I always preferred the mixing of vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry ice cream. Worth a follow!

With respect to the current GPU market, your goal should probably be a Steam Deck.

That, or get lucky at an estate sale.

Server code generating HTML is icky in modern web development.

There’s been a big uptick in interest around SSR lately, so maybe not.

That’s cool.

@dgerard@awful.systems who is your illustrator? These are consistently great.

For one: your university might own anything you create while using their resources and facilities.

CSS by itself cannot determine the colors present in an image element, so you won’t be able to write a style targeting all your images.

If you’re willing to attach a class to all your bright images, you could use the filter property.

HTML

<img class="invert" src="some-bright-image.jpg" />

CSS

.invert {
  filter: invert(1);
}

That’s not what I thought /hj meant.

Ah, so worse. Cool.

In my experience, devs who want to “keep politics out of it,” typically don’t want their politics challenged.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )

Sorry, one of the hyperlinks in the article (“pretending to be oblivious”) linked to a toot that was preceded by this toot which says:

I am sorry but the last paragraph about accessibility is complete and utter bullshit. Jesus fucking Christ.

I don’t know what’s worse, giving the metux more attention or not having a clue what you write about.

There isn’t any " remarkable levels of anti-X11 sentiment from Wayland proponents since the announcement" either. Your perception of reality is so wrapped its basically an Ouroboros by now.

Emphasis mine

Is “metux” a distro, or a bad pun on “Me Too?”

Can you post what you’re seeing? Looks like a Lemmy instance to me.

Well, yeah. Isn’t that the stated goal?

Eliminates reliance on any single source for core updates, plugins, themes and translations, enabling federation across the ecosystem from trusted sources

[…]

Brings together a fragmented ecosystem by bringing together plugins from any source, not just a central source, while creating a foundation for modern security practices.

Builds security into the supply chain, including improved cryptographic security measures, enhanced browser compatibility checking, and enabling reliance on trusted source security salts.

Linux Foundation announcement.

So keep up with the downvotes and good luck.

Baby’s bottom soft.

There’s nothing conspiratorial about it. Goosing queries by ruining the reply is the bread and butter of Prabhakar Raghavan’s playbook. Other companies saw that.

If I were to ask my Magic 8 Ball “Is the word ‘difinitely’ misspelled?” 100 times, it’s going to reply in the affirmative over 16% of the time. Literally double. This would also be “the very first experiment in this use case, done by a single person on a model that wasn’t specifically designed for this.”

It’s not impressive.

The issue with hallucinations…

This is the real problem: working under the false assumption that there are two kinds of output. It’s all the same output. An LLM cannot hallucinate in the same way that it cannot think or reason. It’s fancy autofill. Predictive text.

You can use it to brainstorm creative solutions, but you need to treat its output for what it is: complicated dice rolls from the tables in the back of the Dungeon Masters Guide. A fun distraction. Implausible fantasy 9 times out of 10.

I bought a thing that said it was good for A and B but it’s only good for B. Marketing problem! I didn’t make a bad decision! I wasn’t tricked! I’m a smart boy!

In 100 runs only 8 correctly identify the targeted vulnerability, the rest are false positives or claim that there are no vulnerabilities in the given code. … [The] signal to noise ratio is very low, and one has to sift through a lot of wrong reports to get a realistic one.

It was right 8% of the time when presented the least amount of input to find a known bug. Then, when they opened it up to more of the codebase, its performance decreased.

I’m not going to use something that’s wrong over 92% of the time. That’s insane. That’s like saying my Magic 8 Ball “could be used as a useful tool for helping to detect vulnerabilities.” The fucking rubber ducky on my desk has a more reliable clearance rate.

The future of web development is XHTML. Get on or get left behind.

Transitional XHTML resulted in extremely organized (if verbose) DOMs and delivered features that took forever to show up in HTML5.

It also sniffed out the sociopaths who capitalize elements and close their tags out of order. Fucking …
