I don't think having a textual article auto-scrolled and voiced adds anything at all, and people who do want that can do it themselves, and have it set to their choice of accent, speed, etc.
Video links tend to do worse than text links on Lemmy, so you'd probably have been better off all round just posting your original blog post.
I hadn't heard about the carrot disclosure stuff, but I hope this doesn't become a common thing. Just saying "I can hack you" with some purported output from a script is pretty useless feedback.
Geoffrey Challen, a computer scientist at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, plans to offer a new course this fall in which he will teach students to develop software “without writing, reading, debugging, or viewing a single line of code,” he told me.
Is that meant to say reviewing? Either way, I can't see how this would lead to good results, even with a comprehensive test suite. Security? Scalability? Maintainability?
Have they taken out the AI generated papers? We know that training LLMs on LLM-generated text leads to an absolute collapse in quality, and we also know that AI has been showing up in papers so if they haven't, then this will be quite unreliable.
Figuring out how to solve a problem on an OS I’d used for a few weeks fortuitously solved a problem I’d created trying to solve a different problem on a different OS a few years ago. We learn by doing!
I loved this bit, I think everyone in tech has a similar story of some kind.
Sounds amazing, I'll have to keep an eye out for rhubarb amaro. Growing up, we had rhubarb growing in the garden, but I almost never taste it nowadays.
Ériu, Banba and Fódla are from Lebor Gabála Érenn, Ireland's creation myth, and they each wanted the whole country named after them (and still can be, poetically). This is a mythologised history, not etymology.
Also, downvoting someone you're debating with is extremely bad form.
The names Ireland and Éire both derive from Old Irish Ériu, which in turn comes from Proto-Celtic ɸīweriyū meaning "fertile soil". The Classical Latin name for the island of Ireland, Ivernia, also comes from this same root
Not sure why you're mentioning Ireland, did you think it was named after Kathy Ireland?
Also, there's things like the Mediterranean that is much saltier than the Atlantic, despite plenty of water flowing back and forth. There's sealife that's only found in the Med, like the Mediterranean monk seal.
I'd be interested to know how the patterns changed - perhaps requests moved to IPv6 which made grouping request origins harder, or maybe too many unconnected users were coming from a single IP and getting false positives (leading to bad UX and support requests).
Throttling efforts led to "brownouts" via 429 errors
Does this mean for the (ab)users, or for the repo? If it's for the bandwidth hogs, then the brownouts are properly a good thing, as it'll force people to pay attention to these otherwise unmonitored systems.
Also, if it makes the upstream service seem flaky and unreliable, it could convince users to set up the proper caching proxy just for self-interested availability reasons.
I can see some companies happily paying for access, as they'll think it's easier than paying someone internally to manage a proxy/mirror, especially as on-prem is unfashionable lately.

This is just a bad text-to-speech reading of a Medium blog post.
Edit: I see the author has satire in the list of tags, so perhaps if I'd stuck with it longer I'd find it's a joke...?
I made a rubber duck for all your debugging needs:
That elongated, streamlined shell made me assume this was a joke or hoax at first.

Bah, I see this was already posted here a year ago - only two comments showed up when I searched for the url before posting!

No, you've misunderstood, here is a quote from your own source:
It was a reversion that Poettering rejected, the PR stands.

Oh, thanks for telling me...
Bot is back online.
Ah yes, I see what you mean. OP has posted content from Ten Epstein Revelations You Might Have Missed, which is the article that I see after the Israel/X story.
You scrolled past the (annoying) "read more" button and are now on the next article.
Yeah ok, I guess that's what's meant.
