Quick we need this, an unopened can of Billy Beer, his cardigan sweater, and his Habitat for Humanity hammer to bring him back!

I just outed myself as an oldster, didn’t I?

I’ve had the same thought. I think of it as “transparent pricing” - like a nutrition label but for price. Maybe doesn’t even need to be as specific, but has to clearly show the profit the retailers and manufacturers are making on it. Honestly think it’s going to be the only way we get any downward pressure on prices - ever since COVID, they’ve found that they can just keep raising prices and as long as all of them do it, consumers don’t have any leverage.

When you say you have it cite its sources, do you actually read the source? Because I’ve noticed models continually cite sources that don’t support what it’s saying.

And it most definitely cannot think/reason/ideate - full stop.

Saints Row IV - I liked aspects of the earlier games, but I actually really enjoyed the meta silliness of IV. I accept that I don’t have a lot of company in having this opinion 🙂

EDIT: I guess I was wrong! I swear every time I’ve seen SRIV mentioned, I’ve seen tons of hate directed at it. Glad to see there are a bunch of us! Dozens even 😄

To be fair, he does address that in the intro to the article

Ha! Didn’t expect a thread on corporate snooping on SSD activity would end up with a link to RobWords 😄

They’re using the “thorn” letter from Old English. A silly affectation but just substitute “th” for the symbol they used.

Instead of reading the AI summary, maybe read the actual quote snippets or even better, the actual linked pages.

Not quite. From the very page you linked to:

“Horology is commonly used specifically with reference to the mechanical instruments created to keep time”

Horology is generally used to refer to watchmaking/clockmaking, just as a horologist is a term to used to refer to watchmakers.

The main term for the Wikipedia page you linked is Chronometry, and that would be the more correct term to use when describing the study of time. There’s even discussion on the talk page about how it was probably incorrect to have merged the Chronometry and Horology pages, but edits haven’t been made to fix it yet.

I mean, a bunch have actually quit?

Five years to fix a problem they caused. I guess this is what “Nowhere to go but up” looks like.

Probably because we have the worst mix of low govt regulations and high amounts of AI tech being pushed at us.

Ipsos is a poll-for-hire firm and they just design the surveys their clients want, unlike Pew which is doing actual independent research polling. It’s like the difference between tobacco company-funded specialized research and independent, government funded basic research.

Here, try this - genuine, well-regarded organization with actual experience at opinion polling far in excess of the clanker wankers at Stanford: https://www.pewresearch.org/global/2025/10/15/how-people-around-the-world-view-ai/

But many are worried about AI’s effects on daily life. A median of 34% of adults say they are more concerned than excited about the increased use of AI, while 42% are equally concerned and excited. A median of 16% are more excited than concerned.

Yeah, and you can automatically trust such an independent and neutral source as that 🙄

None of the stuff here surprises me in general, but the specifics on sources of attacks, how much crypto shit is unsecured for it to be default approach for so many attempts, how much were bots vs actual humans, etc. is all very interesting.

Vibe coding strikes again

I was referring (mostly jokingly) to his spending 90% of his time debugging. But you do you.

“I used to spend 10% of my time writing code then 90% debugging it”

Skill issue
