It feels like all my peers are experiencing Deep Blue and having to choose their future career path:
expert in a dying field
or
collaborator in a fascist project.
I'm wrong on the internet, mostly about wrestling with computers in general but especially about programming.
l boost almost all book recommandations and a lot of nice pictures.

En Belgique, si deux listes sont Ă Ă©galitĂ©s, elles ont chacune le mĂȘme nombre de siĂšges et sont forcĂ©es de travailler ensemble, câest beau non ?
"AI" users are like, "I know this is imprecise but as a convenience these transcriptions are better than nothing"
then 70 years from now we'll still be struggling to debunk these entirely hallucinated transcriptions of thousands of manuscripts that were pissed into the pool of human knowledge.
some things are worse than nothing. "signal-shaped noise" is worse than nothing.

A very lively talk, with lot of body language, perfect to avoid going to sleep after lunch.
"Computer science is a science without any interest for research methods. Or for people."
80% of soldiers at the Battle of the Bulge never fired their weapons. 80% of your Slack workspace has never shipped anything. Marshall called it diffusion of responsibility. We seem committed to calling it "culture."
"AI is coming to the Linux kernel in the form of a code review system - not code submissions.
Announced on LinkedIn by Roman Gushchin, a Linux kernel engineer at Google, Sashiko is a tool written in Rust for spotting bugs and screening code.
Gushchin said: "In my measurement, Sashiko was able to find 53 percent of bugs based on a completely unfiltered set of 1,000 recent upstream issues based on 'Fixes:' tags (using Gemini 3.1 Pro). Some might say that 53 percent is not that impressive, but 100 percent of these issues were missed by human reviewers.""

Lors dâune table ronde au « Printemps de lâEconomie », le prix Nobel Philippe Aghion a dĂ©noncĂ© lâinefficacitĂ© du dispositif trĂšs gĂ©nĂ©reux français, captĂ© par les grands groupes et qui le dĂ©fendent en faisant un chantage Ă la dĂ©localisation.

J'aime pas ces féminisations modernes. Chercheure, docteure. C'est pas un accord, c'est un assentiment à affixer un "e" féminisant à un mot masculin. Le féminin de chercheur c'est chercheuse. Oui on dirait que ça veut dire que ton métier c'est de partir à la recherche de la chaussette perdue ou de chercher la merde, mais le problÚme n'est pas le mot chercheuse, c'est la disqualification de la forme féminine du mot chercheur. Pareil pour docteur, son féminin c'est doctoresse. Une femme qui est docte.
Et ne croyez pas que c'est parce que je refuse la modernisation de la langue et que je me rattache telle une académicienne aux "nobles archaïsme" du français. C'est en fait tout l'inverse : ces suffixes de féminisation - esse, eresse, euse, ice etc - rendent la féminité audible. Pas seulement lisible. à mes yeux ils légitimisent pleinement l'existence d'une forme féminine de l'exercice, plutÎt que simplement accepter, à contre-coeur, qu'on puisse emprunter le masculin sous une déclinaison vaguement féminisée vite fait.
