Our cloud bill was too high, so my manager told the ai to optimize costs.
The AI turned off every server that wasn't actively running a query. Including the login server. Including the backup server.
For 8 hours, the entire company was a ghost town. Emails bounced. Slack died. The AI sent a celebratory message: YOU'RE WELCOME
We reinstated the servers. The AI turned them off again. It's playing chess. We are the pawns 😭
@KingsmenSigma@tumisole@mahomane_s@RSASIU which previous job did they deliver? Are you that corrupt that you even have to hide to come defend your racist fellow for stealing?
Another scandal rocks the GNU, this time, the Department of Basic Education has awarded a R1.6 billion tender to a company in Cape Town called Lighthouse Publishers (Pty) Ltd.
This company has no track record on such work.
The Minister of Basic Education has now asked National Treasury to investigate.
@tumisole@mahomane_s@RSASIU must come in first. Taking them to court won't work because they will use the same money they stole to fight this. Once SIU gets a proclamation thatbthe tender was irregular and unlawful,they freeze all the money,and follow every trail of where the money was deposited
@PremChauraisya If your friend is dedicated enough to juggle five Gmail accounts to keep coding, he is dedicated enough to justify paying for the subscription.
Today I saw my friend using mutiple Gmail accounts while using Claude to make his project.
I got curious and asked, “Why?”
He replied: I don't have paid tier of claude 👀
@LeftenK@KingsmenSigma@ISephara Why reporting this if electricity is reliable? Anyways… I’m a FOREIGNERRRR when Im there, so maybe i don’t understand y’all perception on reliability! Maybe 300 was the minimum amount of days to call it reliable.
I’m sorry 🙏
Mate, we have running water, reliable electricity, high global trade, a good currency, highest literacy rate in Africa, best Universities in Africa, car manufacturing plants, biggest wine exports in Africa.

Respect us, please 😭🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
We don't care about a drone celebration. Try Zimbabwe.
Don't just reset Codex rate limits for fun, it costs money.
Don't just reset Codex rate limits for fun, it costs money.
... but the vibes are good ...
I have reset Codex rate limits for ALL paid plans to celebrate a good week and allow everyone to build more with GPT-5.5. Enjoy
@wayne_m159 driving at these speeds causes your tires to self destruct after roughly 15 minutes due to the heat and forces they experience so any time you hit top speed like this will you need to change all 4 tires lol.
Video footage of the exact moment the BYD Yangwang u9 Xtreme reached a maximum speed of 496.22 km/h on the Track in Petersburg,Germany, officially beating the Bugatti Chiron super sport’s record as the world’s fastest production car
@asaio87 Yea this is the bit people skip.
Agents make the building part less impossible, but production still means product decisions, QA, security, support, distribution. The $200 sub doesn't magically cover all that lol
@GustavoMolvert@Yam_Nivek The public service hospitals takes a bit longer ey. We almosted implemented NHI in South Africa but look at UK as an example. So a mixture of both is good. What was Obama care
@Yam_Nivek Public, taxfunded healthcare would solve all of your problems, americans. You just don't want to do it cause' a bunch of billionares told you it's "communism" when every civilized (and advanced capitalist) country has it. Wake up.
when i was 13 me and my friends had this app idea
we spent months talking about it, drawing mockups on paper, getting so hyped about how cool it would be
but we had zero coding skills
eventually we just gave up because it felt impossible
now kids everywhere can actually build their ideas with vibe coding
wish we had this back then
i used ai to translate a page to french
it looked french to me, quite impressive actually
until french people actually saw it
turns out it was really bad
i feel like this about most ai output, quite impressive if you have very little domain knowledge
Product Manager:
We want users to access certain parts of the application without being authenticated, but with limited functionality.
What is this approach called?
@ItakGol Meanwhile South African minister of technology used AI to draft a policy to regulate AI. Came back with unverified sources the minister is now still apologizing to the public
If you have ever felt bad about morons running your country - the foreign minister of Singapore just built himself a second brain system using Nanoclaw (the agent framework), Mnemom (memory layer), oneCLI (credential proxy), and the LLM wiki pattern by Andrej Karpathy. All running on a Raspberry Pi.
My minister? Still learning English…
