I personally find that I hate any activity in a context where I'm paid for it.

I used GLM 5.0/5.1/5.2 for some projects, and for me, the area in which they lag behind frontier models the most are user interfaces. They get really close to Opus when it comes to…

There is, for example, OpenCode Go subscription, which for $10 a month gives you a decently generous quota of GLM-5.2, among other models. And z.ai themselves also have subscriptio…

Author is from Latvia (and so am I). You do actually get carded for energy drinks if you look under 30. However, more relevant to the post, is that when you're ordering groceries o…

With the release of GLM-5, I would say that they are pretty much almost as good. Basically 90% as good as Opus 4.6 on most tasks for 20% of inference cost, and open weights.

There already are LLMs with open weights that are better at code than state of the art closed source models from a year ago. For now, you most people may have to rent the hardware …

>Perhaps with time we'll be able to run local ones that are 'good enough', but we're not there yet. Right now, we can get local models that you can run on consumer hardware, that m…

I'm not paying for an AI subscription to do my job in the same way I don't pay for the IDE I use. My employer does.

>Because they were trained for OTHER work! Not by choice though. Vast majority of people who get CS degrees don't want to be computer scientists. They want to do programming work, …

I'm using 4 monitors, two 33" and two vertical 22". It has nothing to do with knowing how to do shortcuts, but having to do them at all. There are plenty of instances where you may…

I have the opposite experience, the CLI users I see pretty much never use anything besides commit, push and pull, while GUI users tend to use more advanced commands since they can …

I find git reasonably understandable as long as you are using a GUI. When you have a GUI, every action you take provides you visual feedback, so it's way easier to understand the p…

It was counterproductive for me when recursion was taught with Fibonacci and factorials. They were literally the opposite of easy to understand for me, I had absolutely no idea why…

You don't have to hunt for rare examples like this, most multiplayer FPS games use client-side hit detection nowadays.

What I personally see in academic setting is that when recursion is taught, it's taught using examples where you would not want to use recursion. It's easy to understand why recurs…

Music, movies, tv, video games, books. Some trackers specialize in one type of content, some have everything. Finding URLs of private trackers is trivial in google. Getting an invi…

>youll end working anyway just to have something to do I'd never work if I didn't have to pay bills. Spending my limited time on earth doing something for someone else's benefit on…

There are. Google doesn't allow apps that block ads in other apps on play store (anymore, they were on play store some years ago), but you can always just download and install them…

Probably depends on what you mean by "arrays". If you use high-level languages like Java, you probably don't use arrays often, if at all, in almost all cases you use collections th…
