I have about 7 or 8 machines running some version of linux. I try to switch as a daily machine every decade or so and works fine for a couple of weeks. Then something needs an update, that update then updates some dependencies which breaks a half dozen other programs. Half of those have new updates for it the other half dont. Of the half that do about half of those also update even more dependencies which then breaks even more programs. This spirals for a month or two sometimes settling out sometimes not. Eventually i get tire of fixing the machine and just want to use it so i go back to my windows box i havent had to fuck with since i put it together. Wait a decade or so and the cycle repeats. Just waiting on that time when the cycle breaks and im still using a linux box. Maybe another 30 some odd years and it will be ready.

21·23 days agoLmao. Because we all lmow the us government is totally going to respect its own laws and never ever violate or ignore them out right. You sound like a sov cit.

Lmao. Goes to a linux specific forum on lemmy and asks about windows. Expects useful replies. Why not go to the mormon tabermacle next and ask about islam.
75·1 month agoWord stopped hitler and stalin so well didnt they.
3·1 month agoLol what do you think we do now, with human code.
Its the vba. Its proprietary and not for sale anymore and theres not a good free replacement. Been writing a reporting system tha5needs scripting and have had to use javascrip amd heavily cover things for end users to even understamd what is happening.
17·1 month agoLmao. “Parents of lemmy…”
Responses: if i ever have kids…
11·1 month agoI did my time in start ups and VCs. Its not all that much different. They have a main product and you spend your timevenhancing or integrating that with everyone else. Its just getting started. Were in the bbs era of ai. Most people are still just trying out copilot. Go watch the machiners and creators on youtube or one of the other platforms. Its working it way into everything and still being refined. People pay way to much attention to hype and propoganda/advertising. Just like with tesla but electric cars are still going strong, getting better and increasingly replacing ice cars. Just because front men overhype things dont mean theyre without value. Like ive said in other comments ai as it is now is a tool like any other. There will be fhose that adapt and those that fall behind. This is all just deja vu for me with soalr power and electric cars from from the 80s and 90s. Theyll never be efficient enough, theyll never have the range, theyll take up to much space, be too heavy, wear out to fast, etc etc.
Lmao. What. There are barely 5 iterations of their 2 franchises. Where is this ‘quantity’ you claim.
I dont get to decide what i code at work. My manager and product owners decide based on business needs. Most of the time its fixes and adding or removing functions as competing interests change priorities. But its really good at documenting old code while everyone figures exactly what they want. This author is in the 80s asking why every company doesnt immediately have a website now that the internet is available.
I didnt give it access just had it make sceipts in various languages to handle large repetative file tasks. Something that wpuld take me 30-45 minutes toclpoks up and piece together it can do is 30-45 seconds. And depending on how simple or able you are to describe the task at hand the better it can do. Even when i know what i want to type, like during the blazor conversion it simply types faster for a much simpler prompt. Once i had a single page sorted i asked it for a step by step of what we did. Then took that and said ‘hey do this to the follpwing page abc.html’ and done. Then just tell it ‘now this page …’ etc etc. That was in copilot though so it could see my solutions files.
48·2 months agoSo are you one of those flying down the road staeing at your phone.
No this is LITERALLY the same argument made hundreds/thousands of years ago against writing and books. Its the same argument the amish use. It IS the luddit pinnicle argument.
1·2 months agoNo. None of those or other prptocols are above legislation or javlass politics. This starts and ends with the public amd who they vote for. Just moving the goal post isnt going to stop this.
This is literally the exact same argument made against using books and developing writing.
You can type at 300 words per minute with zero mistakes. Youre able to do than on systems youve never worked on before in languages youve never seen. #Doubt
There it is
