@aescling @coriander the whole idea behind Microsoft Copilot is to make work which happens on a computer accessible to people without training or experience, so companies can hire people without training or experience
it’s being used to eliminate some positions entirely, sure (get rid of secretary who writes your emails by having computer write your emails), but no CEO wants you to just be able to type “make money” into a computer and get money, because that weakens their own position
they want making money to be restricted to people like themselves, who have the resources to employ others in menial tasks, while preventing the people engaged in those tasks from having any connection with the value created by their labour
damp dykes
@aescling @coriander execs do not want to have to do everything themselves, they just want to be able to hire unskilled workers to do tasks which formerly required skilled workers, because it means the workers lose their bargaining powrr
@aescling @coriander no, the hope is to make human labour more replaceable (not the same thing)
@coriander well, really the reason why it’s getting shoved in everywhere is because we have monopolistic and value-extractive tech companies who don’t have to actually please customers to sell product
@coriander but what if they add an ice level
honestly feeling the new zayn more than the new billie rn
anyway an L·L·M would never give you this code and if it did you wouldn’t trust it
apparently the answer if you want to limit yourself to v6 in theory is to do the same thing but tarball the temporary file with pax and then read out the modified time in list mode with -o 'listopt=%(mtime=%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)T'
if you want to limit yourself to v6 in practice (nobody actually implements listopt), same thing but manually parse the tarball
if you were wondering, apparently the answer is
if test ! -f build/.mtime; then printf '%b' '\n' > build/.mtime; fi; touch -r "$FILE" build/.mtime; TZ=UTC0 diff -u build/.mtime /dev/null | sed '1!d;s/.*\t\([^ ]\) \([^ ]\).*/\1T\2Z/'
(replacing \t with a tab character)
BUT this requires version 7 of POSIX
BUT it should still work in e·g Macintosh even tho they’re not strictly conformant
“chatgpt how to get the last modified time of a file using only posix commandline utilities”
how much you wanna bet ChatGPT is trained on GNU utilities and the things it suggest do something entirely different on BSD‐based platforms like macOS
« Using OpenAI's ChatGPT API, iTerm2 can now write commands for you, interpret the output of commands, and guide you towards a goal. See the AI section below for details. » iTerm…
me when major united states corporations decide to tie their business model to it: 
this company seems sus; i sure hope that no major united states corporations have decided to tie their business model to it
“the first responsibility of any system is to sustain itself” factoid actualy just statistical error. average system does not sustain itself. nationalism georg, which posits an end to history and sustains itself across 10,000 governments, is an outlier adn should not have been counted
the only game that you could make an argument that the zelda timeline was relevant for was hyrule warriors
very funny to me that nintendo created the zelda timeline as a marketing stunt for skyward sword and then placed skyward sword at the beginning so the timeline does not even matter
more software library readmes need to start with the line “DON’T LIKE? DON’T USE!”
