I felt the same. The movie didn’t speak to me, not even 2 % of all the impact that Midsommar or Get Out had on me.

But I don’t blame Hereditary itself. I have watched really really bad horror movies, forced by friends and family, and Hereditary has at least good acting… It’s probably that we simply enjoy other things.

I blame it on the fact that these paranormal horror movies tend to be relatively pointless, or their point isn’t really portrayed as well as they think it does. You can’t reflect on a deep philosophical thought if you know you are going to get jumpscared in a few seconds.

Having said all this, I must say the movie “Talk To Me” (2022) is one of the few instances of me enjoying a paranormal movie. Still has deep messages throughout the movie, IMO. Hopefully you’ll like it too.

I watched it. A fever dream. Honestly I don’t even think the director expected any more than that.

Also there is no casino algorithm showing you what big data knows will make you stay for a while.

In TikTok or instagram reels, you don’t follow people you like. You just watch stuff happening.

I thought conventionalcommits.org was very well known.

I made my company use it and now it’s so much easier to navigate git history. We also get automatic, humanly readable changelogs for free.

Yep, Joker 2 is terrible, IMO But, IMO, it already showed signs of no purpose in the first movie.

Good cinematography means nothing if the movie is empty. And the first one already made me feel like they were trying to sell me a concept that was impossible.

The second one doesn’t even have a concept. It just has depressing musical numbers. Any possibility of a good storyline is dumped so they can show more memeable joker reels.

So, to me, a terrible rating is completely justified.

It’s bad. If it was good, the story would have been pretty different.

Obviously some people will still like it. But even those will have to admit it’s an incredible mess, and it shows why no company wanted to invest in it.

It’s bad. It’s bad and we’ve been knowing this for months, as it premiered in some festival.

It’s so bad no distributors wanted any piece of the cake (because the necessary costs are astronomical).

Don’t worry guys, I’ll watch it.

Turns out that is your experience, and it cannot be extrapolated to the rest of the world.

In fact, my experience is actually opposite. Everytime I go back to Windows to do some task… Wi-Fi has trouble finding my access point, and when it finally connects (sometimes after having to reboot) the connection is simply not as strong. Oh, and some bullsh*t software got reinstalled and it even set itself up as launching-at-start-up, after I had to almost hack the OS to allow me to do that.

So, do I extrapolate to the rest of the world?

Did this woman do it on purpose? The judge seems to be pretty sorry.

People in 2021 had to go and do stuff, infected or not. That makes me scared that some day I might get charged for murder by pure chance that my neighbor got infected while I was buying my covid test.

Is that American hand writing? It reminds me so much of James Hetfield’s, and basically no one writes like that in my country.

That’s crazy.

I don’t get how people use social media without filters.

All I see is the communities I follow… Isn’t that what most people do around here?

AI doesn’t do feelings

How can I have a serious conversation with these annoying answers? Come on, you know what I am talking about. Even an AI chatbot would know what I mean.

Any AI chatbot, even “general purpose” ones will read your code and will return a description of what it does if you ask it.

And particularly AI would be great at catching “useless”, “weird” or unexplainable code in a repository. Maybe not with the current levels of context. But that’s what I want to know, if these tools (or anything similar) exist yet.

Thank you.

Of course, 100% reliability is impossible even with human reviewers. I just want a tool that gives me at least something, cause I don’t have the time or knowledge to review a full repo before executing it on my machine.

I just want a report that says “we detected in line 27 or file X, a particular behavior that feels weird as it tries to upload your environment variables into some unexpected URL”.

I don’t care if the solution is AI based or not, indeed.

I guess I thought it like that because AI is quite fit for the task of understanding what might be the purpose of code in a few seconds/minutes without you having to review it. I don’t know how some non-AI tool could be better for such task.

Edit: so many people against the idea. Have you guys used GitHub Copilot? It understands the context of your repo to help you write the next thing… Right? Well, what if you apply the same idea to simply review for malicious/unexpected behaviour on third party repos? Doesn’t seem too weird for me.

Yes, couldn’t be easier.

We are talking about one single notification per year that serves as a notification for the hundreds of KDE programs that you normally install on a Plasma desktop.

So, yeah, it’s pretty fair. And it’s free software, so you can fork it and delete those lines of code anyway. It’s KDE so they’ll probably even let you disable it at some point in the settings.

Victoria is way more technically interesting because it is truly one shot, all dialogs improvised, and literally in Berlin, no closed sets (mostly).
