not if i can avoid it

enterprise dildomancy

figure 1: the loved one whacks a keyboard with a dildo, thus reproducing Tumblr

“coded by dildo” coined in this post and I have a whole tag here going back nearly 10 years

previously known as “coding by whacking the keyboard with dildos”

i’ve changed my mind, cursor is now the best ai coding tool

(just writing this up as today’s Pivot)

wikipedia articles: hey this is pretty good!
wikipedia talk pages: what is wrong with you people

it’s not actually any more painful than any wikipedia talk page, it’s surprisingly okay for the genre really

remember: wikipedia rules exist to keep people like this from each others’ throats, no other reason

I’ve just realised:

this reads just like a neoreactionary trying to be literary

e.g. the Dimes Square literary astroturf crowd

same problem as gen AI output: too much style, zero understanding of basic structure, you cannot get that fine detailed in structure and be that bad at the basics.

you realise i’m gonna ask for links to your example of this being misapplied here

it’s gonna be a massive disaster across the wider economy, and - and this is key - absolutely everyone saw this coming a year ago if not two

Labour are all about the billionaire donors these days.

and a terrible pub

my lethal weapon is my WP:WTF

the post history is very infosec dot pub

Wikipedia rules make more sense when you understand they are entirely to keep the most pedantic nerds on earth from fighting

This is specifically about the current shitty “AI Overview” that is currently and specifically pissing people off and Google essaying that as the only interface to search. (Sure they might not, but OTOH predicting future behaviour from past behaviour.)

That they did fucking terrible overviews in the past is not some sort of excuse for the current and specific issue with the current and specific AI Overviews.

wtf with calling hating this extremely hateworthy shit “uncanny-valley reactionism”

acronym-spouting rules lawyers who will crush dissent by a thousand duck nibbles

hey now, my duck nibbling is thoroughly weaponised

i applied the relevant tags and rewrote the intro, may go through the rest later

video version, double episode!!

this video had so many technical hiccups. the front fell off. (literally, my teleprompter tablet’s screen came unglued and fell off. what the.) openshot decided rendering was toooo haaaard and i had to make a copy of the source video with a keyframe every 10 frames. fucking computers.
