The need for new words/terms as the antidote to bad software
I'll preface to say I'm not at all a programmer, so pardon me for saying anything stupid The increasing amount of slop is no secret, and but software as a whole, be it plugins or apps or even whole operating systems, has become increasing plagued by a set of kinda-unrelated problems that feel like they fall under the same umbrella. I'll keep it short, so practical issues of efficiency, privacy, security, and long-term support, and then ethical issues of being human-made. I personally believe that we're in need of novel, widespread terms to be able to describe the kind of software that in principle does not have certain traits. I attached the link because I believe the term "open source" is analagous to what I'm talking about here. Everybody has an idea of what it means and entails, but it also doesn't mean that everything has to strictly follow it to a T, because it's just a word at the end of the day. It's a pledge to the user to abide by principles of being "Open Source," and I'm saying that we need new words that similarly serve as principles such as that of, optimization, long-term support, being human-made, etc. (It's kind of like how we have terms like organic, free-run eggs, free range eggs, and of course you would end up with having a bunch of terms that dont mean anything at all, but i'm confident that a few will emerge as "standards" in the same way the term open source is.) This could go hand-in-hand with maybe making it common practice to at least disclose the development process when publishing software. In (science) research, we're beginning to see the implementation of "AI Disclosures" to detail all such usage, to be published with the paper. surely practices like these should be encouraged in software development as well. I'm sure there are (smaller) discussions on what exactly should constitute as "best practices" to the people that care about such things, but I've yet to see mainstream terms that go beyond only vaguely describing what we dont like

Experiences with Outlier
How is it going for you all working on projects for this platform? I’ve read that sometimes they ban you without even giving you a heads up, is that true? Also, I’d like to ask about the tests they give you for software projects before accepting you; are they actually very difficult? Do I need to have AI level problem solving skills or something similar to get accepted? How is the hourly pay working out? Is it truly hourly, and are deposits made weekly? Thanks for reading, everyone; I’m curious about remote work and want to get started. submitted by /u/ClarkKennedy929 [link] [留言]

The Em Dash Isn't the Tell — Your Comment Is
Two weeks ago one of my outdoor cats bit me. She's fine — healthy, pregnant, and deeply offended that I picked her up, but she needed flea medicine and I needed to confirm the pregnancy. (If anyone wants a kitten, I know a grumpy lady who has some.) My pinky swelled up, and typing went from "mildly error-prone" to "not happening." So I dictated this post. If you've ever looked at raw voice transcription, you know what that produces: one giant unpunctuated block with half the words wrong. My transcript literally claims "AI needed to put flea medicine on her." It was me. That's the kind of thing the AI is cleaning up. The ideas are mine. The argument is mine. The punctuation and clarification belongs to the machine, because the machine is better at punctuation than a transcript is. By the rules of the current discourse, you're now supposed to stop reading. That's the game, right? "Not reading this if it's AI-generated." "It has em dashes — slop." Let's deal with the em dash first, since it's apparently forensic evidence now. You can type one. Shift-Option-hyphen on a Mac. Windows-Shift-hypen on Windows. Writers were littering pages with them for a century before the first transformer shipped. Its little brother the en dash is everywhere too, and nobody has ever accused an en dash of being a robot. The em dash gets singled out for exactly one reason: it's a fast, cheap way to judge a piece of writing without engaging with a single idea in it. Zero effort, instant superiority. Remember that phrase — zero effort. It's coming back. Because real AI slop absolutely exists. Someone fires off one prompt, ships whatever falls out, never reads it, then farms for stars and upvotes. That's slop — not because a model was involved, but because no human was. Effort is the variable. The tool never was. Here's what the other end of the spectrum looks like. Hundreds of hours on a single project. I decide the architecture, the language, how it compiles, how it deploys. I fork the output

Aesecnryption demo site
I rebuilt aesencryption.net so text AES (128/192/256) runs fully in the browser - the key and plaintext never leave the page. The hard part is staying byte-compatible with common server-side AES libraries (mode, IV, padding, base64 output), so I ship copy-paste equivalents in PHP, Java, Python, Go, Rust, Kotlin and JS. Live tool (mine, free): https://aesencryption.net - feedback on the crypto choices welcome. My own site.

