“Falsehood flies, and truth comes limping after it, so that when men come to be undeceived, it is too late; the jest is over, and the tale hath had its effect: […] like a physician, who hath found out an infallible medicine, after the patient is dead.” —Jonathan Swift

Glad you liked it! I know Lemmy can be short on in-depth OC, so I tried to pull from my small pool of specialized knowledge. Maybe other people will see it and do the same for their small but in-depth field of knowledge.


“Business owners deserve the profits they make because they’re the ones taking on risk.”
“No, no, not like that!”


“Shaheds have a pre-programmed kill limit.”
But how? The evidence is right there.


Two things:


I have an excruciatingly hard time believing anyone who maintains a legacy codebase is going to look at a brand-new Java extension and say “Yup, that’s the basket we want to put all our eggs in” – compared to a robust, well-tested adjacent language that has vastly more benefits. If an organization is already extensively changing their legacy codebase to comport with some fledgling Java extension, they may as well just port to Kotlin.


OP, your documentation on your GitHub is unreadably sprawling, and despite that, you only have one tiny section addressing Kotlin, the most blatantly obvious answer imaginable to nearly everything you’ve created here (the response reads like it was generated by an LLM, just saying):
Q: Is JADEx trying to replace Kotlin or Java?
A: No.
Key Point:
JADEx does not aim to replace Java; it simply extends Java, making it safer and more expressive while staying fully compatible with existing Java code.
This really addresses absolutely nothing about why someone would use JADEx over Kotlin when they’re already willing to use non-default Java. IntelliJ can convert existing Java code to Kotlin code. I agree constant by default is nice, but it’s hard to imagine, weighed against Kotlin’s benefits, that it would get someone to stay on Java (especially some fledgling extension of it) if they really want null safety.


The open-access study in question.
Cuttlefish are cephalopods (cephalopods are a class within the mollusc phylum), as are squids, octopodes, nautilus, etc. As octopodes have demonstrated high intelligence, this research is welcome and really cool but, to me, unsurprising.
Project member here to confirm these are the rules for the PCSX2 server; we don’t want our competition getting a foothold in our turf.


Exactly. If you’re too stupid or lazy to adequately vet what your LLM puts out yourself, it shouldn’t be somebody else’s job to wade through the sewage you’re producing. You either shouldn’t be using one or, if you can’t do your job without it, you shouldn’t have that job.

Extremely valid point, and I forgot to bring this up: I read the NYP article (god help me), and I could find no evidence of that claim (which surprises me NJ.com cited it for that). In fact, there’s even counterevidence within the Post’s article:
Some Goya owners have also asked the board to present a motion to remove Unanue as CEO because he’s been using the company to promote his political views, sources said.
“More than 50 percent of the shareholders do not want Bob to be the CEO,” a Goya source said. “All these political statements that Bob is making is dangerous for the company and for us personally as owners,” this person added.
“It will hurt the Unanue name and company if he continues,” a second Goya source and shareholder said. “He should be thrown out as CEO. I think it’s really hurting us.”
In an interview with The Post last week leading up to Friday’s vote, Unanue acknowledged that his job may be on the line.
“I’m attacked by my own family” he said. “I could be fired tomorrow … whatever. It’s touch and go.”
As The Post exclusively reported last year, Unanue narrowly escaped losing his job when he nixed an effort to sell a minority stake in the company to a private equity investor that would have brought in a non-family member CEO for the first time in the company’s 85-year history.
It’s still possible that there’s some other source describing this alleged restriction, but I don’t know of it.
Oh, hey, the shithead who caused me to boycott Goya apparently got the boot last year. Too bad Goya waited five too many years; I’ll be keeping my business elsewhere indefinitely.
“Yabba dabba doo” is actually a venomously offensive slur, so “fuck” was censored at the last minute to keep the meme just under the swear budget.


As noted in the article, yes:
Iran’s nuclear programme is one reason Israel and the U.S. have given for their current attacks on Iran, arguing that it was getting too close to being able to produce a bomb, despite Trump saying in June that U.S. strikes had obliterated the programme. The IAEA has said it has no credible indication of a coordinated nuclear weapons programme.


Welp, you heard it here first, everyone: some rando on the Internet says without evidence that the chief of the IAEA is wrong, so there’s no 60% uranium (different from “weapons of mass destruction” on which the IAEA agrees with you, in case you didn’t read the article or even the headline).


Ugh, you fucking nerd sniped me, OP. Now I have to spend the next 20 minutes learning about this bullshit, and I hate you!
At least “product” is honest framing: it’s passionless, mass-produced, hyperpalatable garbage sold by an international megacorp. I genuinely prefer a CEO saying that over pretending to care or personally enjoy it.


Upfront: Here’s the Administrators’ Noticeboard discussion.
Okay, this one apparently slipped under my radar, albeit it seems like they’re pretty small and only started in 2022. Here’s their 2025 report.
It seems like their limited focus is on using LLMs for interwiki translation; to what extent its paid editors are capable of that, I have no idea. We maintain a list of paid editing companies here (usually undisclosed against policy).
OKA asserts:
For example, articles in topics such as Science, technology, engineering, and Finance are lacking compared to topics such as History, Geography, and Humanities.
I have no idea how they reached this conclusion or how they think they’re qualified to translate anything given the random “totally not a Central European language” capitalization of words like that.
Per 404:
A job posting for a “Wikipedia Translator” from OKA offers $397 a month for working up to 40 hours per week. The job listing says translators are expected to publish “5-20 articles per week (depending on size).”
20 for any reasonable-size article could not adequately be vetted by one person in an 84-hour work week, for context, and that’s $9.90/hour at 40 hours. (edit: wait, sorry, I read that as $397 per week; $397 per month would be < $2.50/hour. What the fuck.)
Overall, before reading the discussion, the people at OKA seem like disruptive morons.
Edit: Into the discussion we go:
Cmon man, the training guide instructs translators to create multiple email accounts to get around LLM usage caps… — ExtantRotations
…yes, and? — 7804j [OKA founder]
Jesus christ. 🤦
Edit 2: 7804j just cannot stop themself from transparently using an LLM to participate in the discussion.
Edit 3: “we ensure they are above the minimum wage in the countries where the editors reside” oh my fucking god
Specifically a cranky baby, which is hilarious. “Maybe mommy’s milk will settle you down” is my interpretation.
