It’s currently a propaganda refinery.

Someone should build a whale MRI to check your hypothesis

Can probably only breath while sitting up.

The Ven diagram of pugs I’ve met whose owners tell me they got surgery to assist breathing is almost a circle

Depends on the verb and the application. If the string is valid 200, if it isn’t 400, 404.

The argument probably goes something like " if you adhere strictly to REST the error codes are all you need" and then metadata can be sent in response headers.

GitHub is code social media not hosting.

I only get these types of videos in shorts. In all the other stuff is like “we see you watched one video on this topic so here is 400 more”

Windows is falling off because they missed the mobile boat.

Most people never needed a full computer. All they do is consume and a phone and iPad is more than enough for that.

The desktop market is shrinking and the steam deck is pumping Linux numbers in an increasingly smaller pond.

Their livelihood doesn’t hinge on playing the game. That’s just incidental. They depend on interaction with the audience and stopping to read and understand something is dead air.

Most people don’t need them. The gaming and workstation laptop market is smaller than ever. The integrated graphics has been “good enough” for a while now.

Presumably a Wan modern could fit in one of those little USB port things.

One of the first things they will teach you in engineering design is to start by simplifying the model. So if you’re trying to figure out something like the surface area is a fish you assume it’s a cylinder then the math is easy. Same thing with assuming the object is in a vacuum. If you do that you ignore wind resistance and it makes the math easier. You can come back later and take the wind resistance into account.

Companies don’t have morals, if Trump disappeared tomorrow and was replaced with Bernie Sanders or whatever they would swap right back.

Yeah and the worst part is it doesn’t fucking work for the one thing it’s supposed to do.

The only thing it does is stop the stupidest low effort scrapers and forces the good ones to use a browser.

CloudFlare has become an Internet protection racket and I’m not happy about it.

Dual booting has always been a pain in the ass. Unless you’re a multiplayer gamer that needs kernel level Anti-Cheat it’s easier to just swap over and suffer the transition.

I’ve started asking people what they have created lately… They seem to take it as an insult when it isn’t meant to be.

The reality is consuming is easier than producing. You can see it with the usage of phones and tablets vs laptops. It’s hard to create on a touch screen but it’s easy to consume.

Already the cost is quite high. A prolific dev can easily burn 100usd a day in tokens and they have not even started to enshitify.

Some of the cost to run these models will come down a bit if Nvidia gets some actual competition which I’m sure will happen in the medium to long term because the hyper scalers definitely don’t like paying Nvidia’s AI ransom and the Chinese don’t want to be beholden to a company the US can influence.

We will see which happens first.

Gamers who care about this are a much smaller group than American regressive religious zealots.

It isn’t though. At the higher end the last ceo was making 7 million. That is roughly 12 enginees after compensation and everything else… It isn’t nothing but it’s less than 5 percent of the employees they laid off a year ago.

Increasing executive pay is a problem but it will barely move the needle.
