Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•It's 2026, which tech did you realistically think we would have by now?
54·28 days agoI thought VR/AR would be farther along. There was a pitch 10 years ago that VR would be the “final platform” in that anything a phone, TV, tablet, or computer could do could be easily emulated in VR.
Unfortunately it’s still all walled gardens. Also nobody wants to wear that shit for more than an hour.

Technology@lemmy.ml•Meta shuts down Metaverse after $80 billion loss, ends Horizon Worlds era
35·1 month agoFor everyone who never tried it, they had honest to god paid employees in Horizon Worlds to help players get oriented. I cannot imagine a worse job.
The one I ran into was standing in front of some “game” experience that was like…jumping on tiles or some shit.

22·1 month agoBut I thought the whole line was “hOrIzOn WoRlDs iSnt the MeTaVeRsE.”
Followed by no explanation of what the metaverse is.

Programming@programming.dev•AI still doesn't work very well, businesses are faking it, and a reckoning is coming

33·1 month agoVibe coding guy wrote unit tests for our embedded project. Of course, the hardware peripherals aren’t available for unit tests on the dev machine/build server, so you sometimes have to write mock versions (like an “adc” function that just returns predetermined values in the format of the real analog-digital converter).
Claude wrote the tests and mock hardware so well that it forgot to include any actual code from the project. The test cases were just testing the mock hardware.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Have you ever converted another “normie” to use a federated social media platform ?
13·1 month agoMy whole friend group stopped trusting Meta a few years ago, so I got everyone on Matrix-Synapse instead of WhatsApp.
I just set it up on my homeserver. Everyone just calls it “Element” and has no idea how it works, but the UI is familiar and easy to use.
Trying to work on Pixelfed, but most interesting photos just get shared on Matrix anyway.
And you realize that it’s taking a while to delete that small handful of files.
Ironically, the three trades you listed are in high demand right now specifically because of the rapid rollout of the data centers needed to power AI.
It was an especially interesting case because there was a question of whether the photographer lied about who actually took the picture. So he could either claim the monkey took it an lose the copyright or claim he took it and have it lose all value.
Those aren’t for sharpening. They’re for honing the blade. A sharp edge is thin enough to get bent out of shape during normal use, so the honing tip serves to straighten the edge, not sharpen it.

16·2 months agoYo momma’s so fat, she sat on a binary tree and squashed it into a linked list in O(1) time.
I don’t get it…
Number 9 is sometimes pronounced ku — with the same pronunciation as agony or torture.
Gemini evolved into a seal.
