Those who don’t use Firefox should.

Not as severe, usually.

I’ve had numerous Ryzens, with 0 issues.

Fewer Epics, but no issues either.

What issues are you having?

Who, my good friend, fucking WHO still buys Intel for the servers? It sucks so hard, I don’t get it.

LLMentalist

You can decrypt old messages on Matrix, in some cases.

It would be, until I’ve seen millenials do the exact same thing.

Yeah, but the image seems pretty spot on, and that’s what you replied to.

What is accurate then?

There are many interesting AI applications, LLM or otherwise, but I’m talking about the IT bubble, that grows so big it will finally consume the industry. If it ever pops, the correction will not be pretty. For anyone.

I evaded the BS for now, but it feels like I won’t be able to hide much longer. And it saddens me. I used to love IT :(

But that won’t happen, since the bubble rose on promises of gorillions of returns, and those have not manifested yet.

We are so fucking stupid, I hate this timeline.

It’s a bit fucking expensive for a grammar tool.

I get that it gets logarithmically more expensive for every last bit of grammar, and some languages have very ridiculous nonsensical rules.

But I wish it had some broader use, that would justify its cost.

Surprise surprise, most of us have no use for LLMs.

And yet everyone and their gradma is using it for everything.

People asked GPT who would the next pope be.

Or which car to buy.

Or what’s a good local salary.

I’m so fucking tired of all the shit.

What is your definition of reasoning?

It’s not shoving AI slop into it again to get a new AI slop? Until it stops, because it reached the point where it’s just done?

What ancient wizzardry do you use for your reasoning at home if not that?

But like look, we’ve had shit like this since forever, it’s increasingly obvious that most people will cheer for anything, so the new ideas just get bigger and bigger. Can’t wait for the replacement, I dare not even think about what’s next. But for the love of fuck, don’t let it be quantums. Please, I beg the world.

They chose their horse on this

Wow, do I have some stories for you.

But in short, there’s a lot of FOSS software that people use every day without knowing about it.

And it gets no funding, because why it should.

Companies making 9+ figures have issues sending even a $1000 to an open project that they depend heavily on.

But Microsoft/Oracle/VMWare/Google licenses? That money just shoots out like from a cannon.

Even if those products are not 100% needed and can be replaced.

These days?

You mean like this century?

Specifically Google and Adobe have always been abusing their position. I’m not sure what exactly has ever changed, apart from them getting bigger and more brazen, but they have always been bad ethically.

What? What kind of raw deals do you guys get?

In Europe I could always return the Windows licence and get over 100€ back.

It’s LLMentalist time again!

Because many cities are already draining aquifers which aren’t being replenished due to the lower rains and higher demand, and once those are gone, both servers and people will be absolutely fucked?
