Illusion — Why do we keep believing that AI will solve the climate crisis (which it is facilitating), get rid of poverty (on which it is heavily relying), and unleash the full potential of human creativity (which it is undermining)?
Because we keep reading sensationalist advertisements presented as articles instead of experimenting with it ourselves, understanding what it is
And unfortunately, this article is also just a response to media clickbait, not a discussion point it tries to look like
~20 years ago:
"Reading documentation is for wimps! Real programmers read the source code directly"
LLMs are just a tool. And meanwhile our needs and expectations from the simplest pieces of code have risen
does it also include ‘high-level’ concepts like windows, input fields and so?
AFAIK MC uses ncurses for GUI. So I while I don't know if it has the concept of non-modal dialog, for example, for sure it has dialogs, fields, radios, boxes, etc
I think it will depend on what exactly is in the PDF. If these are text, you can in a pinch just copy and paste it but I'd expect libreoffice to be able to open it. If these are images, you'll have to use some OCR
wrote a library in BASIC for screen / window applications in DOS. (you know, pop-up text-windows and so on). How do I do that on linux (in C)?
(...)
I know there exist things like QT and ncurses
So it's graphical interface we are after or text based?
For text, I agree with others, ncurses
For graphical
Exactly same as with a hammer ;)
In general whatever anyone does to anything, current userbase will 90% of the time be against it. But
"Next, we'll remove all the action buttons with their superfluous interaction counts from the main timeline," Musk posted in a subscriber-only post on X in October of last year. "Just view count will show, unless you tap into a post."
So the main thing will be views. Not how many agree, how many object. Views
And probably it will also become the main analytic datapoint
Shit in, shit out
Firefox turns the fan on while Chrome doesn’t
Does it also happen when you change user-agent to chrome? Google has been worsening the experience of their services on non-Chrome browsers for a solid few years now
To me it looks like the judge wants something to be seen. Wealthy-and-connected privilege? Maybe even these documents show how deep into the known names this hole runs? Without the ambiguity of "the only documented thing is a dinner"
But I'm not an expert on the issue and judges in general, so maybe I'm misinterpreting something
Haven't tested it but it seems so. Android client has the button too
Actually no, it isn't personal
It comes from the very same thing you wrote in the second part of this post. No-one on Lemmy gets paid for their work. And communities have to be easy to set up, so "the committee" does not become a burned-out, too-powerful, bottleneck
But that means that it is also OUR (non-mod, just a lemming) responsibility to mark stuff that we feel is out of line, when we have the capacity to do so. If lemmy.world agrees this is out of line, simply blocking and muting does not help the wider community, only solves the problem for me. Anyone else coming in with fresh account will see this shit on the front, local posts page
And yes, the ones crossing the lines can easily come back. And I probably won't catch them next time because I'll be busy with my RL. That's fine
What I do have control over is whether I cover the eyes or not. When I don't have capacity to mark something, I cover them and move along. Other times, I flag them. In this situation I couldn't find a report button for a whole community so created a post
It's the same as a pile of trash on the pavement. If it's not a burden in their schedule, a regular member of public should call the city about it. And when they don't have time to do that, hopefully someone else will, that were busy the other day. How many of these someone-elses there are is not something we can control. But we can control if we are the someone else ATM
If we want to have corp-less commons, we have to be part of the team sometimes, when we have the capacity to do so
I had for this one, and now I'm moving on with my life :) ✌
That can become an issue but IMO the person in your example used the tool wrong. To use it to write the boilerplate for you, MVP, see how the libraries should be used sets one on the track. But that track should be used to start messing with it and understand why what goes where. LLM for code used as replacement is misuse. Used as time booster is good. Unless you completely don't want to learn it, just have something that works. But that assumption broke in your example the moment they decided to add something to it
I have a very "on hands" way of learning things. I had in the past situations when I read whole documentation for a library back to back but in the end I had to copy something that somehow works and keep breaking it and fixing it to understand how it works. The part between documentation to MVP wasn't easier because I've read the documentation
For such kinds of learning, having an LLM create something that works is a great speed up. In theory a tutorial might help in such cases. But it has to exist and very often I want something like this but... can mean that one is exploring direction that won't address their use-case
EDIT: A thought experiment. If I go to fiverr asking for a project, then for another one, and then start smashing them together the problem is not in what the freelancers did. It's in me not knowing what I'm doing. But if I can have a 100 line boilerplate file that only needs a little tinkering generated from a few sentences of text, that's a great speed up
