Sony can afford to discount on the promise of online sales and planned cost reduction. I’m not sure Microsoft are going to manage another Xbox.

I mean usually the instructor just gets out the plane while on the ground and tells you to go round again. I’m not sure what was going on with this one but they at least seemed to think their student was ready given the words “you know what to do”.

I suspect it’s profitable in the abstract - and their accountants would be bad at their jobs if they couldn’t work out what utilisation rate you need to pay for the server runtime.

However how aggressively you amortise the cost of the training is the key, especially if you keep releasing new models every 6 months.

Invariably it’s having to scroll that’s the issue and you don’t want to be cross contaminating via your shiny black mirror.

Following recipes. These days I print them out because it’s a pain constantly washing your hands to check the next step on the phone. But I’m not buying smart glasses just that. My normal glasses are expensive enough already.

Is this a sign of Lemmy’s popularity that we are now getting thirst spam?

Lol - predictive text got me. Fixed now.

I suspect they have sorted by the name and displayed a localised version which uses the truncated full version: The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

ETA fixed typo

I was bracing for AI slop but was pleasantly surprised to find it is good old fashioned editing.

Because running servers costs money. The project I work on gets donations towards it’s CI costs and it’s not insignificant.

“Just going to pop outside to smoke a removed” would not raise eyebrows in the UK.

I don’t know but i suspect there will be wording in the terms of service against using GitHub to host services.

I personally have email integrated into my editor (mu4e) so I can apply patches and search code directly from the email thread. It handles threads and searching really well.

Issue triage, code exploration, extracting information from disparate sources, first pass code review. There are loads of use cases that it’s potentially useful.

For me it’s a lot better at extracting the requirements for a CPU feature from a 10,000 page architecture reference manual than I am.

I have API access at work because I don’t want to be tied to a UI. I’m very aware of the cost because I’m trying to see where it offers good value for money.

Of course things like the deep research and notebooklm are covered by the Google workplace fees which while including more than the personal plans are also a fair bit more expensive.

Your making a big assumption extrapolating from one particular study involving Java code and a static analyser.

How is that patch sloppy?

I feel the term slop is being overused to cover anything an LLM has touched. If I ask an agent to re-read a mail thread for me and apply the changes to my tree to review is that slop? Would you feel better about it if I copy and paste from email to code in my editor?

I’ve just been doing a bunch of bug triage which was mostly driven by the agent although I checked the issues where it had commented. Was that slop? Ironically a lot of the issues where AI generated although for the most part more complete than a lot of the purely human submissions we get. Are those bug reports slop? What about the poorly drafted human ones?

That’s not kernel policy but LF guidance. From the kernel’s point of view patches still have a high bar to pass to get merged and I don’t think we have enough data yet to see if LLM based submissions to the kernel have a higher or lower error rate than humans.

I certainly feel the uptick in LLM reports though - one of the projects I’m working on is seeing a deluge of them at the moment.

What’s wrong with backports and at a push snap/flatpak/appimg for apps? One of the main reasons I’m on Debian stable is I don’t want the underlying plumbing of my system changing radically.

Where you live maybe. The NHS is centrally funded through taxation.
