There’s a notable vibe shift when it comes to ROI of AI coding tools in recent weeks.

As expensive as Claude is getting now, it will only get worse after Anthropic IPOs and has to impress investors each quarter.

I don’t have a high opinion of software dev in general but I’d never have expected “breaking without warning a popular backup and deployment tool is bad actually” to be a controversial statement.

Truly a triumph. Congrats.

Note to all University and College faculty: if you are pushing AI, or telling your students how "it's the future," they all hate you. They may not be saying it in your classroom to your face, but rest assured they are absolutely clowning on you outside of class.

"...the U.S. disabused anyone of the idea that Venezuela was still sovereign by dispatching two military helicopters into Caracas, ostensibly to train for “emergencies” at the United States embassy, and the commander of the US Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) emerged as a passenger, just in case anyone needed proof of who is in charge."

Advice I was given in my youth:

Print your slide on a full piece of paper. Put the paper on the ground. Stand on a chair.

If you can’t easily read your slide, neither can the person at the back of the room.

It flummoxes me that 30 years into using computers to show slides, tiny fonts in slide is *still* widespread practice.

To our dismay, the artist and author Marjane Satrapi has passed away.

As she wrote, ordinary Americans and Iranians have more in common with each other than we do with either of our governments, which have far too much in common with each other.

We honor her memory and oppose the war.

within the past 24 hours I’ve watched two people claim there was nuance to the rsync story that made tridge right, and after not too much discussion they admitted they didn’t know rsync’s slop code only got noticed after a severe breakage occurred, or that people have evaluated the slop commits and found them to be of extraordinarily poor quality (including rendering rsync’s test suite ineffective by translating it from bash into broken python). the story they heard is that someone saw Claude in the commit log and freaked out and directed harassment towards tridge. they seemed to be under the false impression that rsync still worked fine.

how is it that the members of the supposed angry mob are doing deeper analysis than the people claiming nuance?

Rsync opens the slopgates, regressions and bugs ensue

Andrew Tridgell, developer of rsync, has published a blog post addressing the massive surge in "AI" code submissions and the string of regressions supposedly caused by them. He explains rsync was flooded with "AI"-generated security reports, and he couldn't handle the volumes anymore.

As this flood started to get mo
