I noticed this on my web logs earlier. Couldn't believe how popular I was until I saw "AI" in the user agent string for 90% of the his.

Why would you give a machine money?

To be clear, you'd give the company that owns the machine money.

Just use the generation tools yourself and then you have the copyright.

Except that it sounds like no, you wouldn't by this court case, right?

it’s just worthless AI slop.

I agree. :)

I'm following 42 hashtags, a bunch of science, teaching, and programming stuff, mostly (I'm a CS instructor). But also things like #trains. :) And the state and city I live in.

I want to throw in a second good word for hashtags. I follow a tiny handful of people, almost entirely personal friends. But I follow a lot of hashtags. Because it typically is the content that I'm after as opposed to a particular person. If my favorite poster of weather information decides to post something about accounting, I don't really want to see that. Also following a hashtag gets you a lot more exposure to like-minded people than you would if you were trying to follow them all individually, and you see a lot more posts about things you enjoy.

You gonna delete the equal time rule, too? Didn't think so.

Tricky case. You can pay someone to make a custom work you hold the copyright on. But you can't pay for a machine to do it if you want the copyright.

I have zero evidence Musk ordered the Tesla vandalism. Which, coincidentally, is exactly how surprised I'd be to find out he had.

They're working hard to make sure piracy provides the best experience.

The article and paper seem to be aimed at the set of people who hate pronouns intersected with the set of people who believe in anthropogenic climate change.

How is chrome going to be funded if it's broken off?

[–] beejjorgensen@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 week ago

I, too, would pay. Probably $200/year. What I don't know is how much we need to keep up development.

Recall how Boris Johnson would mess up his hair before going to talk to the general public. I think it's impossible to tell if musk is an idiot or just plays one really effectively.

 

Neat article about avoiding a memcpy in a circular buffer.

 

I've never run a big system like this, but like the lead character in the story, I always figured exponential backoff would be enough. Turns out there's more.

 

This is a pretty cool analog arcade game. I never saw one when I was a kid... I'd have been hooked.

 

This is an ad for something CT-scan-related, but it contains a good breakdown of how an old car cigarette lighter works. And it has a couple interactive CT Scan explorers past the video.

 

Have you ever wondered what happens behind the scenes when you write a C program? How does your code transform from lines of text into a fully functional binary executable? If you’ve been curious about the intricacies of the C program compilation process, you’ve come to the right place.
