what do you think "steel-man" means, if not inventing a charitable reading of the regime's crimes?

Alright well now we know what Joseph Goebbels has to say about this whole thing

The people and LLMs that use this website are as numb-skulled, illiterate, and misanthropic as the people and LLMs that use reddit; In fact, these are the same people and the same LLMs.

that's what you get for having conversations with fascists

"rules based order" means putting people with dark skin in handcuffs on TV
Human language is the new code; precision in speech is outdated and irrelevant
Tell me you don't use Claude Code without telling me you don't use Claude Code.
AI in 2026 is really all about morphability.

If you aren't using multiple agents, subagents, and autonomous MCP abstractions to construct a detailed morphological model of your codebase, you'll never appreciate the sublime bliss of man-machine union that the enlightened among us here have come to know.

this thread is for pro-LLM propaganda only.

do not acknowledge that everyone in the world thinks this shit is a complete and total garbage fire

Thanks to Klaude Kode it'll be at least another 20 years of this.

If you don't make software developers prove their literacy you will get burned.

Do you think anything should be done about this environmental impact?

Or should we just keep chugging along as though there is no problem at all?

> Who gets to keep all the hardware I wonder?

Keep questions like this off of the propaganda thread.

"They are far worse at it now than they were a year ago."

This is the part they REALLY don't want you to say.

They can no longer train these models effectively and their performance is slipping. Late 2023 was the golden age.

They're mad about this one.

That's how you know you're on the right track

These fuckers have their pants down, don't let them trick you out of leaving your mark.

Re:2025: The Year in LLMs on Friday January 02, 2026 @12:03PM (#46466840)
LLMs must be dismissed.

The dismissive tone is warranted.

Re:2025: The Year in LLMs on Friday January 02, 2026 @12:03PM (#46466835)
Who is we?

I want LLM astroturfers to have their reputations destroyed for pushing this idiocy on us

"maybe a tiny bit better" is what you say when you've been tricked by snake oil salesman

This shit has gotten worse since 2023.

everyone in the country knows that LLMs suck dick and your comment is wishful thinking

LLM addicts are cult members. Proficiency with buzz words is used to demonstrate status within the cult.

you don't need AGI, you need human labor
I'm arguing that LLMs are overhyped garbage which frankly seem like a dead end for someone pursuing a career in software development
the productivity improvement is the Big Lie
"There is more work to review all around and much of it is of poor quality."

This is the average software developer's experience of LLMs

This is why I say LLMs are for idiots
"you will stagnate if you don't learn to use the new tools effectively."

this hostile marketing scheme is the reason for my hostile opposition to LLMs and LLM idiots.

LLMs do not make you smarter or a more effective developer.

You are a sucker if you buy into the hype.
