Wouldn't it be cool if YouTube showed "the most skipped" segment in addition to "the most replayed"?

I wish a pointy stick was the only weapon of war humanity ever needed.

I am pretty sure that if we spent all the ingenuity on technology that eliminated the need to compete over scarce resources, we'd already be able to provide a roof, food and comfort to anyone wanting it. Instead we waste time inventing ways of taking from the neighbor. So disappointing.

Didn't think I'd say it, but man do I miss dumb the dump routers of early 2010. Like, this is what I see within 5 minutes of setting up a fancy-ass ASUS router. Am I really supposed to trust my network to that? Fucking bloat.

I'd like to think their business-oriented hardware would be better, but something tells me it's programmed by the same dudes.

If I mint some Hope NFTs and sell them, would I become hopelessly rich?

Social media be like: “omg this is great/awful/changes everything and I feel this is super important” without any mention of what they are referring to.

Me, googles latest news to guess what happened: “aw another US politics nonsense”

Found a bug of the "I have no idea how that could have possibly worked" kind:

class arena {
  std::vector<std::unique_ptr<intptr_t[]>&gt; allocs_;
public:
  intptr_t* allocate(size_t n) {
    allocs_.emplace_back(new intptr_t[n]);
    return allocs_.end()-&gt;get();
  }
};

</std::unique_ptr<intptr_t[]>

Notice that instead of returning the last element, the code returns the end() iterator which points to after the last element. To random memory. Oops?..

It's really annoying how many coding-oriented LLM say nothing about the licensing of the datasets they have been trained on. Every now and then I research if I can use fancy AI completion for my open source work and the answer is the same: yolo. The tooling is great - you can spin up a model in like 5 minutes plus download time. The legality of it continues to be ignored my just about everyone.

Pleeease give me a model registry and an option to filter on compatibility with the license of my project. Is that too much to ask?

You know what's the absolutely guaranteed way to make sure I never respond to your job opening email? Name your company "Powerpoint Engineering Ltd."

I had enough slides for a lifetime.
