There's a new meat eating hype. Meat companies are telling everyone people would have more energy if they only ate more meat. Employers are getting huge meat lunches for their employees and expecting a productivity boost. Against their better judgement, employees are stuffing themselves with loads of meat and struggling to work. But eventually, they figure out how to eat more and be more productive. In the meantime, a lot of people (including meat eaters) are crying over the obvious climate and health harm, both from increased meat consumption and from increased waste as people throw away even more food.

Meat eaters now put up a big banners of what meat they like, and invite others to join them with meat. More people are becoming vocally vegan, or at least trying to limit their meat consumption. Some also put "vegan" or even more aggressive "no meat allowed" signs.

Some meat eaters think it's fine to bring offering of meat to a stranger if they didn't put up an explicit "vegan" sign yet. "I won't get offensed, I'll just throw it in the trash", they say. Some go even further and try to trick you by saying it's actually a vegan meat-lookalike.

I will never understand why so many activists still use generative images for their content, and rely on big tech for communications and organizations when there are now so many practical, more secure, and much more ethical alternatives.

Your principles aren't just to be stated, they must also be embodied and integrated in your work.

We must show by example what can be done with ethical tech and ethical practices.

All these talks of "#AI achieved in a day what used to take a month" make me recall how a certain Polish person (known for the usual post-WW2 abstract hatred for Germans) noted how many great highways were built by the Nazi Germany. I think this needs no further comment.

Congratulations. Now I'm actively worried to open a PR fixing my issue, because there's already been a few #slop PRs opened attempting to fix it. And I'm literally worried that mine would be taken as another slop PR…

Human translators manage good #translation because they comprehend the original text, know its intricacies and can actually creatively write to preserve its gist. Context is more than the surrounding paragraphs: it includes the cultural and social background, other books, etc. Sometimes it literally involves getting hints from the author. And in the end, it is deeply personal. It can't be "accurate", because no two people are the same, and no two languages map 1:1 (though the interpretation will also differ between different users of the same language); the best you can do is add translator's notes.

LLM translators manage good translation because they've been fed tons of human translation work, and quite often they manage to match an original human translation and plagiarize it. They may even seem better because they seem to manage it without sufficient context, but that's only because they've found a human translation that had that context already.

Or, well, technically they can also regurgitate something that makes sense only in the irrelevant original context.

Do you remember the good old days when people who couldn't do basic HTML, used a WYSIWYG editor to create a website, rather than asking a slop machine to spit random HTML for them?

LOOKING FOR A JOB

https://nemo.earth/#barto

SKILLS
Frontend mostly, JS mostly, Svelte React Vue Ionic mostly. But often after work day I was developing fullstack apps, with NodeJS as backend. Coding also in raw PHP. And maybe will return to Python. Besides of course GIT, HTTP, Rest, SOLID, Keep It Simple, etc.

COOPERATION
Contract B2B with my one-person company.

SALARY
Fair enough for Mid+ / Senior.

IMPORTANT
I don't use AI while coding. And don't want to!

When you're building software aimed at a niche related to hype, the only thing you can do is hook people onto it. I mean, you're targeting the kind people who have an attention span of a fruit fly. Unless they're literally addicted to your software, they're going to forget it as soon as they notice the next shiny thing.

Given these days you can't even expect #Gentoo contributors to be respectable, I'm working on adding a git hook that rejects commits with #LLM attribution. Could you help me find all the common patterns used to mark LLM-assisted #git commits?

So far I'm checking for author and Co-authored-by using the following e-mail patterns:

• copilot@github.com
• *@anthropic.com
• claude@users.noreply.github.com
• *+claude[bot]@users.noreply.github.com
• *@openai.com
• *+chatgpt-codex-connector[bot]@users.noreply.github.com
• *@cursor.com
• *@x.ai
• *@google.com

I think some people came up with some other tags to mark LLM commits but can't find that right now.

So when #Anthropic can't buy #GNU Toolchain project wholesome, it can always buy its developers.

Oh wait, this mail that starts with Anthropic marketing bullshit is not "an endorsement of Anthropic". And you're not permitted to criticize him.

Okay, I'll give you that: LLMs aren't the root of the problem.

Capitalism is. The idea of infinite growth. The idea that people can't just live, they must with 40+ hours a week to justify their existence, and they must be purchasing something all the time. Companies must keep selling new stuff. All the resources must be tapped into and exploited.

And companies are making software. They must keep selling new features and pointless complete redesigns nobody wanted. The code must keep being churned over and over again. Programmers must justify their existence by churning out absurd amounts of meaningless code. The companies must exploit them.

Then, companies are entering the #OpenSource "market". They are acquiring and enshittifying. They are hiring and exploiting. And then so many volunteers just jump on the bandwagon and keep cosplaying them. And they too churn out useless code, "sell" pointless complete makeovers, "profit" off their users (even if they actually aren't making any real profit).

And then come LLMs, perfect tools for the job. Perfect tools for exploitation, for churning out useless code, for creating addiction, and for turning everyone into mindless corpospeak bullshit machines.
