Bring back usenet! It was free and distributed

The same thing is true in software engineering: an AI model is equivalent to an average programer (average with a huge standard deviation). Averigua is better than half, but still way behind the top performers

It feels like a total waste of time and I wonder if other feel the same.

One of the consequences of the LLM tsunami might be the freezing of research and development in programming languages.

Maybe we'll be stuck with J's and python forever...

It's still the best thing that happened to Python in a long time

One of the first things I removed from my Mac was the 45 gb (sic) worth of wallpaper videos.

I see a lot of people trying to run away from Anthropic "window of doom" affair lately, me myself included. What has stopped me so far is the lack of real alternative to Opus. Not even gpt5.4 comes close
