you can't see how asking for a hint and formulating using your own brain is totally different than telling the AI to code the entire thing for you?


I've never vibe coded. You could ask AI a question in the same way you'd ask a friend (what if you don't have friends?) I guess my point is there is a difference between using AI and overusing AI.


if YOU make a claim, you need to provide proof. simple as. anything else is a logical fallacy or malicious argument :)


This whole conversation with measurablefunc has been like seeing somebody get asked for a dollar, loudly yelling “And get a job?!” and then spending an hour trying to convince everyone in the room that they’re Bruce Wayne. I love this website.

Edit: or like seeing somebody get asked for a cookie and then saying “And go to the store? And buy sugar? And eggs? And flour? And drive home and bake them?! Hell no!” and then saying “obviously that meant I have a ton of cookies in my house right now”


You are welcome to follow the relevant the links & reach your own conclusions.


no, actually that requires congressional approval, and the government is currently shut down, mostly as a way to defer the release of the Epstein files. nice try, though.


> mostly as a way to defer the release of the Epstein file

How many disappointments will it take for people to realize there isn't any more there there than what's already been found?

Or are the Epstein files are going to be what the minority party rambles about from now on instead of having a coherent message?


Should be quite simple to release them and move on then, that will be great.


But then they can't release them at a convenient time to distract from something much bigger. Which I'm afraid they will, eventually.


> there isn't any more there there than what's already been found?

I thought this until seeing Trump look completely guilty every time it comes up, and the GOP leadership mobilizing to stop the release of the files.


Democrats could have released yhem already. It would have been bipartisan. They didn't, because there's nothing there and it was better politics to let fringe Republicans obsess about it.


Democrats were bound by laws. Trump made his whole personality about breaking them.


translation is absolutely not “100% solved” because LLMs exist. such a take is underplaying so much cultural and emotional connection it’s laughable. contempible even. if you are an OSS dev and have no money, you can find another OSS dev to help you translate instead of using offensive AI slop.


How much "cultural and emotional connection" do you think it takes to translate a "back" button into all the languages that your users speak? Do you understand that translating software UI is not a creative endeavor, its a simple logistical problem that you solve by using the best tools at hand? Why would doing this be "contempible"? This isnt like translating Dostoevsky into english, and I certainly would prefer a human do that task instead of an LLM. Also, how would you be able to tell that the text fields youre reading in your software were written using "offensive AI slop"? Your ideological priors are obviously blinding you to see and understand the value of the tool at hand, and I recommend you try to engage with them in an open minded way. I have the same recommendation to you as the previous reply, if youre bilingual, look at how well LLMs write translations for any text you provide them. It speaks for itself.


# Translate this string table into <language>. I've included screenshots of the application in your context. When appropriate, search the web for translation guides / screenshots of similar applications and see what words they used for analogous UI elements.


Good idea, translating a whole table of related UI fields in one request would definitely give the LLM more context to work with and I assume would lead to better results.


it's actually wild; the first thing i thought after seeing the weekend results from recent events was how similar the veneration/usage of CK is to horst wessel. it's blatantly obvious, and quite worrisome for the trajectory of the us.


how can you say you only want cooperation when the viewpoints you and your brethren share are dehumanising, against a peaceful world, against caring for the environment, against minorities, against queer folk, and against international cooperation?

we arent talking about “how many immigrants should we allow”, we’re talking about “trans people shouldnt exist”, “christianity is the true religion”, “deport all legal immigrants”, “gay people shouldnt have human rights”


The person you’re responding to may not believe those things, and may not want those things or think it’s possible or reasonable. Let them speak about it at least before assuming that group affiliation means those things.

FWIW I believe dehumanization is a horrendous thing, especially when aimed at relatively powerless minorities.


The people currently in power do believe and act on those things. Claiming they aren't the bad guys (and especially voting for them) demonstrates tacit acceptance of those beliefs and policies whether you like it or not. You don't get to support people who do bad things and claim you don't agree with the bad things.


[flagged]


See, now thats at the heart of it isn't it!

What /would/ someone have to offer you, your family or your community? What do you value? What does your community value? How do you know folks have nothing to offer?


Selfish take

And before you downvote me, explain how the concept of charity maps to non-cooperation unless you yourself has something to gain


the man’s speech was against human rights for black people, women, lgbtq+. people are allowed to have free speech against those beliefs too. they are not “average”.


This mischaracterization was a view that many on the left have already disproven in the past few days (major black, gay, and women influencers who have changed their views on Kirk) when they looked into it, which is why a mass outflow from the left is being witnessed.

It’s not a surprise with the bubble people are living in though.


it's such an insane american belief that the answer to safety is not: reduce gun amounts, reduce what guns people can buy, improve mental health counseling, improve healthcare, improve quality of life through cheaper housing and well-paying jobs, but instead the copout which doesn't even work--adding armed police outside of every school.

uvalde called, it doesn't work. and the rest of the world looks on in shame at this exceptionally american and exceptionally cruel system.


To be fair, it wasn't just Uvalde.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/parkland-shooting-verdi...

We assume that the police will come to the rescue for all situations, but the fact is, they're human too.

This is typically different than the pro-gun mantra of "The best defense from a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun."

He was clearly a good guy. But he didn't want to die.


america is not a country founded on a religious heritage. and regardless of what you may think of the beginnings of the country, it very quickly became a country of immigrants. there is no religion that should be placed at the head of the country’s belief system.

what moral anchor do you think we need?


Classical liberalism


you know you can make your case better if you don’t use disrespectful and offensive language
