  • Firefox browser falls to AI. What do we do now?

  • There is a wall decoration at the Enschede central station listing all the important companies started there by the local university and all but one I had not heard of (which is prob my fault) but those also all sounded like 'Floorp' I get a chuckle every time I walk past it.

  • Careful, don't slander Comic Sans. It is an asshole, and has the party people on its side.

    (I also think the font gets too much flak, perhaps to really show our distaste of the comment make it the fraktur font, and flip it around (I did recently learn that flipping a front upside down/around makes it very hard to read for people who have trouble visualizing things in their head, which I had not thought about as being an issue)

  • I'm a lot more afraid of the recursive effect of this joke. We could have at scale at scale.

  • Some of the horrors are also going to be load bearing for some fixes people dont properly realize because the space of computers which can run windows is so vast.

    Think something like that happend with twitter, when Musk did his impression of a bull in a china store at the stack, they cut out some code which millions of Indians, who used old phones, needed to access the twitter app.

  • They now updated this to say it is just a research project and none of it will be going live. Pinky promise (ok, I added the pinky promise bit).

  • AI image generators have just 12 generic templates

  • Wonder if this is some sort of pre model collapse sign.

  • Talked to somebody who is really into chatbot roleplay (of the 'longer term stories with new fantasy characters' type), and he mentioned that he needs to take his characters stories and archetypes to different models every now and then as a sort of refresh, as the models tend to eventually converge into certain stuck patterns. First clue of this seems to be that the replies seem to start to become a similar pattern of text organization. Sorry if this is vague as it is second hand, but the main point is, text based LLMs prob also do this.

  • Thanks! Had not really thought about how dice would mess with the complexity of things tbh.

  • That would be such a "we didnt know the dotcom bubble was popping a month later" move.

  • Obscure crypto programming term. Sure

  • Robin AI: a legal review AI that was humans! And it just went broke

    Jump

  • Wonder how they managed to do that legally, saying it was AI but letting people see the data makes me think they might have broken a few laws.

  • Took me a second to realize you were actually talking about backgammon, and not using gammon (as in the british angry ham) as a word replacement.

    This makes me wonder, how hard is backgammon? As in computability wise, on the level of chess? Go? Or somewhere else?

  • 80 character limit

    Lot of roguelike development in the past was still obsessed with that. Was a bit amusing, think even they have dropped this now.

  • I feel bad for the gullible ND people who spend time applying to this thinking they might have a chance and it isn't a high level coverup attempt.

    Otoh, somebody should take some fun drugs and tape their interviews, see how it works out. Are there any Hunter S Tech journalists around?

  • Him fellating musk re tesla is funny considering the recent stories about reliability abd how the market is doing. And also the roadster 2, and the whole pivot to ai/ROBOTS!

    (The author being positive on the theoretical SpaceX going public vs a little bit later the reactions of the spacex subreddit on Musk actually saying they will go public later is a funny split of opinions. The subreddit saw it as a betrayal https://bsky.app/profile/niedermeyer.online/post/3ma4hvbajns2d).

  • The electrons is turning into an annoying shibboleth. Also going to age oddly if more light based components really kick off. (Ran into somebody who is doing some phd work on that, or at least that is what I got from the short description he gave).
