You know, this is kinda bringing back a lot of the old phone phreaking shit of just piggybacking your crap on top of someone elses infrastructure.

This is the disconnect we are seeing. It is a useful tool for improving the QUALITY of our output, but its not labor saving. The problem is that American industry doesn’t care about quality and only wants to use this if it saves on labor costs.

Its like an expose revealing that literally everyone heavily involved in crypto trading is a complete dickbag.

Article is about collecting and grading often unplayable vintage console game media.
This is like saying that “baseball is dying” because baseball card traders are assholes.

Reddit@lemmy.world•A little observation I wanted to share, how lemmy's engagement per user is higher than reddit(10x by some metrics)English
5 monthsPeople go to Lemmy because they got banned on Reddit or because their communities fell apart because of reedits bullshit or because they noticed that the feed is completely jacked with bots and disinformation.
In other words, the people going to Lemmy are generally highly active users. Which would probably worry Reddit if they were concerned about actually getting content from their members instead of AI and bots.

These guys all said the same thing before they participated in a study that proved that they were less efficient than their peers.

That’ll work right up until the shareholders start hearing “we got AI!” as the equivalent to “we invested in Enron!”. I hope they have a plan for that.

Your argument depends entirely on the assumption that you know more about using AI to support coding than the experienced devs that participated in this study. You want to support that claim with more than a “trust me, bro”?

Are they though? They’ve invested like a trillion dollars into this and it doesn’t seem any closer to actually making money.

Well, that’s what they say, but then it doesn’t actually work, and even if it did it’s not any easier or cheaper than teaching humans to do it.
More to the point, that is exactly what the people in this study were doing.

Linux@programming.dev•Jolla Trying Again To Develop A New Sailfish OS Linux SmartphoneEnglish
7 monthsFunny take given the resurgence of standalone mp3 players and handheld gaming machines, all with 3.5mm jacks.
Those were all supposed to be dead too.

7 monthsGet me a linux smart phone with a headphone jack and I will buy it in a heartbeat, but I don’t think very many other people will.




Even if you are trying to just look at your own feed fully half of what you see if just random ass subs absolutely loaded with bot accounts pushing right wing bullshit and product placement.
