V0ldek , in AI enthusiasts continue to cause the rest of us to not have nice things: project maintainer shuts down experiment to curtail backlash exacerbated by fan

Surely the task of reviewing something written by an AI that can’t be blindly trusted, a task that basically requires you to know what said AI is “supposed” to write in the first place to be able to trust its outpu, is bound to always be simpler and result in better work than if you sat down and wrote the thing yourself.

This is only semi-related but.

When I quit Microsoft last year they were heavily pushing AI into everything. At some point they added an automated ChatGPT nonsense “summary” to every PR you opened. First it’d edit the description to add its own take on the contents, and then it’d add a review comment.

Anyone who had to deal with PR review knows it can be frustrating. This made it so that right of the bat you would have to deal with a lengthy, completely nonsensical review that missed the point of the code, asked for terrible “improvements”, or straight up proposed incorrect code.

In effect it made the process much more frustrating and time-consuming. The same workload was there, plus you had to read an equivalent of a 16-year-old who thinks he knows how software works explain your work to you badly. And since it’s a bona fide review comment, you have to address it and close it. Absolutely fucking kafkaesque.

Forcing humans to read and cleanup AI regurgitated nonsense should be a felony.

Seems appropriate to post this. As usual.

FediTips , in RSS + Fedi?

@taur10

It's not as neat as Friendica's built-in support, but you can also follow RSS feeds on Mastodon by using RSS Parrot:

https://rss-parrot.net/

taur10 OP ,

@FediTips I think I found a way using Firefish, I've only just began testing it, but FireFish has a built in RSS reader widget, which shares the title or at least what'll fit, then you have to click on it and share the page, but first test went well enough once I came up with a sharing solution for Firefox.
If this works, I wonder if'n there's any managed hosting for Firefish, I know the host for my current Mastodon only offers Mastodon.

Firefish had a bit of a knock as the lead developer left the project suddenly without handing over existing infrastructure to the other devs.

The other devs are continuing Firefish in the wake of that, but for example they don't have control of the joinfirefish site and they had to set up a totally new site at https://firefish.dev

So, some of the Firefish links you see may be outdated due to these events.

taur10 OP ,

@FediTips Yeah, I ran into a number of problems and unanswered questions about widgets and plug ins, they exist but any info on getting any is non-existent. Considering how RSS is done over there, I wonder if'n Misskey offers or could offer the same functionality

I think the Firefish people are doing their best in a difficult situation, hopefully they can pull things back together.

Sharkey might be worth checking out too.

StaySquared , in Get rid of landlords...

Don't many landlords.. manage the home(s) they're renting out? Like cutting the grass, doing maintenance work, investing into the property for upgrades etc.. ?

I don't see how the landlord is stealing from the renter.

Side note: I don't support corporations buying up property and renting them out or converting them into AirBnBs.

That's waste of a rare, powerful surname. Why Melanie when there's Rose, Monica or Meggie? (Unless she has two older sisters, of course.)

StaySquaredUp , in Rigged!

lol.. when I was in high school there was some sort of D.A.R.E. program, just named something else.. they asked us to wear goggles that was supposed to simulate vision while high on marijuana. I burst into laughter and said, "this absolutely does NOT happen to your vision on marijuana."

The goggles had a haze-like film and some other sort of fractal film where each movement you made it was supposed to simulate hallucinations / flutter vision.. the police officer who looked like he was maybe in his mid twenties had a grin on his face as I passed the goggles onto the next person.

That was a point in my life when I realized.. the authority we're supposed to obey are just average dumb ass non-thinking humans.. what we call today, NPCs.
