Another "AI" coding assistant review from the actual field "But for anything more nontrivial, I found it took me more time to validate the code and fix the numerous big and subtle errors than it saved me."

This absolutely reflected my experience and is why I turned off Copilot. The time it saved in typing obvious things was not offset by the time I wasted debugging subtle and hard-to-spot bugs that it introduced.

The most depressing thing was that it wasn't even good at things I'd expect a token predictor to be good at. Our coding conventions specify parameter orders that are consistent across subsystems. I expected that something parsing our code would be able to learn this and give subtle hints to enforce it (autocomplete functions and calls with the parameters in the right order). Instead, the autocompletions would randomly swap parameters at call sites and were completely inconsistent in naming things and parameter order for generated functions.

The one thing that it was useful for was identifying missing abstractions. If Copilot could fill in an entire function body, the APIs it was calling were missing an abstraction.

Answer Engine.

An AI surveillance oracle that confidently serves up the official answer™ — even when it's dead wrong or flattens nuance beneath its weight.

For when you want groupthink, but faster. No need to think, doubt, or dig.

"I asked the answer engine for alternatives—it gave me the most popular opinion and told me diversity is inefficient."

Today's version of #AI is not good enough to use without doubting the result.
We should not forget that all #LLM were trained with stolen #data. It is simply illegal, but it is accepted by governments and their societies. Harming many independent artists for the profit of Big #Tech. Fuck them.

Just so I don't fool you, and just so I'm speaking for the record, my plan to implement the ability to convert YouTube links to embedding in Vue.js was then abandoned.

However, I realized that I could achieve the same functionality with Misskey's summary proxy; Iceshrimp originally had the ability to convert YouTube URLs to embedded videos with the summary proxy.

It's worth remembering that Frederick Douglass saw photography as a method of combating white supremacy -- specifically, the cruel racist caricatures from white painters: "Negroes can never have impartial portraits at the hands of white artists."

1. Europe proposes a ceasefire.

2. Putin deflects and says we should meet to negotiate in Istanbul on Thursday (planning to send Lavrov).

3. Zelenskyy responds, I will meet Putin in Istanbul Thursday. Personally.

There is a 0.0 percent chance that Putin, who is a war criminal wanted by the ICC, shows up in Istanbul, and when he doesn’t, Ukraine and Europe will say, Putin is not serious about wanting peace.

(Turkey is not party to the Rome statute but has close diplomatic ties with the ICC)

Interesting article
Didn't knew that about Putin and ICC.

Zelenskyy should bring along his own food and drink and not standing too close to balustrades in hotel rooms.
