Technology@lemmy.world•Jensen Huang says relentless negativity around AI is hurting society and has "done a lot of damage"English
29·16 hours agoLet me rewrite that: Man who makes trillions manufacturing Ai hardware, says “people expressing how shitty Ai is and how it makes life harder” is going to cause me to lose money.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•The Vibe Coding Hero's Journey
4·1 day agoI think the largest failure is bad architecture, or that is the inability to understand architecture at all. After your vibe coded project gets larger than a prototype and you “zoom out” to try and grasp what is going on, is when you see how bad it is.

8·1 day agoCors was usually not part of any tutorials. To new people it was more of an afterthought, just set policy to get you page to work.

1·5 days agoI am super curious about how someone pushed a commit without testing or validation, and that person is a Principal.

5·6 days agoJr’s are so dangerous with Ai. We have to basically throw away a large part of a project because a Jr that now quit, made it with Ai and nobody can figure out how to extend or maintain it. I showed my boss how it had 5 layers of abstraction in multiple places and he agreed we needed to trash that code.

Technology@lemmy.world•Stack Overflow in freefall: 78 percent drop in number of questionsEnglish
141·6 days agoThe last time I asked a question, I followed the formatting of a recent popular question/post. Someone did not like that and decided to implement their formatting, thebvproceeded to dramatically change my posts and updates. Also people kept giving me solutions to problems I never included in my question. The whole thing was ridiculous.

Programming@programming.dev•Experienced software developers assumed AI would save them a chunk of time. But in one experiment, their tasks took 20% longer
2·7 days agoI forgot another key. The code snippets they give you are bloated and usually do unnecessary things. You are actually going to have to think to pull out the needed line(s) and clean it up. I never copy paste.

Linux@programming.dev•Chinese semiconductor outfit has Linux MPP repository on Github disabled after a DMCA takedown request & FFmpeg team accuses it of using libavcodec code without attribution
16·7 days agoI would at least Google something before you state an opinion.

31·7 days agoI like your strategy. I use a system prompt that forces it to ask a question if there are options or if it has to make assumptions. Controlling context is key. It will get lost if it has too much, so I start a new chat frequently. I also will do the same prompts on two models from different providers at the same time and cross reference the idiots to see if they are lying to me.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do people actually believe those "gurus" on the internet that supposedly "give advice"? These seems very sussy and feel scam-adjacent, isn't it?
3·7 days agoPeople are always looking to make a easy dollar but pretty much everything except having a job is too good to be true.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Gamers desert Intel in droves, as Steam share plummets from 81% to 55.6% in just five yearsEnglish
10·8 days agoI have to lower my 12th Gen cpu multiplier to stop constant crashing when playing UE games, because everything is overlooked at the factory so they could keep up with AMD performance. Fuck Intel.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do you think Google execs keep a secret un-enshittified version of their search engine and LLM?
1·12 days agoI noticed that Gemini 3, GPT-5.1+, and Claude 4.5 all hallucinate at a level that is equal to sifting through crap on Stack Ovetflow to find a solution that fits.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Where does the revenue gathered from taxes go and what is national debt?
2·14 days agoI do forsee the US not being able pay debt in 10+ years and nobody will lend them anymore money.

Games@lemmy.world•European lawmakers will study a ban on 'loot boxes' and addictive features in video gamesEnglish
3·14 days agoThere are still loot boxes in Belgium, they just work differently. You get to see what is inside before you start the transaction, allowing a person to only open the ones with contents they want.

Technology@lemmy.world•Librarians Are Tired of Being Accused of Hiding Secret Books That Were Made Up by AIEnglish
97·14 days agoI had to explain to three separate family members what it means for an Ai to hallucinate. The look of terror on their faces after is proof that people have no idea how “smart” a LLM chatbot is. They have been probably using one at work for a year thinking they are accurate.

Linux@programming.dev•The billion dollar race to replace Windows
3·18 days agoI believe retroid pocket 5 can run Linux but I don’t know what the current price is. The Ayn devices can also run Linux but thet are more expensive.
I use 2000-01-01 for most things.

Rust is a poor language for Game dev. Games and a borrow checker don’t work together. You will end up using unsafe mode most of the time. Making a game revolves around doing the hackiest shit and making something cool work. Every function has side effects and variables will need to be modified in multiple places in the same frame. Don’t get me wrong I like Rust but I need a language I can abuse, not the other way around, when I am making a game.
