@samstart yeah, true. I like Robert Miles's videos about this topic.

@samstart to be clear, the way my friend uses it still involves him reviewing everything, at least the way I understand it. My biggest reason for not using it as extensively is security and alignment concerns.

@samstart @krille yeah, tbh I'm also somewhat sceptical, at least for now. I only use AI for asking quick questions. I rarely ask it to generate code.

@krille he's saying it's actually made his process much more efficient

@krille I'm not sure how that works. Maybe you could give Claude Code a go, though I've not tried it myself.

@krille I see. What model(s) are you using? A friend of mine who does some pretty complex HFT coding swears by Claude Code. He says he's set it up so well that he can just leave it for hours at a time and have it produce genuinely good code that he then reviews and merges.

@krille I don't use AI that much, but what I heard is that you're supposed to have projects-specific files for them, explaining how the codebase works, to to maximize productivity with them.

Who will choose digital independence?

We’ve shared a proposal with 29 EU leaders urging concrete steps toward European digital sovereignty.

On behalf of European Search Perspective — Ecosia & Qwant — we offer a path to sovereign search: a national web index, ranking system, and AI foundation.

Governments can build their own or adopt European search in public administration.

The choice is now.

I have now moved my biggest open source project (my website for sports rankings) from #GitHub to @Codeberg 🇩🇪. I encourage other Europeans to also promote the adoption of European tech 🙂

It's funny to me how much people love to point out specific issues with #LLMs, like them being unable to count the number of Rs in #strawberry until recently, almost as if people don't also have brainfarts or just make plane old stupid mistakes. If #neuralnetworks are meant to mimic how our brains work, why do we expect them to also never make mistakes, like regular computer code?

If a Klein bottle could wear pants, would it be like this or like this?

@fast_blast 😂

@fast_blast what do you do about data loss though? 😬

Implemented #Supabase Cron with my website for automated daily backups. Aaand yet again it was super tricky, as it typically goes with #selfhosting Supabase, haha. Still worth it in the end though. I also reported a bug in their repo, so hopefully that'll be fixed and the next person trying to do it won't have such a hard time.

@neurovagrant And nuclear fission is literally physics, my dude.

It's just a chain reaction of atoms splitting into smaller nuclei.

I never claimed I knew what's next, I said it was a useful technology that has already proven useful. I never gave a hint of being on the AI hype train. It's just that people like you who act as if it's completely useless are just as annoying as those who act as if AI will save humanity and bring us World peace.

@neurovagrant yet it's taken some great engineers and mathematicians decades to get here and it's already proven useful for certain tasks. You just did the exact same thing again just with "statistics" instead of "program output".

@neurovagrant when nuclear fusion finally becomes a sustainable source of energy, will you also say "it's just physics. Not much more than that"? Cause it's really easy to dismiss anything like that. We can say our own brains are "just neurons firing", but that doesn't make them any less special. Just because AI is used for bad things doesn't mean it can't also be used for good things (like nuclear fission).

@neurovagrant it really is scary, but also kinda cool in a dystopian way

@krille they're now experimenting with Default Server Recommendations: https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/115989801184595302

@krille this is great! Maybe you could even make the preselected server randomized. You could get some inspiration from how Mastodon does it with their recent update.
