All I want to know is if it has satellite communications and the battery life

Helps if they stopped banning people randomly because you pissed off the trumpers, and didn’t require 500 karma to post anywhere

yeah. It should be the same with Facebook. Here in Australia, it seems like nothing is against the community standards anymore (not spam, porn or even violent threats)

One interesting thing I have noticed is that there seems to be a few people pointing to “studies”. Are you a developer?

And that’s without paying royalties to content creators as they should be required to do

We could argue everything here is wrong then 😂

Productivity gains are substantial but vary by task complexity: GenAI accelerates OSS development in more ways than simply writing code faster. Respondents estimate average time reductions across all six OSS development activities measured, including proposal discussions (19%) and code authoring (52%). For high-complexity tasks, however, 21% of respondents report taking more time when using GenAI.

You lose some you also win some though.

Everything still goes through human review though regardless.

It just shifts the time spent from writing code and other things to rewiting code and reviews most likely

If they’ve never received a patch potentially from someone too, it’s going to be more likely to be bad code too that can be reviewed fairly quickly

No. It’s like invading a thread talking about giving snacks to dogs. And telling everyone that there is a machine that kills puppies and turns them into sausages

Completely different.

Again, you’re free to start a thread on the environment. But it’s a complete deviation from this conversation

The other way of helping with that, is give Apple, Adobe and Windows a huge advantage, so people can’t easily move to free / open software.

It’s a lot more difficult to be controlled by a monopoly when the OS is free, and anyone can roll their own

At the moment, money is basically going straight to closed source US companies for almost every desktop computer. Remember when Tim Cook gave Trump a gift publicly the other day? We KNOW Microsoft and Apple DEFINITELY aren’t on our side… They’re not even subtle about it anymore (weirdly though, it feels like Microsoft is more on our side these days than Apple)

Is it normal for you to join discussions, and start talking about something different?

You’re certainly free to start a discussion about environmental usage, in which case I’ll agree

But it has nothing to do with the code being produced

Did you even read that 1 study you’re repeating, or just click the link

If you read the study, they ran the tests over 13 mins only. And, they didn’t keep retesting to see if results changed over time either. If that ran the test over an hour, both results may have ended up at similar levels (we don’t know because it only tested over a short time)

You need to learn to stop exaggerating or actually read crap instead of just the headline lol

I know it’s the same study we both (or presumably just myself) read, because it was the only one. I wouldn’t call that “extremely well” anything

You seem to believe that’s a great response. At this point, you’re just arguing (which seems to be most of your Lemmy history).

If you want to argue that a journalist with a slop blog and no evidence of being a developer anywhere is credible, that’s up to you.

All I see is obviously bad journalism from a guy who wants attention…

We did the maths. Didn’t seem worthwhile and the payback period was a very long time

Or maybe his blog post falls apart completely by simply pointing out that AI isn’t approving code, code doesn’t go straight to main, and all code is manually code reviewed by human.

And his blog is pages of slop.

Everyone knows about that… But, that doesn’t have anything to do with “AI Slop”. that comes down to ethical factors and is unrelated to the quality of the code

You better let the hackers know you’re being ethical then. Because they’re not going to keep using AI to identify security flaws

Removed by mod

You’re not wrong. This entire story is not unique in any capacity honestly. The story even points out other developers have tried to fix this issue with problem.

The only thing that changed, is that someone saw this time it said “AI”, and got a boner thinking about the upvotes and attention they could receive

You understand it less it sounds like.

1. Race Conditions are common. This isn’t new to AI. Nobody writes stories about them though unless they lead to security issues (like with XFS, which had one for 10 years and only fixed recently).
2. There is a lot happening in the kernel, its not always a matter of looking in one tiny location. A race condition is pretty broad and can lead to many things.
3. Patches get rejected all the time, for reasons including race conditions which are identified.
4. If you check the post, other developers had tried and failed to fix the same issue. He’s not the only one. It was just yet another failed attempt
5. Optimisation is HARD, and always has been.
6. Finally, you say “suggested it for submission”. That code would go to a staging repo first for testing. He wasn’t suggesting pushing it immediately to the main tree…
7. Standard development tools (at least for my development work) wouldn’t catch race conditions (maybe commercial ones / high end ones would)… AI is actually far better at detecting these things

This isn’t a unique or interesting story in any capacity… It’s boring and normal

The code still undergoes the exact same code review as before, because humans were the original slop coders.

The standards needed for code to be accepted haven’t changed at all. Even the code Linus personally is reviewed…
