In the pre-AI days maybe, today 50TB is expensive due to increasing prices of all computer gear.

Do I need the ./s?

How else are the kids going to call a waymo to get away?

While I agree with this, and I’m not defending skirting regulations, before rideshare apps, taking taxis was an awful experience. At least half the time, if you try to pay with a credit card, the machine was “broken”, if you wanted to get a ride at a specific time you had to call ahead and hope that a taxi would show up.

Rideshsre apps forced regular taxis to up their game and provide better service, some did and now have their own apps.

I mostly agree. It won’t replace people directly, but it might let companies do more with fewer developers.

Not to say they don’t need anyone, but maybe they get by with 75 instead of 100 developers? Hard to say where that falls because the outcomes if ai usage are so variable based on skill of operator and the target codebase.

What’s the brand we should look out for?

While I agree with you, its that very misunderstanding that bosses and owners have, and they’ll fire regular folks and replace with ai. They may suffer lower quality and even catastrophic failures but it will take time for them to realise and rehire people. All those regular folks will be out of work during that time.

So that’s why every site started charging sales tax at the same time. Wonderful.

While true, most sites do not have the fame of the pirate bay and will not see anywhere near the same number of fans hosting remakes, even if the source is available.

Why is it the people that are ok listening to music out of a phone speaker are also the people ok polluting public spaces with music from phone speakers?

I have run across one that allowed arbitrary length when doing account creation and password reset but silently truncated the login input.

Took me hours to figure out that my password was longer than the documented length, try it and then have no problems.

Progressive web apps are your friend. They can install through edge having their own icon and task bar button, but they are just the same web just in a special tab with the aforementioned behaviour.

Are you using Claude web chat or Claude code? Because my experience with it is vastly different eve when using the same underlying model. Clause code isn’t perfect and gets stuff wrong, but it can run the project check the output and realize it’s mistake and fix it in many cases. It doesn’t fix logic flaws, but it can fix hallucinations of library methods that don’t exist.

System prompt and other tooling make some difference.

Some of these are extreme, but what you’re talking about is the https://512kb.club/, just keep it small, but no limits on what you can use.

What kind of range do you have on that? I’ve been debating installing a l2 charger because overnight charging is usually good enough. I tend to get about 15-20 miles range tops on pure electric.

The problem with human curated lists is that in order to block bots everything will require an account to access. That’s the real tragedy here.

That is my main beef with this particular hype train. People will be negatively effected by it, who had no choice in it. With the NFT hype a few years ago nobody was impacted unless they chose to dive into that area.

Given enough time, this hype will blow over

I tend to agree; however, during that time plenty of folks will be let go by middle management buying into the hype.

StackOverflow solved this specific issue pretty well IMO. Each downvote costs you a reputation/karma/fake-internet-point. Lemmy doesn’t count karma, so that’d a bit of a nonstarter, but for systems that do, that feels like a good way to discourage rampant use of downvotes.
