What a special piece of shit he is.

So these guys saved millions of lives, but thanks to Republican political games, they will probably be getting death threats from the MAGA crowd.

Actually, in that scenario, it would be more important than ever, assuming Trump was taking office. Biden muddying the waters with inappropriate pardons would weaken any attempt by the courts to stop Trump from pardoning himself.

She and Bill Maher sure sounds like scabs to me.

I'm glad this is getting the attention it deserves right now, but this issue should have been front page news THE DAY Trump announced he was running.

"Donald Trump announces new bid for presidency, but may not qualify"

On none of their agendas: policy.

I see it's time to dust off these old Net Neutrality bumper stickers.

They were easy to spot because of their red hats.

In my experience, what makes gpt-4 great for coding is its astonishing knowledge of available software libraries, built-in interface features, etc.

I'll tell it the task I want done, and it will tell me where to find, and how to install the necessary dependencies.

With zero experience in browser extension design, gpt-4 helped me to build an incredibly complicated Chrome extension, using vector database; creating a custom, cloud-based server; web scraping with headless browsers, voice recognition, speech synthesis, wake-word capabilities, and a sophisticated user interface. I had ZERO experience with ANY of these.

For me, using gpt-4 was like collaborating with a just okay programmer, but one who had extensive experience with literally every programming language, API, protocol, etc.

And it was a collaboration. We would talk through problems together. I would make observations and guesses about why a block of code wasn't working, and it would tell me why I was wrong, or alternately tell me I was right, and produce a fixed version.

Yes, this is exactly what I came here to write.

The humor is all about decoding the language from the images alone, so the inflections and other verbal cues actually spoil every joke. There's no ah-ha moment, because the meaning of the words is telegraphed to us simultaneously with the cryptic language.

I don't understand how anyone can make an entire show about this without understanding the fundamental principle here.

Yeah, this Dev seems to be counting on the idea that everyone in lemmy will forget that there are perfectly good free apps out there, and that all the other 3rd party Reddit devs are working on their own lemmy versions.

I just googled them.

Yup. He had to go.
