mornin' i can't believe i slept like 15 hours.

Good morning! Just in time for coffee and unpaid work!

Yea but happy to see a lot of new posts! That's the reward.

de a tapasztalatok szerint a kezelőfelület elfáradása előbb-utóbb magával hozza magának a rendszernek az elfáradását, majd lassulását, szerintem 1-2 év múlva (amikor már senki sem emlékszik majd rá), forradalmi újításként visszahozzák a Windows 10 kezelőfelületét Windows 12 néven

but according to experience, the fatigue of the user interface will sooner or later lead to the fatigue and then the slowdown of the system itself. I think in 1-2 years (when no one will remember it anymore), they will bring back the Windows 10 user interface as a revolutionary innovation under the name Windows 12.

everybody come to we're having a party!

can't believe It don't let me jump up and down

you press 'b' ! it stands for 'bounce' :)

Woow this is really cool!!

Thats so awesome! Getting RC3 vibes

How do you define slop in relation to ? For me, it is how quickly you get to an unmaintainable state- the acceleration into something that becomes difficult to work. I talk more about it here: hellodavid.dev/blog/slop

Not that I think we're close to a canonical definition (as if we'll ever all agree on one) but my team has defacto adopted the definition of code that the developer responsible for it doesn't understand, approve of and essentially has now honestly reviewed. Basically anything which leads to cognitive debt.

I agree, I don't think that there will ever be one canonical definition, but I like this definition as well, as it places the onus on the actual person creating the slop. Thank you for sharing!

I HEARD A GREAT HORNED OWL. one of my birding goals is to see any owl outside a zoo. I just moved here and the lack of birds near our home has made me sad. but hearing this owl was such a fun surprise tonight.

That’s awesome. There’s an owl (don’t know type) that hangs out at the playground in our neighborhood at night. First time I saw it, I stood frozen in place, amazed that it would be out in the open. Then as I walked away, I kept looking behind me, realizing I’d never hear it coming if it decided to engage 🦉

Merlin Bird ID is magical. Put it in your pocket for the next encounter. If anything, you'll have your phone out ready to throw like a stone in the event you have to roll a die to evade and attack.

Thanks for the tip! you'll have your phone out ready to throw like a stone😂

what an odd summer it must be for mathematicians.

Interesting. Why?

It seems this year is when big budget LLM players overtake independent academic mathematicians, in speed at least. The Jacobian conjecture, a lot of Erdos problems, now even the Navier Stokes millenium problem. Solved due to new model releases, all within this summer.

model releases or internal research by the big AI labs*

So, can we now say that LLMs are able to do things that nobody has done before? Can they extrapolate?

…

in math it can definitely prove statements that havent been proven before. I dont think thats the big thing though since it also writes sentences nobody has ever written before and in software it can write programs that havent been written before. Its just that the speed and scalability that has overtaken human mathematicians and programmers

I was about to prepare a rewrite cause a personal program was failing but realized I had an incomplete change and was incorrectly identifying an error from valid data. Actually so weird to pick up a project after weeks of not touching it

hello world!

Hello 👋

Hello world?

Been working on an old mastodon hosting project I tried to start a few years ago, with a focus on privacy. This is the first big project I've tried to come back to with the help of coding agents and find it invigorating, and gives me the confidence to actually finish the project. Who knows if it will ever make a dollar, but it sure is fun to watch my ideas come to life.

I’m getting my canon rebel t6 tomorrow yay!!

I still don't get how now after AI coding there's people saying that contrary to common belief code wasn't a bottleneck and I realized that when I was starting to code at 10yrs ago when I was 15 and read it in a stackoverflow comment. I thought that was the common belief and still can't believe a lot of supposed senior programmers apparently believed so.

Yes, code was never the bottleneck and of course now it never will be either. Figuring out semantic modeling of data that makes sense across business domains and figuring out the right way to use digitalization to modernize processes, and the change cultures as become possible through such work - that’s much more bottlenecks! Code is easy; people and process is hard!

Have a wonderful day.
