holoduke··on The RAM shortage is bringing back DDR4
In 5 years from now every device. Even your oven or washing machine has somekind of local LLM running for sensor reading and smart decision models. I can already think of quite some useful use cases for those devices. So I do believe that AI becomes magnitudes bigger than today. It's a logical step in our digital journey.
holoduke··on Why isn't the industry freaking out about DeepSeek 4.1 Flash?
That's only temporary till production meets demand again.

He doesn't ruin the cost of memory. Advances in memory size and speed are now in full speed mode. Expect drastic increase in the upcoming years. Big factories are in the making and planned. Gigalab in the US and many others in the east. Since 2010 we have computers with 16gb as being normal. Finally we are moving into a new era where the standard will be 64gb next year and 128 in 2028. Hopefully we reach 1tb in 2030.
holoduke··on Meta and Microsoft take steps to reduce employee usage of Claude AI
Talk to the emulator community. Huge leaps being made there. Or binary decompiling topics. Huge leaps there. There is more than web applications
holoduke··on Paramount Skydance has completed its $111B merger with Warner Bros. Discovery
Ai is the ultimate form of art made by humans.
holoduke··on Paramount Skydance has completed its $111B merger with Warner Bros. Discovery
But why Hollywood?

In 1 or 2 years AI movies will be better in everything. From acting , to camera work to environments to story telling. Check out the quality of some of work already out there. There is a massive shift going on. China is going full speed mode. The film industry will be reshaped. Warner Bros should have used those billions to purchase products like seadance. Otherwise they are out
holoduke··on A sustainable web career, for when all this blows over
Frontend development will be the first that will be completely replaced by agentic development where nobody needs to see any code at all. Its already possible and many companies are having this way of working quite succesfully. The quality is already better than 99% of what frontend engineers can achieve. Speed is just insane. I can create any ui. Whether it's web or platform specific. There are hardly any limitations. Frameworks are still useful. But I expect them to become less important. What remains important as a dev is system knowledge. Understanding of how systems are tight together. The principles of distributed systems, security, prompt engineering, agentic automation. And that kind of knowledge. Code syntax is from the old era. Maybe there is a niche for it. But not for the majority.
holoduke··on GitHub Actions Has Problems
Gitea?
holoduke··on Pop!_OS bans AI-generated code from much of its codebase
Doing that will put you put of the market. I am certain of that.
holoduke··on A 12-year sequence of telescope images of a star and four planets orbiting
It's harder to comprehend smallness. The journey to planc constant is longer than the size of our observable universe.
holoduke··on U.S. may have overthrown Venezuela due to chat with Grok
Same as Saudi Arabia. People there are still getting beheaded. And its government is under full control of the US. Same thing in Venezuela. Nobody cares about it citizens. Oil is what matters.
holoduke··on Pi 1.0
Can someone tell me what the real benefits are compared to just use warp with Claude?
holoduke··on GLM-5.3 and the spread of advanced cyber capabilities
It's impossible to ban them. I would eat my shoes if Australia really bans open ai models.
holoduke··on Explaining to business people why building software is still hard
On the other hand. If his tool does the job why not. If you asked a 90s engineer how javascript triggers millions of cpu instructions for just a few code steps he would call you crazy.
holoduke··on 9 Ads per Minute: FIFA Cup 26 – "the price of the beautiful game"
A bit of topic. But noaways even when having no time at all you can instruct your AI to setup DNS adguard at home and get rid of all (most) ads on any site or app. It took me literaly 10 minutes to set it up.
holoduke··on Fable 5 – Median thinking declined in August
Nah its because they cache and preprocess requests by dumb models and send them too often to another dumb models instead of the top tier model.
holoduke··on How to Write with an LLM
I would say from march this year.
holoduke··on Show HN: Craigslist for agent skills, curated by a human
Sorry to say that this probably has no valuable moat. And that is becoming an increasingly bigger issue for many companies. There is no longer the need for many services and products. There is some serious demand for expertise in the field of AI automation. But it requires experts with domain knowledge. Almost no companies have this. The end is near for those.
holoduke··on GPT-5.6 Luna vs. GPT-6 Astra: Is a $1.20 Model Good Enough for Code Review?
Must be a token burner setup. Nice if you really got it to work. Now also add business agents that come up with new features based on actual research. Your automated humanless company is almost there.
holoduke··on GPT-6 Astra, looped transformers, and hidden reasoning
I am sure every input send to openai is prechecked by a dumb model and then send to another one. They heavily tweak this to improve performance.
holoduke··on Private German rocket makes history, reaches orbit from European soil
No because of reduction of bureaucracy. ESA is the prime example of 1 engineer to 50 managers culture.
holoduke··on Can AI design circuit boards yet?
As long as you keep in the loop Claude can do anything. Question is can it do stuff in which you are not in the loop. For simple tasks yes, but not for complex ones yet.
holoduke··on Any Human Ever – One life, drawn at random from all who have ever lived
I found it very unrealistic that my girl from 2000bc somewhere in china decided to divorce after 3 years of marriage when she was 23.
holoduke··on GPT-6 Astra
This absurd marketing will hurt openai. Who is buying this absurdness. I mean it's a good model, but come on. It's not agi. Not even 1% yet.
holoduke··on GPT-6 Astra
The world is changing. Wont help if you keep stuck in the old world.
holoduke··on GPU World
Absolutely untrue. LLM will be the automation force of everything. It will connect and orchestrate our entire society. It will be a much bigger impact that any other revolution in the past. Our lives will be unrecognizable in 10 years from now.
holoduke··on CEO fired developers to make room for AI. Developers create open source AI CEO
Above is just AI slop. There is a good reason to be critical
holoduke··on CEO fired developers to make room for AI. Developers create open source AI CEO
Why are you using AI for your account to write responses. It's mega annoying. A reason to leave this place. Please. No ai
holoduke··on CEO fired developers to make room for AI. Developers create open source AI CEO
I really want to see a proper ai team that successfully replaced a bunch of people. I have not seen it yet. Only thing I hear is gold plated stories about the potential of agents running fully automated workflows without people touching a single lever. In the meantime I am using AI almost the entire day. I have to discuss these topics with managers that only use chatgpt and watch youtube videos from people disguised to promote their own crap AI products. All I can say is that AI is not good enough to replace entire teams. It can do some cool stuff. But automate entire workflows. Nah. It's just not gonna work.
