This was a enjoyable read. Talking about internet dipshits can quickly turn boring, but you frequently took a moment to analyse his place within the wider sphere of productivity-obsessed people. Your selection of quotes from others is quite nice too.

To have a tool that can take away the fear of the empty page at the click of a button?

"fear of the empty page" is a bit oddly named. It's not that the page is empty that makes you unable to write, it's that you don't have any more open ends within your text to expand upon. And that can happen when you're on 0 words but it can also happen when you're halfway through, it's easier to start writing again in that case though. Having an AI vomit 1000 words at you definitely doesn't help, first you have to go through the chore of reading AI, then you realize that the style of the generator doesn't permit you to have any further thoughts about the topic.

@BlueMonday1984 in his sidenotes can underestimate how promptfondlery the general population is. You can walk past people talking about the singularity in earnest, but when AI misinformation goes out into the real world, there will be a much bigger wave of backlash against tech companies than has been seen until the peak of the bubble, which we are now past. I predict that the coming election will turn more people against AI as the tactics that are being utilized to interfere get revealed.

And this puts the bit from the other video with the referral links into context. It's not a joke, he actually expects to be making money off of people :(. I found the vagueness in the ad jarring too. There's this thing called sponsorblock, a database of timestamps for videos that skips useless stuff. The downside is you don't find out if the guy that you're watching is a shill.

Australian post-industrial is my favorite genre atm thanks to David, and I have a recommendation: https://moose-mouse.bandcamp.com/album/oxide an Australian kid that plays drums in restaurants around Melbourne and has produced delightful solo electronic albums.

I have something that I want to post to MoreWrite and this is very convenient for my story

it just lets fucking curl through no questions asked

Fucking what. I've heard of sites blocking curl and I've been able to get around it by copying user agent and sometimes cookies from the browser. Now I'm cursed with the knowledge that I could probably just scrape stuff from everywhere

Godot is really fun to use and to develop in. They basically gamified documentation writing: they show you tooltips for your custom elements just like the classes provided by the engine with their excellent documentation. The engine has hot code reloading too. I have a puzzle game project that I'm working on now.

The family home was a cluttered mess. Piles of unwashed dishes covered the kitchen countertops, along with empty pizza boxes and scattered food crumbs. The living room was a maze of toys, clothes, and scattered papers, with a thick layer of dust coating the furniture. [...]

Lol at this unimaginably boring fragment of a fiction story inside of a child protection report

The Report did not find that any staff had used GenAI to generate content for sensitive work matters

Whut. Why would you lie like this?

This stuff feels like a DJ is cross-fading between the different hype cycles.

A lemmy-specific coiner today: https://awful.systems/post/2417754

The dilema of charging the users and a solution by integrating blockchain to fediverse

First, there will be a blockchain. There will be these cryptocurrencies:

This guy is speaking like he is in Genesis 1

I guess it would be better that only the instances can own instance-specific coins.

You guess alright? You mean that you have no idea what you're saying.

if a user on lemmy.ee want to post on lemmy.world, then lemmy.ee have to pay 10 lemmy.world coin to lemmy.world

What will this solve? If 2 people respond to each other's comments, the instance with the most valuable coin will win. What does that have to do with who caused the interaction?

No worries, I saw in another comment of yours that you're autistic, and yeah that can mean you say some stuff that can be interpreted as bad faith. I'm @tbi1233:chat.blahaj.zone on matrix

To be frank, I judged you pretty negatively. I'm happy that you learned better. People can go to some really bad places online to satisfy some sort of desire. Personally, I used to go on places like 4chan, parler, gab, in order to laugh at right-wingers, but the effect on mental health can't have been good. Maybe we can keep in touch? Idk, I have some trouble socializing.

 

God I love the music jerma fans make Check out "the thing in the fridge" from this album, casinovocain, Gloria by Patricia Taxxon. Emma Essex sampled jermacraft once.

 
 

Wikifunctions is a new site that has been added to the list of sites operated by WMF. I definitely see uses for it in automating updates on Wikipedia and bots (and also for programmers to reference), but their goal is to translate Wikipedia articles to more languages by writing them in code that has a lot of linguistic information. I have mixed feelings about this, as I don't like existing programs that automatically generate articles (see the Cebuano and Dutch Wikipedias), and I worry that the system will be too complicated for average people.
