> On August 5, 2025, Stein-Erik Soelberg (“Mr. Soelberg”) killed his mother and then stabbed himself to death. During the months prior, Mr. Soelberg spent hundreds of hours in conversations with OpenAI’s chatbot product, ChatGPT. During those conversations ChatGPT repeatedly told Mr. Soelberg that his family was surveilling him and directly encouraged a tragic end to his and his mother’s lives.

it's amazing, we've replaced the FBI with a machine that can push mentally ill people into violence. We no longer need to spend agent time radicalizing people into building bombs, buying weapons, etc.

Thank you OpenAI for helping us keep the government small :laugh:

The entire analog section of my Mackie ProFX 12 V3 mixing console pans ever so slightly right, when the controls are dead-center. Nothing I've done, in as far as cleaning maintenance has fixed it, so I think its a more fundamental permanent problem that likely requires physical electronics skills beyond my own. So I can either go hunting for another small 12-channel console that does ultimately what I want, which is feed at least three stereo pairs, and one phantom-powered XLR to a pair of XLR-connected studio monitors, and provide buses of all this to/from the computer. Or I can simply do what drivers do when their cars pull to the right. Just keep the wheel a bit left. I can set all the pan controls on all the channel strips to what sounds like center, as opposed to what feels like center with the de-tent.

„Oficiálně – například v otevřených přiznáních velkých počítačových firem – dnes AI píše čtvrtinu až třetinu veškerého nově vznikajícího programového kódu. Ve skutečnosti to je pravděpodobně více, možná mnohem více, protože většina programátorů má pochopitelně motivaci nepřiznat, kolik práce za ně AI dělá,“ píše Petr Koubský: denikn.cz/1930468/umela-inteli…. Mně tahle cifra furt nesedí, vůbec. Kolik kódu zhruba generujete přes LLM? (Za případné sdílení díky.)

Umělá inteligence v okamžiku bilancování: trochu sen, trochu noční můra

Na přelomu roku se tématu umělé inteligence nemůžeme vyhnout. Bude tu s námi na každém kroku, stejně jako byla loni.

třeba u nás ve vývoji OS je to pořád málo, protože se stejně 70-80 % času tráví hledáním řešení a domluvou jako to udělat a jen 20-30 % psaním kódu. Problémy jsou u nás celkem komplexní a požadavky na optimalizaci velké. Ale v aplikačním vývoji v jasně zdokumentovaném prostředí (třeba různé BI aplikace na platformách MS) se dnes už téměř výhradně vibecoduje a prý to celkem funguje.

@liberloebi Dito – das, wo die Deutschen rutschen. Ich sage aber: "A gutn Rosch"¹. Tut weniger weh (warum sollte man sich auf's Glatteis führen lassen?) – und meint "Rosch Ha-Shanah", den "Kopf des Jahres"; also "ein gutes neues Jahr! 🤗 Komm gut rüber, knallen können die andern 🤪

In diesem Sinne: Nicht "Hals- und Beinbruch", sondern "Hazloche un Broche"¹ – Glück und Segen!

¹ aus dem Hebräischen, über's Jiddische (beides)

Talk of strange software problems reminded me of the strangest problem one of our projects at work ever ran into, in production. The application was slow on Wednesdays, but only if it rained.

Here's a hint: The database was restarted around midnight every day. This was a long time ago.

The explanation involved a mother with a child that went to some early morning thing on Wednesdays and when it rained, the mother drove the child. Which meant that the mother arrived later at the office than usual. Which meant that she didn't call up her favourite reports first thing in the morning. Which meant that the database didn't cache the execution plans that were "good for everybody" apparently but the ones optimised for some other random dude whose execution plans were lousy. And so the database got off to a bad start on Wednesdays if it rained.

I don't know how they ever figured this one out. What a nightmare. It ended up in our internal Oracle database training for many years. These days, almost everybody uses PostgreSQL.

I can't do it myself (Motorola windows software is completely screen reader and accessible) but I know several people who have used those for analog and digital UHF nodes. That goes for the 750, 1250 and 1550. A friend has a CDM-1550 putting out exciter power to get Allstarlink to his repeater, where there is no internet access. The radio is picked up by a dedicated receiver connected to the controller. Not the best way to do it, but it sounds pretty good.

Hilarious Indonesian song (in a bluesy genre) about corporate greed and corruption. Great animation too
