Discoveries can't happen for infinity because the cost needed to advance from step to step grows and the amount of knowledge required also advances step to step. Eventually it will take more resources than the earth has and more than a life time of research just to make tiny upgrades over the previous level of technology. Humans, on earth, with limited resources and limited life spans have a hard cap on the level of technology that can be achieved. In computing we are obviously already at that place given how little improvements we see generation to generation in hardware and that the majority the so called gains turn out to be marketing spiel or gimmicks like fake frames. 15 year old CPU's hold up for a lot of tasks which would never have been the case at anytime period between 1950-2010.

you dont need much in the way of hardware beyond a pen and a sheet of paper to figure shit out
theres still tons of things that others just didnt think of
you wouldnt have ai-lmaoo aka shatbots to begin with, otherwise

proof by absurd:
its a chicken and egg paradox
lets say you defo need resources to innovate:
how is you gonna invent shatbots if you dont have the gpus then?
and who is gonna give you gpus if you dont have a shatbot to run on em?

thats not how innovation works.
it starts with inspiration.
it starts with one idea, one brain.
and a sheet of paper. and a pen, ofc.

I use AI a lot but always get reminded from time to time of its BS. Today I asked ChatGPT to add a few lines to one of my laptop power management scripts to set powercap for the PCU in some low power circumstances. It is like 3 or 4 lines to add to an existing script, which I provided. Honestly I was just being lazy, but after prompting if I forgot about it. About 10 minutes later I remembered and went back to check and it was STILL churning on this question. And after another minute or so it dumped this insanely long script (original is maybe 18 lines, ChatGPT's update is over 150 lines) with so many problems, assumptions, and issues that I would never even consider using the script. I imagine how much compute was wasted to generate this nonsense. This happens pretty often. But at the same time, it can be incredibly useful when you give it clear step by step instructions. AI is a strange tool.

Want to use modern C++ features like Modules? Nuh uh can't include "non-importable headers" from common libraries
What's "non-importable"? IT'S IMPLEMENTATION DEPENDENT. No one knows.
C++ keeps stapling shiny new abstractions onto a language whose foundation is still “whatever your compiler feels like today.” Every new feature “works unless it doesn’t.”
It’s not a language design so much as cardboard layer cake.
Why don't you use something else? MPI. The alternative would be Fortran.

Doesn't matter. It's still fast. It still has good libraries. It can still do anything you want/need. It still has good compilers. It still has good tools. It still runs on anything.
>>
>>107638778
> Why don't you use something else
Because every other language is a second class citizen. C is the lingua franca of computing, everything else is forced to use some grotesque FFI. Being mostly a superset of C is the only reason anyone uses C++. And people will continue to use C++, since not one person has attempted to create an alternative.

there is little distinction between the two in practice
a c-style c++ codebase is practically unusable in a rust-style c++ codebase without so much code in between that it approximates a FFI

It just doesn't make any sense to me to put hardware instruction set architectures and software programming languages in the same category.
Instruction Sets deals with primitive computing operations.
Programming language deals with *combining* computing operations.

Note that "combining" is a general term/not overloaded term, it applies equally well to imperative and functional languages and any other paradigm.

wtf is wrong with youtube these days? I am watching this video in 1080p, the highest resolution, and it looks more pixelated than I've ever seen on a video. And it's not a temporary buffer issue. I've reloaded and rewatched from the start, and it continues to look like this. I also frequently have 20s freezes for buffering on a video when I have 500Mbps down speeds. Is youtube just cheaping out on bandwidth to save money or what

Python, one of the very few modern & popular programming languages not owned by big tech, is now begging hard for money at python.org (picrel), Wikipedia style.

This comes after the PSF rejected an US government grant because the PSF can't stop shilling for DEI: https://developers.slashdot.org/story/25/10/28/211237/python-foundation-rejects-government-grant-over-dei-restrictions
The same PSF then reported a surge of new donators following the above rejection: https://developers.slashdot.org/story/25/11/09/2017240/python-foundation-donations-surge-after-rejecting-grant---but-sponsorships-still-needed
Yet, they are now begging for money, using a big, intrusive and cringe banner at python.org, kek.

This is what your donated money is used for: https://www.python.org/psf/grants
>Conferences (e.g. PyCon Italia)
>Event site subscriptions (Meetup.com) (e.g. London Django Meetup)
>Django Girls Workshops (e.g. Django Girls Busan Workshop)
>PyLadies Workshops (e.g. All Day PyLadies Workshop)

These faggots have a whole page dedicated to their DEI philosophy: https://www.python.org/community/diversity
Their Libera Chat #python IRC channel is filled to the brim with trannies (they/them and she/her pronouns set as their IRC name).

It's hard to express how stupid of an idea this is. When I make a post on your site, I am paying you. Your site needs users. Users are attracted by posts. So when I post I am contributing to your site in a positive way. If you make me pay for the privilege then I - and the majority of posters - will leave. You know who won't leave? Spammers. They are already willing to pay to post, in the form of captcha solvers, proxies, ais to make their post, etc. If they are shills or astroturfers, they also earn money off of each post. So naturally if you explicitly charge them to post they won't blink. Charging a fee for each post is the quickest possible way to make your site consist of nothing but spammers.

The slashdot model, while also unviable today, is at least not as conceptually broken. We can think of it as a deposit that you pay for a post that is returned to you if your post isn't spam. This solves the same problem in the same way, minus the retardation. It still doesn't work, because again, by posting I am contributing to your site, but at least it does not immediately lead to your site being filled with spammers.

libtcc is just an easy way to shove a pocket C compiler into your C programs, it's fun. It means you can get a syntax tree and assembly and load it as a function and execute it within your program. Zero user interface included. Disassembler not included but libtcc gives you the bytecode to feed into e.g. libdisasm or udis86, then all you need is printf.
It's a bit rarted to livecode like this but if you're programming in C and you really want to livecode... then you have to embed your compiler into your program, and effectively remove the gap between the "compile to file" and "REPL plus JIT" paradigms yourself.
(The same can be done with libclang, but bloat.)

OpenAI solved IMO using a plain LLM, unlike DeepMind, who used a custom system based on Lean 4.

Some myths that people are coping with (with answers):

* AIs saw these problems in their training data -- No, OpenAI got the problems within minutes of IMO ending
* AIs used a lot more time -- No, OpenAI's model had the same amount of time.
* They used a boutique system designed for solving IMO problems -- Only DeepMind. OpenAI used a general LLM.

AI is already smarter than you.

In b4: spelling gotchas and image-based tasks, or people who never used top of the line LLMs like gemini-3-pro and gpt-5-high.
