It would be fair to say this applies to ai generated code. And seeing how places like google claim over 40% of their code is ai generated it would be fair to say they don't own the code.

I would like to filter all of the HN pet language noise posts. Rust, Go, etc..

So no one owns a quarter of the new code at google. It's going to be very funny when it hits 100%.

LLMs are built on top of mass theft and get away with it due to it being "derivative work". I find it strange that stealing her voice was the "this has gone too far" moment and not when they started mass scraping the internet.

CHIP-8 was what caused me to stop using github and host my projects privately. I had no license set and had everything marked as copyright and it still ended up on being ported to the Nintendo Switch without my permission. I deleted the repo thinking that would be the end of it but it gets worse. When I type my uniquely spelled name with co-pilot enabled it starts auto completing my full name and code. :(

I remember gamedevs wanting a company like this to test video game drivers and shader code on a slew of different cards and vendors but this seems clearly set up for LLM work.

Are these people even sure the comment is even deleted on the backend where I assume the data will be taken from? I feel like they'll be pissing upwind and en-shit-ifying the site that will only harm users and not the data harvesting. If anything you want the public facing stuff there and free to scrape by any average Joe.

I don't know if I would call a math library that uses templates so liberally "high performance". High performance also includes compile time in my opinion.

Coding a MUD as a hobby project using memory arenas and I am straight up not having a good time with strings. Right now I'm giving the players fixed size 4k buffers to send commands too instead of using dynamically sized strings. Everything else is golden. Just slap it on to the frame/temp arena and reset the marker back to 0 after an update.

I remember hearing a gamedev saying the last time he was happy programming was on the Amiga where he had total control.
