  • Based on this graph, and this graph alone, guess at what time I completely blocked OpenAI crawlers

  • It's best to use either Cloudflare (best IMO) or Anubis.

    1. If you don't want any AI bots, then you can setup Anubis (open source; requires JavaScript to be enabled by the end user): https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis

    2. Cloudflare automatically setups robots.txt file to block "AI crawlers" (but you can setup to allow "AI search" for better SEO). Eg: https://blog.cloudflare.com/control-content-use-for-ai-training/#putting-up-a-guardrail-with-cloudflares-managed-robots-txt

    Cloudflare also has an option of "AI labyrinth" to serve maze of fake data to AI bots who don't respect robots.txt file.

  • builder.ai has been tricking customers and investors for eight years – selling an advanced code-writing AI that, it turns out, is actually an Indian software farm employing 700 human developers

  • It's not true, you can check this article debunking this claim written by Gergely Orosz (Pragmatic Engineer Blog) : https://blog.pragmaticengineer.com/builder-ai-did-not-fake-ai/

    The racism against Indians is so normalized, trying to discredit and dehumanize Indians, it's horrendous! Be objective and have some empathy...

  • Devs gripe about having AI shoved down their throats

    Jump

  • The software engineer acknowledged that AI tools can help improve productivity if used properly, but for programmers with relatively limited experience, he feels the harm is greater than the benefit. Most of the junior developers at the company, he explained, don't remember the syntax of the language they're using due to their overreliance on Cursor.

    Good luck for the future developers I guess.

    companies that've spent money on AI enterprise licenses need to show some sort of ROI to the bean-counters. Hence, mandates.

    Can't wait for AI bubble to pop. If this continues, expect more incidents/outages due to AI generated slop code in the future.

  • Handled a ThinkPad today. What distro should I go with? Ubuntu? Arch?

  • Unrelated but relevant advice: Is this a refurbished laptop?

    1. Make sure to run Lenovo Diagnostics software; you can get it from official Lenovo website and check for any hardware issues during the stress testing.
    2. Check if BIOS password is removed.
    3. Test for memory RAM errors: disable secure boot in BIOS, then run Memtest86 test via a bootable USB to check for any memory errors.
