    I believe you could use AI to proof-read your posts before posting them
    here. Here's an example:

    If so, you’re very wrong. AI is terribly shocking in a positive sense...
    but it’s hard to talk about this with someone if they don’t accept the basics.

    Recently some guy here asked me whether, if I use AI, I can still code
    myself (something like that). That’s like asking someone who has a car whether he can walk. It’s tremendously stupid... Neanderthal level.

    Quite weird and funny: people are like Neanderthals when it comes to AI,
    when it’s totally amazing.

    im not sure if you get that but its like someone sais quite rightfully
    some things (say in given projects or code) cannot go too simple and
    mentaial reductionist go "its lazy, its rude, go simple, simple simple "
    - when as i said not al things may go simple

    this mental reductionist generally make harm to world as often i think
    people try to mentally reduce more complex situations and which is worse
    - they succid in that often

    in the context of c it is hovever often seen it cant be done

    its not only in c ofc i some time 25 years a go spend on some philosophy
    group and as far as i remempber the situation in that domain was quite
    same as to type - some things cant be reduced

    mostly in real life (like buying.selling) people are used to reducing
    things down and find this simplification as an advantage not all world
    works like that some things can be simplified such way

    You can focus on the problem, writing it the best you can, and then just
    run what you wrote through the AI tool of your choice. Does it really take
    so much time and effort?

    There are upsides to that as well. By using proper English you'll increase

    its not about time it is about "context switching"...


    overally i think people exaggerate the mistypes - i would be probably
    90% same hard to understood if i would write proper english


    its becouse i just write more deeper c context dependant things or
    something like that is the reason some text are harder to understand

    still im like 100x easier to understod here when i write some thoughts
    on c compered to say hegel (very famous for bein totally not to
    understand though quite famous)


    i not compare myself to hegel ;c just im aware of fact that some text
    are herder to iunderstood by its nature - and what i say abould mental reduction is very true: people should more try to fit to less usual
    situations instead simplify it to common very low denominator

    if some insist that all go simple its hgettin also boring - so maybe do
    not come to thsi source of boredom (mental reduction) too much ;c ?

    its not about time it is about "context switching"...


    overally human brain works it way - especially when youre in some deeper thinking state

    for example i may add i noticed quite recently then when i code
    sometimes its like i got all my code 'actions' in 'cache' (barian cache
    memory) and coding is going fast end seamless

    different time youre like your brain cache is empty and all you get is
    like constant cache misses and coding goes like snail


    thats the example

    (when i write something i just cant watch the letters (except minimum)
    becouse it unfocuses me..and is mostly not worth it..i can somewhat
    adjust but there is some border line at to which point its worth it and
    where its not

    overally you exaggerate as i said its kinda delusio n that wilh mistypes removed it all so clean to read - imo its not..i for example when read messages here quite a number not quite understood - only look if its
    something there i can adhere to....not to stop very much and read into
    it to fully understood what someone has on mind - its normal situation

    so i suggest - scan some post what you understand and find that you may
    answer to it with some sense answer it if no go on, find something you
    can andwer..what can i say

    there are a lot of interesting topics ahead, but now as im said im
    overelly a bit weary and not quite focused on c..but i will be back
    maybe soon maybe later ;c

    i overally planed to code maybe to end of year (and if i code i
    generally open this group and post some things here) but i get slower
    feel im bit weary so i dont know as to plans yet ;c

    overally i could post on some pices of my 3d rasterizer and toying on
    some 3d shoter mechanics in 3d space - but as many here says this is a
    group on c and this may be not so much strictly related.. so you see
    keeping to rules makes potential boredom but it also decreases chaos so
    i m about some compromise here ;c

    (the fact is also my post on this 3d game shooter would not be on topic really(at least partially, and they would also not be answered as not
    many eople write / toy with 3d shooters) ;c

    If multiple attempts to persuade him to make an effort to write more

    You need to make your own music, fractals, and use a model in the

    So, either learn it yourself, our well, do you have to pay to use the
    AI? What happens when you run out of tokens?

    you seem to know not much on ai programming yet you say strong bullshit
    on it...


    no i dont pay any tokens use a free chat gpt it makes a termendous work
    quite free like usinggoogle back then

    obviously not all things go so easy even with ai..i noted there are some
    work that go really wel and fast but there are sme swamp places when
    work goes slow but maybe im weary..or maybe i use it slower weay

    coz in ai you may give it to produce larger pices of code or goin thru
    smaller ones..i often stay smaller ones and dont even test if it would
    run in bigger ones

    ai also has like his/her own habits - like it likes breaks the lines on
    short (i dont like it coz after you wrote a code then what wories you is
    often traversing up and down in files and i dont liek longer distances
    - she forgots it

    other kind of 'habit' is she not quite optimises code (untill said so)
    and she also dont quite splits code on smaller functions as i would do
    (until said so)

    aoverally besides its absolutely great


    (the paid version may be much better maybe but im quite shocked by free one..im also shocked many people ssem not know it as much as it could)

    hovever i got some observations how to go forward in such cases (and

    - do things carefully (thus sometimess slow)

    - increase cleannes

    it things become carefull and clean then its easier becouse smal changes become meaningfull and youre more focused to notice things

    if i notice things then i can slowly go on - but i still probablu
    couldnt say such things are easy to code ;c

    Thanks! I made the music myself playing with old MIDI code of mine. I

    kow its done? geometry of bitmaps?

    Well, its actually quite simple in a sense. A model in pose at the
    center of the scene. A wire frame unit cube. And a larger cube around it running one of my special fragment shaders. Also, it uses a background
    from an older fractal of mine. My frag shader just mutates it in real time.

    Fwiw, I think it used one of my Heavenly Visions renders for the main background. Basically, a neat way to plot IFS's using Julia sets.

    terrible problem for mental reductionist...

    note i once mentioned that opinion may vary who is a troll KT (imposing
    his rude mentally reduced views) or me(imposing more oryginal one)
    but honestly..the answer is maybe more clear ;c

    (note i mentioned this 'relativity' becouse some dose of relativity is
    worth an esteem..but it is if we speak more theoretical in practice
    the mental reductions go quite bad and no fun, so im only partial
    relativisc in fact here (my aopinions may yet change here also))

    terrible problem for mental reductionist...

    note i once mentioned that opinion may vary who is a troll KT (imposing
    his rude mentally reduced views) or me(imposing more oryginal one)
    but honestly..the answer is maybe more clear ;c

    (note i mentioned this 'relativity' becouse some dose of relativity is
    worth an esteem..but it is if we speak more theoretical in practice
    the mental reductions go quite bad and no fun, so im only partial
    relativisc in fact here (my aopinions may yet change here also))


    so how do you feel today keith Thompson pack of trolls..more low mind
    lame bulshit to produce on clc today?

    (sorry i know i shouldnt laugh of you, youre too lame)

    There was supposed to be a solution for that it but it failed to deploy:
    the grouplens protocol.

    Under grouplens protocol, the scores you assign to articles are shared
    with other users, so you can effectively express the concept of "don't
    show me what my friend Bob, also a regular of the newsgroup, doesn't
    want to see, but with a weight of 0.75 assigned to Bob's scores" ...
    or something like that; /do/ quote me with > > > but don't quote me. :)

    It may not be a good idea anyway because it encourages echo chambers.
    It seems like the protocol could allow a newsgroup to be fragmented
    into multiple factions who each only read their own posts.

    Is it really worth it? The number of posters isn't that high, we can all decide ourselves who we want to read. The problem is different here.

    True. I've never seen something quite like Keith Thompson.
