hurtigioll··on After AI Takes Everything
I guess the code you write always works correctly whem you submit the PR, and code reviews don't find real problems in it. it makes sense then to have the exact same bar when using LLMs

OpenAI/Anthropic are in the business of "replacing workers with AIs", not in the business of "selling AIs to workers"

nvidia even has an official api for a game to identify itself so they dont need to look at executable name

hurtigioll··on The time the x86 emulator team found code so bad they fixed it during emulation
gpu drivers detect games, among other thing by looking at executable names

then driver "optimizes" behavior, sometimes dishonestly (reducing precision), sometimes honestly (working around game engine stupidity)

we do not trade with animals, for they have nothing to offer.

Taleb joke:

junior trader for a bank looses $10 mil. boss asks him what happened. trader says he sold oil because bank economist said oil price will go down. boss fires him. junior asks how could he become a good trader if he's fired on the first losing trade. boss says "no, you idiot, I didn't fire you because you made a losing trade, I fired you because you listened to our economist"

hurtigioll··on AI is code – and can't be prompted into being smarter
this clever hack is pretty surely illegal, it falls somewhere under unauthorized use of a computer system

intent is the hardest to prove in the court of law, and you solved that for them by making it clear you intend to do damage

hurtigioll··on Extinction-Level Capitalism
anarchy is also capitalistic in nature
hurtigioll··on A 'cold blob' in the Atlantic could be a sign of AMOC shutdown
is fascinating that a software developer can have such a lack of awareness of the relative size of things
hurtigioll··on Extinction-Level Capitalism
pure Capitalism is law of the jungle

as we will soon find out, when AI will become better at Capitalism than us

hurtigioll··on ReactOS (FOSS "Windows") achieves 3D-accelerated Half-Life on real hardware
Windows stopped having serious malware problems at least 10 years ago

the ransomware campaigns would have happened on any OS enterprises use, because they were not security flaws in the OS

hurtigioll··on ReactOS (FOSS "Windows") achieves 3D-accelerated Half-Life on real hardware
its worse than that, Windows activates/deactivates "bugs" based on the compatibility profile of the app.
