I was thinking visually. But even sound-wise I don’t think most people would hear a cello and think that’s a violin (even if they don’t know it’s a cello). But I’ve listened to a lot of Apocalyptica and 2Cellos, and I also grew up on cartoons that feature tubas frequently for comedic effect, so maybe I’m just biased.

If you read the whole text and interpret the highlights as emphasis then it’s just annoying and hard to read (sort of like those people who add random commas everywhere). If you read just the highlighted text then it sounds like a summary, but there are mistakes in it, which is why I assumed AI.

I think it’s an AI summary (if you read just the highlighted part)

I think non-musicians can tell a cello from a violin and a tuba from a trumpet.

They said counting outlines made of other triangles too. So each triforce is 4 triangles. The whole is itself a triangle. Which makes it 3x + 2, for a total at third level of 44.

But why is a character from Alien: Romulus there? Did he get confused for Ford Prefect? But Ford would not speak against towels. So yeah, still confusing…

It baffles me that these types of jobs exist in the same area as mine. My company doesn’t care what hours I work as long as I get things done, has gone fully remote and never going back, encourages people to not burn themselves out and take time off, we have actual unlimited PTO (i.e. nobody coming after me for using too much), etc. I always thought that’s just the Silicon Valley mentality, but I keep seeing news of big tech companies doing all kinds of crazy backwards things and I don’t get it. All the perks I get are not because my company is run by angels, it’s because they understand we’re actually more productive that way.

He didn’t get arrested for AI generated music. He got arrested for faking multiple accounts to upload music and using bots to generate fake listens, thus stealing millions of dollars. If he did the same thing with music he actually wrote and played, he would still be arrested.

Don’t know about other clients, but vger shows a thumbnail of the video

For me it’s just convenience. It’s not because vim is better, but because it works on any terminal. I don’t depend on a particular IDE setup, I can jump on any computer and start working. And since I’ve been using it for so many years I’m very fast in it. The best tool is often the one you know best.

Not sure why you’d remember the ones you rarely need. I just memorized the things I use. Remembering stuff you use is much easier than learning a programming language. I’ve been programming for over 30 years and I’ve been using vim as my only “IDE” for the last 14 years. It would take me significantly less time to teach someone vim than to teach them programming.

And vim/emacs are rated just as difficult as a programming language

I was just visualizing it in my head, but now I realized I had put imaginary on x and real on y. My coordinate system was flipped.

Isn’t it clockwise?

So really no excuse when the vogons come

I just looked up the other day how to take care of the venus flytrap my son insisted we buy. It said it needs poor soil, do not fertilize it, and that they get their nutrients from their prey (and should be fed if kept indoors).

everything would be art so nothing would be art

A lot of artists share that thought

Anyone can take a photo, sure but making art via photography is incredibly complex.

I think that’s exactly the point. Anyone can use AI, but that doesn’t make then all artists. But there is a place for AI in art, like many other tools. Same as for other tools, jusy knowing how to use them doesn’t make you an artist. Just look at all the bad Photoshop stuff everywhere. Does that mean that using Photoshop makes you a talentless hack? Or just that a lot of hacks use it to pretend they’re artists? Same for AI.
