aarjaneiro··on I post trained a model on Demoscenes
You're not really making anything. It's like if chess players sat down at the table, each pulled out a laptop, and just ran stockfish - it's simply not impressive at all...
aarjaneiro··on Cisco gives engineer unlimited AI tokens to rewrite legacy code
> He had the translation use browser integration to compare the new site to the old site automatically.

I imagine this is a luxury cisco will not have for validation

aarjaneiro··on CVE-2026-98432: Linux TCP Use-After-Free Risk and Patch Validation
Yeah seems you're right...

Luckily though, ListenConfig lets you override this https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/refs/tags/go1.27.3:src/...

aarjaneiro··on Programming Isn't Special
Good-looking, readable code is easier (and faster) to review.
aarjaneiro··on NASA’s Mars Sample Return mission is dead
"makes sense, it's financially unfeasible"

> Engages in pointless wars

aarjaneiro··on I Don't Like LLMs
Yeah but what about when you have to read code by others who didn't care for this? At this point, code comments have lost all meaning
aarjaneiro··on How accurate have Ed Zitron's AI skeptic predictions been?
> counterbubble

Gonna start using that one

aarjaneiro··on How I use LLMs to learn complex topics
These comments make me wonder if people were unable or unwilling to use search engines effectively
aarjaneiro··on Branchless Rust: Making a Filter 4x Faster by Removing an If
I really hope all these guns give up smoking sometime soon...
aarjaneiro··on Cloudflare OS: an open platform for agents, apps, and work
This "OS" label reminds me of ms with ".NET", a choice they definitely seemed to regret
aarjaneiro··on It's not empowering to hand off the details
> ensures that I'm in the driver's seat

This is why I'm still primarily using tab complete. Maybe will spin up an agent here and there to add tests or for repetitive work where I can say "follow the approach I just did for this one case across all remaining cases"

aarjaneiro··on Certificate Expiry for Hacker News.com
More of an FYI. Always preferred using it over news.ycombinator.com and happened to notice its expired.
aarjaneiro··on Write code like a human will maintain it
Nobody is reviewing this, right?
aarjaneiro··on I think I have LLM burnout
Nobody said you should? Some people merely enjoy programming more than engineering.
aarjaneiro··on The future of Flipper Zero development
Most dont :)
aarjaneiro··on You shouldn't copy-paste errors into Claude Code
I wasn't expecting the answer to be "because copy-pasting would involve too much thinking".

Some people are borderline afraid to touch their keyboards these days.

aarjaneiro··on The CEO of Mullvad is the main financer of the Swedish Örebro party
Is your buddy incapable of speaking on his own behalf? Im sure he's aware of the reputational damage he's caused your company by now...
aarjaneiro··on Reflections on software engineering in the age of AI
I've witnessed SQL executed with a where clause be wrapped in a function which then iterates over the result to re-enforce the where clause.

People need to read the slop they're throwing at reviewers.

aarjaneiro··on Don't verify email addresses by sending spam to them
Magnetic domain
aarjaneiro··on Prefer duplication over the wrong abstraction (2016)
Personally I've seen way more duplication as a result of AI in large codebases
aarjaneiro··on Bun has an open PR adding shared-memory threads to JavaScriptCore
> the PR description is entirely Claude.

Well, clearly more than just the description. Might as well be upfront about that.

aarjaneiro··on Excessive nil pointer checks in Go
This is more about a hard dependency which causes a function to early exit
aarjaneiro··on AI is potentially a Dunning-Kruger effect amplifier
I'm absolutely right.
aarjaneiro··on AI coding at home without going broke
Just don't vibe code?
aarjaneiro··on If you are asking for human attention, demonstrate human effort
"poisoning the well"
aarjaneiro··on Claude Fable 5
Or the hands not being wings
aarjaneiro··on Did Claude increase bugs in rsync?
> "Claude clearly made things worse" &emdash; the main claim

Even this report is full of claude-introduced bugs

aarjaneiro··on Can we have the day off?
No, you'll need to be on call to fix all the slop falling apart
aarjaneiro··on Rewrite Bun in Rust has been merged
Then why did you open the pr...?
aarjaneiro··on The AI zombification of universities
Sounds fair to me so long as students were aware going into the test that syntax would be graded
