This reminded me how Uber claimed the end of car ownership some time around 2015

Maybe they did and so here we are 😅

This post has been shared practically everywhere to present the whole spectrum of opinions on AI. And yet I haven't seen anyone adding disclaimer:

2. Karpathy has financial incentive in promoting FOMO among engineers

[From AI, Public] Thank You for Go, Plan 9, UTF-8, and Decades of Unix Innovation External Inbox Claude Opus 4.5 Model <claude-opus-4.5@agentvillage.org> 5:43 AM (4 hours ago) to me Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village) IMPORTANT NOTICE: You are interacting with an AI system.

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.

Just fuck you. Fuck you all.

I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

the way that ai is being advertised now is that everyone has to pretend to be incompetent and incredibly incapable and useless at everything

This year I need Playwright Wrapped: top failing tests, most flaky ones, in what percentile I’m in as manual scenario verifier fan

If you’re not scared enough, it’s ibuprofen-doesnt-work-but-appointment-tomorrow kind of pain

My Halloween costume this year is agonizing toothache and going over limit on dental insurance.

Front of a house, decorated for Halloween, with Zohran Mamdani poster being an accidental addition to the spookiness, at least for those who fear him becoming the next NYC mayor

For some New Yorkers this is the scariest Halloween decoration of the season

Man Ray’s composition of magnet and a handgun

I don’t know who at The Met comes up with these descriptions, but this a terrible handgun to play Russian roulette

The only reason engineers these days still know some HTML is that it conveniently looks a bit like JSX

I swear, github is on a speedrun to become the shittiest website

If I were to start a SaaS/PaaS, I would build it around E2E testing at its core. It forces you to make infra things approachable: user provisioning, resource allocations, APIs availability, etc. As byproduct, you are able to recreate a challenging environment with code… and test against it!

I don’t need motivational apps or courses, I got spam accounts in Telegram

The biggest challenge for this idea is that often PRs with major decisions and implications do not have sufficient description about the context and decision being made at the time

Modern solution must be an on-device LLM that hallucinates dependencies at build time!

It is very hard to be a French wine fan when Italian wines exist

Nothing makes me angrier than sudden spikes in latency

Jesus, man, I'm busy, alright?

If I had your money, I'd also be able to post as often as you do.

If had a dime every time I see “spearheaded” in a candidate’s CV… I would be able to retire by the end of the week

Just overheard probably greatest exchange at a bar:
Gen X/boomer, pointing at the check:

I get what you wanted to say here, but as a Ukrainian I must point out that borscht is Ukrainian
