Even just one of the smaller models is good enough for the grunt work I use them for 90% of the time. Currently doing most of my home hobby projects with OpenCode Go and Qwen 3.7 P…

I think you're missing the point OP was making. He's saying it's profitable but not optimal, those who recognised that quickly outstripped the slave owners in wealth. I could ask y…

This reeks of the start of enshittification. Very doubtful it was a "test"

Who's at fault when it suggests feeding someone cyanide?

I'm working on moving as much as possible to self hosted options. Have forgejo, Authentik and Nextcloud set up so far. Slowly finding alternatives for things, I think my next goal …

I think it's awesome that AI is enabling this. I think the the future of software engineering is in helping make this kind of thing resilient and removing the fragility that AI gen…

Must have just been the ones I liked that died. Will have to go looking

I miss the decentralized web and phpBB forums. If you didn't like one community, it was super easy to find one you did.

I always liked reading about it in uni in the mid-late 00s. It made me feel smart in my OS tutorials when I could rattle off all the design choices and how they differed from Linux…

My observations match this. I can get fresh things done very quickly, but when I start getting into the weeds I eventually get too frustrated with babysitting the LLM to keep using…

Last place I worked had long running end to end tests that would take 30 minutes on GHA (compared to maybe 5 locally) on every PR. This is going to make that a very expensive endea…

Real mask off comment here, respect

Amazing that we can propagandise people for decades to accept cultural relativism and then expect people to get upset over this.

In an era where the working poor are struggling to buy groceries and pay rent, these clowns want government money to make a better chat bot. What a complete circus.

Yeah, had no luck getting windows tools running. I'm only an amateur mixer thank God, but I found this list a while ago and have been having mixed success here and there https://gi…

I've been full-time Linux again for about 12 months, gaming isn't my main problem anymore. I think the only thing I'm having a bit of difficulty with is trying to get Jedi Knight w…

I recently went back to full time Linux and the gaming aspect is fine with my RTX-3090. I don't really play anything like COD or Battlefield with all the invasive anticheat though,…

We use paper in Australia and generally have a result by the next day (2010 being an exception due to hung parliament). We also have a very strict chain of ownership and auditible …

Patents around printing are out of control. All the major manufacturers cross license everything from each other

The best disinfectant is sunlight. I'm similarly appalled by some of the behaviour after a certain political activist was murdered, but I don't want them to get banned or deplatfor…

I'm unsurprised by that. I'm really hoping it quickly improves now that more people are using it

Why would we defend the rights of someone that refuses to defend ours?

Great. Now let's see them enforce it.

Agreed. One of my mentors early on was a self taught engineer and honestly I'd trust him a lot more than some of the engineers with degrees

So did 4chan, god help you if you abused a cat
