on Cult of Anthropic Insiders Rumored to Be Worshipping Claude as a God in c/technology@lemmy.world · 6d ago
the Effective Altruists / Effective Accelerationists / Rationalists that started OpenAI and Anthropic are cult members anyways. Rolling Stone reported this in 2024. WIRED reported about the murderous sect in 2025.
the guy who made the rounds last week about the 10% chance of killing us is one of the key figures in the Rationalist movement. his fear is stemmed in religious fervor, not socioeconomic equity.
these people have always been deeply unwell.

on Yeah use AI.. luddite in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev · 15 Sep 2026
ive personally found LLM coding to be pretty effective if i adhere to very strict “engineering best practices” like TDD, good documentation, thorough API design, systems design, etc.
im very afraid that the next generation of software engineers will never develop the skills needed to make the most out of it because they skipped the rudiments of good software engineering.
to me it feels like playing jazz without learning scales. it’s possible to be an incredible jazz musician without formal training if you’re a savant… but you’re probably not.

on Question - Retro Handhelds in c/games@lemmy.world · 13 Sep 2026
if you’re just trying to play old games, nearly all of them are capable enough to run emulators up to ps1. pick the one that supports the controls you want or is in the form factor you find the most comfortable.
so many people on r/retrohandhelds fall into the trap of turning these shovelware devices into their hobby and owning like 15 of them. you need one… the rest are e-waste.

the youtube dislike extensions have gotta be massive privacy risks, right? they track your IP, a fingerprint, and your engagement with youtube content. all you have is the developer’s word that they aren’t selling your data. and the data could be accessed without them knowing.
someone’s gotta pay for the servers to run.
