    Sorry for negativity, but it wouldn't hurt to put some qualifier in the title, like, "Pi agent". So people, not interested in that theme can avoid your article. Thank you. I was ex…

    You don't need that many with Deepseek. The easy jailbreak is to provide an excessive character sheet that states that it's a real person, not an AI. And make sure that your charac…

    You can find a number of benchmarks with similar results, but I really like this one[0]. I didn't check all algorithms for differences, but just looking on mandelbrot bench - both …

    > GC languages are slower This is not necessarily true. It depends on a language, e.g. Go is slow, Nim[0] is extremely fast with conventional GC and slightly faster with ARC/ORC[1]…

    I'm just too used to how parsing works in Zsh. For bash and sh, there is indeed should be a semicolon.

    Why take a perfectly readable if-statement and turn it into something, 99.9% of people would need to lookup. Concise != better. You can make it one line with: [ -z "$1" ] && { echo…

    Large companies are on the path of replacing people who are bad at coding, with systems that are emulating humans who are bad at coding. Coding has been solved in the sense that, p…

    Apparently, from what I usually see, they start a completely new project every couple of days. Some revibe their older projects from scratch, with "better" prompts (surely that was…

    Why do you use a VPN regulated by your government? That really limits its usefulness.

    Discord has an option to login with qr code. And it's very often used maliciously to steal accounts.

    Good sentiment, wrong target. I took some liberties to fix the beginning: > If you don’t know what AI is, imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever. The boot is made of shit …

    Is there any way in Go to selectively turn off bounds checking for a block, function or module? E.g. in Nim I can just do: proc littleEndian(b: openarray[byte]): uint32 = {.push bo…

    What, you expect them to care about security? If that was the case, it would've been very ironic.

    I see shell as an instrument through which you use other tools. In that sense, vi feels much more like a shell, because you have to use other standard unix programs with `:.!` for …

    Maybe it's me who's weird, but I find animations as much worse - it's basically pointless and wastes slightly more time (even when program is fast enough!). The interface without a…

    Then it's probably small enough - where you don't need a help of AI, and should do it yourself. My position is that AI could be useful to find the potential places for these change…

    You can't. You must prove it. And I don't mean that you need a rigorous scientific proof - that would obviously be too hard to do for every single function/library/program. Human d…
