Immunity after contraction… what? Vaccines are designed to reduce symptoms and have never been a guarantee of immunity. They can reduce transmission in the populace too and make it survivable for at-risk people. You’ve been huffing some bad media friend.

qmmmur··on How to keep enjoying programming in a world of LLMs
Sounds dreamy. Let's plug in and "write" code without interacting with anyone ever. That way you can further abstract yourself from all meaningful connections to become more efficient. Seriously cannot get inside the head of people like you.

qmmmur··on The darker side of being a doctor
Nah you just need to unfuck your insurance system. It’s fine in other places without watering down the quality of medical professionals.

qmmmur··on Why I didn’t sign the Fields medallists’ letter
Yes and then I read around it.
qmmmur··on Why I didn’t sign the Fields medallists’ letter
Did you even read the open letter? Mathematicians are annoyed because the proof is only meaningful if people understand it and came to it. I mean I’m basically just summarising it now but it’s annoying you didn’t read it or can’t comprehend its nuance.
qmmmur··on Mistral X Mozilla: Private, Multilingual AI Browsing
I cannot in a million years imagine using these features. Just be more organised.
qmmmur··on Registration without a phone number on Signal will use zero-knowledge proofs
Have a look in the settings lol
qmmmur··on Coding Is Over. Get over It
Do you work in a well-trodden set of problem spaces? There is still so much room for humans to be writing code. Especially in anything moderately creative.
qmmmur··on The same nine streaming subscriptions cost $702/year more than in 2021
Stop…stop…he’s already dead
qmmmur··on PISA 2025 Students' reading and mathematics performance declined across the OECD
As far as I can see most left wing political platforms at least have a plan to fund education unlike right wing parties which constantly seek austerity measures and general defunding of humanities and education.
qmmmur··on ChatGPT Images 2.5
I can’t imagine “remixing” treasured childhood memories that had a context so you can see a totally implausible and fictitious event. Am I the stupid one for not getting it?
qmmmur··on ChatGPT Images 2.5

qmmmur··on How the Disaster of "Forever Chemicals" Was Kept Secret
What is the point of your comment? Are you trying to forgive these institutions on everyone’s behalf for irresponsible dumping?
qmmmur··on 1Password Replied to My Disappointment
Hacker news has to be some of the worst community when it comes to apologising on behalf of people who have said the shittiest things. If these people said what they said about you, your family or your race, you would have a problem, but he didn't so you don't. Sad.
qmmmur··on 1Password Replied to My Disappointment
He is a big Tommy Robinson supporter. I care that my money funds people who support bigots, and I'll vote with it, regardless of your ability to comprehend that there are people with differing opinions.
qmmmur··on The shrinking landscape of linguistic diversity in the age of LLMs
I am pretty anti-AI, but for once I am reading someone's complete and balanced take on things. Despite it's usefulness on the surface, I do think the lost of human personalities is tragic. Efficiency aside, it's the only thing that makes anything worthwhile.

Sorry your device owes nothing to academia? Are you referring to a computer? If that’s the case are you mad?
qmmmur··on No AI Fridays

qmmmur··on Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash
Right, but in your apathy there is a well organised group of capitalists who are vying to instrumentalise your existence. A union is just levelling the playing field.
qmmmur··on France reaches 94.9% fiber coverage in 2026
Collusion between Virgin and other companies and the developers. Just plain old corruption and ineptitude. Our 2019 new build apartment had coax too, which resulted in some really crap internet that was expensive.
