Google has no maintenance culture. Maintenance is simply not rewarded. Instead in order to get rewarded one needs to launch new things to show "impact". At some point the only way to move forward is to deprecate some unmaintained features or the entire product.

Polish commentary on Hitlergruß: https://bsky.app/...

Translation:

  • it’s just a Hindu symbol of prosperity
  • a normal Roman salute
  • regular rail car
  • wait a second

The "we'll save some bucks by removing physical knobs and pose this as futuristic by making some vital functions only accessible via multiple levels of menus on a touchscreen" thing is the worst and should be banned.

Is that a comedy account? The announcement surely reads as if it was…

It's a treasure trove of hilariously bad takes.

There's nothing intrinsically valuable about art requiring a lot of work to be produced. It's better that we can do it with a prompt now in 5 seconds

Now I need some eye bleach. I can't tell anymore if they are trolling or their brains are fully rotten.

Ugh, just reading the summary made me want to puke. What the fuck is wrong with those people. Who the fuck thinks that delegating the responsibility to computers is a good idea. Can't they cope with the outcomes of their choices and need to outsource that responsibility to some magick software

Film photography is my hobby and I think that there isn't anything that would prevent from exposing a displayed image on a piece of film, except for the cost.

Depending on film it might not be easy to tell exposing an image from a real picture.

The "hybrid" digital instax cameras work this way, it's just a digital camera that has a way to internally expose the picture on the instant film.

It's trivial to do analog prints from digital images too, just requires an inkjet printer and a special film to print out the "digital negative".

The only way in which it may succeed as a deterrent is that it actually costs some money (film and processing is not cheap) and requires actual work to do those extra steps.

Digressing: The irony is that it's a language with one of the best standard libraries out there. Wanna run a http reverse proxy with TLS cross compiled for a different os? No problem!

Many times I used it only because of that despite it being a worse language.

They need debugging tools specifically designed for AI-generated solutions.

What the hell does that even mean, lmao?

Focus on AI tool literacy: Developers using AI tools daily show 88% favorability compared to 64% for weekly users. This suggests proper training and integration strategies significantly impact outcomes.

What kind of drugs are they on

Well, they can't fully outsource thinking to the autocomplete if they get asked whether some actions are okay.
