/biz/ herre.How is AI not another dot-com bubble?What are its practical applications, aside from porn generation and helping high schoolers with their homework? How does it make money?
>>107740616>like the space raceman but at least that was cool and some of the materials they invented during that became useful for everyday life. So far with AI, it just means there's now more slop in my life.
>>107740939What, significantly worse off? Advertised to every minute of the day, harvested for data, systematically priced out of owning any significant assets, left with an aging population that will not have enough young people to care for them? The average person is worse off now than they were in the 2000s. Furthermore, more specifically, the Dotcom bubble blew up numerous companies, fucked a lot of finances and stagnated the economy until 2006ish, when it was promptly blown up again for different retarded reasons. The web is not useless, but the valuations at the time were absolutely retarded, completely unattached from actual useful businesses. It was the insane financing, valuations and investment decisions that made the Dotcom bubble, not the tech itself being flawed or useless. People didn’t want to miss out on the next big thing, and then promptly blew up their money investing into shit they didn’t understand, but was being hyped by investors who knew they could be the lesser fool in a shit investment and cash out.
>>107737777>How is AI not another dot-com bubble?It probably is>What are its practical applications, aside from porn generation and helping high schoolers with their homework?Most useful application I can see is that it can be a better search engine, but the hallucination problem is intrinsic to this tech and also crippling to this use case, so it's all kinda meh in practice if you try to use it for real work where correctness and truth actually matter (let alone quality).>How does it make money?Right now it doesn't seem to make money at all. The tech is extremely expensive due to extreme hardware demand and like I said the actual productivity boost you get from it is dubious at best, at least in professions where truth and correctness matter. I think this is a serious flaw and it will continue to prevent these services from making any money.It might have some real applications in domains where correctness and truth do not matter. Unfortunately these are mostly the artistic pursuits where fiction reigns, though even there you need internal consistency which is kind of the same thing. Still if you AI generate some artwork and it's good, then it's good and there's no objective correctness to strive for.I could also see this sort of tech as something potentially cool if it can be applied properly to video games. I don't mean fully generating slop games or some shit, but including it as a mechanic. Imagine a game where the NPCs and the world can fully react to everything you do, or where you can have more free-form conversations with NPCs and so on. Might be cool, though of course even in this use case whatever "AI" is used has to be reined in so it doesn't do something retarded.
>>107740245Productivity should be measured in quality output, but lazy and incompetent workers don't want it to be measured like that. AI isn't even the real problem. The problem are the managers and any worker with managerial duties. Often times, the higher up in the ladder they go, the less coding they do, and the more incompetent they become. They start increasingly believing in their own delusional fantasies, which leads to disastrous results in the future.

>>107741289My DVDs look better than the yify torrents I download. I dont mind much, tho. I watch youtube at 144p because I dont have unlimited internet data.
>>107743604It may actually have been. Very few people know this, but CRTs actually enhance images fed into them through esoteric means. Or at least they used to, before the collapse of spiritual energies, and the fall of the world into corrupted sin.
>>107741315then why don't both of those look the same to me?
>>107743074:D.jpeg
>>107741289It's due to superior CRT technology and has nothing to do with growing up.