Can ChatGPT Really Predict the Stock Market? I Took Apart How It Actually Thinks to Find Out
Nephew saw a YouTube ad. Someone was selling a "secret prompt" for ₹199, claiming ChatGPT and Claude can analyze the stock market and place trades with 90% accuracy — no technical analysis, no fundamentals, just paste this prompt. He brings it straight to Uncle. The Ad 👦 Nephew: Uncle, I saw an ad on YouTube. Some guy was saying, "Use ChatGPT and Claude AI for stock market analysis, take trades with 90% accuracy. You don't even need to know technical analysis or fundamentals — just use this prompt and you'll get all the results." Is that actually possible? 👨🦳 Uncle: (laughs) Ah, here we go. This is exactly how a lot of scams happen — and honestly, it's rarely because of some clever new invention. It's because of a lack of understanding, and people treating these models as a magic black box. 👦 Nephew: So are they scamming us? Or genuinely fooling themselves too? 👨🦳 Uncle: Not exactly a straightforward scam, and not exactly genuine either. Here's the honest split: they're maybe 30% correct, and 70% wrong. 👦 Nephew: What does that even mean? 👨🦳 Uncle: I'll accept this much — there genuinely are AI models out there that can do a solid job predicting stock trends or running fundamental analysis, because that kind of prediction is heavily mathematical, numerical work. But — and this is the important part — ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini are not that kind of model. 👦 Nephew: Why not? It can literally write code. It can do math inside code. Why can't it just... do math for stock prediction too? I genuinely don't get it. 👨🦳 Uncle: Come, sit. This needs a proper, from-scratch conversation. We're going to dig all the way down to what these models actually are , and by the end, you'll understand exactly why ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini are the wrong tool for this specific job — not a scam exactly, but sold by people who never actually opened the box themselves.

How do you dedupe support tickets that don't share any words? Here's our messy attempt.
We build an internal helpdesk, and I want to talk through a problem we only partly solved — because I suspect a lot of you have hit it too, and I'd genuinely like to hear how you handled it. The most requested thing from our users was never "better ticket forms." It was "please make the duplicates stop." Here's the shape of it. A deploy goes slightly wrong at a 40-person company. Within ten minutes you have: a handful of chat messages : "login is broken", "can't get into dashboard???", "deploy looks weird" several error-tracker events (whatever you run — Sentry, Rollbar, an APM): TokenExpiredError ×2, a 401 spike on /api/auth , a 5xx spike on auth-svc a couple of emails to IT : "access token expired", "need login reset" Nine items across three channels. One root cause: token rotation broke in that deploy. Whoever's on rotation spends the morning proving that, instead of fixing anything. We wanted to automate the recognition step — "these are the same thing" — not the fixing step. This is the honest version: what we tried, the small thing we actually shipped, and the parts we haven't cracked. If you've built something similar, I'd love to be told what we got wrong. Attempt 1: rules and keywords (broke immediately) The obvious first cut: normalize ticket text, match on keywords and categories, merge on high overlap. It fails on the example above, and it fails structurally: "login is broken" and TokenExpiredError share zero tokens. The human on rotation isn't string-matching — they know a deploy just happened, they know what auth-svc does, they've seen this failure shape before. Rules encode none of that. Rule systems also rot. Every incident teaches you a new synonym for "it's down," and six months in you own a regex museum nobody wants to touch. Maybe you've kept one of these healthy long-term — if so I'd honestly like to know how. Attempt 2: embed everything, cluster by similarity (the one we didn't ship) The tempting next move: embed ticket text, cluster on cosine
