I find AI is great at documenting code. It's a description of what the code does and how to use it - all that matters is that it's correct and easy to read, which it almost certainly will be in my experience.

I have quite a different take on that. As much as most people view documentation as a chore, there is value in it.

See it as code review, reflection, getting a birds eye view.

When I document my code, I often stop in between, and think: That implementation detail doesn't make sense/is over convoluted/can be simplified/seems to be lacking sanity check etc…

There is also the art of subtly injecting humor in it, with, e.g. code examples.

b2ccb2 commented on Australian author's erotic novel is child sex abuse material, judge finds   bbc.com/news/articles/ckg... · Posted by u/qwefrqwf

This is absolutely disturbing. While I fully advocate allocating resources to stop child sexual abuse and the pornographic material created during such crimes, no one was hurt here. this was a written story fabricated from the author's mind. Now we're on the very of though crime.

> Amanda was 10 years old. she went into the bathroom and had sex with a 30 year old man.

I think it would be ridiculous to say that the above sentence is on the same level as creating or distributing CSAM. Yet the predication of the argument is that the story conjured csam in the user's mind. Basically thought crime.

Absolutely agree, wait until the judge finds out about Bukowski's "The Fiend".

A good time to advertise for Sudo Mastery by Michael W. Lucas, highly recommend it if you want to dig in a bit deeper.

Closing optional HTML tags just adds more ambiguity. How many HTMLParagraphElements here, what do you think?

    <p>
      text1
      <p>
        text2
      </p>
    </p>

That is invalid syntax. Only phrasing content is allowed the p element (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Guides/Con...)

It would be trivial to allow all possible languages with toLocaleString[0]:

  d = new Date();
  console.log(d.toLocaleString(window.navigator.language, {
    weekday: 'short'
  }));

Generated by AI. Use 1secmail API without giving any credit.

False advertisment.

You got it. This is AI Slop at it's worst. And even the replies from the author reeks of AI. I read some of the source code, and it is slop, which I would never trust without scrutiny. Carefully read just the first words of benmxrt:

You're right that the current beta…

That is a great point

Absolutely agree with both of you

That is an intriguing feature request

That’s a very fair point

You hit the nail on the head

Great question

That is a valid point

Sharp eye

b2ccb2 commented on Full Unicode Search at 50× ICU Speed with AVX‑512   ashvardanian.com/posts/se... · Posted by u/ashvardanian
andersa · 2 months ago
From a German user perspective, ICU and your fancy library are incorrect, actually. Mass is not a different casing of Maß, they are different characters. Google likely changed this because it didn't do what users wanted.
b2ccb2 · 2 months ago
The confusion likely stems from the relatively new introduction of the capitalized ẞ https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gro%C3%9Fes_%C3%9F

Maß capitalized (used to be) MASS.

Funnily enough, Mass means one liter beer (think Oktoberfest).
