> "If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention!"

Yea.. that outrage won't lead to any change. On the contrary, being in this state of distress eventually makes you unable to cope, breaking you down.

In a similar vein, text TV news has been repopularized in Sweden lately.

https://www.svt.se/text-tv/100

Questioning becomes meaningless if that's all you do.

Instead, be the change you want to see.

> And this would solve the problem of being server side only.

Server-side?

You should look into how you compile your rust into wasm

So, it's monkeys specifically good at typing Shakespeare.

> 1. There's this huge misconception that LLMs are literally just memorizing stuff and repeating patterns from their training data

So then, what are they doing?

I'm seeing people creating full apps with GPT-5-pro, but nothing is novel.

Just discussed the "impressiveness" of it creating a gameboy emulator from scratch.

(There's over 3500 gameboy emulators on github. I would be suprised if it failed to produce a solution with that much training data).

Where's the novel break-throughs?

As it stands today, I'm sure it can produce a new ssl implementation or whatever it has been trained on, but to what benefit???

The whole point of a build step here would be to _AVOID_ runtime rendering.

To me this just reads like not getting the point.

> Just try to implement, for example, a hexagon-based isometric game. There are no off-the-shelf implementations -- you'll need to redo the pan / zoom / click controls yourself, you'll need to implement the pathfinding, map layers, interface state machine etc etc etc

Sure there's off the shelf implementations.

Off the top of my head I would suggest starting with evaluating godot 4.

They have isometric view, pathfinding, and all of the rest you are mentioning.

> Have you considered that it is simply singers-performers who like to sing and would like to earn a bit of money from it, but don’t have many original songs if their own?

Or, maybe you start to pay attention?

They are selling their songs cheaper for TV, radio or ads.

> Even pretending they were, if you compare between artists specialising in covers and big tech trying to expropriate IP

They're literally working for spotify.

Indeed, the swedish school system is an ongoing disaster.

> Which is what is happening right now as humans hand content production to machines.

I believe what's happening now is only a demonstration of people's misaligned perception.

The LLM's were never good. You were just impressed in that virgin moment and now you see the flaws more clearly when using other models.

Many moons ago, the concept of chaos monkey [1] was concieved.

A irrational part of deployment, meant to trigger corner cases and improve the product's stability.

Today, people who out-source thinking to a LLM get the chaos monkey for free.

The only problem seems to be that the LLM proponents are ahistoricists.

There's an whole genre of musicians focusing only on creating royalty free covers of popular songs so the music can be used in suggestive ways while avoiding royalties.

It's not art. It's parasitism of art.

Because standard.

There was also small .com utils circulating that would change to a tiny font so you could have 40, 50 rows of text with tiny fonts, or maybe even more.

> Does it fix the issue with the multiple buffers and minor annoyances?

The stuff you mentioned so far is all about you not configuring your setup:

- buffers: You configure your clipboard manager to use a single buffer.

- vim: configure to use global clipboard if that's your preference

- X11: dont use legacy software

> No. It just adds a different friction point.

You think using software that implements functionality you deem missing "adds friction", and yet you still want said missing functionality and complain about it is missing.

That's wild.

> the only place i see any interest in rust is HN or linux kernel

Then pay attention.

Rust has been in Windows 11 since 2023:

https://windowsreport.com/windows-11-kernel-rust/

That's the paywalled SYNOPSIS.

The article is behind paywall, see parent's link.

> I'm sure if there was a way to track how many time you make and undo mistakes in copy-pasting the wrong thing from the wrong buffer, your assumptions would be seriously challenged.

> Oh, and the fact that selection buffer gets overwritten if you switch between apps with active selections.

What can I tell you...

Use a clipboard manager.

The end.

antirez should retire, his recent nonsense AI take is shadowing his merits as a competent programmer.

A ordinary user would use the clipboard manager installed on their desktop and no part of your description would fit:

* Copied text goes to the clipboard manager as it is selected

* Clipboard manager populates the clipboard buffers as you configured it. For example send copied text to multiple buffers to simulate non-linux behavior.

* User can query clipboard manager for the history whenever

* User can paste anything from clipboard manager. Yes, even if the original app has closed.

> That counts against you because now you have even fewer keys to work with to add copy/paste, shouldn't that extra physical key be instead used for those extra useful letters?

Those are not extra physical keys. Some buttons on the left of ENTER has the Å Ä Ö, that's all.

I'm currently on a Swedish TKL keyboard.

See https://typingdonewell.com/blog/what-is-a-nordic-layout-the-...

It's not "weird buffers".

It's a feature you're not accustomed to.

> Which I would've really expected more Linux users would value more than they seem to.

We use copy on select... what's all of this keyboard shenanigans /s

Heck that's so exciting! Lets delve even deeper!

While whisper and whisperx is python implementations, the whisper.cpp wins the benchmarks.

So, yes, and also no.

> Why has it taken so long to get the Windows ecosystem fully on ARM?

Windows has been through several ARM phases.

The first one being Windows CE 2.0 in 1997. Win CE was used in the Dreamcast and the Gizmondo handheld.

Lately confusion arose when people started calling arm64/AArch64 for just "arm".

This is mostly a historic thing.

Kids and adults alike today in Scandinavia eat candy whenever they like it.

Popular stuff today include

- extra large energy drinks (65 cl)

- candy tasting vapes and snus

> I'm just wondering what the morale is with AI doing 30-50% of your work?

I don't know any developers who use AI to that large extent.

Myself am mostly waiting for the hype to die out so we can have a sober conversation about the future.
