donperignon··on SynthID – A tool to watermark and identify content generated through AI
I am not sure that text watermarking will be accurate, I foresee plenty of false positives.
donperignon··on Updates to Consumer Terms and Privacy Policy
Too late.
donperignon··on Interactive map of Paul's first century travels in Roman world
let me tell you something, when you ask: "What motivated you to make this? It’s not entirely clear to me from looking over more of your site. Seems like a lot of effort unless you and your family are believers."

you are projecting yourself into other person. that is the opposite of empathy. for YOU is a lot of effort. for YOU is only valuable for "believers" (whatever that even means) for YOU also includes family believers....

dont you see? if you dont, no problem i understand. i just wanted to explain to you why are you downvoted, that's all.

donperignon··on Interactive map of Paul's first century travels in Roman world
dont want to be rude, but your question shows how narrow your vision of the world is.
donperignon··on Interactive map of Paul's first century travels in Roman world
you dont need to be a "believer" to have interest in your culture and history. what we are in the west, our philosophy our way to see the world has been shaped directly from the ideas of people like Plato, Socrates and Paul.

its probably the most important figure of the Christianism just after christ himself.

Corporate bullshit culture. Hell on earth. If you have worked in one big tech organization then you know.
donperignon··on A German ISP changed their DNS to block my website
They are. Spanish organizations , the c-suite is always there by nepotism
donperignon··on A German ISP changed their DNS to block my website
Ah telefonica… that’s Spanish, same company that every weekend blocks cloudfare in order to “avoid” football piracy. They don’t believe in laws, well they believe that laws are for the plebs not for them, the elites
donperignon··on What makes Claude Code so damn good
Because it’s embarrassing, and probably nobody understands why this works, depending on such heuristics that can completely change in the next model is really bad…
donperignon··on What makes Claude Code so damn good
Personally gemini has been giving me better results. Claude keeps trying to generate react code even when the whole context and my command is svelte, and failing constantly to give me something that can at least run, gemini, on the other hand has been pretty good with styling, and useful with the bussines logic. I dont get all the hype around claude.

Cringe.
donperignon··on 4chan will refuse to pay daily online safety fines, lawyer tells BBC
spain block CF every weekend to try to avoid football piracy. crazy, but its happening and nobody cares.
donperignon··on What is going on right now?
this is a symptom of larger issue. some people are just proxies to other entities. before it was stackoverflow, now they channel the responses from the LLM. this people will be the ones losing their jobs, they are simply not adding any value, for me is not that developers will suffer, but this type of developer will be gone soon, and let me tell you, if i want to ask chatgpt i go to openai, i dont need anyone to type for me and act as a human but replying with a bullet point list full of emojis.
donperignon··on AWS CEO says using AI to replace junior staff is 'Dumbest thing I've ever heard'
"We have always been at war with Eastasia"
donperignon··on Universal Tool Calling Protocol (UTCP)
It’s called experience. Never say i know everything. I know this is hype nonsense that’s all. Thank me later.
donperignon··on Universal Tool Calling Protocol (UTCP)
good job! 3k github stars for you sir!!!
donperignon··on Universal Tool Calling Protocol (UTCP)
nah, i am too old, i already know that this is not useful and it will generate security issues in the short term.
donperignon··on Universal Tool Calling Protocol (UTCP)
I have the same feeling as 2010-2015 with the js ecosystem craziness. These half baked ideas. Please we need to stop, we don’t need extra layers of abstraction and tooling that is not really solving any problem, it’s just ego tripping to create something and to get GitHub stars.
donperignon··on AGENTS.md – Open format for guiding coding agents
Pretty advance stuff. Vibing is definitely a difficult skill to learn.
donperignon··on Modern CI is too complex and misdirected (2021)
2025 and Jenkins still the way to go
donperignon··on AGENTS.md – Open format for guiding coding agents
If the context is not good for a Llm is also not good for a human. All this magical nonsense that is blooming around AI is tiresome, it needs to stop. Programming is not tarot reading or a slot machine. We cannot leave the security and robustness of our systems into such heuristics.
donperignon··on AI is predominantly replacing outsourced, offshore workers
Yes, I agree. And it is not that AI is any good, but those outsourcing shops are most of the time not adding any value, all the contrary takes time to babysit them. Some of this even look like an elaborate scam, someone in the organization launder money through this companies somehow, otherwise I don’t understand how they are useful. Obviously there some good ones, but in my experience is not the norm.
donperignon··on Dokploy is the sweet spot between PaaS and EC2
I found just plain docker swarm better, or if you like gui’s then portainer is very good
donperignon··on Igor Babuschkin, a co-founder of xAI, has announced his departure
This message doesnt make any sense.
donperignon··on Why does AI feel so different?
It’s the first revolutionary technology that his first goal is to make money for VC investors instead of really change the world, the perceived benefit for society is just a sub-product of the ponzi scheme behind those VC firms.
donperignon··on The current state of LLM-driven development
Do you have an entry in your CV saying: proficiency in googling? It difficult not because it is complex, it difficult because Google want it to be opaque and as harder as possible to figure out.
donperignon··on The current state of LLM-driven development
Thanks. So the skill is figuring out heuristics? That is not even related with AI or LLM. But as I said is like learning how to google, which is exactly that, try and error until you figure out what Google prefers
donperignon··on The current state of LLM-driven development
But give an example? What did you do that you consider a difficult skill to learn?
donperignon··on The current state of LLM-driven development
I usually work with containers for repeatability and portability. Also makes the local env closer to the final prod env.
