to the public

It’s not an assumption it’s just a matter of practical reality. If we’re at best a decade off from that point why pretend it could suddenly unexpectedly improve to the point it’s unrecognizable from its current state? LLMs are neat, scientists should keep working on them and if it weren’t for all the nonsense “Ai” hype we have currently I’d expect to see them used rarely but quite successfully as it would be getting used off of merit, not hype.

I did not always use an ad blocker. Frankly my stance is they’ve made their bed, now they get to lie down in it. If it wasn’t for YouTubes ad quality being so poor I would have never bothered taking the 30 seconds it takes to install an adblock those 10 or so years ago

Okay so imagine for a second that somebody just invented voice to text and everyone trying to sell it to you lies about it and claims it can read your thoughts and nobody will ever type things manually ever again.

The people trying to sell us LLMs lie about how they work and what they actually do. They generate text that looks like a human wrote it. That’s all they do. There’s some interesting attributes of this behavior, namely that when prompted with text that’s a question the LLM will usually end up generating text that ends up being an answer. The LLM doesn’t understand any part of this process any better than your phones autocorrect, it’s just really good at generating text that looks like stuff it’s seen in training. Depending on what exactly you want this thing to do it can be extremely useful or a complete scam. Take for example code generation. By and large they can generate code mostly okay, I’d say they tend to be slightly worse than a competent human. Genuinely really impressive for what it is, but it’s not revolutionary. Basically the only actual use cases for this tech so far has been glorified autocomplete. It’s kind of like NFTs or Crypto at large, there is actual utility there but nobody who’s trying to sell the idea to you is actually involved or cares about that part, they just want to trick you into becoming their new money printer.

Douno off the top of my head. To take a wild guess they might just wrap a file handle and give it s nice api? If that’s what they do then moving from the file zeros out he handle for basically the same reason smart pointers set their internal pointer to nullptr, so they don’t delete it (or close the file in this case) underneath the new object.

Depends on the object what happens when they are moved from. Some objects are put into a valid moved from state (usually depends on if doing so is free or required anyway. For example to satisfy the invariant of the moved to unique pointer the moved from pointer needs to be set to nullptr in order to prevent the moved tos unique pointer being deleted from underneath it)

It’s not controversial your just really stupid or really stupid and also a natzi

It hasn’t though? That short “film” in the thumbnail is very not great. Just to summarize a few issues clothing items randomly change colors, clothes randomly switch to different clothes, they attempted to copy the really nice crane shot in Frieren but used “AI” to do it which just smeared ugly green shit around the screen cause there were leaves, a path they are walking on randomly changes material multiple times, ect ect. All the usual AI video crap. They didn’t solve any of the issues it has and it there’s one “animator” credited.

Spoilers if you care (no I’m not going to actually mark them) but there’s a part where using AI would have been a really good directing decision, especially with the faults but because the “director” is just a tech bro who’s incapable of understanding art they completely missed an extremely good use case.

Actual animation studios don’t and won’t use this crap until it’s dramatically better. The closest thing they currently use is cacani (actually an interesting tool scroll through that) and it uses absolutely no “Ai” whatsoever

Because it sounds like English words which is “cool”

Eyy I just watched Red Ranger, extremely enjoyable for how stupid it is. I bet I’d have loved power rangers if I watched it as a kid

Since there’s been some good replies to this I shall now add my oh so very important reply to the pile.

Water isn’t actually wet, water wets things. Is a cup filled with water wet? No, the cup is dry and contains water. Are freshly washed dishes wet? Yeah, they have some water on them that hasn’t dried off yet.

“Is water wet”, “Is (breakfast) cereal a soup” and “Are hotdogs a sandwich” are some of my favorite stupid nonsense arguments to have. It’s entirely pointless but there is an actual right answer going by the definitions

I can’t judge but wow. Impressive

You cannot have a string argument, arguments and variables in JS don’t have a type. All you have in JS is objects. Actual functions, like full on function foo(){} are still objects, like you can actually store data on the things.
