Okay, so the funniest thing that has happened at work in the realm of AI so far is this:
So this guy (that holds a certain position of power) wants people to use more AI, meaning people are expected to install a set of AI tools on their laptops. But, of course, he doesnât want to write proper documentation for this, because that would be silly monkey work, right? So he conjures up some AI prompts that are intended to make the AI agent install all this stuff by itself.
Do you see where this is going? Can you see the punchline?
Thatâs right! Since none of this AI stuff is deterministic, every setup is different. đ€Šââïž Like, 10, 20 systems, all set up a little different and people wonder why this or that doesnât work as expected.
(#yqmfsdq) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org ⊠at least this story was entertaining to read. đ If only Firefoxâs storage format wasnât so convoluted, you could have just shut it down and removed all the unwanted tabs. đ«€
I canât remember if the hex viewer back then had these options. Donât even recall what software that was. :-)
The one that I used during my Windows 95 days was âHex Workshopâ. It had similar features, just not as promimently displayed. It shows them down there in the statusline as âValueâ:
Newer versions can probably do more, havenât checked. đ (Assuming this program still exists.)
Apart from selecting text to copy into the clipboard. But that probably has the potential for trouble and interference with button clicks, etc.
Yeah, thatâs a big problem: Once you activate mouse mode in the terminal, the terminal loses the ability to select text. đ Youâd either have to emulate that in the program itself (like Vim does) or give the user an easy way to turn mouse support on/off during runtime.
How did the startup times develop?
Theyâre pretty stable at around 230 ms on my old NUC. Itâs just fast enough so that it doesnât annoy me.
(#odaa3mq) Iâm inclined to remove all mouse support, except for moving windows. đ€ I originally wanted this to emulate the behavior of DOS programs, but a) mouse support is a lot of code, b) using the mouse is cumbersome anyway and I would rarely do it.
(#xycahxq) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Sauna is awesome â if it wasnât for other people. đ€Ł A little mökki in Finland with a private sauna, that would be it.
(#f2s5vgq) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Found some numbers now, theyâre saying it was around 10cm in 3-4 hours. I donât know, felt like more. đ The forecast wasnât really good either, now that I think about it. They said thereâs going to be some snow, okay, fine, but then, boom.
Haha, that old ad is lovely. Those days are over. đ€Ł
(#cdqksfa) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I donât know a number (wait, why canât I google a Wetterbericht but only a Wettervorhersage?!), but it was enough for public transportation to shut down. đ I think I saw around five trucks on the side of the road who couldnât continue, too icy. Some cars stranded.
My car has an automatic gearbox and Iâm not sure if thatâs good or bad in such conditions. đ Pretty hard to accelerate without spinning wheels âŠ
(#avmdvrq) @prologic@twtxt.net (While browsing through that, I noticed that https://mu-lang.dev/ itself doesnât really mention the source code repo, does it? đ€ Like, the quickstart guide begins with âBuild the host: go build ./cmd/muâ, but whereâs the git clone ⊠command? đ )
Iâm not really sure what the goal is. đ€ Do you want to get pull requests for the docs? Or bug reports for mu itself? đ€
