The thing that made me the most sad was that nobody cares about narrow screen phones like my iPhone SE
I have an RTX 4060 12gb vram. Qwen3.6 35b. I stopped paying for Github Copilot. But I wouldn't say I replaced frontier models with a local one. I still have some dollars in my openrouter when I need to. Also to get interactive agentic coding speeds I need a high tps. So my quant is very small. And I would say a coding harness that is fully extensible is a must to create fully custom workflows tailored for low specs. I use pi (not perfect, still found some hard coded, non-extensible parts)
> Did you even read it?
Did you? That is the issue we have. We can't know for sure that you even read your own article, since it has all the hallmarks of LLM generated content. It's embarrassing.
It did more than clean it up. It stained it completely.
It hasn't. TLS was not needed until recently. Non-TLS sites used to show up in search results. TLS was not mandatory at all. Also ISPs often provided users with a free webspace. So I could just send 1 html file to my host without much technical knowledge and I had a website that people could visit.
I had to go check. You're right:
https://gitclassic.com/golang/go
Made me chuckle. Then when I click it it doesn't explain why it is declaring it unmaintained. Pretty insulting. Not a good user experience at all.
Yeah, it's quite bad. Just some of the classics:
- "Why This Matters"
- "That's accurate, but it's only half the answer — and the less interesting half"
- "this isn't an edge case. It's routine."
I'm at the point, I would just rather read something somebody actually wrote even if it's not grammatically perfect and has lots of spelling mistakes.
Not scaling and high latency sound like a skill issue, not a PHP issue.
For me the number has been closer to 80% (my interestes/categories have been, foss, software dev, high tech specialization / academic work).
This is not surprising because I remember looking at the stats, females accounted for 2% of open source developers. And it was 7% female software devs (non-oss included, work etc). These stats are a few years old. I wonder if we can still find stats about cis-women in FOSS. Have the stats increased? Or is it too much of political hot potato to gather such stats?
How many males are naturally fascinated with computers? I know I was. Therefore it makes sense that if we see a female name, it is not just possible but likely that, that person is trans. Nowadays when I see a female name, I don't make the same happy assumptions I used to. That said, I welcome anybody interested in computers with open arms.
Could the LLM rewrite it from scratch?
That's crazy. I'm already barely willing to pay $10/month on Github Copilot. A product I love. Best value for money.
If they pump it up to $200 (or to $20). I'll simply use crappier local model. It won't be as good. But I already own my gaming PC that can run local models, and electricity is cheap.
I'm paying 10 dollars per month on GitHub Copilot. Gives access to good enough models. Not best, but great value for money.
So, asking an 2b parameter LLM if it is conscious and it answering yes, we have no choice but to believe it?
How about ELIZA?
Slightly off topic. I had a hard time getting models to run with ollama, and I thought that my computer (32gm ram, GTX4070 12Gb vram) just couldn't do it. The I tried LM Studio and after fiddling with some settings, I got models running and quite fast. I didn't try GLM-4.7 flash but I did GLM-4.6v flash and it was amazing to see it be able to analyze all kinds of images (since it has vision support). I was simply stunned. I can't believe that a simple gaming machine can do many of the things I used cloud models for. It was absolutely strikingly good at guessing locations of photos. Even vague ones. Deducing landmarks, writings, types of traffic signs. I need to try 4.7 flash. Hopefully it can ran fast with my machine.
Do you not might ad companies tracking everything you do?
When has ublock origin browser extension ever stopped working?
On a locked down mobile OS like iOS you can use the Brave browser.
No cat and mouse game.
This seems like a fairly simple thing I would imagine. I think just sonnet would fair pretty well at this task.
Me, my wife and my mom are all using the second SE. My mom is the only one who has updated to the newest iOS. I didn't want to because I heard rumors it was slow. But I tried my mom's phone and it seems as snappy as my phone (more or less, not the fastest phone to begin with, but not slow either). So I'm going to update too.
Slightly off-topic, but stuff like this does not just happen at Apple.
When Cyberpunk 2077 came out, my wife bought it with her credit card and gifted the game to me. It was fine at first. I even managed to play through the game. However when coming back to the game a few months later (to see all the bugfixes), it was gone. I contacted the (gog) and they said it was removed due to automatic fraud detection and that the balance had been paid back to the original credit card (my wife's card, she had obviously not noticed this in her bank statement).
Point being automatic fraud detection systems can wipe out stuff you purchased even months after the fact (or in some cases lock your account)... It feels kafkaesque.
Another shoutout to Basecoat. Easy to use. Makes your website look nice. Works with any/no framework.
I really miss the phpBB forum days. Early 2000s. It's not just nostalgia. It truly was a better experience.
Are those days permanently gone? The days when actual UI/UX innovation was a thing?
I agree mostly with your sentiment. But I still think there is still some work being done. For example the Arc and Zen Browsers. I never used Arc because it is closed source. But it sure looked beautiful. And Zen I tested, but it seemed laggy. I think I might give it another go to see if some of the performance issues have been fixed.
I'm curious to why the polyfill example uses unpkg.com. It is quite unreliable and has broken sites many times.
jsdelivr.com is much more reliable (Multi-CDN, Multi-DNS). Comparison: https://www.jsdelivr.com/unpkg
I am not affiliated in anyway to jsdeliver or unpkg. I simply used to be a user on unpkg.
I have not had the same experience. I pay 10 dollars a month for GitHub Copilot, where I get to use Claude Sonnet 4.5.
I tried the same with OpenRouter and I used up 2.5 dollars in a day using Sonnet 4.5. Similar use on copilot has could maybe make me use 10% of my quota (and that's being generous for OpenRouter).
I think GitHub Copilot is way more affordable than OpenRouter.
to seize everything you ever wanted in one moment
Works with several providers (e.g. Github copilot or bring your own key).
They offer a server and an sdk, so you can build all kinds of personal tools. It's amazing.
Hopefully this doesn't happen with GitHub Copilot.
OpenCode is fantastic. They offer a server and an SDK.
This means I build amazing personal tools. GitHub Copilots low price + OpenCode is just amazing.
This sounds completely dystopian.
