So what do you call this level of hatred? This fanatical desire to annihilate an entire civilisation?

Dammit, now even my favorite terminal emulator app (iTerm2) is adding AI/LLM nonsense features. STOP IT, IT'S JUST A TERMINAL APP

One of the reasons I don’t believe in fears of catastrophic mass unemployment due to AI is that it ever seemed likely, governments would just ban it.

We live in a world where Biden effectively banned Chinese EVs to protect Ford/GM/Tesla jobs. No government would let AI do worse.

What else is going on at Tesla during its fifth consecutive week of layoffs? Oh. 😬

Oh look.

Justice #Alito says his wife Martha-Ann Alito had an altercation with neighbors about a "'Fuck Trump' sign that was within 50 feet of where children await the school bus in Jan 21."

Except... FCPS and ACPS were all remote in January of 2021. No children were waiting for buses

So, despite what rational sense as well as several dictates would seem to demand, we are attempting to use the "Cmake Projects in Visual Studio" feature of MSVS https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/build/cmake-projects-in-visual-studio?view=msvc-170

We have… questions, which the docs don't seem to answer.

1. Many places in the VS docs refer to "the project" as if it were a singular file ( see screenshot of https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/build/reference/common-macros-for-build-commands-and-properties?view=msvc-170 ). In the case of a CMake Target Project, what is "the project" in this sense? The CMakeLists.txt? The The CMakeSettings.json?

I would very frankly recommend anyone who takes a job at Google view it in an extremely mercenary way. Goods and services are being exchanged for money and that’s all that should be exchanged. They’re renting your time and expertise, not your enthusiasm, loyalty, or soul. https://flipboard.social/@TechDesk/112429837720509673

Future AI will be outfitted with an incredible amount of detailed information about its users. In fact, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says it will be like having a “super competent colleague” that knows absolutely everything about your whole life, every email, every conversation you’ve ever had. Would you sign on for this? Read more at Futurism. https://flip.it/bqE_L2

This is such a weird headline. Are Google employees supposed to be weeping and wailing because the DOJ might force Apple to ask users to choose a search engine versus defaulting to Google?

This doesn’t even generate work for them like GDPR or the DMA did.
