I honestly don't know, but I think the general sentiment is that he cannot be worse.
Indeed the Tisza party won more than 2/3 of the votes, which makes a big difference in Hungary compared to just winning with a simple majority, and it's hard to say if this is good or will lead to another autocrat.

I think that's right. And a lot of people (including me) don't necessarily like Magyar or were happy about this vote, but it was the only chance to replace Orbán.
Hopefully in the next election we can vote for someone progressive, and in the meantime start repairing our relationship with Europe.

They’d rather the country be poorer and whiter than rich and diverse. Of course when the pie shrinks, the rich will demand the same amount and will tell you the crumbs you’re left with are because of immigrants or trans people or DEI. bsky.app/profile/apne...

just this week:

-- OpenAI killed Sora
-- Disney subsequently cancelled its investment in OpenAI
-- Wikipedia is now banning LLM-generated content

...tell me again how this is all "inevitable" and you have to "get on board or get left behind"?

A text image of a small part of the transcript of a conversation between Ari Shapiro and David Simon (Creater of 'The Wire') on a segment on NPR during the wirter's strike of 2023:

Shapiro: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without AI, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had that tool to solve those thorny problems...

Simon: What?

Shapiro: ...Or saying...

Simon: You imagine that?

Shapiro: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.

Simon: I don't think AI can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.

Shapiro: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into AI and say, give. me 10 ideas for how to transition this.

Simon: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Google Search is now using AI to replace headlines Let us know if you see more.

this is completely insane: since when is it acceptable for a tech company to rewrite news outlets' headlines without their consent? especially at a time when audiences are sensitive to how stories are framed in headlines? (ie Israel/Palestine, the Trump admin, ICE)

I don't "feel" my work has been stolen.
I know it.
This kind of language use by the NYT is part of the problem.
Framing it as some kind of emotional woo woo instead of a clear copyright breach...

I'm so tired of AI. Even though I disabled the AI summary in my search engine, it's impossible to avoid them in blog posts either.
I was searching for some question related to regex performance in Go, and this was the image in the first blog post I found.

Watching Politico get told they're sanewashing shit by the guy they're sanewashing is just excellent. Media cooked. Getting dunked on by the people they're protecting. We are in the post-dignity era of the press.

There are those times when you read a real news post and think it's from the Onion.

I didn't realize I needed notifications from the terminal emulator. This was introduced as a new feature in Ghostty in version 1.3, I've only been using it for a day, and it has been super useful, especially for running long build commands. #ghostty

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.

Just fuck you. Fuck you all.

I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

What's funny is you can tell exactly why it output this string.

When it stole literally all of Stack Overflow, it stole tons and tons of people's explanations of how to make a program that produces random character strings.

One of the easiest ways to do so, contains *this* ASCII string.
