@retoor In fact, seems to be a domain problem.

I'd think it's human nature to want easy. Selecting path of least resistance.

Sure - it's !the case _all_ the time, but for the most part, yeah.

Hmm... This video popped up for me fairly recently:

https://youtube.com/watch/... .

The guy had at least a few good takes, like the fact that they train those using all the code - the good && the bad. You might be seeing the results of that.

Could be something entirely different, though.

@retoor I put a pin in it.

I happen to know that maritime industry was corrupted like that, at least some time ago. In order to get a job one would have to pay the recruiter.

Could've been some isolated incidents I've heard about, though.

@SidTheITGuy What war? I hold the position of 'there's room for both'.

Snek's a nice chat room, currently frequented by a small number of folks, whereas devRant is an older, more established platform for posts - rants about tech, broadly speaking.

Why would it ever have to be one or the other?

OT: Personally I have no problem w/ a company making a determination of what they want / allow. It's their right to disallow the use of LLMs. Going against that is in this case warrants a disciplinary action as is the case w/ the guy that was caught.

Go, go, Russian APT.

Yup. All that would make this ad spam complete is a missing site link. Probably missing because then it would've been so much more obvious.

But then again, it already is.

@wojtek322 I know. Which is very nice to see. I'm sure many of us are glad about that.

Core community nowadays is fairly small, but very tight.

@jestdotty Damned if you do, damned if you don't, eh?

@retoor Found this video 'Ubuntu's Rust GNU Utils Replacement 17x Slower & Buggy' purely by accident, too. I'm sure you've already seen it, though.

Yeah... I don't really see how the phrase 'with all due respect' is being nice. It _always_ come right before the insult.

All in all, I like the American saying 'agree to disagree'. Saves us a lot of back && forth where for some reason people have this need to make others agree w/ their view.

So one person likes using LLMs - that's fine, same for !liking to use them.

@BordedDev You might be right. The best scapegoat is the one that can't defend himself.

@Lensflare a hilariously failed attempt at pinging you just one comment above.

/* Those pesky typos... */

@retoor I've got just the right comic for you regarding that idea of rewriting CNU Core Utilities in Rust:

https://commitstrip.com/en/2017/... .

@BordedDev I'm also using Notepad++. This particular feature of temp files being saved is kind of neat.

Was _just_ presented w/ this ad titled 'Turn any idea into an app with Base44'. Those slogans... '_Anybody_ can build a fully working app _w/o knowing how to code_.' Kind of sickening. Watch at your own risk.

@jestdotty Ah, so generally you have design issues. For what I'm using it, I have no problems w/ the functionality.

@jestdotty I, however, enjoy its simplicity... Unless I'm misunderstanding something. I haven't seen anything awkward about it.

Well... good thing dR wasn't like Oprah. 'You get a `404`, you get a `404`, EVERYBODY GETS A `404`!!!'.

@Lensflare Ha, quite true. C&C 4 was 'just OK' at best. Then all the web browser && mobile games just destroyed what was once a great series.

@Lensflare Interestingly enough I learned about it myself solely by watching that one episode of 'CSI: Crime Scene Investigation' - S03E15 - Lady Heather's Box.

https://devrant.molodetz.nl/preview... .

@Lensflare I miss the series. Ever since the C&C 4 it went downhill fast.

@BordedDev Ah. Met that type in the past. PM's Significant Other was a programmer. She once fixed that * cough * very complicated bug of timer overflowing... it was probably the case of texts overlapping when the timer went from 2-digits to 3-digits or something, so her magical fix was obviously

```

if timer > 99;

timer = 99;

```

...or the other way around the timer would go into the negative, so

```

if timer < 0;

timer = 0;

```

whatever the bug was, that was her skill level.

That's true.

What's also true is that the slave in the BDSM world it the one who has the power.

So, all in all, this *new movement of 'let's change the inappropriate words because the world is a marshmallow' is just retarded && should die already.

@Lensflare Never claimed it to be one. It's just an alternative way of communication.

Yup. Whenever I have to change the jumper setting on my ancient E-IDE drive from Slave to Master I think to myself 'yay - slave liberation'.

/* FFS. */

@Lensflare Which is why it allows private chats between two people, or custom rooms w/ just a selection of people. I haven't used the latter option extensively, though.

. /* I am curious, too. */

Same type of responses when using older hardware / software. The 'good people' of the internet will jump right in to give you the * cough * solution: 'Just update' or 'You're still using $something in $year ? That's bad. Update.' etc.

@retoor It does raise an eyebrow.
