Devs! Drop your so we can follow each other! Love to see the projects you’re working on. Mine: —
Any conversation

Gave up on github after the acquisition. Very glad I did, given the unsurprising decline since then.
github.com/Aeres-u99
I have created a small tool, codeatlas, that basically generates an index to codebase that your llm can lookup syper quick, github.com/Aeres-u99
there is also a cbz->pdf converter that I wrote for eink devices which is nice
(Opinion) People don’t like generative AI because it made the {insert creativity} too easy. Saw the HN post on ‘AI music banned from top 40 chart in Australia’ and people had very strong opinions in both directions.
The hot take: If you’re ok with someone’s creativity being outsourced to others, then you should be ok with AI doing the same.
If “AI made this and I call it mine” is bad but “someone overseas on fivver made this and I call it mine” and it’s suddenly ok, time to self reflect.
…
My hot take: from the moment you use technology, be it an instrument, a synthesizer, a DAW, and now AI, it is still your idea, your effort, your time spent, and that makes it yours. Others can do the same if they choose. The same way someone chooses a classic guitar over a synthesizer, one can choose an AI over (insert ancient way of doing things).
…
You’re rolling the dice whenever you are searching for a sample or a preset in a synthesizer. Eventually it’s what “sounds good”, so still the effort is your judgement and the time spent finding that “dice roll” that sounded well.
I am not a musician, so I lack the jargon to properly explain what I mean.
I used AI for creative writing (nothing too fancy, TTRPG). There, the broader the dice roll, the more generic and uninteresting the results. Slop, if you will. It was surprisingly good to build up on ideas I had however.
I imagine muisic also has building blocks. Melodies, instruments, mixing, etc. AI can perhaps be used in a similar fashion there.
I heard a perspective I sort of like: if AI is a tool then acceptable AI use is, more or less, defined as "when my audience no longer notices or cares". It's dynamic like that. Bad photoshop is detectable and annoying, so are overusing presets. Your artistry needs to expand to meet the tool.
I don't know if I 100% like that or agree. At the same time, it's a pretty straightforward line, a practical take.
hey, here! I was a coder not so long ago, and while I search for new tags for myself, why not searching for new ways to connect with people too?
Man, I LOVE naps! In fact, I mostly subsist on four or five 1-1/2 hour naps each day instead of one long over-night sleep period these days. I didn't set out to have a sleep schedule, but here I am. :-)
I forgot that I was at work and did my big sneeze, not the work sneeze. The one where a startled deer looks straight into the camera, which then zooms out to a flock of pigeons taking off, and a crow makes a warning noise.
Someone dropped something in the adjacent lab. I hope it wasn't my fault.
ennek a laptopnak mindegy már szegénynek, annyi minden történt már vele, most települ rá a Gemma 4 26B A4B QAT, az eredeti tervek szerint, amik lehet, hogy nem is a mi terveink, de arról mi már nem nagyon tehetünk, mert a körülmények áldozatai lettünk
This laptop doesn't matter anymore, poor thing, so much has happened to it, now Gemma 4 26B A4B QAT is being installed on it, according to the original plans, which may not have been our plans, but there's not much we can do about it, because we've become victims of circumstances
SCP-9871 (Omnidirectional Chicken): Foundation staff dispatched to Civilian ███'s home in the guise of Animal Control, on reports of "I get woken up by this rooster but none of my neighbors have chickens and it's like it's coming from everywhere and nowhere". Staff confirmed report but were unable to locate source. Case designated as of potential interest but low-priority given current critical personnel shortage. Channel further communications from Civilian ███ into Automated Dialogue Tree 318.
