What blows me away is how much of it is so obviously AI but people seem to just not notice. You do see it called out from time to time, especially on Lemmy, but in the wider Internet it’s much more common to see people just engaging with it.
Ah, if you need to build a .NET project that makes sense
Nuget is a the .NET package manager. Like npm or pip, but for .NET projects.

The People Who Know Aren’t SayingEnglish3·15 days agoWhile desalination does need a lot of energy it’s dealing with the waste brine that’s the bigger problem when actually planning one. You can’t just dump it back into the ocean without killing a huge swathe of marine life.

vithigar@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•'We're done with Teams': German state hits uninstall on MicrosoftEnglish91·22 days agoLiterally no one I work with likes Teams but we keep using it because that’s just what we do. Other options basically don’t exist simply by virtue of being either not Microsoft or not overwhelmingly the market leader.
I love the detail that she put “+ AI” on both sides of the equation so that it’s still technically correct regardless of what the AI stands for.

Yep, recent blog post about it:

I’m in one of the “certain regions” for carpenter.
The Windows version definitely does not open your default browser to download a new installation package which you then need to install yourself.

I’ve never had any issue with the lane assist in my Mitsubishi. It’s absolutely built as an “assist” and not something that will actually try to take control from you. It’s trivial to “overpower” it manually and turn out of your lane without signaling if that’s what you want to do, but does a perfectly reasonable job of steering on its own when left to its own devices.
That said, I wouldn’t be driving a vehicle new enough to have the feature yet either if I hadn’t been rear ended a couple of years ago and had my 2012 Lancer written off. :(
