"I expect our direction for the next release will be to tweak the reviews a little bit more, but start shifting focus to letting the LLMs take care of the busy work - managing patchwork, automating common process complaints, editing commit messages, and maybe applying patches which already got "reviewed-by" tags from people we trust..."

Chat, we're so fucking cooked.

> We are completely overwhelmed, of course. The glimmer of hope is that we secured sufficient LLM budget and access (thank you Meta!) to run reviews with multiple frontier models on each patch. This eliminates some hallucinations.

“Cohen delivered one of the most deferential, fawning, oleaginous, sycophantic interviews in modern broadcasting history.

He rolled out the metaphorical red carpet for Trump.

He made appreciative noises in all the right places. He allowed his lies to go unchallenged.

Cohen is hardly the first #Trump hater to lose their nerve.
The man who served prison time for his role in what he said was covering up Trump’s “dirty deeds” has submitted an application for a pardon.

I have been tipped exactly 7 two-dollar bills since I started busking in force some three months ago or so.

Is there something going on I should know about?

Are these people wishing me good luck,

And by spending them, if only to bring joy to another,

Is this all just about a chain of luck based on odd currency denominations?

#busking #chance #currency #weirdstuff

PS -- a fellow busker I know said he NEVER gets ANY two-dollar bills, though, due to his doing covers, he sometimes outdoes me.

AI is just a tool, like a calculator

if calculators were rented, unreliable, dependent on endless data centers, monopolizing the market for electronic components, responsible for mass copyright violation, and shredding rare books.

Remember that time you left your calculator unattended, and it hacked into someone else's calculator?

Yesterday was my last day at MacStories. I loved getting to write and edit for a website that meant so much to me, and saying goodbye isn’t easy, but I’d like to focus on gratitude.