>>107745756I love how e-jeets immediately refer to their overwhelming numbers the instant they're insulted or challenged, basically admitting they have nothing to offer the rest of humanity and intend to "win" through parasitism alone.Any other race would be ashamed of this, but not jeets, who sincerely don't understand how pathetic this makes them look
>>107745753>currynigger forgot to swtich from 4chan AI shilling mode to LinkedIn AI shilling mode>>107743219I am convinced every anonymous AI shill is Indian or has money invested in AI/Nividia related index funds. There is going to be a bubble bursting in the industry eventually, and so they are trying to hype AI in the meantime before liquidating positions. Slapping "AI" onto everything does not solve real world problems or make a return on investment.
>>107745756In theory 10 people with an IQ of 60 have a collective IQ of 600, in practice 2 billion Indians with an IQ of 60 still just are clinically retarded.
are KOSS headphones any good? or are they influencer slop?
>>107743305>>107742489>>107734249>Le IEM~I swear that retarded IEM shit became the new ear fedora. THEY ARE JUST OVERPRICED EARBUDS
I have like 6 pairs of headphones, all recommended ones that sound "great". Half open ones, big ones, smaller ones (no in ear shit). The thing is, while they sound "good" literally all of them pierce my ears with sharp high frequencies. Even when I tested them in some Hifi shop on a thousands of $$$ preamp. I keep returning to the portas. Most people say they have muddy highs but apparently I'm over sensitive or some shit because while I DO hear what they mean it just sounds soft and comfortable to me. I can listen to them literally all day without getting tired while all others give me migraines sooner or later. They are light, do not fucking clamp my enormous head and the hair pulling shit is solved by >>107745070I have yet to find a pair of headphones that have similar "soft" highs and upper mids but apparently the average human nowadays is deaf and NEEEEEEEEDDS piercing highs to enjoy shit.
>>107734191I bought my first pair of Porta Pros circa 2008 and I usually keep a pair on hand in case I don't want to use my wireless earbuds during my workout sessions.
>>107745229Would you say their sound has changed since 2008? (I mean when you bought new ones recently)
>>107734191Yes it's slop. Stick with your Seinheisershit. Was going to buy SB40 but you fuckers cleaned everything before xmass.
Welcome to the Daily Programming Thread. What are you working on, /g/?Previous: >>107711909
>>107745134API(Application Program Interface)People use that to mean different things in different contextes.It can mean library (in some language)It can mean http endpoint (for web fags)It can mean RPCIf you go to deeper into details they will tell you about calling conventions. Depends what you are doing.
>>107745134>>107745134The best way to mentally visualize and understand APIs in the realm of software and programming, is to just think of them as different types of cable plugs.Different cables have different plug standards, right? Like inside your computer, there's a whole standardization behind the cable plugs wiring your fans, GPU, and all the crap plugging into your PSU before it meets a higher level standardization ie the AC wall outlet.All that IMAGEHLP.DLL does is sort of house a function (it probably has a lot of functions in it actually), which your own program can use (this is typically done by telling your code to go for that exact .DLL file, and calling the exact function name you need). That function knows how to more directly interact with the operating system at a lower level and the operating system gives that specific .DLL permission to do so (where as a lot of cases the applications typically would be restricted from getting that far under the hood).tl;drAPI is just anything that allows one software system or application to "plug into" another to exchange data in a common or standardized format. The distance or complexity does not define an API (ie internet APIs like REST/gRCP are more complex than operating system APIs which are just .dll libraries with functions, but ultimately they're all just plugs that have an expectation and standardization to pass data)
>>107738379I've used UPX for a video game distribution before and adding UPX made more anti viruses flag the game as a false positive. I wouldn't recommend using it for actual software you intend to distribute to normies unless you can also afford an EV signing certificate (like $800-1000/year).
>>107745271>the operating system gives that specific .DLL permission to do soAlmost nobody implements that sort of check (because it's stupid hard to make sure it isn't compromised). The DLL may be the main thing that knows how, but anything that makes the right syscalls gets the right responses.DLLs are not that sort of security boundary, as they're in the calling process and can be affected by things that process does.
Is there a way to have a flexbox with variable max-width/min-with in order to accomodate the width for It's parent container? I would also like to always have the same gap width and no fixed amount of columns.I achieved something like that enabling flex grow, but the last row' cards usually have more width than the rest of the cards in order to fill the whole width and I dont like that.
DDR2 is still worth it only if it can YouTube 1080p.
>>107735998ddr4 is good enough for me
that image would make a neat 4chan banner
>>107741460>modern SSDs faster than most DDR2Maybe in pSLC mode. Internally they then convert to TLC/QLC, which can be super slow, 300MB/s.
>>107740975not really i just have a job
>>107745552But you've got a 16 GB hoard of DDR2. Do you know how valuable that is these days?

>>107743671* the problem was created in the 70's when bill gates said if people stopped sharing software he was going to hire 10 good programmers and never did. that was the beginning of enshittification* in the 90's, factories were sold to asian countries for a few years of output, and americans were going to be employed by writing shitty proprietary software that it would be illegal to modify yourself, i.e. rent seeking instead of innovation* in the 00's and 10's, the flower of my generation went to silicone valley to grow boobies while writing garbage user-hostile programs. even linux systems began to have incompatible trash forced on them by lennartswami poetterjeesh and the waylandgupta team. by now weve transitioned from oss -> alsa -> pulseaudio -> pipewire and sound still regularly fails. every command you learn has a half life of 5 years before the next swami comes along and replaces it with something inferior* the indians are better at the izzat system of modern software
