Thinking that one or the other "side" isn't looking for control is quite refreshing to see.

So much hope in those youth innocence...

> The thing is: people quickly discover that even mediocre LLM-code with a mediocre LLM-review, is still better quality than what they hand wrote and hand-reviewed.

Emphasis mine.

I can't phantom some that bad at coding. Using such exaggeration void your comment.

Because it's well known that the data centers are essential for the survival of the species.

Now that we know that farms use a lot of water, we are clean to waste any lower amount of water.

Thank you!

No worries, coding is solved they said in February 2026!

Isn't that a good news!

Wow my dude, let's talk about YOUR engineering understanding hahaha.

Go talk to your LLM, you better have to...

Probably Rust, that's always Rust with this kind of comments...

I am going to be called on that one, but I have to call on your bullshit here. You didn't write this.

I think the article is focusing on the shortcuts.

We know already what's happening after decade of optional thinking: electing dumass Presidents, walking the same path than Germany about 100 years ago, cut scientific research, social nets, etc.

We know already what's happening with optional thinking.

Re:Emacs 31.1 RC1 is available on Monday August 17, 2026 @06:53PM (#49338802)
Emacs is SO bad,

That when I tried it, I was reading the best way to use it is to install plugins to make emacs behaves just like VIM.

Re:Understanding the Linux Kernel: The Scheduler on Wednesday July 01, 2026 @04:09PM (#48752454)
In their first article of the series:

>I’m not a kernel expert—I’m learning out loud. The goal here isn’t a deep [...]

So I think it's safe to say they didn't contributed to the Linux kernel.

Why are you posting this if you know it is of poor quality then?

It's certainly not because you are proud of yourself, it has been generated.

So I genuinely wonder why?

There is no nuance in 400%...
3.6 is too slow on my old rig for some reasons, so I went back to qwen3-coder.

I did try 3.6 on my main desktop. It was good, but I didn't see much differences than coder, so I am still using my old rig.

Local isn't new for me. I am still coding my stuff, but Qwen3-coder:30b on my old rig with a gtx 1070 16gb RAM does wonders for me.

I mostly use it as a google search if I forget a thing, or doing the boilerplates.

I am using a mix of a non harness chat for the reply speed, and opencode / vim-ai for my boilerplates.

$0.00 / month. That's the budget.

Are you saying that making a leaderboard of who is spending the most is going to be expensive?

They couldn't see that coming, but for sure they can predict how the future will be when it's time to sell their "visions" of the world.

Meanwhile, sheep's are going to believe and max their token usage with their own wallet. "You are so be left behind if you're not".

It's a mass psychosis. The only winners here are the hardware manufacturers, like nvidia for instance.

GCC down? Did the AI rotten your brain that much?

How can you come up with such non sense.

After 1 hour you asked the question, I am reading the replies and the conclusion is: no, they cannot.
No, I often sleep on top of my bed during the hot summer days. I also don't put myself under the blankets when I take a nap.

I don't know what TFA is talking about.

Also....

Maven doesn't have "preinstall, install, post install", or " build.rs" for rust, executing arbitrary code during the installation.

The code that's executing with Maven is in your pom.xml, not some hidden code from a transient dependency.

That alone is a major design flaw in both npm and cargo.

Java is boring, because it works. People don't like boring stuff. It's more exciting to play the Russian roulette on each install!

Re:Git Is Not Fine on Friday May 15, 2026 @11:58PM (#48156691)
Nothing to understand. It's the JJ spam post of the week.

A piece of software looking for a problem to solve.

Do you remember the TV ads where people were acting like imbeciles to sell you their junk products for 3 easy payments of 19.99?

I would like to see the same hate comments about Linux than the ones we would see if it was a Windows vulnerability...

Re:I Do Not Recommend Bitwarden on Saturday May 02, 2026 @04:48PM (#47990328)
It's the first time I see someone else with the same setup.

Each time I read about the monstrosity of an external company owning all my passwords, taking into account all the leaks and supply chain attacks these days... I feel good "self hosting" what could be the most sensitive information that I have.

When I was a kid, we've been told to be cautious with third party dependencies, that code can do anything and it's a risk to evaluate.

With the new generation of yolo NPM scripters, they simply don't evaluate the risks. They will even fight back telling you that it's the way of doing things.

In reality, it's the warning we learnt back then, that's the result of be mindlessly importing third dependencies without thinking.

In other words, the risks were always there, the new "modern way", let's put it that way, doesn't put the effort anymore.
