Hopefully language models kill copyright.

Soon they'll be using CV and won't need FPV.

We're rapidly heading towards the world that was warned about in the 2017 short Slaughterbots https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fa9lVwHHqg

You still want someone to get the drone to a place where it can see the target, and someone to select this target.

Only then can CV do the last part ("terminal engagement"). But that also means it won't go inside a hangar and find the target there.


Early 30s

It's usually easier to just install Linux from what I've seen.

If you're not doing C++ gdb is pretty good, most people just don't know how to use it.

Maybe it's baby duck syndrome, but I've gone out of my way to use gdb over VS's debugger. A simple .gdbinit has more expressive scripting power than a GUI can ever allow.

Black hats have to be right once, white hats have to be right every time.

They can spray and pray, you have to write proofs.


The correct response to this kind of thing is an invoice IMO.

Someone needs to come up with a Steam for AD DCs.

Hasn't Windows Explorer been a web UI thing since Windows 98?

Explorer around Win98, I think as part of IE4, got the capability of hosting a web page in an explorer window (or part of it anyway for things like showing details) but it wasn't the control used for actually navigating through files. They did try and simulate it by allowing files to be single click to open and giving them blue underlines. MS kept using good ol' list views up through today for most of it. It is in the newer experiences where they're thrashing about and adding galleries, suggestions, and whatever will get someone promoted.

They have to do that, it's how they think. If they were trained not to do that they'd produce lower quality code.

So why don't Claude and Open AI models do this?

O3 does, no? 2.5 Pro is a thinking model. Try flash if you want faster responses

No. We're not talking a few useful comments, but verbosity where typically the number of comments exceeds the actual code written. It must think we're all stupid or it's documenting a tutorial. Telling it not to has no effect.
