In Spanish you have: America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Antarctica and Oceania.

With North and South America, you have seven in English. Neat!

Wait, isn't Central America its own continent???

But anyway. In Spanish, there is only one continent: América. Or so I was taught. Has this changed?

No need to call dumb to the person asking the questions. Answer them and help them see the light without them feeling small. None of us came to this world with knowledge.

Oh I see! Thanks. I thought that they deliberately rejected your patch. But it was more about the red tape getting in the way. Yeah, that sounds frustrating.

Why didn't your patch get merged?

Hehe sorry, don't mind me.

I still have my reservations, but I've changed my mind about "vibe coding".

Juniors vibe coding? Awful idea. It stunts learning. Non-programmers vibe coding? Aside from small scripts, anything exposed to the internet is a dangerous thing.

Experienced programmers who already know what they're doing? Code assistants can be a bliss for tired fingers and wrists.

Is this answer generated? It doesn't say anything OP didn't address already.

[–] ElBarto@piefed.social 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, "infinite power" is waaaaaay too much power. Unless OP refers free, uninterrupted power that covers any necessity humanity will ever need, without damaging the environment. This is infinitily less power than infinite power.

I believe this can happen, though not in my lifetime.

Shit, I wonder if something similar will happen with AI.

"Remember the time when running AI required at the very least a very powerful computer running one or more GPUs at 100% capacity? Or entire datacenters costing millions of dollars per month? Crazy, right? Today you just tap your watch with a local AGI, using a couple of CR-2032 batteries that last 6 months, and you can ask it to create a multi-week vacation plan around the Caribbean in mere seconds."

Hm, I guess you're technically correct, but going so far back to middle school is like saying that "Santa is being sold as reality" because we thought that he was real at that age.
