I am so tired of seeing these posts.

I am so tired of seeing my beloved field of study be the testing lab for a technology that is disrupting everyday life at such a high pace.

Mathematics were always about the beauty of seeing the ideas of a person unfolded in an extremely precise language so we can all look into a mathematician's mind and see their purest form of ideas, their understanding of a problem, their style, their way of communicating to other fellow researchers through mathematical results... this often transcends the common language humans use to communicate with each other and it is incredibly exciting to bump into shared ideas another person had thousands of kilometers away several years ago without even knowing them.

I am extremely unexcited about AI-breakthroughs in Mathematics in the same way I am extremely unexcited about a picture created by AI or an AI-generated video, not to speak about AI-generated text. Mathematics requires soul and intention. Mathematics need not be useful by definition, Mathematics are pure art that need hard work and effort to understand. The high you get when a year of work gets condensed in a one-page result is incomparable to anything else and, certainly, a machine is not apt to relate to humans in such a humane way.

I am not interested in the truth of the results. I am interested in how was the mind behind a result able to connect those dots. I am interested in the diversity human thoughts bring to Mathematics. I am not interested in a bunch of servers running probabilities to return a Theorem, even if true: that lacks the objective of Mathematics as I see them.

Hyperthread is the Intel branding from the Intel region of France.
Otherwise it's just sparking Simultanous Multi-Threading.

Software engineering has been dead at majority of the companies for a long time. Often it is just slop piled on top of other slop, no understanding of resource usage, no budgeting, code eating all of the RAM, 0 grasp of the performance characteristics of code, no clear specs (even though I myself often prefer less formal docs).

No institutional understanding of how the system works, you just get helicoptered in to a particular corner of the codebase, no idea on how anything works and what to do - just poop out your slop half-fix/feature, crap out a load of useless tests that test whether your methods don't crash if you pass in null, helicopter out.

DEAD.

UI innovation is usually zero sum. Cool effects rarely make an interface absolutely more useful: they just make you seem more trendy than the next guy. Remember parallax scrolling? I hate it when designers play status games with each other using my eyeballs as the playing field.

Even a 2x performance boost is only about on par with AMD's CPUs from two years ago...

"NVIDIA -$50 doesn't work AMD" Well apparently neither does NVIDIA -$300 🤷‍♂️

seems a bit extreme to nuke so many people but i'm not a world leader so be it

@ghost_motley Until it is open world like MHWilds or DD2 - then RE Engine quickly shits the bed.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA what a level of fail from a trillion dollar company

[vx-underground @vxunderground]

Just came up with a TRILLION dollar tech startup idea.

Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft Copilot

We put Copilot on Microsoft Copilot so Copilot can Copilot when you're using Microsoft Copilot to make Copilot easier to Copilot

Satya Nadella, call me bro let's get rich

Last month my intern asked for help with a Kubernetes error.

He was stuck on a YAML file.

He looked desperate.

I make $275,000 a year.

I haven't written a line of code since 2017.

I don't even know what a "pod" is.

But I didn't tell him that.

I leaned back in my Herman Miller chair.

I said, "Stop trying to code. Start prompting."

I told him to paste the error into ChatGPT.

He did.

The AI told him to delete the cluster.

He did.

Production went down instantly.

The CEO called me screaming.

I didn't panic.

I told the CEO we were "testing our disaster recovery protocols."

He was impressed by my foresight.

I got a bonus.

The intern got fired.

Innovation requires sacrifice.

Just not mine.

@BrentToderian Sir this data is a popularity contest across population of G7 countries. How can a grown-up person believe in this?

[Alexander Bobryshev @alexanderbob6]

@faustocoppi60 Apparently, had to climb 17% on the large gear because of the issue with FD. And looks like he was involved in some kind of crash that broke shifting in the first place? https://t.co/KXxMamlQbi

the worst part of AI hype is it poured more gasoline on python
