Omg ty

This so much! I can search on google or Bing and get two actual results and the rest are ads. I ask gemini or others and sure I have to ask again but I get the results much quicker than wading through two pages of ads.

Just ask Australian how well minimum age verification works!

Wtf is post nut clarity?

I think the problem is a cyclical one. Some devs are afraid to admit that they used AI to help them code because there’s so much hatred towards using AI to code. But the hatred only grows because some devs are not disclosing that they’ve had help from AI to code and it seems like they’re hiding something which then builds distrust. And of course, that’s not helped by the influx of slop too where an AI has been used and the code has not been reviewed and understood before its released.

I don’t mind more foss projects, even if they’re vibe coded, but please PLEASE understand your code IN FULL before releasing it, if at least so you can help troubleshoot the bugs people experience when they happen!

Built with Claude by the looks of things. Not sure if Claude was used to generate the boilerplate and whether the dev reviewed it after or whether Claude did all of it, but definitely Claude was used for some of it. I recognise the coding style that Claude outputs and the bugs that it implements that will cause TypeErrors if not handled.

FWIW, I’m not against using AI as an assistant for coding (I do it too, using Claude and Vercel as assistants) just as long as the code is reviewed and understood in full by the dev before publishing.

Nothing wrong with a professional developer with years of experience using AI as a tool for coding, just as long as they review the output first before using it in their project. My workplace (where I work as a dev) provides us with a Claude subscription to use it as a tool. It’s kind of just like using a drill instead of a screwdriver to screw something into a wall - done well in the right hands it’s fine, give it to a 13yo and they’re going to drive the screw through the plaster and make a holy mess of it.

What IS wrong is a human who has little-to-no experience coding using an AI to develop the entire codebase and then the human releases the code into the wild without some level of peer review from a human who DOES have experience and then claiming it as their own creation. That’s almost sloppy plagiarism (of ironically already sloppy plagiarism).

Maybe one day our elected leaders will actually do some leading, rather than pandering to people in their pockets (and I’m not talking about one or another political party, they’re all shit). Whats the alternative at the moment? I don’t know. Meritocracy has some useful features, but it’s historic applications have not worked out so well long tern and sometimes devolves into socialism or is abused to create substantive inequality. History has alot of great examples of where different alternatives have not worked…

Sadly no

Until the libs turn around and scream that we’re killing off peoples jobs and blah blah. Then they’d get to “How could Labor allow AI to do that?” and then sky news would do a whole segment on it convincing the NIMBYs that we are the enemy and a potato would never allow that to happen.

Murdoch’s manipulation via media needs to stop somehow. It’s gotten way too out of hand.

How’s the performance on something like this?

If this is on Twitter, then it makes sense. That platform is a cesspool

Debrid services

I think the lack of ordinal suffixes seems to be an increasingly (non-format-specific) used thing across many date formats and date vernaculars. I still add it when Im saying dates out loud or writing emails (eg “26th January” vs “26 January”) because it sounds less mechanical and robotic.

Probably doesn’t help that I’m autistic and omitting tiny little details like that give me eye twitches… Lol

Yeah I know that now. 😊

I tend to disagree. The only people I know who use American date format pf mmm dd are either heavily influenced by American culture, media and other sourced like these, or are actually from a country which uses mmm dd date formats. The vernacular that I’ve experienced over 3 states and 5 cities on the east coast of Australia is “day month”.

Anyway, as I said, I’m not here to argue with you. I feel as this thread is just detracting more and more from your point (which I agree with) that Australia day is not a day of celebration… So how about we agree to disagree on the date format and move on.

Actually we do have an official standard for both short and long date. It’s “day month year”, not “month day”. Short dates are d/m/yyyy, long dates are dd mmm yyyy. https://www.stylemanual.gov.au/style-manual-resources/quick-guides/quick-guide-dates-and-time#%3A~%3Atext=at+midday+tomorrow.-%2CDates%2C-Use+the+'day

Fair enough, although “January 26” is still American date format, not Australian date format.

Anyway, not trying to cause an argument or anything, just pointing out some tips you might like to pass on to the graphic designer and marketing team. I’ll see myself out.

“January 26 15” at the top. I mean, even translating that from American date format, it still doesn’t make sense unless the poster was originally made for Australia day 2015…

Again though, nothing against the statement being made, I am in the “Australia day isn’t a celebration” camp too. Just a shame the date format isn’t Australian date format. It detracts from the effectiveness of the statement by making the incorrect date format the focus, rather than the statement being made.
