I absolutely cannot stand Microsoft's products. I have to deal with them at my job and just everything Microsoft does is a paywall, over complicated, or so shitty and bloated I want to jab pencils in my eyes. /rant #Microsoft #Slop
RE: #Microsoft #SLOP
The key takeaways from the early part of the #chardet thread (I didn't read beyond the ~30 first comments, I have my limits).
1. People there love cosplaying lawyers. Except when the other side also starts cosplaying lawyers, in which case they suddenly divert to suggesting asking professional lawyers.
2. Almost nobody there is concerned with ethics or morality.
3. There's a lot of GPL haters there. Like, they seem the kind of people who don't really care about licensing at all, just used MIT in their projects because it was cool and they heard something about license incompatibility and now bash at everything that's (L)GPL.
4. People don't get that LLMs are statistical models and can't build anything from the ground up. All they can do is remix, which implies they use existing code for inspiration.
5. The maintainer who did the rewrite is a total asshole, and is perfectly aware of it.
Honestly, I'm truly waiting for the subsidizing to end and companies start charging obscene amounts for the use of LLMs. Of course, the reality is that we're totally fucked. We have a lot of projects that adapted a lot of #slop, and people who are being increasingly addicted to this shit. The moment they can't afford it, we'd be left with lots of broken code nobody wants to maintain.
And I definitely don't want to put my effort into packaging crap if its maintainers don't even bother trying.

Last night I had a #nightmare.
I dreamt that I've sent a pull request to a project, and it turned out that the whole CI pipeline is just LLMs dynamically slopping random tests against the PR. And of course these tests couldn't pass, and you could do nothing to make the PR actually pass tests.

Searching the Internet in the past: you type a few keywords. You get a bunch of sites. You check these sites for the information you need.
Searching the Internet in the future: you type your question as a full sentence. You get an answer that may be complete bullshit. You ask for sources. You get a list of sources that may be entirely made up. You check the sources. They are an obvious #AI #slop…
