@notnullptr i think asking about the sentience/consciousness of an LLM is meaningless insofar as we cannot define the meaning of "consciousness".

@BrodieOnLinux but yes, i believe the flathub decision to ban software that uses LLM generated code is a moronic, mostly political, and mostly unenforceable, thing to do.

@BrodieOnLinux ...almost always ends up with subpar, extremely verbose, yet full of shortcuts, code. and it is quite questionable whether i'd wanna use vibe coded software at all, at least for now.

I've just realized what ARM64X and imo this is the nastiest PE extension Microsoft has ever shipped
it's literally the most horrific fat binary mankind has ever invented because it contains two types of binaries one of which is a horrific hack:
- native ARM64 code with ARM64 ABI
- hybrid ARM64EC code which combines:
+ native x86_64 code
+ native ARM64 code gated with special relocation types, using a different ABI that mimics the Windows x86_64 one

F TIER KEYNOTEMAX: Jensen ComputeX presentation was one of the worst keynotes he has done. He announced nothing new on the AI datacenter side, and he only announced Windows on NVIDIA ARM CPU which the transition will not go work unlike Apple transition from x86 to M1 ARM.
The NVIDIA laptop chip is already delayed by 6 to 8 months from its original expected launch window. During development, the high-speed connection between the Nvidia and MediaTek parts caused so much interference that the video output was completely broken,
Laptop makers are reportedly being told definitely not let anyone turn them on or run benchmarks. That screams "immature hardware."
