So the future is basically people asking (praying) to AI to make them money.

While your developers are twiddling their thumbs waiting for Claude to come back online, your competitor is using alternatives to get work done right now and advancing on their go to market timeline.

Could there be something like a VPN for AI models? VPP?

You send a prompt to a neutral third party who then sends it to an AI model and then routes the response back to you?

Coming across perfect cubes in the wild must be insane

New comment by deadbabe in "Write less code, be more responsible"

deadbabe — Tue, 14 Apr 2026 13:23:18 +0000

When people say code is the bottleneck, they don’t always mean the lack of code: it’s also the accumulation of code, which becomes like plaque clogging your arteries. When you have too many people pumping out too much code, it can be the death of your startup. Startups have failed from writing way too much code.

What the hell am I reading, you guys know you can make little scripts for commands with prefilled options or even take in parameters?

deadbabe — Sun, 12 Apr 2026 14:09:57 +0000

I won’t believe AI is truly being met with violence until I see one of these AI tech billionaires get shot multiple times by a person with nothing left to lose. Until we reach that point, it means people still have hope.

Exactly, so many people reach for these complex toolings and ecosystems.

Their static pages are just a bunch of fucking text files you can print with some CLI commands.

New comment by deadbabe in "AI assistance when contributing to the Linux kernel"

deadbabe — Sat, 11 Apr 2026 13:08:45 +0000

How can we automate the disclosure of what AI agent was used in a PR and the extent of code? Would be nice to also have an audit of prompts used, as that could also be considered “code”.

It works if you just add a magnet sticker somewhere when you remove your plate.

You can remove your license plate, you will get pretty far before it actually gets you pulled over.

No way, even in this future VR still won’t catch on with the mainstream.

A decade or two from now your children will be dropping thousands of dollars to go to a concert to hear AI generated music from an AI generated artist.
