he sounds like an edgy teenager and he’s in control of billions in tax money. I miss a world without xitter.

this comment completely ignores that the model specs are proportional to the manufacturing cost

OOTL what does notepad++ have to do with that? Or they just like to be eccentric in their releases for marketing?

Right, like I mentioned, it’s a scale problem and how people feel about generated code. Abandonware have always been the majority of repos, because people don’t have time or interest to maintain most things they create. We just have more things being created now (whether they’re any good/usable or not).

Disagree. Most projects are never “done”. Whether that is defined by the user or by the users, there are nearly always things to work on. Maintainers just lose interest or don’t bother. This is as old as open source and it has nothing to do with LLMs, it’s only aggravated by it.

Hardly an issue with generated code. You could say the same about projects before LLMs were widely used for code generation: “most projects are abandoned within months of release”. The difference now is the scale and how some people feel about it.

du* - applogies hehe

it’s a bad thing. The lowest you have to pay for a pixel now is 999 EUR. I think I paid around 600 USD for my pixel 8, and it was already more than I’m comfortable spending on a phone. We should stop normalizing $1000+ phones.

don’t you guys pay your rent and buy food with github stars?

A lot of people prefer rounded to sharp corners, if given the option. And given that sharp corners are the most bland default for a UI, I’m not even sure how one can call rounded corners amateurish while defending sharp ones: if you put no effort in an interface whatsoever, you end up with sharp corners.

zero cal pizzas, finally

Reminder that “a coin toss” is only bad odds for problems with binary and equally likely outcomes. And that’s rarely the case for anything that an LLM is used for. A 50% chance of saving an hour of work a couple times a day are pretty good odds. If I have a problem which a candidate solution is easy to verify, it’s often more effective to let an LLM investigate it for some time before I do so, and only jump in if it fails.

There have been several little fixes I’ve done in minutes with an agent that would take me at least an hour to manually investigate, write a solution, test, and refactor. So yes, there is something to it, but you need to know how to use it. Keep arguing in a thread after noticing hallucinations is a clear sign the author doesn’t know how to use an LLM.

This. If you’re at a point that you’re arguing with an LLM, you’ve already lost. Just start a new thread with a different approach, don’t make an article about your inability to use an LLM.

That assumes Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron won’t have competition in the next few years, but that’s already not true with the Chinese CXMT and YMTC. And the more they drive the prices up, the highest the reward for a new competitor to get established. They have a few good years (for them) charging these prices, but it won’t last.

great, let’s do it with politicians
