LLMs have no sense of geography. They measure distances between parts of words, not distances between parts of world.

Thanks for the PSA. Uninstalled.

  2. Local models are not "ready yet". You still have to own decent hardware and it will not be the same level of frontier models. I am big fan of local first, offline and "unlimited usage" compared to paid solutions. But probably I have to wait few or several years to get to that point.

This is why tech companies are working hard to make sure you can never build your own computer again.

Thanks for this. I've been thinking about something like this as pertains to energy use. Which algorithm is the most energy efficient? I'm actually quite curious.

The current status? If you're considering doing anything serious with Unix, absolutely you should use Linux. No question. Don't waste your time with any BSDs.

But ... if you want to teleport back to the 90s and go back to an era before Linux took off on a rocket ship to universal dominance then the BSD are for you. You will find a much more curated experience when people thought that documentation mattered. It is the road less traveled.

It won't be the same as 2000 because back then I didn't spend a dime on those ridiculous startups that went bust.

Why is there a countdown?

I like the idea of not crediting the person who posted the bug but to the LLM that found it. People who find exploits using LLMs should never get a reward or credit.

$160K for a software engineer? I don't even get close to that number.

No, talking to itself is not reasoning.

Oh man! Exciting Soccer unlocked a memory from my childhood. The deep booming sound effects and speech synthesis ...

Ok, I was only making a suggestion which I thought might be helpful.

I just run CachyOS on my gaming desktop which is also Arch based. Works fine.

How did he do it without the Half-life source-code?

Microsoft knows who he is because he alleges they deleted his Microsoft account and flagged his GitHub. And he says he was "publicly humiliated" in a CVE so I assume his name was on it.

More vibe-coded trash.

Are we going to hear more Ay! than a Mariachi band?

> it more difficult to identify who to invite to join the priesthood.

How about this. Somebody forks the project and submits their patches to the fork . If the fork is successful (there are users actively using it), upstream can selectively go fish for the patches themselves. The maintainer of the fork eventually gets recognized.

Not ideal, I know, but building a reputation is meant to take time.

A few years ago I was in the process of abandoning Angular in favor of React.

I've gone back to advocating Angular because it has been making a major comeback. It's genuinely awesome now.

Ok yeah. Hope OP gets a job soon.

Not to troll but what is a "forced immigrant"?

I have to admit LLMs are actually quite useful at generating code for me, but I am experienced enough to know what I want. I use it as a next-generation autocomplete.

Look like my VW ID.3. I love it but a lot of people don't.

I'm curious to see how many issues an LLM can find for OpenBSD. Not knocking OpenBSD at all, genuinely curious to see if all the careful development can stand up to LLMs.

What software do you run on your desktops and laptops?

> If you multiply in base 18

Why would anyone be expected to multiply in base 18? Why 18? Where does it come from?

Now this is a good use of AI

Quit smoking 10 years ago. Best thing I ever did. I'm particularly inspired by articles like this:

According to the article I have 5 years to go till my body has completely recovered from the effects of smoking.
